We were invited to attend Salina Saibi's wedding on Sunday. If you must know, as I spelled out her name and all, she's an actress who mostly involved in Dato' Yusuf Haslam's productions. Although, I must admit I haven't seen any of her stuff myself but I've been told she's a main cast in a drama titled CID 3278.

She's also Kim's sister-in-law.

It was rather nice of them to invite us as one of the esteemed guests of the bride. We were placed at the 'VIP' table and all (which was situated next to the said Dato's table y'all!). I sat next to Normah Damanhuri who later gave up hers so that Mira could have her own chair. She went over to the darker side the groom's side to entertain other guests. She's also the bride's aunt, you see.

I saw other actors and actresses here and there but I can't really name them as most of them are from the more younger and newer generation.

It was an experience, though. At one point, I felt as if the wedding was more like a PR event. As soon as the bride and groom took their seat on the dais a few photogs came up so close to them to take pictures. Like it's some kind of a photo shoot, ala paparazzi but not quite. Because they were all invited as Press, you see.

I didn't bring along my camera. I only snapped a few using my pathetic RAZR camera, which you can find them here, just for fun. I *so* need to upgrade to a new phone with at least 3 mp camera.

But I digress.

I took the opportunity to 'order' my BIL to help snap a few close up of the newly weds (like the one you see up there). LOL!

And her wedding dress, make-up, dais, caterers, the works, are all sponsored. How I wish some one sponsored my wedding ten years ago. I would not hesitate to organize a lavish event! Hehe. But because we had to fork out most of it from our own pocket, our reception was as simple and without much fussed lah.
