The best time for this was when Chen Lihua styling was closer to being finished, therefore making more flattering photos. And it also gave the photographer more than enough time to capture the details - bridal dress, bridesmaid's dresses, flower girls dresses, shoes jewelry.
But more time was spent on capturing the bridal items because Chen Lihua was the queen of the day.
While the hustle and bustle in the room were ongoing, emotional interactions between the bride, her bridesmaids, and relatives weren't left out.
The little girls from the orphanage had already arrived with One of Chen Lihua's female cousins.
And immediately they arrived, their hair and makeup were done, and they were immediately clothed.
Little Cherry (Huiling's first daughter) and Anna (Liu Dongmei's daughter) were part of the flower girls, while Little Apple (Liu Huiling's second daughter) was the little bride. So they three pretty little girls also got dressed in their uniforms.
While Chen Lihua was still being made up, Liu Dongmei spoke on the phone for a few minutes before passing it to Chen Lihua.
"It is a mother."
Chen Lihua nodded and took the phone before saying into the phone with a happy smile plastered on her face, "Mother..."
The two spoke for a few minutes, and Chen Lihua had a smile throughout their conversation. Chen Lihua seemed to be very happy.
When Chen Lihua was done with her makeup, Lady Chen called, and she spoke with her for a while.
Then after the call, she took a selfie before touching a few places on her phone screen. It seems like her mother asked her to send a picture of her looks to her.
After some time, Chen Lihua was done with her makeup and hair. It was now time for her to get into her wedding dress, which Delmas Andrien's female underlings assisted her with.
And after she was dressed in her 1000 Swarovski crystallized wedding gown, her veil was personally secured by Delmas.
Liu Huiling brought her shoes for her, and when Chen Lihua tried taking it from her, Liu Huiling withheld it. Then with a smile plastered on her face, she turned the shoes so that the red soles were now facing Chen Lihua.
Chen Lihua saw some engravings on them, and so felt surprised as she asked her to bring the shoes closer, so she could take a closer look at it.
When the shoe was brought closer to her, Chen Lihua was now able to have a better look at the engravings.
It read, 'My beloved wife, Mrs. Liu,' on the right shoe, while the left shoe had their Wedding date on it, '**, Sept, 20**'.
Chen Lihua smiled as she read the words aloud before turning to say, "I can't believe we thought of the same thing."
"You wrote something on his shoe as well?" Liu Dongmei asked with brightly lit eyes.
Chen Lihua nodded in response.
Liu Dongmei gave her a thumbs up ????.
Meanwhile, Liu Longwei was on the other side, looking at the inscriptions Chen Lihua carved at the bottom of his shoes and on his handkerchief.
'My darling Husband, Mr. Liu' was written on the left foot, while, their wedding date was carved on the right shoe.
As for the handkerchief, it contained some short, sweet words, with a red love emoji imprinted on it.
Liu Longwei's friends made funny noises as they teased him. As for Liu Liwei, his best man, he was fixing his cufflinks and looking ready to charm the ladies.
Liu Longwei had a brilliant smile on his face as he revealed to them, "She engraved our initials on the wedding rings. Do you know the unexpected thing?"
All of them shook their head in a negative affirmation while waiting expectantly for his response.
But unfortunately for them, Liu Longwei spat these words out, "Find out yourself," and watched them groan in the grievance.
Delmas urges Chen Lihua to put her shoes on, after snatching it from her hands.
"We don't have a lot of time on our side. When you meet your husband, you can get emotionally all you want," Delmas said.
After helping her with her shoes, he picked up her crown and secured it on her head.
The only jewelry Chen Lihua had on her were her simple but very expensive diamond-studded earrings.
Chen Lihua looked absolutely breath-taking in that dress. She looked like a queen, about to ascend her throne.
As she took her first step in her shoes, she felt as if she was floating in the clouds. The cameras rolled as she took light steps. Her friends and family were happy for her as they cheered her on.
As Chen Lihua made an attempt to step outside of the room, her phone made a 'ding' sound, which signified that she just received an SMS. So she opened it immediately.
The message was from Liu Longwei, and the content of the message made her blush.
And when she was asked, what happened, she only revealed that the message was from Liu Longwei and nothing more.
Angel, as the Chief bridesmaid, helped her put her phone in her wedding clutch, and carried it for her. While Angel handed her a white feathered hand fan.
And with graceful steps, Chen Lihua left the room with her entourage.
Next in line was the pre-ceremony photos of the bride with her bridal train. While Liu Longwei, the groom, also took pictures with his entourage, before leaving for the church in high definition.
Chen Lihua felt so happy while taking pictures with her bouquet of imported expensive red roses. Sometimes, she pouted her lips that was shaded with red lipstick, while posing for the camera.
Since she has a lot of experience in modeling, it was easy for her to strike elegant poses, and look good on camera, so the pictures came out fine.
But when it was time to leave for the church, she became so nervous that her heart skipped a beat.
She sat at the back passenger seat of the Karlmann King, with a chauffeur and a bodyguard in front.
Angel was supposed to sit with her, but Delmas complained that he was the wedding dress designer, and so he should sit with Chen Lihua in case the dress had a problem.
What kind of silly excuse is that? ????????
