Her Wedding: Deco, The Family, Wedding Singer, dan Door Gift

Assalamualaikum bloggers...

Salam hari Selasa...

Alang2 tengah belek2 CD gambar2 kahwin my sister hari tue, rasanya Ms Red Ribbon nak sambung la cite kahwin nie...

Hari tue dah bercerita pasal solemnization my sister kan?

Sekarang nak cite plak pasal wedding receptionnye...

Ok, bermula dari locationnye kat GRAND SAHID JAYA HOTEL.

Hotel nie hotel lama, dah femes sangat, siap diorang dah ada kolej utk bisnes pelancongan

Mungkin kat KL macam Berjaya Hotel Group kot...

My sister dah usha2 banyak dewan, agak payah nak dapatkan dewanutk tarikh wedding dia 3hb 3 tahun 2012... Jadinye kat sini la jodoh dewannya...

Ok let's check out my sister's wedding deco...

Masuk main entrance terus je jumpe tangga/escalator utk naik ke tingkat 2.

Sebab hall tue memang kat atas...

So memang diperlukan decoration for tangga nie (scallop) untuk mempercantik tangga tue :)

Nie suasana kat tingkat dua...

I really love the deco!!!

My sister's husband is Javanese, dan kami xnak tinggalkan kebiasaan untuk memakai deco kayu2 jati dalam deco wedding nie.

So we requested untuk tetap pakai perabut kayu jati, tapi dalam warna putih.

So sesuai ngan tema yang my sister nak, Bohemian-French Wedding

BLUE-WHITE-PEACH :)

Lepas masuk entrance tue, jumpe la ngan gazebo nie.

This is common in Indonesian wedding, selalunya pakej deco kahwin dah masuk bende nie...

Gazebo untuk welcoming guests dan letak gambar2 prewedding pengantin.

That time was my first time I went to the dewan, my sister and mom je yang usha2 dewan nie coz I was pregnant that time couldn't come to Jakarta that often to help out my sister.

So I'm very happy and excited sgt2 tengok dewan nie, sangat cantik, dan cat dinding dan deco dewan tue sendiri memang kayu2 putih, so ngam sangat la my sister pilih dewan tue for her wedding :)

Satu prewedding pic on canvas dalam dewan...

She had lots of prewedding shoot session, and all done in Singapore.

Since she's staying in Singapore rasanya memang senang nak bergambar kat sana.

Pegi mana2 naik MRT je, then the country sooo bersih...

Bergambar kat mana2 pon cantik...

Ok, cut the crap pasal prewedding shoot...

Next!

This is the pelamin look like.

Similar what she had at home on her solemnization day, the difference is that kayu stelsel (we called it this) daripada kayu jati tue kaler putih.

Ahhh I love this so much.
Sangat teringat dulu nak kawen this is my first dream wedding theme, tapi akhirnya bertukar pada Moroccan theme.

So I was like turning a year back, feeling like this is actually my wedding day.

Ahahaha bermimpi jew kan?

Bestnyer sesi bergambar bersama pengantin kat pelamin

Tengok 2 orang perempuan sebelah kanan tue, me and my sister in law...

Dua2 tengah preggy 7.5 dan 8 bulan, besar dah perut...

Bertambah satu ahli keluarga.

Bertambah ramai dah family nie :)

 So, that's about it pasal decoration.

Xberapa mood untuk snap pic.

So these is all I got from the photographer...

Hope bole bagi idea untuk bakal pengantin yang nak tema camnie...

Simple color and sweet kan?

Now move on to the wedding entertainer...

My sister hire a jazzu vocal band.

Sesuai utk tema yang a bit to modern macam nie...

The singer is FAR BETTER than my wedding singer.

Actually that time, saya tertipu.

Saya dapat contact daripada orang lain yang menyatakan this girl is a manager of banyak band2 muslim, even dia nie ada kene mengene ngan Maher Zain la kalau Maher Zain tue datang ke Indonesia.

So that time I hired her dan she promised dia akan siapkan penyanyi2 yang best2!

Tengok2... huff hampeehhh rasanya dia main ambil orang dari tepi jalan ke ape yang betul2 xtahu menyanyi langsung!

Geramnye my family nasib baik I have one cousin nie memang suaranya sedap, so selang seling la my cousin nie menyanyi.

Saya pon yang hari tue kat pelamin tengah busy bersalam ngan tetamu bole rasa ya Allah sape nie yang nyanyi? Macam orang xreti nyanyi je...

Ok cut the crap, past is past dan itu pengajaran untuk saya dan keluarga.

Untuk my sister wedding, kami sanggup datang ke satu mall yang diorang cakap diorang ada perform kat sana, so kami tengok how good they are then after that baru we hired diorang.

Dan hasilnya.... PUAS HATI!

And oh... Tertinggal pasal reception desk plak...

Hehehehe

 

This is the reception desk.

Oh sangat cumil masa nak masuk hall, dah bersiap my cousins 3 orang yang comel2 nie for greeting and smiling to all guests...

Lepas we all sign the guestbook, dapat la door gift yang sangat cumil juga...

Dan nie door gift yang super cumil dan sangat GO GREEN...

Nie pokok betul yer.

Kne bawa balik rumah and let it grow :)

This flower could describe their LOVE... 

It will grows each day in their life... Aamiin...

Her Wedding : Solemnization Day

Assalamualaikum bloggers,

Salam Khamis...

Lama dah xtulis entry using English. 

Dah lama juga xbersocialize pakai English.

Rasanya dah makin teruk la my English.

Dah berubah plak jadi Singlish hihihi...

Today nak bercerita pasal my sister's wedding.

Yes, my younger sister is married too.

Few months ago I wrote some stories about it, helping her to prepare few minor things for her wedding, but since I was in my last trimester months pregnancy, I really had no time to update more about it.

But infact, I do love weddings!

I do love sharing things about wedding that I knew.

And this was my sister's wedding I'd like to write about.

So it was a sunny Saturday morning,

03-03-2012

Solemnization table is ready since last night.

The pelamin too...

The pelamin was actually a design for my akad nikah pelamin that time (we hired same decorator), but I refused using that 'air terjun' thingy.
Look at the center of the pelamin, it is "air terjun" that flows onto the floor...

Was afraid all the floor will go wet... Hehehe...

So we apply the theme for my sister's.

I only slept at 3am the night before just to check out some workers installing the pelamin, decorating the hall and bride's room, and tents... I did the same thing when it was my wedding day year ago, but my sister has gone to bed since 7pm. Huff... bestnyer...

Hehehehe...

My sister's make up artist has arrived on time that morning, while mine... didn't showed up!

Mom kept on calling her (same make up team with my wedding's make up team) and finally she picked up the phone and she forgot the solemnization will be in the morning!

Huaaa... panic mode!

It was a hectic morning that when my MUA came and just applied foundation on my face suddenly my sister came in to my room and need some touch up on her face+hair and her mua not really used to in doing traditional-hair design.

As in my custom, all the akad nikah normally we do traditional way, so it need a magic hand who experienced years in this.

So yeah, my MUA left me just like that...

Just for my dearest sister, I'm sincerely lend her my mua hehe

I finally continuing make-up ing myself...

Which of course it was such a nightmare coz I'm not good at it.

While everyone busy... The groom has arrived at the front door...

Mom hasn't done with her tudung yet, but rushed into gate and welcoming the groom and family.

This is the very moment I realized the need of the big family to hand in hand helping as the wedding comittee... I'm surely can't handle all this, was pregnant and doing things so slow too...

And oh... I haven't done with my tudung yet!

Luckily my MUA done with my sister and grabbed me to do my tudung!

It was a very fast one, 5 mins or less I guess...

And here it goes:

My make up and instant tudung... Hehehe...

Fuuuhhh... 

Was thought I couldnt make it.

Mommy I promised I wake up and prepare myself earlier next time...

*Sorry sista*

The pretty one then walked into the hall.

Waaa sempat senyum plak kat camera... :)

A very dub dab moment for my sister.

Yet it was the most touched moment I saw that day.

Couldn't handle my tears...

With one sincere breath, yes, she's finally her husband's wifey :)
Alhamdulillah...

Moga berkekalan hingga akhir hayat dan dikaruniai anak2 yang comel dan soleh solehah :)

Happy wedding Tuko+Herly :)

My Wedding Story: My OP failed la! + My Bunting Kahwin dah siap!

Tak berapa nak update sangat...

Tak berapa sihat untuk selalu online :(

Biase la, my first trisemester pregnancy, sangat xselesa nak buat apa2...

But I managed to create few things few days ago...

First of all, bagi contoh photobook layout kat photographer wedding kat Jakarta.

Coz I seriously nak complaint banyak kat diorang.

My OP!

Msalahnye kat Jakarta kalau kita dah book satu dewan, we only given few choices of OP yang dah ada kerjasama ngan dewan tu.

Kalau kita outsource dari luar, kna charge dalam RM10k.

Gila nak mampos kan?

So, 'terpaksa' la amik yang dah ada kat sana... 

Itupun mahal gak, cecah juga RM5k (nie photographer yang paling murah diorang bagi quotation, terus me amek la dia sbb budget quite tight), better la daripada kne bayar extra charge.

Tapi oh tapi...

Xsesuai apa yang diinginkan.

Sebetulnye me dah bawa photographer dari Malaysia, kawan yang hari tue tolong tangkapkan gambar prewedding.

I trust him so much (I even trust Malaysian photographer more) but then masa dia nak gerak dari KL ke Jakarta with Mr Red Ribbon, kena tahan plak kat imigresen coz ada loan belajar xsettle lagi.

Huaaa sangat sedih masa dapat SMS dia xdapat datang.

I was like "Ok, mesti gambar2 kahwin nie xada yang cantik sgt"

Seriously, from my OP, xbanyak gambar cantik, susah nak pilih gambar mana yang leh masuk photobook.

Dahtue diorang pon rasanya hire student ke ape yang buatkan desain photobook tue.

Siap bising nak terus print...

HELLO, HANTAR LA DULU DESAIN TUE KAT I.

I NAK TENGOK!

*marah ni marah*

Tengok2 memang betul...

Desain xcantik langsung...

Boring! Page by page nampak kosooonnggg je...

Tengok nie:

How could they did this to my wedding photobook?

So few days ago tu, I was trying to create few contoh for them to see.

What i want from a photobook.

I'm not a photo designer...

Not even have any education to do good design...

At least I know what I want for my photobook.

Nie la satu yang me buat dan hantar kat diorang, mintak diorang buat lagi bagus, lagi pack, xkosong macam kat atas tue...

They should come out with better, waaayyy better design.

Hopefully, now just wait for their revision...

And by the way, I manage to design bunting kahwin nanti...

Alang2 dah kuarkan gambar studio kat atas tue, terus la sambung wat bunting, dah hantar for printing... Tunggu siap je :)

How's the design? Simple2 je kan?

My Wedding Story: Reception's Make Up

As Salam, bloggers...

Tak rasa, dah Jumaat lagi...

Masa cepat berlalu...

Tapi eh tapi, dah 1,5bulan kahwin, cerita pasal wedding hari tue xhabis2 lagi diceritakan :)

Cerita pasal hari pernikahan/akad nikah memang sudah, sekarang Ms Red Ribbon nak sambung lagi pasal resepsi kat dewan satu hari selepas diijabkabulkan :)

Hari Ahad tue, 24 Julai 2011 pukul 5.30am pagi dah siap gerak ke dewan.

Awal sangat memang, tapi believe me, dah pagi camtu pon still terkejar2 masa coz make up tak siap2 sampai pukul 10am kne standby masuk dewan...

Alhamdulillah, dewan Birawa Assembly Hall tue bagi bilik untuk make up sangat2 besar dan cukup untuk semua family.

Siap diorang bagi katil untuk pengantin atau family kalau masih mengantuk sebab datang terlampau awal.

Or probably untuk sesiapa yang bawa baby atau budak kecik.

As usual (sama macam masa akad nikah) Indah Salon cakap she preffered me to lay down, baring2 gitu, daripada bermekap sambil duduk.

Best, memang saya masih mengantuk lagi!

So, baring la :)

Honestly, if you plan for your wedding, kne plan betul2.

Coz hari tu korang xkan fikir banyak bende.

I pon dah 'serah diri' dah ke semua team yang bekerja.

Xnak complaint, xnak minta apa2.

Nak diorang cepat buat semua bende then cepat habiskan majlis :D

Contoh lagi nie macam accessories kepala, rasanya agak berlainan dengan last fitting.

Tak sangka bole jadi macam nie, sangat banyak bende tampal kat kepala.

Aunty Etty, the MUA, tak pernah cakap pon nak tepek bende2 nie.

Tapi...... I LIKE!

It's just that.... nape jadi nampak macam Indian accessories ye?

Tengok la Mr Red Ribbon nie?

Eh ini India laaa...

As I said before, dah xde masa nak complaint.

Just enjoy the show...

Pengantin kne berseri seri :)

Whatever it is, I like their make up and accessories, it's just not really match to the theme.

But who cares??? :)

My Wedding Story: Bilik Pengantin & Cadar untuk Disewakan...

Assalamualaikum, bloggers...

Tiba masanya Ms Red Ribbon cite pasal bilik pengantin.

Dalam Wedding Preparation memang xpernah diceritakan pasal bilik pengantin nie, coz:

- Set cadar mom sudah belikan beberapa tahun lepas (sekali untuk my sister yang belum berkahwin pon mom dah belikan, rajinnye dia beli barang2 camginih... baru je tahu) dan set cadar tue ada kat Jakarta, so memang masa saya kat KL tak leh nak cite, coz gambar pon xde hehe...

- Bilik pengantin saya pakai bilik abang & sis in law coz bilik diorang je yang ada kat bawah, bilik2 lain kat atas. So I kicked him out for few days hehehe, diorang pindah ke bilik my sister. My sister pon memang xduduk kat Jakarta, so memang bilik dia kosong. Bole la abang tumpang kejap :)

- Perabut pindah2kan je dari bilik my sister, pinjaaammm jap.

So, xada major things yang mesti dikhawatirkan pasal bilik pengantin nie.

I'm not really interested to decorate macam2, bunga dah cukup dah, coz I know I won't stay there for so long. Masa malam pengantin tue satu malam, the next day duk kat hotel coz majlis resepsi kat hotel, the next day dah balik kampung ke Bandung dan Tasik Malaya.

For make up, baju pengantin (persalinan), pelamin decor, dan bilik pengantin nie, semua INDAH SALON yang siapkan, dah pakej. Sekali ngan canopy dan kerusi2 tamu...

Sama macam pelamin, hiasan bunga bilik pengantin nie pakai fresh flower.

Dan saya memang dah request: BUNGA SEDAP MALAM & JASMINE!!!

Hehehe, and here is the bilik pengantin:

Camgini la bilik pengantin tue... Sangaaaattt wangi....

Set cadar tue mom cakap dad belikan kat Turkey masa dulu ada keje kat sana, heee betul ke ma???

Lamanyer mom siapkan pernikahan anak2 daranya :)

Warna cream colored soft cotton ngan gold threads.

Memang xleh pakai hari2 la, hehe saya kan suke yang simple2, satu kaler, plain, xde corak.

Tue je yang akan jadi cadar kat rumah hari2...

Mungkin nak sewakan cadar pengantin nie, ada sesiapa berminat???

:)

Gambar kami yang not-so-romantic kat bilik pengantin :)

Segan, sister in law yang tangkapkan :D

My Wedding Story: Adat2 Pernikahan

Sambung lagi kisah pernikahan ku yang rasanya sangat2 neverending...

Rasa macam nak wat satu entry je hehe tapi banyak bende plak bole kongsikan...

Harap2 korang xbosan ye...

Selepas ijab qobul dan tukar cincin tue, masuklah acara ADAT.

Kalau korang dah pernah baca entry saya pasal adat2 nie kat SINI, at least korang knows what to expect.

Hmmm not much adat, coz I don't really like it.

Saje nak menghormati kebiasaan leluhur dan nenek moyang, so buat juga la sikit.

I just wanted to write some adat, not all...

1. SUNGKEM

 

Acara meminta maaf ngan parents nie memang buat saya sangat2 terharu.

Kami sungkem ke dua belah pihak parents.

Yepp... sekarang saya ada parents baru...

Mohon2 la diterimakan semua kekurangan saya.

Saya nie baru je nak belajar berumah tangga.

Harap2 sabar dan leh tunjuk ajar...

My dad was the most sentimentil person throughout the wedding process,

After dia menangis tersedu masa nak ijab qobul kan Mr Red Ribbon, dia pulak yang menangis tersedu2 masa sungkem nie.

I'm not that close to him but I'm so feeling like it is hard for him to let me go...

*ouch, here I go again, crying...*

2. SAWERAN

Selepas sungkem tue, kami duduk kat luar, kat area car porch.

Ramai orang dah tunggu dah kat sana, sebab nak SAWERAN!

Nie la part adat yang paling heboh, buat sepah, seronok...

Tak kesah budak kecik ke orang dewasa ke, semua mesti having fun kat sini hehehe...

Nie la isi dari saweran tue, gula2, duit syiling... tak banyak, total dalam RM100+ camtue...

Ngan potongan2 reben kecik2...

Semestinye pakai beras, tapi xnak jadi bazir plak, so tukar ngan reben...

Parents la yang akan baling2 apa2 yang ada dalam bekas saweran tue.

Baling ke utara, selatan, timur, dan barat...

Pastue ramai la orang2 kutip syiling dan gula2 tue :D

Bising sekejap, orang2 berseronok tercarik2 duit dan gula2 hehehe...

3. BUKA PINTU

Adat nie not on my list, tapi emcee tue ada buat, so ikut je la...

Ceritanya macam nie la... Selepas kahwin, xbole suka2 hati je terima tetamu lelaki kat umah.

So me tunggu kat dalam rumah while Mr Red Ribbon tunggu kat luar.

Ada la pantun2, kebanyakan memang bahasa Sunda yang I don't really understand too :D

Tapi bagusnye emcee ada translate into Bahasa Indonesia for Mr Red Ribbon to understand.

Mr Red Ribbon akan ucapkan "Assalamualaikum"

Dahtue emcee akan tanya, betul ke itu suara Mr Red Ribbon.

As the wife, kita kne ingat suara suami.

So when I said "yes, it's him." baru bole pintu (kain putih) tue dibuka.

Mr Red Ribbon akan masuk ke rumah dan me as his wife akan cium tangan dia :)

4. HUAP LINGKUNG & 

PABETOT BAKAKAK HAYAM

First of all, our parents suapkan nasi pulut ngan serunding daging untuk pengantin.

This was meant to be last suap from our parents.

That means lepas nie kita berdua yang kne cari rezeki sendiri, xada cite minta2 kat parents lagi.

Lepas tue pengantin sendiri saling suapkan nasi tue.

Minum air pon kne cross tangan kat belakang...

Susah weeeiiii... Mr Red Ribbon kena sound emcee, jangan tengok pengantin perempuan, tengok la cawan tue hehehehehe

Next ialah pabetot bakakak hayam (tarik2 ayam), dan part nie la yang kelakar...

Once the ayam sampai, we supposed to hold each peha ayam tue.

Tengok2 diorang dah cut peha tue, satu part yang kecik satu part besar.

Yang part besar tue, kalau la memang wedding organizer dah cut, akan diletak dekat ngan tangan pengantin lelaki, so lelaki akan dapat part yang banyak which means lelaki tue akan jadi pencari nafkah yang main dalam family.

Tapi oh oh tapi, emcee tue silap pulak letak part yang besar kat my side.

Sebelum emcee cakap untuk start tarik ayam tue, kitaorang dah agak2 dah...

"Nie mesti Mr Red Ribbon dapat kecik je."

Dan betul!

Tak payah tarik pon peha yang kecik tue dah terlepas.

Dan me dapatkan part yang besaaarr!!!

Hehehehehe...

X aci betul2 x aci...

Haahaha nama pon adat, just for fun kan :)


So, tue la adat2 yang ada dalam my wedding...
Tak banyak, tapi seronok :)

My Wedding Story: Tukar Cincin :)

Kalau kat Msia disebut "batal air sembahyang" ke?

Hehehe mintak maaf belum berapa paham ngan few terms dalam perkahwinan kat Malaysia.

Tapi kat Indonesia lepas habis ijab qobul tue, sambung dengan pemberian mahar.

Alhamdulillah, mahar yang Mr Red Ribbon bagi ialah satu set perhiasan emas putih.

Separuh beli kat Msia, separuh tempah kat Indonesia, sebab nak design yang sama, terpaksa la tempah krn xada kedai yang jual design yang similar.

Lepas tue, tukar cincin kahwin.

Kami xada cincin kahwin, I mean, cincin tue the same with cincin tunang, hanya pindahkan dari tangan kiri ke tangan kanan.

Alasan pertama, sebab nak kurangkan bajet, alasan kedua xnak banyak sangat simpan cincin.

Satu kan cukup akan senantiasa dikenang selama lamanya :)

Kalau tengok dalam gambar kan, sebab tudung tue besar sangat, tambah lagi pakai bunga melati (jasmine) nampak la my kepala besoooo...

Nampak sangat badan lagi besar dari Mr Red Ribbon kan?

Nampak kecik je dia kan...

Kurang nampak macho la dalam sesi nie :D

Hehehe...

Selepas tue sambung dengan sesi bergambar kat situ juga.

Inilah 2 jenis gamabr selepas ijab qobul yang WAJIB dekat Indonesia, kalau x, sudah la macam x afdhol je kahwin tue, wkwkwkwkwk...

Tiru2 penganten selebriti ada la jugak :D

Yang pertama bergambar ngan tunjuk cincin kahwin :)

(nak tahu cite pasal cincin kahwin leh tanya atau search "wedding ring")

Yang ke dua, bergambar tunjuk buku nikah :)

Hehehe...

Tue la cite hari nie.

Semalam join bazaar kat TTDI, masih penat.
Hari nie (petang) nak sambung lagi..
Jom datang RASTA TTDI yer...
