Congratulation to Juliana and Michael for tying the knots!!! It was really an eye opener yesterday when i went to attend their wedding dinner. As Juliana's mom is a Muslim, the couple have decided to hold 2 types of wedding celebration. The Chinese customary would be held next year.
Per my memory, a Malay wedding is always conducted in the afternoon til early evening. However, Juliana's one was in the evening. Its really amazing on how the things have changed from last time. When i was still staying at Jurong East, i did encounter a few Malay Weddings being conducted at the void deck of our block. It always consist of a small stage where the couple would be seated and endless long joining tables where the guests will have their meals.
However, its different for Jul's wedding. Her wedding was held at an open space between 2 blocks. Tentage were set up at the sides which houses the buffet dinner, deserts and drinks. The center part was laid with long tables that were decorated with white table clothes and center pieces (so modern). The most impressive of all was the area which was suppose to be the stage. Its not really a stage, but instead, its a covered area floored with many carpets and the couple were seated at the center end of the "room". Silky, lacy cloths were hung around the whole area. This has created a very modern and romantic effect. Its really very different from the tradition Malay wedding which i have seen (will upload the photos once i got them).
Another amazing thing is the wedding flavours. Its 100% hand made (including the bag)
Its actually a glass of Aga Aga with a hard boiled egg and a rose. Anyone know the meaning behind the egg and the aga aga?
