Cousin Cheong's Wedding

I wished to post this as early as possible but circumstances didnt allow it. So here is it now.

6th July 2007, Friday. Family members from the south that expected to present all had arrived in the afternoon. We spent that remaining day looking around my cousin house and having a tour to the famous landmark KLCC.
Next morning. The morning. I rushed from my brother house in PJ to Wangsa Melawati only to just missed the "Fetch the Bride" groom's group. Aye~ guess i have to stay at my cousin's house along with a few relatives (most that went are youngters and those young at heart).
An hour or so later, and they were back with the bride. And since i was the youngest male relative, i was assigned to open the car's door for the groom and bride. So we all relaxing and preparing to go to the church for the wedding ceremony later in the affternoon.
OMG, notice the black oily stain on the bride's dress.
No problem. With the combined ingenuity of experienced aunties and a product from Amway (really, but forget the name), the ugly stain was removed speck and span. Wedding embarrassment adverted :D
Moments later, the tea-serving ceremony began. Tea were served to the elders while the younger ones served the tea to the newly weds. Most, if not all wished them to be "productive" early. *snigger*
To the church then. A few minutes drive, we were ushered into a newly build commercial lots where the church located. Nice interior huh.
Let the ceremory began. Oh look- cutey flower girls from the bride's family side.
Followed by the bride and her father.
Nope, this not the groom. The couple were seated as the groom's brother, Cousin San, a pastor himself gave a well thought and witty speech about marriage. "I do" Those words were spoken by the groom and bride respectively. Not before my cousin spoke some moving words that reduced the brige to tears. Aww~
And the rings exchanged to seal the marriage. Pretty obvious izzit :P
Well, i not sure what this called for i not familiar with the Christian wedding. But i understand the to two candle represent two individuals now joined as one as the middle candle.
I pronounced you Husband and Wife. You may now kiss the bride. Haha, the moment we all, groom included, waiting for. Photographers in frenzy.
Two families are now one. Congrats to both. :D
Straight after the wedding ceremony, we went for the wedding dinner at Chow Kit, KL (shoot, i forget the restaurant's name.) Too bad by this time, i didnt shoot more pics since my camera batteries ran low and there's food to enjoy :P
Before the dinner ended, the groom and his bro took the opportunity to sing along to a love song. Too bad there's no encore as the groom was too shy to sing again.. lol
So there was it. What an eventful day. Again, i wish the newly weds a big congratulation and live happily ever after.
