Saturday December 13th was the day Ee and Terry made it publicly known that they are married.  The family celebrated with a big banquet lunch in Heng Chuen, and an after-party BBQ with live music at Baisha.  

The lunch was a classic south Taiwan wedding banquet with over 300 tables for family and friends, including a KTV singer, Taiwan Beers, and beetlenut and cigarettes at the door.

Later that night at John Boo’s Baisha dive retreat, an authentic aussie BBQ feast kept everyone happy, as did the live bands MOSS, and MILK (giving their first performance in 3 years) making sure the party went on til late!
