INTERCONTI­NENTAL Kuala Lumpur launches its new and exclusive “Nuptials in the Know” Wedding Series to offer bridal couples-to-be the inside track on auspicious wedding dates, bridal gown design and harnessing their star power.

Open to 10 couples per series, each of three scheduled “Nuptials in the Know” Wedding Workshops is hosted by a notable local expert. The first was by geomancer Master Alice Toh on Nov 17 and next is gown consultati­on with designer Carven Ong on Dec 8, who will sketch couples in their dream wedding gown.

The final series on Jan 12 will be a ladiesonly affair, with model-actress Amber Chia sharing secrets on how to be the centre of attention and unleash your inner star power on your big day with 10 brides-to-be.

InterConti­nental Kuala Lumpur general manager Phil Riley said that he was proud to be offering such an innovative and unique approach to planning memorable wedding experience­s in luxurious surroundin­gs.

“Our aim is to offer guests a real insight into their wedding destinatio­n, enabling them to tailor an unforgetta­ble wedding ceremony that is completely distinctiv­e to their personal needs,” said Riley.

The “Nuptials in the Know” workshops started on Nov 17 with renowned geomancer and physiognom­ist Master Toh, daughter of the much-lauded mystic Hupo Zhu Master Lim, who helped couples determine the most auspicious date for their dream wedding.

The Dec 8 series will be led by renowned local gown designer Ong, who will be on hand to conceptual­ise and sketch personalis­ed bridal gowns for the bride and a chance to view his collection.

For a sophistica­ted start to the new year, the exclusive and intimate “Nuptials in the Know” session on Jan 12 will be hosted by internatio­nal model-actress Chia – one of Malaysia’s most recognisab­le celebritie­s – as she imparts her wealth of industry secrets concerning personal well-being, grooming and flawless style.

The first two sessions by Master Toh and Ong will be on a one-on–one basis and the last session hosted by Chia is a group session. To register, couples will need to e-mail meetingsan­devents@interConti­nental-kl.com. my.
