Brother's Wedding


Hola!

In this post I'm going to share on my brother's wedding. 

The funny thing was I had a misinformation that their solemnization took place on Thursday night instead of Friday night, and I already applied for an off-day on that Thursday night. When my mom told me that the solemnization would be on Thursday night because the Qadi would be busy on Friday, I was just agreed and applied for the off-day on that night. Geez, the struggle was real when I had to change my working schedule since it was totally a misinformation. I was so thankful that someone had been able to change his working schedule and replaced my place. Thanks Zahari. 

During that big day, my family agreed to wear something pastels. Luckily, I got a peplum dress on sale. The hardest part was finding my husband's shirt. Due to the fact that he refused to wear something in long sleeves, I had to find a mint color collared shirt with short sleeves, plus, with a nice material a.k.a fabric. Lucky for me that I found him the said shirt but a little bit unlucky for him because I bought him a wrong size shirt. So, it's like :-

Color : PASS
Sleeves : PASS
Collar : PASS
Dress code : PASS
Size : FAIL

Well, it was a long-way journey to return it back. In addition, I had already washed and ironed it. So, with my cute smile and a sincere apology, I just hand him the shirt (with the wrong size) and let's head to the wedding. (:




I'm not really sure whether mom's holding a baby for practicing since my sister is pregnant or she really wanted a grandchild. :D

Suka betul abong.



Jadinya, kita pinjam kerusi pengantin sebab bukan senang nak pakai baju warna sama ni.


A personal OOTD after married is not a seizable offense isn't it. (:

Thanks to my brother and my sister because they were actually keen to have our families wore a same dress code according to the theme. As for me, when my friends asked what they were going to wear on my big day, I just told them "just wear something nice as long as you feel pretty and that's fine with me." Same goes to my family as well, I don't really have a theme for my wedding. Just wear something modest, comfy and nice. Honestly, I really enjoyed dressing up according to the theme or dress code of an event. Somehow, on my big day, I don't have time to think about what others are wearing. lol. (Sadly, I even forgot to put on a veil during my wedding. lol)

Till then, 
goodbye.

The Settlement Hotel, Melaka

Hola!

Today I'm going to write about my experience staying in The Settlement Hotel, Melaka.

First of all, I really loved such a vintage and heritage-like boutique hotel. I went here after a day or two after my marriage and I would like to consider it as our first honeymoon. Since this hotel was very near to my house, meaning, it was still in Melaka, so personally, I would considered our future trips and vacations as our honeymoon too. (:

Secondly, I actually planned to go to Bali, Indonesia. Somehow, it was too far and I don't have much experience traveling by air plane, plus, not enough savings to go there so, let's just forget about it. lol. 

Thirdly, I have to work few days after my marriage because I'd just being promoted to a full-timer Sales Advisor in my workplace and we were strictly forbidden to have a paid leave. 

Okay now, back to the hotel.  


The hotel's building is quite small, located in the city center.

This is my ultimate goal in every hotel reservation - the bathtub. 

I just love the interior. Simple and antique enough.




Just my stuff.
Ordered for those cakes.

...and beyond expectation, we got this!
Thank you so much, The Settlement Hotel for this Honeymoon complimentary red velvet cake.
We went out for dinner at a nearby restaurant. Just enjoying a good-night stroll.
Well, nothing much to share on our night-life in here since we were extremely exhausted after our big day event.

The next morning, we were enjoying our delicious breakfast together and enjoying the scenery in here.






















I had a great experienced staying in The Settlement Hotel. Thanks for the complimentary Honeymoon cake again and the complimentary massage. I loved the room, the scenery, the breakfast and price was affordable too. RM200 per night with breakfast of your own choice. There were nearby restaurants just a few walking distance away.

I guess that's all for now.

Thank you.
