The day after the wedding, we decided to have both our immediate families join us for tea at home. We ordered pizza, bought some muar chee, put out the Raya cookies we got from our neighbour and the Piece de resistance: the pretty wedding cake that mom, sis and I worked on. The chocolate cake was fantastic. The others also really enjoyed the bottom layer fruit cake which mom made.
Soon after, we packed up and headed to KL in preparation for the second wedding reception for my husband's parents' close friends. His relatives traveled down too to spend the week with us. My mother-in-law made a lovely roasted pork belly, mushroom soup and stir fried some vegetables. The youngest grandaunt made some ginger chicken as well. Needless to say, we had much food leftover as it could have fed an army. :) We handed out framed photos of us to my in-laws and my husband's grandmother as a souvenir.
The Second Big Day: I just love the pink and pretty flower centrepiece! The view overlooking the golf course was magnificent. My in-laws had catered from Tai Thong which meant that the food was superb. I was so happy that this dinner, we didn't have to run around to change clothes and that there were fewer guests so we could enjoy the food more! :D We had some unforgettable performances again that night. My husband's youngest grandaunt, Aaron and Addie were gracious enough to treat us to their lovely voices again, we also had songbird, Pearly with her beautiful rendition of The Wedding (Ave Maria), and last but not least we had a very touching performance from my mother-in-law accompanied by my bro-in-law/emcee on guitar of a very meaningful Cantonese song.
A view of the entrance to the Room. We had a slideshow of our photographs outside on the registration table. The parting gifts were very yummy Beryl chocolates and the pretty heart-shaped soaps which we also gave away in our first reception. I just loved the floral arrangements.
We had a stunning unplanned grand finale of fireworks! We gathered at the window and watched fireworks light up the night sky. What a night to remember.... :)
Many thanks to our families, friends and amazing photographers for helping us capture these moments in KL and making the day so fun and memorable for us both!
