The Wedding Gift

If you attend the Malay Wedding ceremony you would feel astonish how the family preparing for the wedding. There is no simple wedding. Everything seems to be extravaganza and cost thousands of ringgit. People used to say once in a life time to spend for luxury. Hhhmmmm......if you have money it would be fine. But dont force to borrow money from Ahlong, Ceti or others. Sometimes wedding can be a form of business. As for me, evwrything seems scary how would I handle when my children are going to get marry.

The wedding would be incomplete if there are no gifts from both parties i.e the bride and the bridegroom. We also called them 'hantaran'. This is where the creativities come in. No need for me to elaborate further but the picture can explain everything. The wedding is also incomplete if the is no 'sirih junjung'. Anyway this is culture that reflects the life of a community.
