Back in August, one of our friends Perpetua George tied the knot with Oliver Cumbus in a memorable wedding at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. The wedding dinner in particular was a beautiful one, taking place on the soft sandy beaches of ShangRi-La’s Rasa Ria Resort, showered by the golden rays of the evening sunset.

Although we couldn’t be there personally, “Pep” was kind enough to grace her wedding with these one-of-a-kind handmade fans produced by the Tagbanuang Tandulanon indigenous community from the Philippines. The making of the fans is an on-going craft development project to raise the income of the local women artisans in an environmentally-friendly and sustainably-harvested manner.

All of us at Elevyn would like to wish Pep and Olly all the best in their new life together!
