So
we are getting married! Excited and obviously nervous for our future life
together. Meanwhile Im trying to cooperate with the sensation of being a
wife-to-be, how about I share with you my
wedding preparation. This very first post for our big day will share
roughly the whole plan for the wedding, including budget, of course! :)
1. Location
After
a very long discussion with our parents, the akad and small reception
(syukuran) will be held in my hometown or home village, Kerinci. Yes, it will
be held at Kabupaten Kerinci, Provinsi Jambi. Why? Because my parents wanted me
to get married at their own home. Eventhough I prefer Palembang, but they
insisted to have it at Kerinci, so what can I say? I do not want to be the
Millenium Malin Kundang. So, its fixed, Kerinci will be venue. Its at home,
near wide paddy field, people still use underground well for water source, near
Danau Kerinci and of course I can see Kerinci Mount from my house. It’s a
lovely village, InsyaAllah the ceremony will be the moment for my family to
gather along.

2. The Theme
As
a half blood of Minang and Palembang, I would love to see both combinations during
my wedding. Yes, I am going to have traditional ceremony for my big day! But
then, after long thoughts and discussions, my family agreed to have Minang
theme and the colour scheme will be red and gold. Yeah :D

3. The Date
InsyaAllah
its gonna be on Sunday, 14th
December 2014. Why? My family prefer end of the year since my sister is having
her long school holiday and fortunately, it’s a pretty date (tanggal cantik).
Hehe :)
4. The Budget
Should
I say the amount of cash to be spent on our D-day? Well, this would be shocking
enough, but InsyaAllah we will be very minimum amount of cash for a wedding since it’s a kampong wedding and we are practicing gotong royong for
the catering (most couples spend a lot on consumption). I will post one by one
on how I spend my budget.
Please
kindly pray for our big day and our future days of being husband and wife ya :)
-Soon to be Nyonya WDS-
