The Wedding Affairs : Solemnization Ceremony
The most important part of a Muslim and Malay wedding is of coz non-other than the solemnization ceremony between the groom and the bride.
The family all gathered in Shah Alam as early as 3pm, as the RELA guys will block the main road entrance and later on during the ceremony , a shuttle van will cater the crowd from walking all the way to their house. You see, that night total invited guests is around 500 people. A mass wedding reception under the beautiful grand royal yellow concept!
The preparation was so grand, that I even feel the tense moment, as if I am the wedding planner pulak! :p LOL!
Oh yes the wedding planner is non-other than our dearest kak Nani-the wedding planner for my eldest brother’s wedding reception. My mom discovered her somewhere in her small shop at Ampang park ke Ampang point back in 2004. Later on, she assisted for my engagement and wedding reception at home in 2005…and then my younger brother’s wedding too in 2010….the others seemed to fall in loved with her creativity…and since then majority of the Shamsudin’s side hired as the wedding planner! PM me if interested to know her blog and her labels :p
Eh back to the story…
I took some of the pictures, late afternoon before the full wedding set up is ready.
I and mr hubby that night were given the honor to become the VIP usherette, and was supposed to assist distributing the bunga telur but Aqib was sleepy so I managed to focus with VIP job je. Sorry gurls, my kid was cranky nak susu! I forgot to ask my maid to bring my stock! Aiyah!
Ok now let’s see the actual event photos…
Noticed the 2 quality picture? Yang clear is from my own camera, the blurry one are from my cousins fb. I lost my hp….so byk picas gone.
My MIL and family came to this reception, glad that we can share this together as a big extended-family event.
By the time we finished is about 11.30pm….mengantuks…rushed back home…tomorrow shall be the peak of the wedding affairs.
Till next entry!

The Wedding Affairs : Qatam Al-Quran & Majlis Berinai
The most awaited wedding of the year is officially kicking off today with Qatam Al-Quran n the morning and later on Majlis Berinai in the evening.
Qatam Al-Quran
The pelamin were cunss (they used the same person we use for my eldest brother , mine and hijaz’s pelamin :)) Ni belum Nikah ni…hmmm..looking fwd to see the solemnization’s pelamin esok!
I had already planned my leave, so as early as 9am me and my mom together with the kids straight to Shah Alam. The Qatam Quran was from 10.00am to 11.00 am and by noon guest were served with Nasi Padang. It was just a small crowd of women together with anak-anak sekolah tahfiz.
Later we rushed back to UK (but not before stopping to Hajra and SugarScarf boutique in Shah Alam) and when finally reached home it was already 4.00pm! Haiyah…penatnya. I was just about to rest when my dad call to get ready as we are leaving again for Shah Alam at 4.45pm. Tak sempat nak rest! We changed our attire and suddenly we are already in Shah Alam by 5.45rpm. The traffic at that time at NKVE was bad, I cannot imagine if we left the house after 5.00pm!!
Berinai
This is more to casual relax concept where my couz change into three costume…and they are
An was such a sport, she posed and posed infront of all her family and friends….we were all cheering like mad macam tengok fashion show hahahah! Wawa enjoyed it very much…Aqib cried though when people were all cheering…takut!

And the last one, tha family all teased her….kena sangat dengan dia hehehe
Matched her chinese look meh 😛
Can you see Aqib? He was yawning!!
This was my last pic for tonight coz I rushed to breastfeed him and he finally sleep after a day long of excitement…till now. 🙂
Where were all the men? Eating lah! Our dinner tonight – Kambing Bakar, hawker style kew tieuw,satay, ice kacang, nasi lemak and the rest if of course desserts! The best part it was totally just us the family tau…so we all were very comfortable enjoying the life band with our cousins singing..at the beautifully decorated gazebos..(no pictures coz by this time my batt dah kiok…talk about that culprit! grrr asyik habis batt!)
I’ll update the official picas once it is shared among us. 🙂
It was a looong day for us, BUT we totally enjoyed it and hopefully An did too…as tonight – her last day as a SINGLE 🙂

School Holidays Activity : Skating with Sarah!
This entry is way overdue!
During the mid-term school break (end of May to early June 2012), both of us took a leave to treat my daughter Wawa for an outing in KL…since Mr husband didn’t agree for an outstation trip 😦
So mama planned for a skating trip at Sunway Pyramid! The last time I skated, was during my university years!!
On our way to Sunway Pyramid!
Wawa was all excited….mama was a bit nervous coz I myself not a superb skater. heheh…so papa had to hold on to Aqib and both of us went in….
oh yes before that papa bought our entry tickets, our gloves (we brought our own socks) and of course to rent the skates.
We queued and they measured our feet sizes, Wawa’s 13 mine 39…heee
I hate wearing them coz it’s painful…after that we had to walk all the way to the skating rings….sangat mencabar!
Wawa, complete with her skates and gloves! Mine…I left it in my handbag outside la…the staff warned me – not supposed to skate without the gloves…dangerous!
She started crying uwaa as we start skating,,,,fuh I was all stressed up b’coz we were already half way around the rink…and there was no way to reverse back..all the way holding the side je…orang block pun kami pegang depa haha..jenuhhhhh!
Whatever it is, we still couldn’t resist to capture this moment on camera! hikhik..kena warned by the staff again no pictures! BORINGGGG
Meanwhile, Aqib cried from outside,poor adik coz he saw us in there without him! Nanti besar sikit mama bawak Aqib gan kakak roller blading dulu before coming here again kay…
Us
Once we completed the big circle….we head for the exit terus heheh…mama pun sakit kaki sangat!
The nice picture were taken by a boy who sat near us…thanks!
As papa and Aqib – still outside the area.
Fuhh…Wawa said…”I don’t like skating!” erk..kesian mama…maybe tunggu besar sikt lagi lah!
We were there from 12pm to 3pm….then straight to our next activity ! We hope Wawa & Aqib will love this one.
Stay tuned for the next entry :))
