One month's

Save the best for the last...that's how i would describe our marriage..ahh,
corny!

What i'm saying is actually, save your love after the marriage...yes, he put up
strict rules during our 1 year of courting that irritated me at first..no
dating, no phone calls, no romantic lines..i almost thought that he wasnt
serious...until he told me that he's coming to ask for my hand with his
family...and that was after one meeting with him about 5 months back

We were introduced by a mutual family friend and honestly, it didnt cross my
mind at all that thing's gonna work up..aint saying that it's an arranged
marriage though cos after the brief hello, we were left to decide on our
own..nobody tried to interfere or anything like that..

We let Allah decided for us...i prayed and asked for guidance from Allah..and
slowly HE showed me the way..so does him..

Even as i was annoyed with his insensitivity and lacking contact, i put my trust
in HIM..deep inside, i know he is the answer to my prayers, an imam and someone
who loves me more than i do who showed it in a very subtle way.. it's not like
we never argued about that but after a while (with long explanation from him), i
realised that he's simply following syariat for future 'baiti jannati' (ok, i
lied....i still grumbled once in a while,lol!)


Fast forward to now, i'd say we're happily and blissfully married.. all the
sacrifices and patience finally paid off..it's so much like save the best for
the last, isnt it?

(Dont worry, there'll be no P.D.A from us)

Wedding


The wedding as what i would like it to be...simple but merry with happy faces
and good laugh from loved ones... the solemnisation was held at home as i
requested (thanks abah) and went smoothly...i should thank my sweet girlfriends
for being there to witness the moments (and made silly jokes that takes the
jittery away)...honestly, i didnt feel like i was getting married but rather
playing dress up with the girls...no emotional tears or anything like that, i
said my silent prayers...but it took me more than 2 minutes to actually hold my
husband's hand for 'membatalkan air sembahyang'..at that time, reality hasnt
sink it that i am finally bonded to this man and it's ok to touch him..drama
queen!

It was a beautiful reception not because of the make up or home decoration...but
rather seeing friends and family, all celebrating and enjoying themselves (or
so, i hope!) together with hujan rahmat...we created guestbook to cherish those
who came and will keep all the best wishes safe..i do hope that everyone who
made the effort to come all the way enjoyed themselves in every
way..alhamdulillah, everything went well eventhough it's raining and i was
afraid that we couldnt serve the guest on time because we prepared the dishes in
traditional way...to those we helped out, may Allah bless and reward everyone
justly..
