Celebrity Weddings: Joyce Tang and Matthew Chu
TVB actress, Joyce Tang (滕麗名), married her boyfriend of two years, Matthew Chu (朱建崑), on December 7. The couple’s destination wedding was held at the W Hotel in Ko Samui, Thailand. Surrounded by the beach and sea, Joyce and Matthew exchanged their vows in an intimate ceremony witnessed by 50 friends. Joyce wore two bridal dresses designed by Vera Wang, which were valued at $250,000 HKD.
Thirty-seven-year-old Joyce started dating 42-year-old Canon executive, Matthew Chu, in 2011. However, Matthew was reportedly torn between choosing his official girlfriend and Joyce. Although the relationship had a bumpy road, Joyce continued to be very attentive to Matthew and the couple was back together in April 2012. At the beginning of this year, Matthew proposed to Joyce.
The couple decided to hold a destination wedding away from Hong Kong because Joyce wanted to keep the celebration simple. “In Hong Kong, the celebrations would have lasted for three days straight!” Joyce said that she does not want to be tired from the preparations and left the planning for Matthew to handle. They decided to have their wedding in Ko Samui because of Joyce’s love for water sports. Joyce said it is unlikely that the couple will hold another banquet in Hong Kong later, but will meet with family for a celebratory dinner.
On December 4, Joyce was spotted at the Hong Kong International Airport. She was surprised to see reporters at the airport and greeted them, but did not answer directly about why she was leaving Hong Kong. In a later text message, Joyce confirmed that she was getting married.
Today, Joyce uploaded a wedding photo on Facebook to share with her friends. The newlyweds looked vibrant as they cut their wedding cake on the beach. The couple loves children and Joyce will try to start a family soon.

They look lovely together! Genuinely happy for Joyce to have found love and happiness after all her failed relationships. Congratulations to the happy couple!
Congrats Joyce. She truly deserves a joyful marriage after all the pain she suffered from her past relationships esp with Marco Ngai. Am so pleased that she had a beautiful wedding away from HK.
Congratulations Joyce Tang. Wish you happiness!
Congratulation! Wishing them a blissful and happy marriage till forever.
However, Matthew was reportedly torn between choosing his official girlfriend and Joyce. === This sentence make it sound like she is the third party, that snatch Matthew away from his girlfriend. Which I doubt, because Joyce husband Marco was taken away from her from a 3rd party, so she definately know how it feels. I doubt if she can do that after what she goes through before.
No matter what; congratulations Joyce Tang. We should not dig to deep into anyone’s private life to avoid hurting he/she happiness.
It is great to be happy and I am glad that Joyce has finally found her happiness. However, I can see what Leilafan is saying because I really wonder if anyone can truly be happy if is at the expense of someone else’s happiness?( not just referring to Joyce or anyone but just saying in general).
There was a report back then that while he already had a steady girlfriend of many years when he started dating Joyce and a photo of him locking lips with his then steady girlfriend, in the same report, the pair spent the night at his residence in the same week he was seen holding Joyce’s hands.
I think that statement was referring to earlier press claiming that her (then bf) husband, Matthew, was in a relationship with another woman prior to dating Joyce.

Who knows what happened, but congratulations to Joyce. I hope this man would be a much better man than Marco Ngai !
To Leilafan, why most ppl always blamed the lady to be 3rd party? Do you agree that one hands dont clap? If the male didnt allow it, would Joyce be able to win Matthew’s heart?
Yes Bloom.. I agree. There must be something missing or problem in a relationship that causes the other half to be attracted to another party. Love isn’t about who’s right or wrong. If both are still very much in love with each other, it would be hard for a third party to even get involved. It is best that everyone treasures the other half and do not take them for granted, ever.
Well, none of us know the truth and it is the oats now. Let’s just hope they can be both be happy together and treasure each other.
Meant to say it is the “past” now. Gosh I need the edit button!
I am super happy for her. I always thought she’s so pretty yet has such a rough love life, poor girl. She has now found the love of her life and reporter should stop investigating on her previous love life, aka marco.
Congrats! They look so happy. So glad for Joyce.
Congratulations to Joyce. I’m really happy for her!! Her husband doesn’t seem to look that old at 42 in the wedding picture and they both look so happy and good together. Joyce has always been a very great actress. She’s elegant, pretty and mature and overall a really nice person. I’m kind of sad that TVB no longer promotes her as much in dramas now because I personally think she’s one great and talented actress!
I am so happy to hear she has finally tied the knot!!! So happy for her as I have always loved her in her roles and think she’s gorgeous. Glad she has found true love after all the crap she’s been through. I just hope the media will now stop targeting her. She deserves a wonderful husband, life and hopefully TVB will better promote her from now on
Congrats to her and her new hubby!
Joyce congrats so happy for you.
Congratulations to Joyce and her lucky man, Matther!
Congratulations Joyce & Mathew! So happy for Joyce too! May you both have a blissful marriage forever!
So happy for her! Her romantic life has been very rocky over the years, but she’s finally found somebody right for her 🙂
Congrats to her!! Finally she found her happiness!!
Congrats to Joyce on her wedding! Really happy for her!
Congrats to Joyce and it is great that she did not give up and finally found happiness! Wishing her and her husband a lifetime of happiness!
Congratulations to Joyce!
Although I’m glad to hear that she has finally found her happiness, I’m still iffy about the a guy who has secret girlfriend. That says something about how faithful he is. The idea is kinda creepy and I would be cautious of a someone who is a two-timer.
Ditto. Same thoughts when I heard she was preparing for marriage.
While glad for her, I think Joyce attracts or is attracted to the unsuitable men.
一腳不踏二船 = 1 foot on 2 boats. How can he have an “official gf” and still have hooked up with Joyce?
I am seriously happy for her.
Congratulations to Joyce 😀
Congratulations, Joyce Tang. Have a happy and everlasting married life.
I wonder if Joyce invited any of her colleagues or friends from the e circle?
I am very happy for how her lovelife has turned out for Joyce! SHE FINALLY FOUND THE ONE! Best wishes for Joyce and Matthew! They look lovely together!
Nice couple. Joyce is getting more beautiful with each passing year ….
have always been a fan of her. blessings to the love birds!
She looks happy. After a lifetime of problematic men, I hope this one lasts for her.
All the best !!!!
WHATEVAS! THEY MARRIED and look so lovely together!
Congratulations to the two of them! They both look so happy so that’s all that matters now.
