Congratulations to Crocmedia Singapore team member Ana Ismali and new husband Leonard as they tied the knot last week in an intimate Muslim solemnisation ceremony.

In Singapore, there are three main ethnic groups: Chinese, Malay and Indian. Ana and Leonard are a truly cross-ethnic partnership as he is Chinese and Ana has a Chinese, Indian and Malay parentage.

Their special day consisted of an intimate Muslim solemnisation ceremony at Ana´s eldest Aunt´s home, with a small reception for about 150 people (normally, Malay-Muslim weddings invite up to 3,000 guests).

The bridal couple sits on the dais, like royalty dressed in their finery (Ana is wearing a "kebaya" and Leonard must wears cap called a "songkok") for friends and family to take photos.
