Malam Berinai - 12 March '10

Sorry the events don't seem to follow in order of date.

Malam Berinai - Henna Night - after the Akad Nikah (solemnization of marriage) & after Isya' prayers. Well the bride had already put the henna on her hands and feet a couple of days before this night. The night was celebrated and enjoyed by all with a small bersanding ceremony to bless the newly weds.

The Wedding Reception

Venue: Singgahsana Hotel, Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Date: 20 March'10

We spent 2 nights at the hotel The first nite was on the eve of my son's wedding so that we can wake up early and see to the final wedding preparations by the hotel's wedding planner.That meant 'not enough of beauty sleep' and more of jitters...HAppily things went quite smoothly. We all enjoyed and the guests were thoroughly happy about the food served.

The guests of honour were naturally the in-laws entourage from Jelai, Negeri Sembilan and the orpahns from baitul Izzah from Pinggiran Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur.

The usherers for the wedding were my nieces and nephews and close friends.




The wedding cake is a dummy cake. The newly weds were give a small cake at the side of the tiers to cut. Here you see the cake during the rehearsal at 10.00am on the day of the wedding.


The dashing newly-weds starting the procession from the Hotel lift lobby. The flower girl (Nik Nazirah) and flower boy (Fitri) are my niece and nephew. The best man is my youngest boy - Aiman - who wanted so much to be seen in his new jacket suit like his brother. Accompanying them is also the bridesmaid who is my niece -Nik Naziah.

The Hantaran

The groom sent 7 trays of gifts to the bride's family. They in turn returned the gesture with 9 trays of gifts.The gifts were all decorated by my son and me and I must say that we were pleased with the results.

Voila! Here are the gifts. The seventh tray is the one with the Telekung - sorry I didn't upload it individually but you can see it in the pictures below.



Here is the White Telekung in the square wire basket.

Oops! Pardon the mess. This picture was taken in the hotel room.

The Mas Kahwin (RM200.00), the Wang Hantaran ( RM10,000.00 in the form of Cheques) and the Ring (Platinum with a tiny diamond) - were all in one tray.

The bride's Handbag, Blouse and Slacks (hidden).
