If you're planning a Singapore wedding and have chosen specific overseas creative vendors, here's what you need to know about the recent MOM advisory.
THE SITUATION:
Overseas wedding vendors (photographers, videographers, makeup artists, etc.) need proper work permits to work in Singapore. No current visa framework exists for short-term wedding creative work.
WHO'S AFFECTED:
→ International couples using Singapore as a destination
→ Expats based in Singapore
→ Local couples wanting specific overseas talent
YOUR OPTIONS:
If you've already booked overseas vendors, you're facing difficult decisions. If you're still choosing your destination, new factors need weighing.
THE REAL CHALLENGE:
This goes beyond logistics and costs; it’s about an aesthetic vision. Some couples opt for international creatives to gain unique perspectives, and that choice is completely valid.
We've created this article that acknowledges both the practical constraints and the emotional impact of potentially losing vendors you've carefully chosen.
Key sections:
✓ Options if wedding already planned
✓ Factors if still choosing destination
✓ When local alternatives don't match vision
✓ Questions to guide your decision
