anyone home?
It just occured to me that we all have very different wedding types going on here. Anybody here doing the solemnisation bit? like church etc? I only got to know how mine works just recently. Never been a weddingy girl before.. hehe
or is everyone having the tea ceremony, then the wedding banquet? I dont understand so pardon my ignorance yah!
How does a Chinese wedding take place? If anybody having a church one, what's the wedding programme like? Can anyone enlighten me? Im confused but interested to know how everyone else differs from mine.
Im having a muslim solemnisation in the morning. All the serious bit and i suppose the most important part.
After that is the traditional henna ceremony - with people throwing rice at me, slapping some henna etc etc. Not sure how I can keep my face straight with things being thrown at me as part of the blessings etc. Apparently, all these is to symbolise a fertile union. Dunnolah, all sound weird tome but have to do as part of the course.
If not, my mum will cry. Again...
If you've been to Malay weddings, I guess you'll see the couple sitting down on their arses for hours on end, looking bored with forced cheery smiles. And people lining up behind them for piccies? Yup, we have to do that too. But this will be around 2.30pm and Im going to cut it real short as I dont think FH & I can sit that long. Plus I dont want to take the chance that the photographers will only get pictures of us rolling our eyes in boredom after the first 15min.
Then Im having a cocktail reception (only friends and colleagues) at 8pm and supposedly to get everybody stumbling drunk and incoherent by 12am. Im looking forward to this part to end a hard day's work
So please share, im interested to know
thanks.
