Cerita Pasal Kahwin #2

Sebenarnya post lepas aku nak cakap pasal benda lain, tapi dah termelalut sampai satu page. Haha.

Aku kahwin dulu, jumlah jemputan 200 orang sahaja. Majlis belah aku tak ada lah grand pun tapi besar sedikit dari majlis kakak aku. Naikkan 3 khemah yang takde skirting pun - mak aku cakap membazir je. (Which was good - that saved me RM150 - additional RM50 for each tent just for a simple piece of cloth attached to the tent!)

I spent quite a lot on door gift because I can't decide what to give. (Guys, stick with bunga telur - it is much cheaper that way I think).

Majlis belah aku tak ada pelamin bagai - I really think it is a waste of money - lainlah kalau jenis buat sendiri. I find some of the self-made pelamin are super cute! (Ok, macam nak termelalut lagi).

At the end of the day, aku rasa majlis tu served its purpose - untuk menghebahkan tentang perkahwinan tersebut (at a low cost).

Some may think that it was such a simple (stingy?) ceremony but would you rather spend so much on one day and get into fights days afterwards because of financial scrutiny or would you rather spend on necessary things and just a few addditional things to prepare for the future?

On the not so bright side, I cannot invite all my friend because of the limited invites. So, janganlah cakap/tanya, "Dah kahwin? Tak jemput aku pun!,"

This goes generally - for some people, not being invited to a friend's wedding is such a big deal. Please be rational. We cannot invite every person we know, can we? We have friends from primary school, secondary school, university, part-time co-workers, officemates, etc, etc. How could we invite all of you? And maybe, we do not have as much money as people think to cover the costs. Maybe we can only afford a small ceremony.

(Or just maybe, you are not important enough. Just kidding!)
