The Akad was held at the SIET Sports Pavillion - Teynampet, Chennai on 06-06-08 after Maghrib prayers, here are some pictures...had a great time here :)
this is a nice horse carriage ordered by the Groom's parents specially to take them around after the akad...we decided to take pictures before the akad...thank god we did, it was gone when we got out!
Check out the groom's shoes, its missing, yeah thats what we the cousins did, we took his shoes when we went up for photography, the earlier session, actually it was Muna and Sabrina who acted on impulse and we demanded for 10,000 rp (well this was for calling us the cousins "not aggressive enough" the night of the Mehandi, during our negotiation. The story goes like this, we pulled Noria away from him as he was not suppose to meet her as per tradition and we told him we will give him 15 minutes, if he takes us all out for dinner at Pasha - a happening place in Chennai & if he danced!! hahah, well he did dance, but ran away leaving us dancing away!).
He didn't want to give in to our demands and had to proceed with the dinner (at the end after all the guest have gone home) & the family photography session without the shoes...but we had a traitor among us! My cousin Aasif (the bride's brother) snatched one shoe off from us - because he had in given his shoes to the Groom during dinner and he was, in turn left without a shoe (no one asked him to!!), and we were left to negotiate for one of the remaining shoe, Muna actually sat on the shoe (covered with plastic of course), to ensure no one can snatch it! that was really funny...even Granny was on our side for once! she was having fun...finally before going home, he came and sat with us and negotiated back for his shoes, and we made 5,000 rp that is like RM500! ahahha...kewl huh? we could have gotten more if Aasif didn't betray us!!
Here's the family picture and on the last line is mama with her brother Uncle Ashraf and wife, Aunty Nasreen, then Mama with her sister Aunty Sophie and Mama with her brother's wife Aunty Shammi
Thats the "keypoh" cousins clan, Sabrina (brown), Shaz, Natasha, Rasha (green) & Muna (red) and Aasif (the only guy + traitor!)
