It's been months since my last update. I've been busy with my wedding, job, moving house, etc etc
Yeah.
I got married ! :) My husband , Mior Hamzah and he is the love I've been waiting for *insert gedik smile*. The one yang paling penyabar layan kerenah seorang Liyana. :') we've known each other for like a year and I literally told him , we should get married in August.. Thank god he agreed.. Lol
The nikah was on August 17 and the sanding on the next day. It was beautiful . With the help from the relatives, family, friends, everything seems to be able falling on its place although they were a lot of hiccups. this was the first wedding in my family so a lot of things were unexpected for us and I guess there is a first time for everything to experience it. .
Anyways, money is king when it comes to wedding. My advised would be no matter how simple you want for your wedding, that is not your decision to make.. *insert small sad laugh*
Now my mom knows it's better to use catering instead of trusting someone else and more like rewang to do the job. Of course rewang is so much better with all those nostalgic feeling and everything, but we do not have a lot of relatives in Johor. My late dad was from Melaka and my mom is Sabahan. Allthough my relatives from Sabah did came, (oh gosh only god knows how I appreaciate their presence to be there all week helping my mom and me.) but you will try your best not to make them feel like they are not the guests; and guests should have not do all the work.
At least we learned that hiring wedding planner is a better choice for a small family like mine.
For my side , we chose deep blue as our wedding outfit. I love it a loecause the color will hide all my fat. kahkah. Apparently that is not how it work, you still need to lose weiight, guys. Which I only manage to do it arounf 3-5kg. After the wedding, I gain all of it back. lol
We decided to do the majlis bertandang on the groom side in November. So on November 4th the ceremony was held in Bota Kanan. My inlaws decided to use wedding planner - it includes the pelamin, pengantin outift, dewan and catering for 800pax. My husband got the deal for only RM12k. For me that was a wonderful arrangement. You will not get the same price in KL or even in Johor.
I wish I did the same thing in August.. The fact that we only need to settle the doorgift and photographer really makes everything looks smooth. My inlaws only needs to bring the doorgift the day before and everything was already provided. Even the pelamin looks good. Oh btw since we did not found any baju yang menarik hati on the same boutique, we decided we will rent it from KL.
Thank God we found a cheap renting service for wedding dress in Melawati. Every Bridal we researched will charge 500-700 for L+P sepersalinan and need to pay extra for accessories. Arora Bridal in Melawatin only charged us RM350 with accessories L+P. And the dress o.m.g . When we first pick it up, we did not really think it through because since it's wuite reasonable price, what is there to complain. WE chose gold brown dresses and wallahhhh the outfir looks amacing when you wore in the Hall due to the lightning. I am not trying to brag, but that dress is comfortable as f. sejuk pun ya tak panas kain dia. Arora Bridal actually is a tailor. Usuually bridal boutique byk hantar baju to them. Then they decided just to do it on their own since there were customer would like to wear the dresses they tailored but do not have the budget. So they tailored a few and rent it out.. What an amazing idea.
It's been two weeks now since the majlis in Bota. Still rasa in newlyweds phase haha. I really don't know what is my next plan with my husbamd, Mior. We have a lot of plans like traveling, buy a house or get a new car, or invest in anything but it's not solid yet.. We need to start from 0 again nak kumpul duit lagi sekali.
Lastly, may we all get the happiness that we prayed for. Salam Maulidul Rasul ! :D
