to marriage

2 Saturdays ago, 23 June, my best friend finally got married... Watching her and her hubby together, I must say they were really a very good looking and sweet couple... Marital bliss was literally plastered on their faces...

The night before, I had dinner at her place and we had a manicure and pedicure party with her sisters. It was fun because it felt like I suddenly had 2 younger sisters... lolz... We were really disciplined. By ten, it was lights out for the bride and the mom. The rest of us were planning the 'sabo' sequence of events... afterall, what's a wedding without the 'sabo'...

The next morning, I was the early bird who got up early to prepare the 'sabo' stuff. To symbolise the 'sour, sweet, bitter and spiciness' of love, this was what we prepared:

Sour - lemon juice (so kind of us, rite?)
Sweet - sugar + water (it was diabetes inducing!)
Bitter - bittergourd juice (must drink to health...)

and the most deadly of all...

Spiciness - chilli padi + hot water

All these were placed in deceptively lovely shooters... lolz...

Not to forget the games we played like 'Find the Keys' (Stage 1: at the door), 'Limbo Rock' (Stage 2: at the hall), 'Drink the shooters' (Stage 3: at the corridor) and finally 'Sing a song' (Stage 4: outside the bridal room)

After that we went to the groom's place for tea ceremony before returning back to the bride's place for another round of tea ceremony. At about 2 pm, we headed for the hotel, Four Seasons. I am so impressed with their rooms... it is so absolutely gorgeous!

By 6. 30pm, it was time for the solemnisation of the marriage. When I saw them exchanged rings, I couldn't help tearing... tears of joy. When you have known someone for 11 years, it really feels like watching your sister get married. Especially knowing that he is a great guy, I am definitely happy for her.

During the reception, they had a champagne bar which was so classy... a real great way to begin the dinner. During the dinner, the food was good. I really enjoyed it very much. After the dinner, we went up to the room with the bride while the groom was dragged to KTV (decent ones!) by his 'pig & dog' friends. The dinner which they brought it for my friend was really good!

To everyone intending to hold their wedding ceremony, do go to Four Seasons. The decor is classy, the food is delicious, the bridal suite is gorgeous... what more can I say...
