this 'big work' candid taken by my sister, cah who insist to make my engagement storybook
they reached our house around 3.30 p.m...around 30+ people with 7 dulang hantaran. actually rumah fyzul & mine x smpai 5 minit pn jauhnye..ehehe.
as they were talking to each other..i mean da discussion between 2 families..i was inside. but basically, it was about our upcoming event...most importantly on da wedding dates. for hantaran, my family didnt ask for any amount & it's up to me & fyzul. fortunately my family was not so particular on dat coz i hate those who keep on bargaining for da amount.
talking bout my couture. it was specially made for me with my special request for da material, color, design & da beads itself. i was said to be a quite fussy client by fyzul but my gratitude to hasnah who was passionate to meet my needs.
back to da main thing, i was called then for ring wearing by fyzul's mom. sure enough my heartbeats turned to be faster with da all eyes staring at me while i was walking thru da crowds. fortunately da place for me to sit was very near. nway, thanx to che long & che ngah for ur companian, at least i was not alone.
well, this was his precious time after mine. 'ayah' was putting the ring to him. i guess ayah was quite nervous until he forgot his 'songkok'. actually ring wearing for guy's side is not a norm. depends on ur family custom or tradition.
i've talked bout da couture & i got one story for my makeover. my supposed to be 'mak andam' was unable to be back to Kelantan which i suddenly needed an emergency contact for dat. i managed to get one who is da mother to my youngest sister's fren. she had actually being tasked to one of wedding ceremony but willing to be my magical touch simultaneously. Thank You K Na for dat.
for hantaran - me & fyzul actually planned for 5-7. but then i noticed it should be 7-9. & for the last decision where it was actually to satisfy my grandma, it turned to be 7-7. dat wasn’t a norm to have da same nos of dulang for both parties but nothing wrong. jz an ‘adat’ which anybody can suit with their interest.
these hantaran were totally my touch. really. da material selections were mostly from ‘Summer Flora’ in Serdang. i was damnly tired for the previous week to finalise all of them. i’ve completed those for fyzul’s side before mine which at first i was hardly squeezing my right brain for an idea to start mine. ahaha. nway, i’ve done 14 decorations (7 in gold theme & another 7 in silver-lilac). i had few pats on my back by my aunties. i’m very contented!
