Just a quick update from Lisyen's wedding last Saturday (29/09/07). It was sunny but breezy, clear blue sky and the weather just absolutely beautiful...
My friends and I as the wedding committee arrived around 8:30 at the venue. We set up the tables, the decorations, and the food as well. Met Lisyen in the 'back room' where she was hiding and oh-my-goodness.. she looked absolutely gorgeous! Went outside to meet up with Agus, the groom and he looked stunning as well :) What a gorgeous couple they make!
Anyways, the ceremony ran late because of the so-called culture of Indonesians 'ngaret'ness. So if you put 10:30 on your invitation, please expect them to be there at least 10 minutes late. Despite of it, it was a beautiful ceremony. Of course Lisyen's siblings successfully made us cry (tears of happiness, of course) on their surprise speech for the newlyweds (good job cici, mingki n alung!). The Sunday School kids also sang a song for their beloved 'oma' which was really really good :)
The ceremony ended with lots and lots of food! And of course photo sessions with the newlyweds :) oh and by the way, I caught the bouquet - and NO it doesn't mean anything! I don't believe in those kinds of myths!
After the newlyweds left the building, the committee cleaned up the place. We ended up with so many left-over blue cupcakes that we have no idea what to do with them at all! So... one of us (I can't remember who) had a brilliant idea of taking those 4 trays full of cupcakes down to the streets and gave them away for free... so we did exactly that and in 15 minutes, it's all GONE! :)

...the cupcakes and fairy flosses as silent witnesses to the special day...
In conclusion (gw kayak lagi bikin essay aja gitu), it was a beautiful wedding... I want to congratulate the happy couple for their new chapter in life and all God's blessings that lie ahead of them...
Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Agus Joewono!
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres...
