Weekend Wedding Part 1

Last weekend, we witnessed the momentous

& joyous wedding of Fikri and Syazwanie.

Fikri or fondly known as Iki is Jack's cousin. On Friday was the akad nikah, which was held in Cheras, at the Masjid Alam Damai. Let's start from the beginning. We arrived in the nick of time, about half an hour later than the scheduled time.

Luckily, when we arrived, the groom was just about to take his place, in the mosque before the akad nikah ceremony.

Settling down.

The bride's turn to take her place.

All settled and ready, waiting for the big moment.

Wonder what's going on in her mind at the moment.

Practise, steady Iki!

The father of the bride, hmm good luck Iki, he looks pretty fierce to me!

Ha!ha! Sorry uncle, just joking! 

The real thing! Akad nikah vows being exchanged between the

father of the bride and the groom.
