Ceremony at Bongek...Langsung & Bersanding

Sunday, 19th August...we made it to Bongek after the rain had stopped. We missed the berarak and kompang in Pedas due to the rain. And we missed this one at Bongek too. Well, just not my day. Perhaps next time I'd be able to see the berarak and kompang...now who's getting married next?

The bersanding and merenjis ceremony was over too. Hmmm...whats left for me to see and do? Never fear...Pa & Ma and Mami are here. They'll cook up something, I'm sure.

As soon as we arrived, we were ushered to the khemah for the makan...buffet style. We had lots of space as the main crowd/ guests have all dispersed, probably to another kenduri like we did. After makan, we went in to see the pelamin, pengantin etc.

We stayed till about 4.30pm as Pa wanted to do a pit stop at his kampung to see Wan and the rest of the family members who are back to do some spring cleaning of the kampung house.

So, here are the pics at the Bongek occasion.

The Pelamin...minus the Pengantin

Here they are...the Bride & Groom

Making an attempt to check out the pelamin...with Ma watching

Almost there...

Huh! No sweat Ma.

We managed to convince the pengantins for a group shot.

...and finally the pengantin lama

Despite missing some important event of the occasion, we truly enjoyed ourselves among the friendly company of uncle Li's family members.

Thanks uncle Li, Mami and all the family members...and Selamat Pengantin Baru to the newly wed.
