They had 5 Bridesmaids and 5 groomsmen. The bride and her bridesmaids along with Bride’s mom, two aunties and her grandma danced and sang to wedding songs and got ready in the Bridal Suite in Marriott hotel. The groom, his mates and groom’s father kept on drinking and joking around whilst getting ready in another suite on the same floor. This arrangement made it easy for the photographer to travel between the rooms to capture photos of both sides getting ready.

Bride Newsha has some advice for future brides;

Delegate tasks to people to help you out and don’t micro manage. Know their abilities and delegate tasks accordingly so you don’t have to stress about every little details.

Stay hydrated, make sure you order healthy and risk free food that your body is used to digest. You don’t want to walk down the aisle having cramps.

Nominate one person from bride’s side of family and one from groom’s side who knows all the family members to be in charge of photos so you have photos with all family members.

Leave the photos with friends for when guests are having dinner, go to their tables and have photos with every single one.

From your wedding dinner ask the staff to save you and the groom one dish each and take it to your room so you can eat after the wedding. I was so excited to dance I couldn’t eat even one spoon of the dinner which everyone said was the best food they ever had.

It’s useless to say not to stress because you are going to stress regardless of my advise. But I want you to know that as soon as you walk down those stairs it will be a whole new world, stress free with so much love and laughter. After all Annette is planning your wedding, Yok is looking after your party for the night and Lisa is doing your makeup, you have the best crew helping you to have your dream wedding, you have nothing to worry about.

Make sure to enjoy every second of your wedding day. The best part of my wedding day was  getting ready with all my bridesmaids my grandma my mom and aunties in the same room. We all live in different parts of the world so all being in one room and dancing and laughing and getting ready was the highlight of my wedding until I got ready to leave the room, then walking down the aisle and seeing the groom’s face was breathtaking for me, I will give anything to relive that few minutes.

After celebrating the start of their happily ever after life together the couple spent their Honeymoon in Malaysia and Singapore
