Sabbath> is actually rest day..
As i said.. Mr Chan is a Christian.. so he practices rest day... he works 6 days and rest on the 7th..
Mr Chan's credentials are pretty amazing....
You can just google Chan Kai Yau...and u'll see what u get...
kidnomore> He still solemnises..he just dun do it on SUNDAYs..
CY> yeah... i told my guests to arrive at 230pm and I told Mr Chan that my solemnisation is at 3pm. He was early.. he reached about 2:50pm..
and by then.. all my guests were already seated.. everyone was just waiting for him to come..
And we were able to start on time..
Actually JPs are supposed to be VIPs.. they are not obliged to come and solemnised us..and they have every right to reject any requets..
Coz they are doing this out of goodwill..and they are not paid for it..
WHat we give them in our AP is just to cover their tpt..
Actually.. i've heard of JPs who are even worse when Solemnisation starts late...
Most JPs will arrive on time..and will not want to be late if possible..they treat every Solemnisation very seriously..and they dun joke abt it..
I mean they really take the Solemnisation process seriously.. but of coz.. some light hearted jokes are good to ease the atmosphere..when both the bride and groom gets too tensed up..
If they are late for one..they'll end up being late for all the appts they've made for the day...
Thats why its of utmost importance that we should always tell our frens that we are starting 15-30min earlier...
If u had told ur JP to come at 3pm, its good to tell ur frens its 2.30pm..
Singaporeans being sporeans.. always arrive late.... and given 15min buffer time.. our frens would still be able to reach on time to watch our moment of importance...
NOte that the whole Solemnisation process is only 10min long.... the most 15min...
If our frens are late for 15min.. thats it.. they'll miss the whole thing... so i would still advise to let ur guests know its starting at a particular time...
unless all ur frens are the punctual kind..and are never late... else.... they'll miss it...
not good to keep JPs waiting as well..
