Of wedding again

Went to Joe’s cousin’s wedding at Dewan Alwy, FRIM on Saturday. The wedding was beautiful. I think she engaged the famous Arma Wedding Couture to design the hall and her pelamin. The pelamin looked exactly like this one except that the flowers were white instead of pink.

Boy, I was surprised to see an ice sculpture outside the hall. Didnt take any pictures, forgot to bring the camera. Wasnt interested anyway, because the wedding was so beautiful, I cant help feeling envy the whole time I was there.

Then there was the ex-gf at the wedding. Mr. Joe’s ex-gf la, sape lagi. She’s pretty but I’m prettier. Heh. She’s plump size with long wavy hair. Joe said she used to be slimmer and wearing tudung when they were dating. While we were waiting outside to go back, she went outside too. Caught her eyeing my husband a few times. Back-off missy, he’s all mine now.

Anyway, back to the wedding, indeed it was a beautiful one but thousands of ringgit spent for a few hours event, I think it’s a waste unless your daddy is a wealthy man. But if you needed to borrow money here and there to pay your wedding planner, the priority isnt right.

Eventhough my wedding didnt come out the way I want it to be, I still love it, I love my family still (tak gaduh2) and I love my husband so much. It’s not worth quarelling or spending tooooo much money over a wedding reception that lasted only a few hours. Because the next day, the husband mula pening mana nak cari duit bayar hutang or terungkit masa gaduh2 tu about spending all his savings on the wedding.

I’m so glad we didnt have to borrow money from anyone or make personal loan for our wedding. And I still have my savings plus the duit hantaran. And I felt more special and appreciated when every cent my husband spent for the wedding came from his own savings, not a cent from his dad.

Bride-to-be out there, know your limit. Everyone dreams of having the beautiful things. If your parents or future parents-in-law is filthy rich and is paying for it, go ahead with your plans. But if you knew your future husband isnt that well off, have pity on him. Always remember, your husband’s debt is your debt too. His problem is contagious and you will get affected..
