Ben & Emelda's Engagement Day
Wednesday, 17 December 2008
Earlier on, I typed the wrong spelling for Emelda.
I realize it when I read their backdrop.
Thousand apologies *goyang kepala skit*
Ben is hubby's first cousin.
Ben has been in many relationships but never find the right one.
Until a friend introduced Ben to Emelda.
After numerous phone calls and smses, they decided to meet up.
It was love at first sight.
And the rest is history as the saying goes.
Ben introduced Emelda to us in one of the family gatherings.
Everyone adores her.
When both decided to get engaged a few months after, everyone was thrilled to know Ben has finally settled down.
I helped him with his blue-themed "hantaran".
Ordered cake from my trusted baker.
On the engagement day (6 December), we dropped by at Ben's house for breakfast.
After breakfast, we started our journey to Tambunan. Along the way, Sean and Selina asked us numerous questions such as "what's that daddy? (pointing at the kerbau).
Hubby answered "Buffaloes."
Sean replied "Oh buffaloes."
We arrived at Emelda's brother's house after one hour of journey.
We were greeted by her family members. Oh I forgot to mention that most of us came in blue.
The blue themed "hantarans".
Gold Engagement Rings
Top Left: Perfume for Her
Top Right: Beethoven Bag & Clutch
Bottom Left: Shoes for Her
Bottom Right: Swatch bracelet watch & Gold necklace with cross pendant and dangling earrings
Ben received 3 in 1 packages (A wrist watch, leather belt and wallet)
The ceremony started when both parties have arrived.
I think it's the quickest negotiation ever.
Everything settled in a span of 15 minutes (discussion on "belanja dapur" and agreement signed by witnesses).
The exchange of rings took place.
Then the cake cutting ceremony.
New addition - Nur Izzah Nadhirah Bonnie
Dyna Emeron
A fusion of traditional food and the usual food(traditional food - pickled kakatung, nonsom bambangan, ikan masin with taugeh, etc)
They never fail to amuse hubby & I.
