Sarikei 2011 - Ah Fook's Wedding

The reason to why I went back to Sarikei this year was because my cousin (from my dad's side) is getting married! Haha! I was told to become their bridesmaid 2 nights before the wedding. Initially, it was supposed to be my cousin's role. However, my aunty was saying that I should be the bridesmaid since my cousin experienced it before too. Haha, so in the end, I became the bridesmaid. Without further ado, here are the pictures that were taken!

(Majority of the pictures that were taken were by my cousins as well as their girlfriend which means that you will have the opportunity of seeing what happens to both sides of the family.)

She also have to give her parents tea to express her thankfulness for raising her up.

After a while, the groom as well as his friends would have to drive to the bride's hotel (because that was where she was staying) to pick her up.

Along the way, my cousin and his friends would have to play some games in order to "gain access" to see his bride.

So for the first game, the guys would have to choose the different envelope and follow the yoga poses that the picture shows.

After that, they would have to put on lipstick by themselves and write I <3 U on the paper that was provided using their lips.

Baby koko was not able to take part in this event because he's allergic to lipsticks!

Then he would have to sing Bruno Mars - Marry You. I KNEW IT! Haha! I think it was kinda obvious! Haha

The next stage: 酸甜苦辣。(sour, sweet, bitter, spicy)

If I'm not mistaken, that's lime juice. Haha.

Then, they told him that he would have to give them RM999.99 (If I'm not mistaken, it was money, not the number of red pockets. Don't remember.)
Haha, he got everything ready already! Haha

The very last thing that he had to do is to shout "I LOVE YOU, AH CHOO" in 10 different languages. Haha.

It was kinda hard at first to hold up her entire dress because it was so long and there was too many layers. But after a while, I think I got better at it.

Getting down the stairs was the hardest! I was trying to avoid stepping on her dress! But I think I stepped on it like twice TT Sorry.. Haha

They drove around Sarikei once before going back to the house.

They had to bow to the elders. I think it was to show respect to them as well as the eldest approval.

HAHA! IT WAS A CANDID! Ah Di koko's girlfriend took this picture. I only realised after she took the picture :( but at least it was a nice candid. I hardly have any "nice" candids. Haha

After that, they had to go to the room that was prepared.

After that, they had to drink tea in the room so that in the future, they would always be kind and loving to each other.

A nice picture that was taken by one of my cousin. Haha, I don't know who because there were a lot of people taking pictures!

A suitcase that shows the belongings of the bride.

They got little kids to jump on the bed after that. I think majority of you would know the reason even though you have never experience this before!

It is so that they would have children in the future.

Then the children have to urinate in the red bucket so that the couple will have a baby boy in the future.

Welcome to the family!

After completing my task as their bridesmaid, I went back to change into my ordinary clothes because the dress was very uncomfortable. Initially, the dress was for my cousin because they didn't know whether I will be back from Aus by the time or not. So then when they decided that I should be the bridesmaid, they made some changes to the dress. That is why the dress is a bit long. Haha.

My aunties were like, "Angie why so serious. Smile la"

In the end, the picture turns out to be like this. LOL
