15th Jan, The Actual Day

on 15th Jan, i woke up and told Cindy, "Dear, it's my big day today. I finally got married!" Girls, let me tell you this morning, it's just so different. Cos you are gonna to be someone's wife and daughter-in-law.


At 5.30am, my make up artist Irene came. And it all started. By 6am, all the jie meis arrived and start prepare for the stuffs. Though I am not able to see their preparation process, but from the laughters and shouts, I knew that they have problem sticking the cherries to the string. The cherries are too heavy so it kept fell off from the stalk. Same goes for the banana.

Ferlene prepared the "sour,sweet,bitter and spicy" plate. It was lovely. She used Wasabi to write the letter "LOVE".
it's beautiful, thanks to ferlene



Here's the treats or tricks:
preview of trick and treats

-First, groom has to shout "I LOVE YOU ELAINE" from the void deck

the morning greeting:to shout out I LOVE YOU from the void deck at 7am

-2nd, he and the brothers need to finish up the "sour,sweet,bitter and spicy" plate. Not to mention that they had to lick up each wasabi letter.

-3rd, groom need to put the string of cherries around his neck, and string of bananas tie to his waist. The brothers then need to eat up those stuffs. This is funny plus gruesome. But the jie meis enjoyed so much!

-4th, groom need to stick the masking tape to his leg's hairs. And on the masking tape, he needs to write "I will love Elaine forever"

the masking tape trick

-And he needs to give the ang baos to enter. Then sing "The moon represent my heart" and finally find the right key to open the door!
he sang "YUE LIANG DAI BIAO WO DE XIN"


Of course, with the help from my mum, he manage to get the right key to the bedroom door(there wasn't any correct key from what the girls gave to him!)
got the right key


U know, the moment he walked in, left up my veil and kiss me..was so sweet, but surprisingly, I didn't tear at all..haha.

gonna agree..it's sweet

after which, dad shelter me down with sort of "red" umbrella and i head to my in-laws place. Reason for dad to shelter, meaning he married me out of the house. Don't ask me why red color cos my mum just gave me dad a mixture of pink and blue umbrella. That's modern k. (we didn't really follow the traditional.
ok..wrong color umbrella, should be a bright red one
When reach their house, they were supposed to hide in the room till i called them "father and mother", then they can come out. Reason for this is that, in future, we will not bicker when we meet.


Next is the tea ceremony. Then head to my place for lunch and tea ceremony. We dismissed the jie meis and brothers to go home and rest. Hubby went for short nap(musn't be angry that he slept cos you must consider that he will drink at the dinner and it would be bad if he doesn't have enough sleep) and I stay awake(on the other hand, I better don't drink at the dinner) to entertain the guest as mum and dad were out to do their hairs.



At 4pm, we were all ready to head to the restaurant. But some delay here and there, so end up only reach there at 5pm. And it rained so I am damn worried that the guests would be caught in the rain as it is an open carpark. And mum said that if it rain, it showed that the hosts are stingy pple. Luckily, the rain stopped at 6pm.



Mum went for her make-up then my turn. And my sisters who took my wedding gown was stuck in the jam. I was so damn worried that they would not reach by6.30pm. My hair can't be done unless the gown arrived. So meanwhile, Irene did make up for my sister-in-law. Luckily by 6.30pm, the girls arrived with my gowns, popcorns and registration list. They felt bad about it and asked me not to be piss. I wasn't pissed but more to worried. It's ok, they still make it in time. So by 7pm, I was ready to welcome the guests. Was shocked by this huge poster of us. made by Dainel. OH MY GOD, the 1st thought was where am i gng to put this poster at home?! But I manage to find a place now. It's on the wall, behind my bed. Will post the photo the next blog. It's so nice of him. He couldn't attend my wedding that day as he got an exhibition to take care.



And 7pm, lots of guests started to arrive. And popcorns and lollipops were out. Not much pple appreciate that as I have many left over. Abit sad when i knew they don't think it was consider as a surprise. But to me, I felt it was like going to a movie preview since our invitation card said that it was a movie preview.Nobody actually does that for their wedding..i'm the first mah!

not forgetting the lollipops

Anyway, everything considered went well..the kids manage to march in without running away. food was not bad, alot actually praised for the food. Colleagues enjoyed so much that they started "yum seng" on the 1st dish!

Everything ends at 10.45pm. Settled the bill and got many drunkards left in the restaurant. One of the brothers, Jason who actually helped us drink alot..was super drunk, or I should say HE KO liao. Had to send him home. Then head to in-laws place to count ang baos. When I reached my place, washed my hair and head to bed at 3am. Woo~



The next day 16th Jan, woke up at 8am. Ordered Mac for breakie then went to bank to settle outstanding and then bridal shop to return gown. WOO! only on 17th Jan, I manage to sleep well.


Thanks to all who attend my wedding, your well wishes. I made no loss for the dinner! Thank YOU!
