It was a super long weekend for me n my fellow buddies who are helping out CC n Ade in their marriage. We met as early as 4am in th morning as they are a teow chew family, n its their tradition to "jie xin niang" at the wee hours of the day. I was also "luckily" called upon to stay overnight with the groom as it also another tradition. Though we didnt really "stayed overnight" at all, all we got was approximately 1hr of sleep. :).
We set off around 5.30am. half an hours behind schedule coz his mum went to get pig leg which was also another tradition... Well, the delay was good as we can use it as a excuse to play lesser sabotage. *yeah!. We reached woodlands around 6, n was greeted by the first mission, which is to shout out loud to the bride at the 6th level, "Laopo, Wo lai jie ni le!" This was jus the easiest task of all, more to come when we went upstairs.
Right out of the lift, the sisters passed us some skirts. Supposely for tht brothers to wear. Luckily i was rather chubby, lol, hence the skirt didnt fit. ;) Hence no need to wear for me. lol. They also offered a plastic bag for the groom as they "didnt want to stain the suit" Mmmmm.... Actually tot it was some "dirty" game. Then, turn out it was 'pass the stuffs around with ur month game'. Actually it was rather easy but the one beside me was KB.... The very "qua zhang" one... The first task was to pass a glico porkey accross using our mouth. (For those who nvr see the video, imagine u are taking a glio commercial, n u have to do the extremely big movement to ur mounth to eat it. N thats KB...) Porkey was easy, but the ext one is disgusting! We are suppose to bite a duck's butt across... Luckily i got to bite the other end of the butt, n KB have to bite. lol When u are thinking duck butt is disgusting, next to come up is chicken butt!?! This time its so small, when we pass it, its almost like we are kissing... *Yucks!?!?!!?!?!?! Luckyily this time i am passing to CC so not really that bad, considering the disgusting KB... wahahaha
Next we had the "Swan Tian Ku La" It rather typical but as we had not much time left we wanna bluff our way thru n offer the "ang bao" we had. but the "sadistic girls" jus wanna see us eat up the stuffs, we no choice. In between asking for "angbaos" too. So in order to save the biggest angbao for the last event, we started giving out the small small ones... Untill we reach the last game which is to open the door using the keys kept in a container of cockroaches..... Although i seems very disgusting, but there were actually 5 of the "xiao qiang" so it didnt seems hard... But wat happeb next is the powder one, coz i kinda say sabo the girls by throwing them into house, in the end he really did it! Most girls were screaming away as he do it, but one girl stand out by picking it up n throwing it back at us!?!? lol *power*
After the door was opened, its the norm like kneel down, speak the wedding vow... End up we have to rush back to CCK coz the timing to meet is 7am. The merc driver did a very good job in reaching on time. I can feel that he is weaving thru the traffic which is rather congested at tat time. Being task the cam man driver is no joke man. I have to drive at relative speed to the bridal car. Which is easily 120-140km/h. Finally reach CCK then we have to "Gin Cha" which is quite a while before we set off to bottle tree park. (See pic below) Where we took some pretty funny shots. Maybe CC should give us a copy of the montage. :)
After that we went back to CC place for more "Gin cha" before we go Ade place. This time the driver drove more slowly n we took some pretty nice videos n pics. Reached Ade place was more "Gin cha" then they drove around before i send some of the Sisters back. Its a long long day for me. Hence i took a short nap before going back to Ade place. (i think i took 15mins. lol) More talking n photo taking at Ade lace then we set off to CCK again.... This time is the last time, n we packed their bags to set off to Atrium Hotel (Old glass hotel) This one only when i got to return home to rest. As i got home i really rested. Or rather sleep. For about 30mins. Coz i reach around 3, n have to meet WS at 4pm. But the 30mins proved valuable, as i didnt feel sleepy much after.
Reached the hotel n most of them are already here. Helped out on the planning of the dinner. Briefing with the banquet manager n others. Check the system n test the mic. There was this pretty pro MC that Ade got,Apparantly its her poly friend. She really got this nice accent n suitable to take up the MC job. But no thanks to CC who gave her a script of his friend. End up she didnt even caught CC name... lol. N there was much mixed up. Luckily the manager gave her another set of standard speech to help her. We even rehearsed the kids walk in throwing the rose petals. They look real CUTE!!!
Finally all is done n we are ready to bring in the guests. The sisters did quite a lot of things like, photo book, scroll, pin board for the guest to write small things about the couple. Which i find it will be memorable when the couple pisks them up when they are old. To see their friends n family writings.
Food was not so bad, (not that i have eaten much coz half the time we were busy walking around) thanks to the rest of the people on the table saving food for us. The usual goes on n i took quite a few pictures. One small thing happen to the dinner was that the projector had a ghost image somewhere in the middle of the montage. Luckily it was ade pic so it didnt really matters. Some might think its a special effect. :)
Wat was ugly in the dinner was that i actually pick up a small short wire from my bowl of sharkfins!?! I couldnt believe my eyes. Hotel food got such things??!! I imediately brought the manager n gave his a scolding. (wahahaha) He replaced the bowl n ensureed that it will not happen again. (nose long long - pinnocio style)
After more food, photo taking, its finally time for all to go. We decided to go n "Nao Dong Fang"! Made his drink a bottle of wine first. Turn out it chicken feet for the groom. Then we waited at his room, n prepare the sabotage. Sabotage was to get the groom to lay down, get a cold egg n make the bride roll the eye from the groom chest to the end of his pants. *Must go thru the belt n only the mouth can be used* U should see the part where the bride is reaching "the part" lol super funny.
Next we have the groom turn where he have to pick up sweets from "stragistic" positon on the bride while she laid down on the floor. This is yet another "chicken feet" to the groom. But we did caught some "juicy" pics from tat. *eViL gRinZ* Last we have a banana tied around the groom waist. The bride is to peel the banana. Of course, the banana is at a "special" position....
In all, the couple is quite a sporting person to play all the games, with out much trouble. :) Next to worry must be JH n VV where they prepare to their marridge next year. wahaha.
I try to load the pics here.
