Lina and Rizal II (Bersanding/Ambil-ambilan)

"Selamat Pengantin Baru"

After a very eventful Saturday night of being surrounded by close friends and family, picture sessions and the tinting of Henna, Hajah Lina awoke on Sunday morning, July 29 to experience her Majlis Bersanding. The Bride was groomed by her make-up artist and got dressed into her Bersanding outfit. Her custom-made baby blue and gold songket was designed into a baju fesyen. Her matching shoes were also custom made. Her make-up artist for the day was Haji Yasin. The bride wore her hair up in a twisted curl updo and completed her wedding attire with her waist-length veil and a white gold and diamond tiara. She also wore a white gold and diamond necklace as well as earrings to match her tiara.

The family opted to wear a theme colour and decided on the bride's favourite colour, Purple. The Groom arrived to proceed with the ceremony. Upon arrival, the ritual of Pusing si-naga was done followed by joining his Bride on the wedding dais (Pelamin). The Bride & Groom then made their way outside walking down the red carpet for their guests to see them.

Resting for a few hours, the newly weds braced themselves for their final ceremony, Majlis Ambil-Ambilan, the final chapter of Hajah Lina & Rizal's wedding. On this particular night, the bride favored a long lilac evening gown which was made of lace and satin. Her make-up for the night was done by Haji Ali. She had her hair set in big curls and finished her hair do with an extraordinary hair band. The groom opted to wear a white shirt, grey tie and a black tailored lounge suit. The banquet for the night was for invited guests only which comprised of family and close friends of the bride and groom. Tables were set up outside and the compound was flooded with colourful decoration lights. Before enjoying the spread of scrumptious dishes, the newly-weds cut the wedding cake and had plentiful of guests eager to have a taste. Towards the end of the lovely evening, the bride and groom danced the night away. Although this was the last of the wedding ceremonies, and the end of the wedding celebrations, it is the beginning of a journey of marriage for this lovely bride & groom.
