A Wedding Affair

Just I attended my cousin’s wedding yesterday.

First I went to the airport to fetch my dad, who was coming back from Holland. And I had yummy Macs breakfast. Reached Limin’s house at around 8 plus and saw her ‘sisters’ preparing fo the tekan session. Some of the highlights were the groom wearing reindeer ears and pink shrek-like ears together with lipstick. They had to eat wasabi with biscuits, drink bitter stuffs and eat lemons. In addition, there was a really cute dance they had to do. The worse, I thought, was them having to put their feet in a pail of ice and water to find the right key to the brides’ room door. I’m sure it was really cold.

The dinner was at 88 restaurant and the food was good, but of course, the ambience cannot be compared to hotel venues.

What I took away from the wedding was what I wanted for my own wedding. I definitely want something that makes people go : wow, I want this for my wedding / if only i did this for my wedding. I am thinking maybe I should do away with the chinese dinner and go for a more westernised one. Or maybe I wont have tea ceremony in the house but at the hotel. It’d be good if I were able to have a dinner where there’s a dance floor for the wedding couple to take the first dance and guests will also join in. But who’s gonna dance man. None of the relatives will even step on the dance floor.

And for once, I want a REAL wedding cake.

Congratulations Steven and Limin!
