I try reading before bedtime. One way to stay away from gadgets before your bedtime. A healthy thing to do. I used to read bedtime stories when I was young but the habit vanished as I grew older and now I'm starting it back.

I have been married for close to a year and wow.....how time flies so fast. But, the wedding that I had reminded me a lot of the people who has helped me throughout the process. Before I got married, I dreamed that one day my best friends will be my maid of honor and bridesmaids and I'll be driving a Ferrari on my arrival (well, that didn't happen isn't it) and alhamdulillah the dream came true (not the Ferrari part *gasp* ).

I can say syukur that the group of friends I have did not disappoint me (well, minus what we argued in high school) and I'm glad that these are the people who gave me guidance about what is right and what is wrong, people who I can turn to during hardships. Most importantly, they always remind me of Allah. They don't judge my past and who I was.  And now that I'm in a middle of change, they supported me all the way. I can never ask for a better friendship than this and for that I thank you *you know who you're*. Looking forwards to many more years to come.

Mix with the noble people, you become one of them; and keep away from evil people to protect yourself from their evils.”

 (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

It was almost the end of the reception when me and Juan decided to play around with the pelamin. It was too pretty to resist. It was simple yet shimmery. Me like very much. It's like a fairy tale wedding. Aww.

Wearing skirt bought in Time Square, 3/4 shirt from Brands Outlet, heels by Vincci, tudung bawal borrowed from Dianah.

It was another weekend for a wedding in KL. We drove down on Friday and arrived past midnite. The drive was smooth but there were a lot of buses and lorries. Even cars were more than usual. I presume it was because the start of the school holiday.

The wedding venue that we attended was held in Restoran Zam-Zam. The hall was newly renovated and could accommodate up to 1000 guest at a time! The hall is also equipped with LCD TV that can be connected to a camcorder so that those who were seated far from the main stage can watch the event live on the LCD. Surau is also provided as well as makeup area for the bride and groom to get ready.

We arrived earlier at the venue to witness the akad nikah of the bride and groom. The nikah reminded me a lot of during my nikah session. But this time I didn't cry during the ceremony because I was so busy on the phone. It was less than 15 minutes before they were pronounce as husband as wife.

The highlight of this wedding was definitely the food. I believe this is the best nasi kenduri I have had for a very long time. The kuih that was served after the nikah, before the wedding lunch, was so delicious that my mother-in-law took a few popiah and shared them with me. I kid you not. Everything was so good that I'm sure that I have gained a few pound. Ahhh, who cares. 

The bride's wedding dress was also stunning, made from light colored songket. I asked Juan if we could get married all over again.. Huh...
