Azlan’s wedding ceremony

I went to Kota Belud yesterday to attend Azlan's last-minute-call wedding ceremony. The event actually started on last Friday where on the night they were having Majlis Berinai but Azlan only informed me at 7 p.m on Friday about the event. (Majlis Akad Nikah has been held on the bride's place in Kelantan earlier.)

I went together with Amar and Yee and the 45 minutes journey to Kota Belud started at 9 a.m and we arrived on his house at about 10 a.m. After a quick makan-makan, we were having a long chat with him since it has been almost one and a half year since we last met him. It was surprising when he told us that he only knew her wife for less than a year before they were getting married. Wow! Like the old sayings, jangan tunggu lama-lama, nanti diambil orang.

*The rest of the entry will be in Malay since I'm having difficulty to translate some 'wedding terms' to english.

Acara bermula pada pukul 1.30 petang dimana pengantin lelaki, yang lengkap berpakaian tradisional suku kaum Bajau, diarak (Majlis Berarak) menaiki kuda menuju ke tempat bersanding.

Kuda pun pandai bergaya!..Zorro pun kalah ni!

Suku kaum bajau juga dikenali sebagai Koboi Sabah (Sabahan Cowboy)

Isteri menunggu di pelamin!

Apabila sampai saja ke destinasi, ketibaan pengantin lelaki disambut dengan 3 das tembakan senapang (ke udara, bukan pengantin tu yang kena tembak..hehe~) dan sejurus kemudian diangkat ke atas rumah untuk bersama dengan pengantin perempuan.

*couldn't get many shot on the "pelamin" since the lighting was a bit dim and my stupid flash was insufficient to light up the space, plus a lot of guests & wrong choice of lens*

Majlis akhirnya selesai dalam sejam kemudian. Pukul 3 petang, kami berangkat pulang ke Kota Kinabalu.

Selamat Pengantin Baru

Selamat Pengantin Baru kepada Azlan b. Abd. Rajim dan isteri~
