Had a really tiring but fun weekend. Weijie’s sister, Michelle, and Wendi got married last Saturday. So was over at their house helping them with all the stuff. I’m their official video man, taking down all their happy moments and immortalizing them on tape. Weijie’s parents came down from Singapore as well. Went over their house on Friday, had so much to eat sia. Once I reach there, Weijie’s mum gave me rice and pork for lunch. Then had wraps for tea break. Later in the evening, a massive steamboat again, but quite healthy one, lots and lots of vegetables…ha ha!
The next day woke up early and got dressed by 9am. Got ready to take the first shot once the Bentley bridal car rolls in. The wedding ceremony took place at Kings Park, at a sheltered area over looking the whole Perth City. Although it rained early in the morning, the weather was perfect when the wedding started. It was just a simple ceremony, the exchanging of vows and rings followed by the signing of the certificate of marriage. The main wedding will take place in Singapore in December though. After that, they took lots of pictures before moving to a really nice French restaurant call Frenchy’s. The ambience is really nice, with 40 guests, the restaurant was just nice. We actually had the whole place to ourselves. My first time in a French restaurant, but the food is really fabulous. From the entrée of Caesar salad to the main Pork dish to the dessert banana crepe. Enjoyed every bit of it. To my surprise, the portion is really generous, not “French” at all. Then, Wendi sang a few love songs with his guitar to Michelle. Some sporting Caucasian guests sang too, this was followed by a mass dance session. Even Weijie’s parents dance too. And you know what, it was their wedding anniversary too….how nice is that! They had a really nice wedding cake too. For the custom here, the wedding cake has two levels. You eat the first level and keep the second till your first child is born. After that, then you can eat the cake. Amazing right, heard that the cake is made so can be kept for 1 or 2 years in the freezer…ha ha.
In the evening, went back to take some more pictures before we changed out of our suits and ties. That night, had dinner of pizza and seafood soup…ha ha!
Sunday morning, all of us had a little Sunday service f our own at Weijie’s house. Then, went to have the buffet dim sum again…ha ha! Quite a large group of us went, with both the Wendi’s and Michelle’s family. Yeah… so had a really good good weekend. Tomorrow’s school, off to finish up my assignment….ha ha! Congrats to Wendi and Michelle.
JOEL living for ETERNITY
