Are you Ready?

You have to condition the bride before the wedding so that she looks prettier. I took the bride to a SPA to have a whitening scrub and milk bath in a jacuzzi,back massage, facial and eyebrow uplift. It only cost RM200 for the whole package.Next is to give a flower bath to the bride to give the extra natural energy and aura.. The makeup artist will do the rest including the accessories that she has to wear for her wedding night.

Give Ang Pow

Dont forget those who had given their servies, so give 'angpow' lo. Get ready the 'ang pow' early in packets, so they dont see how much you had given them (ka...ka..ka).

Dont Panic

As the days draw closer, say 1 week, you will just have to review your works and action, including the guests list, food and beverages, tables and chairs, performance, dances, singing, multimedia presentation, sound system, PA System, transportation, accomodation, security, decorations, 'pelamin', door gifts,tasks for the Committee members, wedding concept, thank you speech, 'merinjis ceremony' etc and etc.

Knowledge Is Power

For those people who aspires to wed must first register themselves and take the marrige course with Majlis Ugama Islam (MUI). It would cost RM80 for a 2 days course. You will then be given a Certificate to register your marriage with the Jabatan Hal Ehwal Agama Islam.

If your partner comes from outstation, say other States, he or she must register at that State and send the documents to be registered at the place of marriage. I thought getting married is as easy as 1-2-3, but a lot of bureaucracy, isnt it?

They said divoce cases are increasing and the reason to organize such a course.

Whatever it is, the marriage registration should be facilitated as I understand it would also take some time for the documents to be registered!

Affordable Venue



Foyer Bangunan Sabah provides an affordable wedding venue if you want something different outside the Hotel and cheaper. You can do your own concept and deco. Lots of parking space and nostagic and historical and symbolic venue.
