I got married guys!

Ya ya I know. It is too late to be writing about my wedding now.

I got married 3 and a half month ago, on 28.4.18.

My wedding was held in my hometown in Mentakab, Pahang. The solemnization was on the night of 28.4.18 at my parents' house and the wedding reception was on the following day at Dewan Sekolah Hwa Lian, Mentakab.

I like my wedding. It was simple but it made me feel content and satisfied. I tried to be thrifty, to not spend all my money on the 2-days-only event but I spent about RM15K and this amount did not include the hall rental and food for the guests. I had no idea what I did with that 15K when the big thing was paid by Mak and Ayah.

I'm going to show you bits and pieces of my wedding.

Here is my solemnization outfit. A baju kurung modern stitched by Irina in Bangi. I bought the lace online from an instagram shop, @jizanlykl and the lining was from Jakel KL.

Syazwani got me this custom made hanger. Totally love it!

Got my wedding shoes from Christy Ng physical shop in Mytown.

My make up was done by Alin Azrul. I requested a fresh look for my solemnization.

My gorgeous flower bouquet was by @the3r_. 

Hidayah helped to pick up my hand bouquets from them in KL and delivered them safe and sound to me. Thank you babe!

You know how customized items always make girls go "auwwwww that is so cute".

Well, I am no different. Love my robe and room slippers. The robe was from an online shop which I bought so long ago. It was the first wedding related item that I ordered. The slippers were from my #ipohclan girls. They got me that for my bridal shower. They have a matching eye mask too. 

I have always wanted a garden themed wedding. I got one for my solemnization. My garden themed dais is from Diana Gallery, which is based in Jerantut but they cater for Mentakab and Temerloh as well. 

I had my solemnization doorgifts in green and white to match the theme. 

Family members and relatives wore shades of green whereas my bridesmaids wore brown. They fit my theme perfectly :)

Simple deco for the stairs which I did myself

Bridal Shower #waniXazhar

I am getting married, soon!

This is my first blog entry for 2018. Life has been hectic. So many things to do. Work, wedding stuff, social commitment, planned vacations and family events.

A lot of people are asking about my wedding preparations. My parents help me a lot. I am so thankful for that. They receive help from my extended family, the AKJs. If it were not because of them, I'd be a bridezilla by now. There are just too many things to do. A lot of small trivial things that have to be look into. My mum apparently is an organised person. Now I knew where I got my trait from. Haha

Back to the topic, the reason I am writing this.

My girlfriends threw me a surprised bridal shower yesterday. I was so happy, oh still am until now.

We made plan to meet up yesterday since both Iffah and I will be around in KL this weekend. We planned to have tea at TWG in Pavilion.

Hajar and I took Grab car from Cheras. When we reached, Hajar said we were meeting Iffah and Lala  at Sephora. Little did I know that they have booked a make up session for me. That was a total surprise!

Feeling pretty 

Anyway, the white and red outfit was planned (in case you wonder why we were colour coordinated).

Then we went to TWG where we finally met Lala and Iffah. They were not there in Sephora earlier as they were preparing this for me :

I was truly surprised by the bridal shower. Thank you so much girlfriends. You made me very happy. 

Friends for life! Missing Atil and Irma.

They got me a gift as well, the bride kit. Each of them wrote me a letter with advices on married life. I am going to cling on to those letters and refer to them again and again in future. Some of the things inside the kit will come in handy real soon, LOL. 

I would also like to thank Jai, Syed and Radzi for being such cool husbands for my girlfriends. They took care of Alisha, Ilhan, the twins Danial & Darwish and Sarah while the mommies showered me with so much love. Thanks guys!!

After that, Hajar and I went to Duck Cosmetics. Guess what. We got 20% off since we wore red! Talk about coincidence and good luck. It was my lucky day :)

Till the next time I get excited to blog on something, XOXO.
