Alhamdulillah. This afternoon i attended 3 weddings with my beloved father. My mom had to stay at home since she can barely move around easily after the hip surgery.
The 3 events were kampung kenduri-s, so you can expect no hired caterers there, only villagers working as crews for the events. They cooked, they served, did the dishes and everything to make a succesful kenduri. Some of them are distant family members of the bride/groom or might just be anybody living within the same village. Usually the immediate family members will not join the crews but instead dress up with same color/tone as the bride/groom to greet and thanked the guests.
The atmosphere was different to be compared with a wedding held at a local hall/community places. You could clearly hear those chit chats from behind and around you, if mak cik bawang is around, or there will be a deejay in charge to make everything loud and happening. Plus there were no cutlery sounds at all haha since we all eat with our right hand.
Not to forget the earth we were standing on is muddy if it rained days before the kenduri, that it splashed to your baju kurung and the shoes you're wearing.
Going home after three kenduri with full tummy and dirt stained sarong was truly an amazing experience.
