1st Experience of Solemnization

Attended Jayven & Joo’s ROM today.

The solemnization was in the afternoon. Woke up quite early thinking that I will be slowly taking bus to Flora’s house to fetch her. However, ended taking cab to her house. We then made our way to Jurong Point to have our lunch. As the weather doesn’t look good, we took a cab to the venue – Singapore Zoological Gardens.

We had to take a tram to the venue where we met the man, Mr. Jayven Ang… Busy with the people who arrive with us. Finally, he noticed Flora and I, and pointed where we can find the bride.

Joo was doing her hair when we went into the room. Her mum, dad and some of her friends were in there too. So we didn’t really talk to her while she was chatting with her friends. Moments later, her friends left the room and we passed her the present – a picture of both of them drawn in the caricature way.

The solemnization started sometime later with Joo, taking the horse carriage to the venue with her father, Jayven helping her down, guided by a little pony to the table. Then the JP conducted the solemnization and they signed the marriage certificate before us.

They then took photos with the family and friends and took the horse carriage again for a tour around the zoo, while family and friends made their way into the dining area.

After eating, Flora and I took a walk and we were discussing about our ROM which should be on our 99th month, 24/05/11. Yes, exactly two years after I proposed. Its time to start saving and planning and yes, with my lovely fiancée.
