Charming flower bouquets adorned the Ya Kun Kaya Toast outlet, while the staff continued to operate the counter.

The décor featured a beautiful bouquet of sunflowers, roses, and other flowers alongside two wedding rings, symbolizing the love and commitment of the couple.

In the video, the ceremony commenced with the bride and groom walking down the aisle hand-in-hand.

In front of the officiator, they exchanged rings, sealing their vows in front of the guests, who were seated at tables and chairs typically reserved for the eatery’s patrons.

The Ya Kun Kaya Toast outlet exuded an old-fashioned charm with its low-hanging fans and warm, yellow-hued lighting, reminiscent of coffee shops from days gone by.

The newlyweds seized the opportunity to have a photoshoot within the outlet, capturing the essence of their unique celebration.

The couple’s excitement and happiness were evident as they posed for the camera.

One of the standout features of this extraordinary celebration was the food.

Instead of the usual wedding banquet, the couple opted to serve the eatery’s iconic kaya toast, which delighted their guests.

Staff at the outlet ensured that everyone had a hot beverage and a plate of this traditional delight.

Additionally, for those who preferred something cooler in the warm weather, there were iced drinks as well.

Notably, the TikTok video shows that the bride and groom themselves took part in serving their guests, holding up plates of kaya toast for the camera.
