Actor Daniel Wu marries long-time girlfriend in South Africa wedding

Yes it is true. The handsome Hong Kong actor is now a married man. Congratulations to Daniel and his Mrs on a long and lasting marriage!!!

HONG KONG: Hong Kong actor Daniel Wu announced on his blog on Saturday that he had tied the knot with girlfriend of eight years, Monaco-born model and Channel V veejay Lisa Selesner on April 6 in a wedding ceremony held in South Africa.

The wedding, attended by just 30 of the couple's family and friends, saw the pair walking to a forest clearing, near a mud hut Selesner, better known as Lisa S, reportedly owned, wearing traditional African cloaks and headdress, before going through a ceremony officiated by an African priestess.

The couple then knelt and exchanged rings in Western wedding attire after taking off their traditional garb. Wu was dressed in a coffee-coloured suit while Selesner, 30, wore an elegant cream-coloured shoulder-less wedding gown.

"This is the place where I fell in love with Lisa, so we decided to hold our wedding here, a place which holds a special meaning for us," Wu told Hong Kong media.

"When we first knew each other, I always heard her (Selesner) say she wanted to go to South Africa and felt it was strange as she said the mud hut had no electricity. When I went with her [to the mud hut] for the first time, we stayed for a month and I found that I liked her. If we can live together for a month, I can stay with her long term."

Wu has indeed managed to stay with Selesner for quite awhile. They first met at a party in 2002 and then started going out three months later before deciding to live together in 2005.

The couple claimed they had a very smooth relationship, only having six fights in their eight-year relationship and never over rumours about Wu and other women in the papers.

"I don't ask about it and don't wish to know. Luckily, our (Wu and herself) Mandarin is quite poor, so we don't read the gossip columns in the newspapers. We also understand that a lot of it is just for publicity," she said.

Wu popped the question in October last year, though not in the traditional sense. The 35-year-old actor revealed that they were talking about having children before he realised what they had to do first, and blurted out what was on his mind.

"Shouldn't we get married first? Then should I propose on bended knee?" Wu said at the time.

Selesner admitted that while the "Shinjuku Incident" star was the one who popped the question, she was the one who pursued him in the beginning.

The veejay first introduced herself to Wu at a party where they first met and also asked him out on movie dates after working with him on a magazine shoot.

The pair has revealed that they will be holding a large-scale party to celebrate their union at a later date in Hong Kong.

Fann Wong and Christopher Lee's "wedding of the year"


SINGAPORE : It has been heralded as “The Wedding of the Year” and Tuesday night marks the big night for local celebrity couple, Fann Wong and Christopher Lee. The couple, who said their "I do's" in a simple ceremony at the presidential suite of the Shangri-La Hotel on May 16 this year, will hold their wedding banquet at the same hotel on Tuesday. And if you have not been invited like the rest of the world, fret not, for MediaCorp will broadcast the dinner banquet live from 8pm on Channel 8.

The lovebirds have spared no expense - they had their bridal shoot in Maldives and the much-anticipated wedding is estimated to cost S$5 million. While this amount may prove to be too extravagant for most mere mortals, being famous does have its perks.

On top of her Vera Wang bridal gown, Wong has a Bollywood-inspired bejewelled gown specially designed for her by Bally, worth S$300,000. Her wedding bling which consists of three collections of self-designed bridal jewellery sponsored by Celestial® by Goldheart, are worth about S$2.5 million. The collections include a headpiece, diamond drop earrings, bangles and a bracelet, but the highlight has to be the sparkling 60-carat diamond necklace where each diamond is supposed to represent the different milestones of the couple's courtship

The groom is not left out either as Lee has his own collection consisting of a diamond ear stud and ring and will be suited up by Italian label Ermenegildo Zegna.

Lee had previously mentioned that he wanted to give Wong “the best wedding ever” and took care of details like the wedding invitations and the banquet himself. With around 90 tables for guests, the banquet is expected to cost around S$110,000. And that's not all. The couple will hold another wedding dinner for Lee's friends and family in his hometown of Malacca on October 11.







In this photo, the groom was made by the bridesmaids to finish five packets of curry rice in five minutes. Looks like he had a lot of trouble keeping the curry rice down :-)
