PLANNING A WEDDING … ( A supposedly my brother’s ) - a very LATE post

My brother told me yesterday that he has found the girl that he like to spend his life with .. after searching and searching and yes … searching, finally he met one, and like the old use to say, that you don’t have to search your soul mate so far away … He found his at our Kampong in Cibungkul ( location see below ..lol).

My mom was so excited ( everything that has got to do with planning a party .. she got excited), so like usual she told me to prepare lists of :

1. Kebaya – the traditional Javannese gown. ( For our side and the Girl’s side )

I’ve browsed some Kebaya for the families and of course for the bride. What I have in mind is something chic and simple but Faboulous …..

2. Wedding Invitation

I used to think that wedding invitation were soso or not so important, but you can have fun with it

3. Wedding Souvenir

My mother have thought about it thoroughly .. its either a hand towel or beauty mirror

4. Venue & Decoration

The venue is at our place, and it’s a morning till noon party

5. Wedding Cake

Have to be good

6. Food

12 side dish and 8 main course ( or prasmanan )

7. Seserahan ( I don’t know in English – it’s where the groom bring stuffs to the brides )

Consist of clothes, shoes .. etc

8. Wedding Ring

@ years after the wedding ....

They have 2 kids, a girl and a boy, and have to tell that their marriage are not easy, lots of adjustment, mis communication and fights, but I believe that they want to stay together because of love and kids.

Lesson Learn : Marriage is not for everybody, but if you decided on it, stick with it at least and try hard to make it work.

FAVORITE STYLE OF THE YEAR : INDONESIAN CIREBON BATIK

Indonesia has lots of cultures, from the variety of foods to its traditional clothes. One of them is The Cirebon Batik.

Like any typical places in Java, Cirebon has its own style in the Batik art. It's mostly got something to do with the drawing or the clouds, or mega. And it's as beautiful as any other Batik in any other places in Indonesia.

And that is why I'm searching for the style of the Cirebon Batik a year ago, the wannabe designer in me always have the urge to once again live up my childhood dream.

And since the fabric is so flowy and thin ( but of course with a good quality), it's good to wear at the tropical weather like here.

So I hope you enjoy looking at some of my design, please go to the FB page. http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Dnins-House/167428916602432
