Small Jiu Jiu Big Day, the Dinner Reception

The much anticipated Small Jiu Jiu’s big day made its grand arrival two weeks ago. Both the dinner bash and the tea ceremony were held at our hometown, with a 2 days break in between. We took the opportunity to plan a short trip to the hill resort nearby; knowing how much a vacation would cheer Samuel up.
We do understand, with all the mobility restriction and the err… 'less' attention he’s getting for the past months, it’s hard for Samuel not to whine a little about it.

We drive down from Penang on the Saturday morning and reached Bidor right about 2 something for a late lunch. Everybody had arrived, including Yee Poh from Singapore.
Although the day itinerary was only dinner later in the evening; we hardly could find any free time to kill. It’s busyness madness having to get everything in order and everyone ready looking handsome and pretty.

Of course we managed to though.

Samuel and Hanxin looking all handsome as the Page Boys

Baby Alaina is still too young to walk as the Flower Girl

Some final touches

All poise and ready

Walking down the aisle to the music beat

With all seriousness

Safely led the newly wed couple to their table

There were a lot going on during the dinner. Daddy was busied behind the camera. Yee Yees and Jiu Jiu and Po Po busied with hosting.

 

While Mommy juggled between the baby and stuff

The kids busied themselves with iPads

and err... chats

This is one of the more proper photos taken

As for the toasting and family photos… that’ll have to be continued in later chapter.

We left early as Alaina was calling for her bedtime …

 

Looking all chirpy and bubbly and happy in the hotel.

Yup, there’s a new hotel in town; presentable and decent. But the reservation service needs some serious nudge though.
