We are married! Alhamdulillah! I've been anxiously waiting for this day since forever. It's not just about getting married itself but also because of the Covid-19 pandemic. I was really worried if the lockdown is happening right before our wedding date that we have to postpone our wedding. But alhamdulillah everything went really well and smoothly.
My wedding preparations were not all plain sailing. I believe that everybody had their own hiccups with their weddings and mine was the preparation. The initial plan was to invite a total of 1700 guests but due to the pandemic, our guests were reduced down to only 300 guests. And the initial plan was also to nikah on the Friday night (2/10/2020) and the reception on Saturday (3/10/2020). But in the end, we combined both ceremony only on the 3rd October 2020. And alhamdulillah everything was all okay, almost perfect and i couldn't be happier about it.
Thanks to our Tok Kadi, Ustaz Shamsuri as well for being as supportive and ease everything for us regarding the nikah matter. All we did was just submitting the borang nikah to him and then just meet him on the nikah day for the solemnization. Simple as that. No tricky questions for the groom, no fuss, no nothing. May Allah bless Ustaz Shamsuri.
Also thank you to our family for being so understanding about the pandemic situation. We had to cut down a large number of people who can actually attend the wedding. The feeling was awful but we had to it for the sake of everybody's health and safety. Many thanks to those who helped us with the preparation of the wedding, gave us wedding presents and everything. Thank you to our family and our closed friends for being there. I appreciate every one of it. May Allah bless all of you for eternity.
To my family; especially my dad, my mom and my sister, do not worry for i am still the same me. There's no such thing as me going somewhere else or to the other side of the world just because i got married. I will still love you the way i was (even better) and pray that i will grow to be a wiser and stronger woman starting from now on. InsyaAllah. Amin YRA. To my in laws, i promise that i will take care of Affiq Emara like how i take care of myself. And i will make sure that his love for his family will never go any lesser. InsyaAllah.
To my husband, Affiq Emara, may our unity makes us more of we are and not less. May our love grows each day and we lift each other's soul for the better. May we both tolerate and complete each others' life until the end of time. We've come a long way and have a longer way to go. I pray that this marriage will hold us to our darkest hours, encourage us through days and nights, may we forever see each other as a blessing and may this marriage unites us in Jannah. InsyaAllah Amin YRA.
And for our honeymoon, we decided to just go for 3 days staycation of sun and fun by the sea at Avillion Port Dickson and Lexis Hibiscus Port Dickson. It was worth every penny. And we were both really happy. Though all we really did was just eat and eat and sleep. Hahaha. We are not going to live together for the time being since i'll be at Putrajaya and my husband is working and living at Melaka until i don't know when. But we will get through it together. Please pray that everything will just be fine for both of us. InsyaAllah.
