Love Story

Their love story is one they affectionately call "from library glances to wedding dances"—a beautiful narrative spanning “2,556 days of dating, 256 days of engagement before our wedding.”

London played a pivotal role in their journey,where they spent significant time before returning to Thailand. It was where they grew up,where their love blossomed, and where they learned to support and compromise with each other. This connection was so meaningful that they returned for their engagement photoshoot, capturing memories of the place where their relationship truly flourished.

The proposal unfolded on their 7th anniversary in June 2024 at Côte by Mauro Colagreco at Capella Bangkok. What began as an apparently disastrous evening—with a "forgotten" reservation that left Dear decidedly "hangry"—transformed when the restaurant manager offered a table in a garden by the Chao Phraya river. It was Earp's plan all along. The manager led her to an exquisite presidential villa decorated with white and green flowers and a private pool overlooking the river. By the time Earp went down on one knee, Dear's eyes were filled with tears of happiness as he promised to make her the happiest woman in the world.

"We actually produced our own wedding newspaper written and designed by ourselves to share with every guest our love story as one of the souvenirs that we put on a bed in every hotel room alongside our welcome bag."

About Your Wedding

Planning their dream wedding took nine months of careful consideration and heartfelt decisions. "We always wanted to host a wedding somewhere that we and our guests remember the experience and is unique and one of a kind," the couple explains. "Since we love the calmness of the sea and scuba divers, we decided to have our wedding by the sea. And Amora Beach Resort Phuket symbolises the Siriphatrawan Family."

Their vision was crystallized into a concept called "Pristine Allure." "Purity is beauty without flaw, an indescribable elegance," they describe. "The colour we thought would best represent purity is ivory white, which is a soft, delicate shade that exudes gentleness and tenderness. Green brings a fresh, vibrant atmosphere, creating a sense of elegant simplicity and liveliness. Accentuated with golden light from the beautiful sunset at Bangtao beach, everything gains depth and a radiant, luxurious glow."

The floral design followed this philosophy perfectly, featuring white roses and baby's breath to represent sincerity, purity, and romance. White calla lilies added sculptural elegance, while hydrangeas brought softness to the arrangements, all complemented by fresh greenery.

What inspired them most during the preparation was realizing how much they were learning about themselves as a couple. Every element of the wedding was mutually agreed upon—from the concept to trying on bridal dresses together to tailoring his groom suits. "The journey really assured us that we can spend the rest of our lives together in every way," they reflect. "That personal growth as a couple made the preparation meaningful."

Morning Details

Every detail of the wedding day was meticulously crafted with personal touches. Dear designed the wedding invitations herself, along with creating a unique wedding newspaper that told their love story.

For their wedding rings, the couple chose the Joséphine Amour d'Aigrette solitaire in platinum from Chaumet, a meaningful selection that "symbolises a romantic love story, beginning with the historical connection to Napoleon and Joséphine. The ring represents the eternal bond of a couple and offers a modern way to express eternal love through high-jewelry craftsmanship."

The bride also designed custom stationery including film cameras and customized coffee cups, ensuring every element reflected their personalities and love story.

Bride Getting Ready

Dear's bridal preparations took place in the luxurious Andaman Suite at Amora Beach Resort Phuket, surrounded by her bridesmaids and groomsmen—and notably, the groom himself, as they shared the two-bedroom suite.

For her bridal looks, Dear chose two stunning dresses, each representing different facets of her personality. Her first look came from Muse by Berta, discovered at Belle and Tulle in Singapore. "I chose musebyberta because I wanted something with a shorter hemline and flowy to match with the seaside setting so it doesn't feel too heavy, but still embodies romance and my confidence," she explains. The boho-meets-modern design perfectly captured the beachside atmosphere.

Her second look was a bespoke creation by Thai designers Patarasiri. "I wanted something that is bespoke to me and represents me as a person—elegant, bold, confident and chic," Dear shares. "So, I trusted the Patarasiri sisters, Thai designers, to create a unique, beautiful wedding dress for me." The dress was meticulously hand-crafted over eight months, ensuring it was truly one of a kind.

To complete her looks, Dear wore Rene Caovilla heels and tailor-made glittery silver block heels by Thai brand Cein. Her bouquet featured white calla lilies with long stems, decorated with ribbons and pearl strings—"a symbol of our pure love and true devotion for each other," created by florist IAMFLOWER.

The bridesmaids presented a harmonious picture in a mix of elegant green shades, each choosing their own dress. "I wanted them to pick a dress that they are confident to be in on our special day," Dear explains.

Ceremony

The ceremony itself took place on the Bangtao beachfront lawn at Amora Beach Resort Phuket, with the scenic Andaman ocean stretching before them. But this was no traditional processional—it began with joy and laughter that set the tone for the entire celebration.

"My husband and his groomsmen and groomswomen made their entrance with the 'Fireball' song from Pitbull & John Ryan and their dance steps that they must have secretly practised," Dear recalls with delight. This was followed by her bridesmaids and bridesmen walking in to Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" in their mix of green-shade outfits, carrying white roses with white bows.

Then came Dear's entrance to the classic strains of Pachelbel's Canon in D, walking down the aisle herself. "Seeing my husband waiting at the altar and eyes locked on me made my heart beat very quickly. I was also touched to see so many of our beloved friends and families’ smiles, congratulating us through their eyes. We were very grateful to see many friends flying to Phuket from many corners of the world."

The ceremony was deliberately kept intimate and modern, focusing on what mattered most to the couple: their vows. And these vows became the most unforgettable moment of the day. "I started the wedding vow first as I knew that I'm more emotional than my husband, and yes, halfway through my vow, I started crying with tears of joy," Dear remembers. "I paused, and when I looked up from my vow book, I saw my husband starting to cry. What was even more surprising was when it was his turn, he couldn’t stop crying. He perhaps started his vow again and again a few times. That moment I felt his overwhelming love for me and really flashed me back to many beautiful memories throughout our 8 years together before this wedding day. "

The emotion was contagious. "When I turned back to ask my bridesmaids for a piece of tissue, I couldn't help myself but cry as they were also crying. We ended up passing around pieces of tissue to everyone at the ceremony. The ceremony was filled with warmth, happy tears, and love."

Many of their friends later joked that this was the wedding at which they cried the most—a testament to the genuine love and emotion that filled every moment.

Photoshoot After The Ceremony

Following the ceremony, the couple took advantage of the golden hour light for photos around their cocktail area by Bangtao beach. The setting sun cast everything in a warm, romantic glow—exactly as they had envisioned when choosing their "Pristine Allure" concept.

The cocktail hour itself was held in a private area on the beach, giving the newlyweds time to connect with each guest while enjoying the picturesque sunset. They prepared champagne glasses with customized golden cards, each bearing a guest's name, for everyone to raise in celebration. Adding an artistic touch, live painting artist Britney Myisha created fashion sketches for guests—a unique memento of the celebration.

Wedding Venue & Decor

The venue choice held deep significance for the couple. "We chose Amora Beach Resort Phuket as it best symbolises the groom's family as Siriphatrawan family," they explain. The resort provided not just a stunning location but a meaningful connection to Earp's heritage.

The color palette of ivory white, muddy green, and lunar green created an atmosphere of sophisticated serenity. White roses and baby's breath formed the foundation of the floral arrangements, with white calla lilies adding sculptural drama and hydrangeas bringing soft, rounded textures. The combination of white florals with green created exactly the fresh, vibrant atmosphere they sought.

Personal touches abounded throughout the venue. The couple created a "favourite people board" displaying the reception seating arrangements, but what made it special were the personalized messages handwritten by Dear and Earp for each guest. "We created this board as we wanted to personally thank every one of our beloved guests for coming to celebrate with us," they share.

Reception

As daylight faded, the reception space transformed into something magical. The same lawn that had hosted the ceremony became "a glowing garden of elegance," brought to life through the collaboration of their wedding planner's creative designer and florist. Candlelight and crystal chandeliers took over from the sunset, creating an ambiance of intimacy and celebration.

The couple's first dance to Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" was choreographed by a local dancing instructor and became a moment of pure joy. "We loved the dance and had so much fun that we were dancing and laughing at the same time," they remember. "We promised each other that we will dance this song every year on our wedding anniversary as a reminder of these moments and feelings on our wedding day."

The culinary experience was equally personal, with all the food co-designed by Amora Hotels and Resorts Group's Executive Chef (who flew over from Australia) and the couple themselves. The selections reflected their favorites, including the main course of seared toothfish—Earp's favorite dish.

The evening culminated with a celebration featuring a one-meter diameter vanilla British Victoria sponge cake with fresh berries, created by Amora Beach Resort Phuket, followed by a spectacular firework display to mark the beginning of their marriage journey.

But the celebration didn't end there. The day after the wedding, they hosted a white brunch party at Nora Beach Club—"a light and lovely way to wrap up the weekend with our favorite people."

"All vendors were very professional, and I highly recommend any future couples who wish to have their wedding in Phuket to reach out to them," the bride enthuses.

From library glances to wedding dances, from London memories to Phuket promises, Suphasuta and Earp's wedding was a celebration of love that had grown, deepened, and matured over almost eight years. Every tear shed, every laugh shared, and every detail carefully chosen reflected not just a single day, but a lifetime of love beginning.
