Wedding (Ceremony): Tradition or Religion

About a week ago -during lunch time- me and some of the gals had this conversation about our colleagues wedding ceremony. 2 different wedding with 2 different ceremony except for the part where it was held according to Islamic way, since both of them are Muslim. 

What makes it different with them is that one of them adding traditional ceremony after the akad. The bride's parent are from West Java (Sundanese) while the groom's parent from Bali (Balinese). Each parents want a bit of traditional (cultural) ceremony for the wedding. While my other friend, other than akad, she just having a small party at restaurant.

The Widower

Remember my previous post about my ikhtiar in finding my Prince Charming?? Well.. I haven't found any, although there're several man messaging me (they falling one by one during the journey)  and we mailed each other, but yet.. way too soon to make any conclusion in anyway. I just hoped for the best and prepared myself for the worst. But that's not the thing I wanna share to you today. It's something else.

Joining that site and receiving several messages from various type of man was like an opening eye for me. Those man are really different from one to another. Not only their physical appearance and race but also their age, their job and off-course their marital status. From single, divorced, up to widower (with and without kids).

1st Wedding in 2013

About a week before New Year, I got a wedding invitation from my good friend who also my ex colleague. After in relationship for almost 12 year (Gosh!!) she finally get married. Horraayyy!!! 

I wonder how it feels, having a (almost) 12 year relationship. Did they really know each other well after 12 year? or is there something that they still hide from each other?? Anyway.. just keep that question for myself and let's just be happy to their wedding celebration ^_^

I like their simple invitation.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year 2013

May all our good hope and intention will come true.
