Him Law Hopes to Marry by Age 35
Marriage is on the mind of Him Law (羅仲謙)! The Tiger Cubs <飛虎> star, who will be turning 29 in August, has recently expressed his hopes to marry and start a family by the time he turns 35 years old. With Him currently dating Tavia Yeung (楊怡), is she the bride he has in mind?
Him and fellow Filmko artist, Cici Zhang (張予曦), were hired to be this season’s new spokespeople for the Mona Lisa Bridal Salon. The young onscreen couple has been touring around the culturally diverse Hong Kong to take their stylish wedding photos for the Wedding Magazine, Hong Kong’s top publication on wedding fashion.
As a senior in the industry, Him has been very attentive to junior Cici, who just debuted as a model in Hong Kong last year. Him taught Cici how to position herself before the cameras and had a long conversation with her about photography and filming.
Him admitted that he hopes to marry and start a family by the time he turns 35. Having grown up in a traditional household himself, Him expressed his hopes to wed in a church ceremony and insisted to have a traditional Chinese marriage as well. “I would love my wife to dress up in a cheongsam. I think women are the most beautiful if they are wearing one. I will be very happy to wear a changshan and a round hat to match!”
The fit star also added that he finds women with long, curly hair attractive. Him looks forward to being a father, and said, “If my wife is delivering, I will definitely accompany her to the delivery room to give her my utmost support!”
Generation Y model Cici, on the other hand, expressed that she is still too young to think about marriage. “When the time comes, I want it to be simple, with only my family and closest friends attending [the wedding]. I’m still too young to think about marriage, but I do enjoy that exciting feeling of dating. If I meet my dream man, I will enjoy dating life first!” What does she look in her boyfriend? “I don’t need him to be handsome – just hardworking and caring.”

All the best to HimHim and hopefully Tavia as well!
Can’t deny that HimHim is looking dashing nowadays and Tavia..hmmm, I once love the way she looks but not anymore. I once dislike ppl making fun of her nose but ishhh it’s hard not to notice her nose nowadays!!
But still hope that they will have sweet ending 🙂
HimHim still young and good looking with a bright future, Tavia should really grab hard to him, else he’ll get snatch away!
Gals nowadays are ishhh speechless!!
Just look at news from Eric’s Tsang daughter in law.. YUCKS!!! Eye-ing for the rich!!
Maybe by next year Tavia and Him will break up and maybe Him will marry someone else… We will never know ppl. Stop assuming.
That going be 6 years time, Tavia now 33 means 39.
I think his goal is to be start his own family and be married by 35… It means that wedding bells are in these next few years.. It doesn’t necessarily mean he’s going to marry in 6 years.
can’t imagine how old tavia will look like at 39 when him is 35 and is at prime age of males.
By aged 35- meaning within these few years? I dont think he’s going to hit 35 and suddenly be like, “oh times up! Gotta get married tomorrow.” lol
I’m available Him!! Marry me! Drop that old hag.
got a picture. let’s see whether you’re ok or not.
I think it’d be better for Him to marry an old hag with a good heart rather than marry someone with an unattractive, shameless attitude/personality.
Lol burn!
hope him him n tavia last.
He did advertisements for another company?
That’s sort of hypocritical. He already did one with JJ Jia for France Bridal. It’s like supporting a rival company. And I think the France Bridal photos are better. Especially Candy and Nathan’s. http://www.francebridal.com/cht/celebrity-gallery/dummy.php
Really! One of the photos is black and white, which looks weird because they are sort of modern in that photo. And the one with the brush is blurry.
http://www.monalisa.com.hk/cht/celebrity-gallery/cici_him.php#
Btw, i was looking at your link, and suddenly karena resembled charlene choi. Was that resemblance due to the airbrushing?
http://www.monalisa.com.hk/images/celebrity/album2/9.jpg
It turns out more than one is black and white. But the one I’m talking about is my least favourite.
I think in some photos Karena resembles Charlene, but not the one in the link.
But I agree that she looks different. Sometimes I slightly see Charlene.
Well advertisement company’s do pay big bucks in comparison to artists’ peanut wages for acting. Hypocritical or not, if advertisement companies approaches him and his manager+mother company approves, then I don’t see why he would reject just because the two bridal companies are ‘rivals’. It may be unusual and weird on the bridal companies part in asking Him to advertise for both, but it doesn’t seem like it’d be any disadvantage for him lol.
But I have to say, Him does make a good-looking groom if you ask me lol. Photos from both bridal company adverts look pretty awesome!
And by then Tavia will how old?? Unless he doesn’t think of marrying Tavia…
So what you’re saying is that it’s wrong for ‘old’ people to get married?
Nah, just saying wouldn’t they want kids? Biological clock is ticking…
Tavia is too god for him
not with tavia thanks
Is Him Christian? I don’t know about traditional weddings, but would it be considered ‘acceptable’ or common for couples to walk down the church aisle (even if they are not Christian), yet also carry out traditional Chinese wedding customs? Just curious.
I think it’s all about preferences.
If you want to marry in a churh by a pastor or priest, I am sure you need to be a member of that churh and baptised. As for traditional customs, there is no problem with being a christian and kneeling down to honour your parents with a cup of tea and ang pows. So I see no problem. Chinese are traditions, wedding in a church is religion or of course to many, a fad.
“If you want to marry in a churh by a pastor or priest, I am sure you need to be a member of that churh and baptised”
That’s not true, at least in Canada! My friend married her best friend in another church. My pastor married his finance in another church. Both of these friends of mine married in the same church but they were not members of that church.
fiancee*
Thanks for the info guys.
I just thought i’d be considered ‘unreasonable’ if the couple weren’t Christian yet they plan to walk down a church aisle for their wedding. Afterall, going to Church and even walking down the church aisle would be considered a religious practice/custom, right? But I guess nowadays choosing to walk down the church aisle in somewhat fashionable and is not strongly regarded as a religious thing.
You are wrong, Funn Lim. The church allows non-christians to marry in a church as long as you pay them money. Many chinese people are now more willing to pay because it is more fashionable to marry in a church. Even the ones that do not want to pay, they still marry in their own selected place as though they are in a church, and the customs are exactly the same like marrying in a church, such as exchanging rings and saying “I do” even though they do not marry in a church. It is all about fashion, after all. There is no such thing as being a member of the church in order to marry in a church.
Hmm I think Funn is right about baptism. If memory serves me right, I think one needs to be a baptized Catholic to marry in a Catholic Church. One would have to go through weeks of a course and then get baptized before marrying in the church. Non Catholics who are marrying Catholics have to be baptized. If both are non Catholics, they would both have to go through the course and be baptized first.
I’m not sure about Christian churches, but if Funn meant being a member of a church as in to be a baptized Catholic then she is probably right.
Also, my relatives all had church weddings and traditional tea ceremonies afterwards.
By the way, I agree with Wilma that it is all about preferences. Do you know that some people also marry on a beach wearing a swimsuit? Therefore, I think it is up to people what kind of style they want.
Again you are wrong. There is such a thing, at least be baptised before married in a church, I am however not sure if BOTH spouse needs to be baptised or of the same fate. Like you rightly pointed out, nowadays commercialism has taken over. Doesn’t mean it is practised everywhere. So am I wrong? No.
I wonder, will catholic church allow a wedding between non-christians or at least one is not a catholic to marry in a catholic church by a catholic priest?
And I found my answer.
http://catholicism.about.com/od/catholicliving/f/FAQ_Marriage.htm
I see, the min requirement is baptised christian, need not be catholic.
For others, I think perhaps one of you need be baptised I suppose. Anyway why make a vow in a place you do not believe in?
Ooh sorry, not weeks, but rather it would be 127 hours of the course over 59 weeks.
Siying,
Oh, really? Then I think whether non-christians can marry in a church or not depends on which country. After all, things change as time changes.
Wow baptized Christian is the min, requirement?
All along growing up, we were made to believe that they had to be baptized Catholics, that’s why we got so many people going for the courses since one partner was usually Catholic.
Thanks for the info Funn, I think some of my friends still do not know about it. I have to go tell them.
@galaxy,
Yea things changes with time, I’m not sure about Christian churches though, but for Catholics the churches follow the same rules and liturgical books worldwide, so I think regardless of which country they would follow the same rules.
I mean, one can attend mass(service) in Rome and another person somewhere else in the world on the same weekend, and both would have the same texts. Every Catholic Church in the world provides the same reading, same texts. Eg. 2nd Sunday of Lent and the text would be standardized worldwide.
Funn Lim,
And how you know EVERY CHURCH wants EVERYONE to meet the requirements? Do you know that many churches just provide the marriage service even though both spouses are not baptised? Just because the church says one of them needs to be baptised does not mean it is practiced provided that nobody knows. You are really naive if you just believe what the church wants you to see rather than look at the hidden fact.
I agree with you about this, though:
“Anyway why make a vow in a place you do not believe in?”
Siying,
As I said, things change as time changes. What you said regarding Catholics is the current state of affairs. Nobody knows what happens in 10000000000 years from now.
Actually, marrying in a church is a fashion in the Asian community, and many of them who are not christians that want to marry in a church become christians first and then quit becoming christians immediately after marriage. We are really creative when it comes to this.
Yea, the only thing static in this world is change itself. Change is the only thing that never changes.
galaxy, you mean you know EVERY CHURCH does not have that requirement?
I am not naive. I am stating the requirements. As with every organisation in the world, some requirements can be bent for monetary purposes. BUT not every organisation. Please leave sarcasm to yourself.
“many of them who are not christians that want to marry in a church become christians first and then quit becoming christians immediately after marriage.”
Which is what I am saying to galaxy whose mind probably is galaxy away when reading what I am saying. Maybe galaxy things requirement means you really have to accept Jesus in your life.
It is alright Funn, I don’t know what sort of churches galaxy is referring to actually.
Well, a church which does not require both to be baptized (whether as Christian/Catholic) and allowed to be married in there is definitely not a Catholic one cos there’s a Baptism certificate that one needs to provide if they want to marry in a Catholic Church anywhere in the world.
A church that has services like marrying apeople who are non Christians, just for the sake of money as galaxy said, in my opinion, should not really be considered a church since Baptism and Marriage are Sacraments which are part of the faith. How can a church offer a service like it is a post office, to just walk in and get the job done?
Worse yet, a church who states that there is requirement of baptism but if nobody knows and they bend the rules, i think people should stop going to such so called churches. It would be morally corrupt of such a church to do such a thing. If it can be called a church in the first place.
Every church/catholic church runs differently though. Thus, the way they do things (eg. marriage) will also be different.
And to add on, the pastor who annouces them husband and wife needs to certificated in wedding or be a certain level.
Can we get married in a church if we aren’t members?
http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/can-we-get-married-in-a-church-if-we-arent-members
agree…you don’t have to be Christian in order to marry in Church….some church let you rent the place…if you are Christina and the member of that church…you don’t have to pay…that is what happen in US
The link answered a few questions;
1. “Many Christian, non-Catholic, churches allow it.”
2. Not catholic churches though-must be bapatized as christian
3. depends on pastor and that particular church
So the answer is yes you can but not a blanket yes.
“Him expressed his hopes to wed in a church ceremony and …”
The article simply mention “church ceremony” without mention about Christian and/or Catholic. Who started adding/imposing “Christian” and/or Catholic?
Just sticking to the article. 🙂
You mean you can have a ceremony in church without it being christian at the very least? I mean what is then the purpose of saying church ceremony? Why not just say wedding ceremony if it is not in a church? And is there a church that is not christian? WAIT!! Got! Church of Scientology! Then perhaps article should have said alien spaceship ceremony.
Most of my friends who got married in churches doesn’t say “church ceremony”. At least in where I live we don’t. We just say wedding ceremony.
And honestly, why don’t you ask Him since you know him so well?
Funn Lim,
Just admit that you are wrong and naive. What is the point denying you are wrong and naive by saying that you are talking about the theoretical requirements when in fact most people here are talking about the practical requirements?
@Funn
There is a “denomination” that would be perfect for those who just want Christian ceremonial forms but not the essence of the faith. It is called the Unitarian Universalist Church. Primarily, it is a church for atheists” and agnostics that celebrates and worship ‘mankind’ with all the religious ceremonial trappings of the Christian denominations.
Well, actually every country is different when it comes to church weddings. In fact, it is actually different from one region to another region in a big country, such as America. Some churches don’t allow non-christians marry in a church, some allow it as long as you pay and be baptised (either both or one of them), some allow it as long as you pay and pretend to be baptised, some allow it as long as you pay and don’t need to be baptised (openly) and so on.
And not all people want to marry in a church. Some of my friends just have a small dinner with their immediate family from both sides and don’t want a ceremony. Some have a ceremony in a hotel. Some have it on a beach. Some on a ship. Some don’t even want a ceremony and just want to sign the contract and that’s it. And so on. It actually depends on every person’s opinion how they want their wedding to be held. So the notion that marrying in a church is fashionable is a stereotype. Perhaps this is because many people think western wedding = church wedding, so when we see someone wearing a white wedding dress = marrying in a church. This is not true although some people that want a western style wedding want to marry in a church, for their brains are fixed that wearing a white western wedding dress = must be in a church.
@May
I am glad you’ve come out and say it. To think church weddings are fashionable is a silly form of “western envy”.
BTW, many in the West also marry in beautifully decorated Jewish synagogues but I haven’t seen any Asians rushing to get married by rabbi’s.
May and Terminator,
I have to disagree. Yes, only some people have a church wedding, but what I meant by ‘some people’ was enough to say that it is fashionable. Not many people have a church wedding, but there are many people have a church wedding than you expected. <<< I hope you get what I meant for my last two clauses.
And is not that wearing a white western wedding dress, exchanging rings and saying "I do" = 'western envy' even though they do not marry in a church?
God says marriage is for christians. Those non-christians marry in a church is not marriage. It’s a sin. Those are sinners. Your parents that are not christians marry is not called marriage in the eyes of Jesus. They do not marry actually and have you. This is called have sex before marriage. It is a sin too. They will go to hell. For those who are still single, remember that you actually belong to Jesus and don’t repeat what your parents did before it’s too late. Gob bless you.
Sadly, there are many pastors of mainly protestant churches who would perform weddings for non-Christians for a fee. Talk about the trivialization of a faith.
I am still puzzled by this notion of non-Christians who have no interest in the faith but insist on having Christian church weddings. I guess they just want the form and ignore the substance.
An interesting thought just flashed across my mind, I wonder if people like Him Law would consider having a wedding at a mosque or a synagogue?
Wow, they do that? That is so sad, commercialization of church weddings. It’s like how commercialized Christmas has become.
I remember watching movies or even tv series where I thought the character is Buddhist but in times of trouble you see that character in a big lonely looking church, kneeling and praying. I suppose a temple is less hip and more people.
As I said, it is a fashion which will eventually become part of our culture in the future. People want to have a memorable wedding day by wearing a beautiful white dress,exchanging rings and so on. Even I myself also want a wedding like this. As for the traditional chinese wedding, it is okay to have this type of wedding in order to preserve the customs, but to be frank, most people actually have no interest on it and just do it because they want to preserve the customs and respect their parents’ decisions as their parents want to be honored with a cup of tea.
Is it really fashionable to hold weddings in Christian churches? I thought the trend (for non Christians and those who have abandoned the faith) is to wed in exotic places like beaches and cruise ships.
Hope Tavia would stop fixing her face. Bet it wouldn’t look good if she had Pinochio’s nose.
HOpe Tavia & Himhim will walk the marriage road together…Tavia looks better now compare to 2-3 yrs. At least, her nose is not that prominent now. Support her!!! 🙂
I know Him, I know but question is to who? Surely Tavia has no intention of renewing your contract or expanding the terms to include fake marriage and fake kids?
..wtf are you going on about?? lol. You sure do know Him personally, like people would believe cows can fly and pigs can talk.
Cows can fly, in hurricanes and pigs can talk, in movies.
sorry…but i think Him is too handsome for Tavia…Tavia is not pretty enough…i think prettiest is not everything…but it is only my opinion…wish Him marry with someone else 🙁
no one love him coz idiot face.
him is not very handsome
Facebook said: Tavia Yeung dislike this
Maybe Tavia should keep her eyes open for other bfs? She should trust her own instincts.
