The USsenal Wedding

The ideal of The USsenal Wedding originated from our favourite soccer team. Nevertheless, our favourite team is definitely Arsenal FC.
Alot of my friends asked me :''Why 'USsenal' and not 'Arsenal', was it a typo error'?
Well, the US in 'USsenal Wedding' stands for the 'two of US' as well as 'Unique & Significant' - which represented the feelings towards our relationship throughout these years.

Most importantly, it represented the club that we both loved so much since our dating days.
Arsenal - always Unique & Significant to the both of US. Cheers (''.)

Wedding Customs?



Customs definitely play a big part in defining in what's called a a chinese wedding ceremony. Some are interesting while some have raised some funny questions..

1) Exchange of birth dates and family tree.
Well, I believe this is more for the olden days where couples were decided when they were a child and long before they may have met each other. Thus, families could only count on such methods to make the, supposedly best choices possible for their children.

2) Gifts to the bride's family.
Some tradition still require livestock. LOL.. imagine me bringing a Sri Lankan crab to Woo's Villa..

3) Setting up the bridal bed
More to changing the linen will do...

4) Bride's gifts to the groom?
Havent really heard of this yet

5) Combing hair
Yes.. yes.. for the bride exclusively...

6) Picking up the bride on wedding's day and tea drinking ceremony
This represents a gladiator's test of wits and determination and of course, filled with a lot of fun. Handsome Shrek to the rescue!! Followed by would be the tea drinking ceremony.

7) Bride leaving home
Don't forget the red umbrella

8) Bride arriving at groom's home
Tea ceremony. Why are there no games for Fiona to rescue Shrek??

9) Church wedding
To get married in the grand old Glory Church has been a long life dream, especially taking a big family picture on the grand staircase!

10) Wedding banquet
Ang Pow time and some yam sengs. Soak in after a day of fun filled event with good food beloved friends and loved ones. A thank you speech to our beloved parents and also a chance to finally walk up the stage with Jing and offer a toast to everyone! Finally!
