The final leg of the Farrish-Ida wedding has been completed. It went smoothly and well without any glitches. Congrats again to the bride and groom. As for me, I made my debut as kipas boy.
Well we all had an early start to the event. Early start meaning rehearsals. We did two takes. The first was probably just to see how the flow went, which is probably why the first take was long. Second take was a breeze. After the rehearsals, I went home, since it was nearby to get ready and shave. I didn't wear the suit from home though. Wore it at the hotel in Farrish's honeymoon suite. While I was there I helped myself to some grapes. While Ida was getting ready and waiting for the others to arrive we watch some TV. They were showing the making of Star Wars Episode 2.5. Looks cool as it was action packed.
Before heading down, we (bride & groom and best man & bridesmaid) waited for our cue to go down. And when we were down, we waited near the hall for the entrance que. Killed some time by taking some photos. Then Shah arrived as he saw us waiting outside. I passed my camera to him, since I wouldn't be able to take pictures while kipas-ing the groom.
My friends later mention that I was kipas-ing Farrish as if I was kipas-ing satay. Guess my Kajang roots had a role in that. Or maybe I do move at a different speed.
Finally it was showtime and in my mind I had the Joker's quote "and here we go". The hardest part for me was pacing myself, as I had to move slower than usual by taking smaller strides. On stage, did my part, kipas-ing the groom, cleaning his hands from the merenjis part and smile. After that was pretty much straight forward. Escorting the bride and groom to the main table and later after that to the cake.
Amryl gave the speech for the groom's side. Nicely done may I add. And he manage to keep politics out of the speech.
So finally the event was done. All the guests left except family members and close friends. Once the guests left, we took the opportunity to ask the live band to play some rock numbers. We just needed to rock and dance. Well Amryl and Shah were all out for it. And it was pretty much contagious as others began rocking. It is a sign that we are way overdue a karaoke session.
Oh, in case you are wondering, the bridesmaid's name is Arfah. I just followed her lead most of the time. She is a doctor based in Seremban. She was stunning that night and not forgetting to mention she has a great sense of humour. Chemistry wise, we did click. And yes, I did get her number.
It was opening day for the English Premier League, and my Spurs lost. But I had a great night, so I didn't really care about that. Last of all, my resemblance to Clark Kent / Superman didn't escape most people. So much for keeping it a secret.
