Oh. Tomorrow is 1st of December. What’s the matter? Actually, it was a date of my wedding reception at my parent’s residence last year. Alhamdulillah, everything was completely fine. When I recalled back those sweet memories, I know this meaningful day will not happen without tireless help from my families and relatives. The day really makes me busy to meet every attendance and I deeply ask for the forgiveness if I have indirectly not pleased everyone for all the deficiency.
OK. This coming school holidays will be an abundance of wedding events. Many couples took this opportunity to end up their engagement or friendship with a blessed and blissfully bond. I took about 9 months in advance to plan everything about the ceremony and here I make an action list that may be elaborated further for your own wedding event.

I took about 9 months in advance to plan everything about the ceremony and here I make an action list that may be elaborated further for your own wedding event.
- engaging “mak andam” and the caterer
- buying the hantaran
- booking a decorator for the hantaran
- booking a wedding photographer
- booking an MC for the event
- buying souvenirs and gifts for the attendance
- searching for kompang team somewhere around the residence area.
- surveying wedding cards available in market for good design and value.
- preparing a name list for the invitation and releasing the cards a month before the ceremony
- preparing a signboard and place them along the road side at reasonable spot
- planning and booking for honeymoon package
- reconfirm and check every single action that has been made
Further to the actions, here I would remind you all for some critical issues that I think is very crucial and some people just take it for a granted and somehow it can spoil our big plan.
- Always keep the receipt for whatever expenditure that you have made. This can be very useful for estimating your total expenditure and how to re-plan your spending.
- Always clear and understand about everything that you have booked. For example, you might need to know the breakdown of the expenses that mak andam has offered. If possible, write it somewhere so you can retrieve back if the mak andam try to manipulate you.
- Always keep every contact person in your handphone. You may need them at anytime. For example, while you are shopping for the souvenirs and gifts, you accidentally look at a bunch of beautiful fake flowers. Then, you can get some feedback from your mak andam for which design or colors you should avoided making it consistent with the wedding theme.
- Always make a research before make any attempt to buy something.
- Always know your economy limit so that you will not over spent for minor things especially with current economy turmoil. So, spend wisely.
- Always keep in mind the wedding event will be your first and last experience in your life. So, try to make it a little bit special compared to the others. For example, one would prefer to spend thousands for her/his car but very stingy about the wedding ceremony.
- And finally, Always enjoy and happy with your wedding otherwise everything stated above are meaningless.
In memories. Kajang. 1st December 2007.
