Love, Bonito co-founder Rachel Lim is marrying interior designer Leonard Lee next month. She talks about her wedding plans.
How did you meet and was it love at first sight?
RACHEL: In church. While I wouldn’t say it was love at first sight, it was definitely attraction at first sight!
LEO: Honestly, I don’t think it’s possible to fall in love at first sight. It starts with an attraction that makes you want to know the person more.
What do you guys love about each other?
RACHEL: We are very different. I tend to be very spontaneous, excitable, energetic, and a bit on the extreme side. Leo is so calm, it’s very hard to rock his boat. Even if the world were to crumble, he’d probably be very calm. When I have problems and go to him, he is the peace I need. He is very unfrazzled and anchors me. I think that’s very important.
He helps me calm down and talk through the issues and problems I have at hand in a very systematic way. And then I’d realise that the problems weren’t as big as I’d thought.
LEO: Rachel brings a lot of vibrancy to my life. It’s like we complement each other perfectly. I don’t show my emotions easily and openly,but she has helped make me become more expressive. She is the light in my life!
RACHEL: I bring a lot of joy and light into his life, and he brings a lot of stability and calmness into my life.
When did he propose?
RACHEL: Last October; after we’d been dating for three years.
LEO: It didn’t go as planned at all. Rachel is very inquisitive. She spoils her own surprises! It happened in New York. I’d planned where I wanted to propose, and then thought I’d better have some back-ups because of how Rachel is.
