After guests walked the red carpet, the journey continued inside the ballroom, which was decorated like a luxurious safari tent with “windows” onto picturesque, dramatic landscapes. Television personality Sean Lee-Davies and Edipresse Media Asia’s chief creative officer, Sean Fitzpatrick, both dressed in Ermenegildo Zegna, acted as emcee’s. They kicked off the night with a showcase of the guests’ favourite holiday photos, which guests submitted prior to the ball. Some of the highlights included Matthew and Lianne Lam with their son Edward on their Crystal Cruise in Alaska, Monica Wong’s trip to Iran and Stephen and Deborah Hung’s last minute excursion to Petra, Jordan.
