Crafting refined, meaningful weddings across Hong Kong and destinations worldwide.

A luxury wedding design and creative direction studio for couples who value timeless style, thoughtful storytelling and beautifully curated experiences.

 

 

Our Philosophy

Your love story is one of a kind and there will never be another one in the world.

Every love story is singular. At AF Atelier, we believe a wedding should feel like a work of art—purposeful, emotional, and deeply personal.

From the first sketch to the final candlelit moment, we design celebrations with intention, sensitivity and artistry, honouring your story as much as the architecture and landscape surrounding it.

Based in Hong Kong and designing across Italy, France, Japan and beyond, we create weddings where elegance and meaning live in perfect harmony.

We are here to celebrate life, and we are here to tell your story.

 

Our Commitment

As your Hong Kong wedding designer, our role is to translate your story into an atmosphere—one that feels intentional, beautiful and deeply personal. We craft celebrations that go beyond aesthetics, shaping moments that stay with you and your loved ones long after the day has passed.

Our work begins with understanding who you are: your history, your sensibilities, and the emotion you hope your guests will remember. Every detail matters — from palette to paper, tablescape to florals, typography to glassware — because it is the harmony of these elements that creates the overall mood.

We collaborate closely with your creative partners and vendors to ensure the design is cohesive and aligned with the tone you envision. Every partner understands your story, and every detail reflects it.

As a boutique studio, we accept only a select number of commissions each year across Hong Kong and global destinations. This allows us to offer a deeply personalised experience, grounded in thoughtful attention, creativity and excellence.

 

What Design Really Means

Design is not decoration.

It is a complete visual and emotional system—where colour, texture, typography, florals, lighting and even a single place card work together to shape the atmosphere.

When these elements are curated with intention, they create the harmony and beauty that define an unforgettable celebration.

Meet Alison, your Luxury Wedding Designer.

Founder/ Creative Director

Like a lot of Asian kids, I joined banking upon leaving college and worked as a sales on the bank’s trading floor for a decade. My banking experience has honed my skills in efficiency, quality, and client experience. Quality and efficiency remain core values at AF Atelier.

Outside of work, I am an avid lover of good food, travelling, musicals & operas, languages, Impressionism arts and Chinese Calligraphy too! Even though I was an Economics major at UofChicago, my fondest college memory was in Vienna studying Western European Civilization. I had also furthered my studies in Interior Styling from Chelsea College of Arts.

Influenced by European and Chinese art, my aesthetics is defined by elegance, artistry, and a sense of effortless refinement.

 
 
 

How and Why AF Atelier was created

When planning my own wedding, I realised that many celebrations looked beautiful, yet lacked soul, coherence and emotional intention.

I wanted to make sure mine was authentic as well as enjoyable for everyone, so I started to craft my very own dream event. However, the lack of options and design shops have made this journey rather difficult. I then decided to look into my all-time favorite things for inspirations and that began my wedding planning journey.

I have always loved European arts & culture and hence my husband proposed in Vienna, and we decided to wed at Lake Como. We incorporated the proposal venue into our wedding logo, sent all guests a hand-drawn Lake Como map with famous landmarks, booked a boat tour for guests , hired a gelato cart during cocktail session, as well as organized fireworks to end the night. Most important of all, we made sure we could spend time to talk to every guest. A lot of them said it was the best and most memorable wedding they have been to.

AF Atelier was born from a desire to change that—to craft weddings that feel intimate, elevated and meaningful, where every detail has purpose.

Today, that vision has taken us from Hong Kong to Tuscany, Paris, Kyoto, and beyond.

Our work is humbled and honored to be seen on international wedding blogs like Style Me Pretty, Wedding Sparrow, Carats & Cake and many more.

AF’s aesthetics direction has a flair for sophistication, elegance and romance, and draws inspirations from a combination of delicate and feminine elements. The designs are appealing to the senses and remain timeless in the years to come.

“A wedding, to me, is not an event—it is a story shaped through design.”

 

Our Approach

As a boutique luxury wedding design studio in Hong Kong, we offer a highly specialised creative process tailored to each couple.

Art-led design
Every celebration begins with a clear creative direction — concept, palette, narrative, materials.

Place-inspired
Architecture, landscape and light guide our design choices, ensuring the celebration feels native to the setting. This philosophy guides our work from Hong Kong to Tuscany, Lake Como and other sought-after destinations.

Holistic curation
From florals to stationery, linens to lighting, every detail is considered as part of one cohesive visual language.

 
Alison was the heart and soul behind this wedding, transforming every idea and detail into a truly unforgettable celebration that reflected our personalities and tastes.”
