March 2012

It's the month of the 1st event that I have planned 6 months ago - MERISIK.
Merisik day was requested by my family as they strictly wants to follow N9 adat.
FYI my grandpa is datuk adat in N9 and as datuk adat, it would be a shame if his own grandchild does not follow the custom kan kan?
Lagipun, I always dream of a traditional wedding and I feel it is important to have this merisik event so that negotiation can be made with a present of family members with all the saksi to avoid any dispute later later on kan kan?
So MERISIK is on, yes requested by my side, but the date was chosen by Hamim. As mentioned in previous post, he wants it to be on his birthday, the last day of March which fortunately fall on Saturday lucky him.
Benefit for me having merisik day on his birthday is, we gonna have makan2 sponsored by Mama&Baby *laukkampungnocateringipromise:)*. I will only have to buy cake for him. At first, I plan to hire a candy buffet service but I no longer have the budget *sad*. So I'm just gonna order petite cupcake from Wondermilk and fruit topping pavlova and maybe a simple 1kg cake.
Since I request not to have 'sarung cincin moment'. I know some people do it during merisik but I prefer not to, so I'm just gonna wear a simple Jubah I bought super cheap from Bandung last week. It's a black jubah with heavy manik on the chest. Not sure if I should go to saloon for hair do, but it's all depends on budget.
I hired FOC photographer to capture the merisik moment -NANI, and she requested makan sedap2.
I said of course, N9 delicacies super power pedas hell for you Nani, just as you like it.



*can't imagine myself wearing jubah on one of the important event in my life.
