Our Traditional Wedding Reception

This is our traditional wedding ceremony which was held in our home town where both of us spent our childhood and also the place where we had our "Puppy Love" when I was in my "teenage".

In Indonesia we called is as " Nguduh Mantu" where we as the husband and wife re-had our wedding reception at the different place ( we had the holly matrimony and first reception in Bandung) through this reception my parents who stay in Pekanbaru announced our new family

Because the reception was held traditionally ( which was different with our 1st reception in Bandung) there were so many different things occurred. For example, there my parents also decorated my house with "reception things such us the bride&groom bedroom which was fully decorated) then the way we entered the building and also the main one is the stage which used the "Minangnese traditional wedding stage"

The 1st Picture was Niasnese " Groom and Bride" where my daddy comes from.. I chose Red because it is my favorite color..My parents bought this clothes in Nias Island because there are only a few vendor in Pekanbaru ( or even in other places outside Nias) provide this clothes..

The second pictures was taken where we've already changed the clothes..we wore " Minangnese traditional costumes" where my mom comes from ( so I was born in two different cultures family) and the "special" one was the " head jewelery " that I wore in my head..its called "Suntiang" and the weight is about 2 kg!.. it was so heavy and I tried hard to keep it stays...hehe..o ya once again i had the the Shocking Red one..in this pictures you can see my beloved parents in law and our cute nephew: Tabitha
