1st Time Attending Relative’s Wedding

Posted on October 3, 2008October 3, 2008 By sweet surrender 1 Comment on 1st Time Attending Relative’s Wedding

Surprise or not? *LOL* This is the first one, attending the dinner banquet.

Our family is pretty different, even if there’s someone got married, there’s no such big hu-ha about it. No tea ceremony, no banquet, no inivitation etc. Just a simple announcement by mouth that pass from one to another. So far, only two of my cousins got married in almost 10 years and there’s no such tradition at all. My parents always told us to keep things as simple as possible as they are not fond of all these hu-ha also. I know many people will open their eyes wide wide now hahaha… As we believe the most important thing is to get married legally and to maintain a marriage. Others are not important, no matter how grand your wedding is, if you don’t know how to maintain your marriage, there is no use also.

This one, caught me by surprise. It’s not a very close relative of mine. Just happened that my uncle(my dad’s bro) is the bride’s God father else we won’t be invited. The bride is actually my cousin’s cousin. It’s pretty distant hahaha… My bro and I weren’t invited but instead we went as representatives of my aunt and uncle in Singapore.


Since the bride’s father is a businessman who manufacturers one of the famous keropok in Kuching, there’s definitely keropok served on the tables.



Too bad, we were seated at the very very very corner, couldn’t really see the stage or anything. I had to zoom in until using my digital zoom. It didn’t help much also with so many people in front of us and the drink station was located just behind me where the waiters and waitresses would be blocking my view with their butts! Then the uncle from another table kept blocking my view by always going to the other table to talk, all I saw was his butt! Lots of heads too. Sigh…

That’s how it was. So I can only share food photos with you. Even the food photos turned out blurred coz I just simply snapped.

Left: Very salty peanuts.
Right: First time see this kind of combination dish. Baby octopus with kimchi under it, Hiyashi Wakame with jellysih under it and etc. According to the menu, this is called Prawn Salad Combination.


Left: Shark’s Fin Soup with Dried Seafood. Quite salty and as if something was missing. Hmm…
Right: “Dong Po” Pork, as usual, this is what you always got in Chinese banquet be it for wedding, birthday or association gathering. The pork was SO FATTY! *sweat*


Left: “Teo-Chew” Steamed Golden Promfret. Huge fish!
Right: Stewed Duck with Sea Cucumber. Kinda salty. Was full already…


Left: Prawn Ball with Fresh Scallops and Vegetables. Ate a bit only, full…
Right: “Tangui” Chicken, drank the soup only, everyone was full!


Left: Longan Cocktail. Something cooling for the hot weather.
Right: Something for the guest to bring back.

So that’s all 😉

Blogging since 2002. Anything before 2006 is no longer available. It is no longer on this server. Back then, I built my own blog and updated it using HTML. No database or anything. Only started blogging fully with a CMS in 2006. However, whatever was on the Internet will stay on the Internet. So... It should be still somewhere on the Internet. Then again... Why do you want to dig that far?
