It is decided that we are going to have both nikah and sanding ceremony in 1 day. And mind you, my sanding ceremony is not dinnertime, but rather, lunchtime.
This is because we plan to have the akad nikah at the masjid in the morning, and prefer to keep it as simple as possible. So it is totally not worth the money to have 40+ rombongan on the guy's side from Taiping (the grandma's house) and to spend on accommodation (we are looking at service apartments, and the rental rate in Penang is not that cheap...and need to book 10 rooms at least). Not to mention the nitty gritty things that the rombongan has to think about, e.g. lunch, dinner and breakfast for that day...these small2 things if add up can be rather costly on them, and on us as well.
And plus, the guy's side prefer to have everything settled all in 1 day.
The question is, will I be able to pull it off? This means we have to kick off the akad nikah ceremony as early as 9am, or the earlier, the better. 8.30am maybe? My dad said tak pernah orang buat awal-awal macam tu. On the other hand, my friends said buat aja even though tak pernah dibuat orang. If not how to make it in time for the lunch reception?
Hope everything will go on smoothly...even the slightest delay is going to affect the sanding ceremony...I'm praying hard so everything will go on as planned...insha Allah.
