26th December 2009

This day will be one of the best moments for my family. Today was set as the day for my sister's Guo Da Li ceremony and my dad's birthday. 2 happy events happened at 1 day. I was appointed by sis to take some photos during the Guo Da Li ceremony. Guo Da Li is a ceremony where both parents handed the dowry before the wedding day. Bride's family will prepare the traditional ang pau for the groom and his parents, new beddings for the newly weds bedroom, wedding lamp, sweets, clothes for groom and others. My brother-in-law's parents reached our place around 7 something in the morning. They also brought over some ang pau, 2 bottles of VSOP, a pair of candles and jostick for prayers, oranges, wedding biscuits and others. I created some collages using new technique I learnt from photoshop. More photos in flickr. Enjoy!

Today was dad's birthday as well! We brought a cake for him to celebrate with my second aunt which came over to enjoy the jovial ceremony. Dad was happy with the cake hehe... Yum Yum ^_^
