Actual Day - Morning Session (Pt 2)

... continued from Actual Day - Morning Session (Pt 1)

The fetch bride entourage was made up of approximately 8 cars, my newly wed husband and his brothers used the walkie talkie to communicate with each other during the ride. From my home to the new home, takes about 45 minutes. Some sisters lost their way, but with our address, they anyhow made it here.

- Upon arriving, Billy, being the younger cousin brother to Wilson was tasked to "open the car door" at groom's home. There, he requesting for a fatter angpow to match his size -

- Finally the bride and groom came down from the car -

- Us and our bridal car -

- The brothers and sisters clapped and welcomed us to the new home -

..V..  peace ..V..

- First thing to do was to make offering to the ancestors and god in our new home, guided by the Chaperon Lady -

- Being watched by all the guests that day, all Wilson's relatives made their way here, some even from Bangkok! -

- After prayers to god and ancestor, we began the tea ceremony, started with my in-laws. Apparently the Bangkok relatives told my mother in law to touch my head during the tea ceremony, symbolize me as the new daughter in law will be filial to them. Well, well... -

- Then to the elder relatives, aunties and sister in law & her husband -

- Finally the younger relatives, mostly cousins; offered tea to us or some chose just to congratulate us -

- Next up was photo session, did not put up all the photos though, else will be just a photo entry! Us, with my parent in law -

- My beloved sister, in our hot pink theme! - 

- Wilson's supportive brothers, their safety helmets taken off? -

- A group photo! -

- Then we headed upstairs to our bridal room, I was anxious to see how Wilson decorated it while waiting for the arrival of his bride -

- We had 2 baby boys to jump on our bed, a custom to symbolize luck in getting baby boy later on -

- But little Saujer was not having the best mood that day, aww -

- Darren, Wilson's little cousin brother even presented us a magic trick as a wedding gift! -

- Customary: Groom to take off the bride's veil and keep it in the cupboard, Bride to take off the groom's coat and put it on the bed -

- My sisters were all witnessing this event, finally we had chance to do our usual "ritual", camwhore!! -

- Final photo with the pink ladies, Sue and Chin Ye went back earlier due to personal issues - 

- Flower tossing, Cammy is next in line! Yeah! -

- We finally settled down as husband and wife, customary. Wait! There is still the wedding dinner to go tomorrow night.. how exciting! -

With the end of the ceremony, all guests were served with a buffet lunch catering.  

Overall our actual day morning session was very successful, of course there were some hiccups here and there but it was really fun and memorable. Our parents were happy, the ceremony and Chinese customs were well organized with the great help from the chaperon lady, Doris. Our relatives felt all happy to see us finally tying the knot. Our brothers and sisters had fun with the games and entourage, perhaps the games was piece of cake to them, but I believe meaning behind the games was fulfilled with fun and laughter.

W.O.T.P SPA Signing

*Taking a break from writing bout the wedding, since we have not received the photos yet* We have secured the purchase of W.O.T.P few months ago and we were too busy to settle for the Sales and Purchase Agreement signing. Finally on the 22nd of Jan, we made appointment with the lawyer to have the signing exercise at Wilson's office. Why 22nd of Jan? We did consult wofs.com's almanac to select the auspicious day for contract signing, and thus, 22nd of Jan. We were greeted with 2 big stacks of SPA papers and the lawyer slowly explain to us what were we signing on each documents. The lawyer is a little blur in her explanation but nevertheless she did tell us what's essential. Well..well.. even though it's not our first time signing SPA, but it's still necessary to know what we're signing. Since the legal fees are all bear by the developer, that includes the loan agreement legal fees as well, so we simply signed both the agreements together with the devel...

Pregnancy Updates: Half way there!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now! It's a halfway milestone and it has been really smooth *touch wood* so far since the beginning of 2nd trimester. The vomiting and nausea seems to be gone overnight as I moved into Week 14. The very day my iPhone app congratulate me on my milestone, I felt a gush of energy rushing back to my body. And, for the first time in 3 months I felt... hungry! It was such a great feeling, I got ready to work and before heading out, I put up joss sticks to thank god for this miracle. And I kept my fingers, toes and everything crossed this feeling last. I bet my baby is a very punctual baby, just like the daddy. So with the deadly morning sickness gone, I am feeling myself again and started to enjoy the pregnancy much. My rhintis seems to get better after hubby installed the air purifier in our room and I get good sleeps every night with clear nostrils. My bump is showing and everyone is quite surprised to see a bump at just beginning of 3rd month. I research...

Bali Trip Day 2

We woke up the next morning, feeling all fresh with the gentle cooling breeze and chirping of the birds outside the chalet. As we opened the door, we were thrilled by the tropical Bali feelings round the chalet area. These scenes were so familiar, in the movies, magazines, novels, commercials, cafes, clubs etc.. the "Bali" style; now we're experiencing it in person. - Abangan Bungalow - - Our chalet a.k.a villa - - The walkway in the hotel - - Other types of villa - We ordered our breakfast, scrambled eggs, toasts, fruits and coffee. It was a real relaxation having breakfast at the chalet balcony, looking at the greens. I love this feelings, away from hassle, away from workloads, away from problems. Ah, so divine. :) - Relaxing on the couch, outside the villa, after breakfast - After breakfast we took a stroll down at the Ubud streets. First I saw the signature Bali gate, I was thrilled! "Take photo! Take photo!" I shouted.. So, I posed and took photo. Then, I p...
