Check them out, k.

For future couples that are still in planning phase, feel free to use my checklist. Sharing is Caring! :)


Caterer

And as for the Caterer, my family has got our eyes set on one caterer, they're called Anjung Serai Catering. MashaAllah, SEEEDAP sangat their food.

Jenuh kami cari caterer. My mom is very very VERY particular in food. Kalau lauk sedap, nasi tak lembut dan tawar, REJECT. Kalau nasi sedap, daging keras, REJECT. Last time we went to Pameran Pengantin at Ampang Point, of all the food that we tried, she was satisfied with this one caterer only. She said, "Mmm.. Sedap! K.I.V." Because she wanted to taste another caterer's work recommended by my eldest sister in Klang. Last Saturday, kebetulan they were covering for an event around my place, so they stopped by and gave my mom some food for her to taste. The verdict? Yes, you've guessed it. REJECTED.

So we've confirmed our caterer. Every 1000pax, they'll give us 1 kambing golek.. Heee.. I'll be having one kambing bergolek for my reception! Weee~

Oh, and speaking of kambing golek... Kebetulan jugak, my eldest sister tu mentioned that she took a name card of a caterer that provided really delicious food and their kambing golek is to die for. Guess again? They're Anjung Serai. So far, I've never heard of a bad complaint. If any you guys have heard any, please let me know k? =)

Oh yeah, I have to update my checklist! Ngeeee~

The Interventions

Hi all..

It's been more than 2 months since we've updated our blog. Really couldn't get our lazy bums to write. We practically had not much time to write. And here I am, stealing time after work to update this oh-sangat-kahsihan blog.

A lot of things that has happened. These are the few that I could think of...

1. THE Mom intervention
   
   Alright.. Initially, I was quite upset about this having to follow mom's orders stuff. Because it's MY wedding and I don't like people bossing me around. So ceritanya... Since I told Mak about Ministry of Moment (MOM) [read this post], Mak asked us to pull out from having MOM cover our both events (solemnization and reception). I was like..... WHAT??!! And she also said I should rent out my reception baju. And I was like......
   
   WUUUHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT??!!
   Tak nak! TAK NAK! TAAAAAAKKKKK NAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!
   (Well of course I didn't yell those words at her, or else there will be some domestic violence going on. Gimik je. Gimik...)
   
   But when we reviewed our initial plans, we realized that we actually wanted a simple wedding. Heck, we both ingatkan nak buat Nikah je, and to hell with the reception! What we care about is only to HALAL-ize this relationship. Mak really reminded us about that without even trying.
   
   So we straightened ourselves up and pulled out from Lynda and MOM (we decided to stick with them for nikah) with heavy... HEAVY... hearts.
   
   Mothers.. Can't live with them, can't live without them.. Haha..
   



2. The SHOCKING news regarding the Mom-In-Law-To-Be
   
   Not long after Mak's intervention, I received terrible news from Raziku. He said his mom is sick with Miller Fisher disease. Its an autoimmune that attacks the nervous system. But soon after that, doctors diagnosed her with minor stroke because her body is partly paralyzed. Sorry I can't describe her sickness much because I don't know much about medicine..
   
   But anyway, kesian kan? Thank God my Razi is strong.. I'm so amazed by you, hunny.. :')
   
   Friends, please pray that my future mother-in-law gets better and better... I want her to be there at least during solemnization. Because that would be one of the most important moments of his son's life!
   
   
   
3. The solemnization of Brother-In-Law-To-Be
   
   Razi's elder brother got married on 1st January! :) We'll have a triple wedding reception in end of July at Razi's house (probably).
   
   
   
4. The change of Vendors
   
   Since unfortunate but fortunate event 1 happened, we have a change of wedding vendors.

   (Credit: here!)
   
   *speechless!* And the wings! Urghhh!! They are just perfect!
   And guess what, I found those custom made on the net! Take a look:
   
   
   
   
   (Credit: here!)
   
   Just magnificent...
   
   
   But well... Later on my Mak basuh Razi and I sampai we thought it's simply IMPOSSIBLE to be done, so we changed the theme to.... *drum roll please*
   
   
   
   
   It's a surprise!
   
   
   
   Wait for it!

Feelings that I never want to Feel again

Okay, this entry probably has nothing to do with our wedding... but I'm gonna write it anyway.

At midnight, I'll be going to a place far far away from my robot misai jawaku. Yes, this is for the first time I'll be away from him since we're officially in love, and hopefully it will the last.

(Credit)

It feels so awful inside. I need a hug. :(

Oh how I wish we're already married (+ have tons of money, of course..) and take him with me. Dahla I'm going to Europe, which at this time of the year is in sub-zero temperature.. With no one to warm me up during the extremely cold nights.

By the way, have you read the news about how bad Europe is right now? Well, thankfully the Netherlands is not so bad... I hope.

Thank Allah that the duration of the training is reduced from 2 weeks to 1.

Friends,

Please pray for my safety going there, when I'm already there and when I head back home (literally and home = Razi).
