The wedding banquet was held at the Kuching Hilton ballroom, no less…
…and as you can see, it was indeed a really posh and grand affair…
Even the table setting was impressive…
…and this was the wedding cake…
I did not take the photos of the newly-weds cutting the cake but I managed to snap one of the couple pouring the bubbly champagne…
…and one of the two with their parents proposing a toast to all the very distinguished guests – family, friends, and colleagues alike…
I was pretty impressed by the food as usually, when you hold functions at high-class hotels, you end up paying for the ambience and everything else and what they serve may be somewhat disappointing. The dinner that night was great, starting off with the Four Seasons…
…which was nice and I liked the fish too…
…and the prawns were good as well.
The Szechuan Duck came last, just before the dessert, but I did not take any photographs of the other dishes as the lights were somewhat dim and it was near impossible to take nice pics without using the flash – which I do not like as the colours would turn out rather unnatural. The duck was really very nice though; actually, I was already so full by then but I loved it so much that I just had to have a second helping…and a third…and a fourth…and a fifth… LOL!!!
There was a jazz band in attendance to entertain everyone with music and songs but by special request, Kpg Nangka Boy had to sing a song for his bride and guess what song he chose! Eric Clapton’s “Wonderful Tonight” which he said was the only one he knew in the band’s repertoire…and he got his two bestmen – TheOtherCousin and Jeremy to be his back-up singers…
Now, don’t they resemble the 3 Tenors? LOL!!!
By the end of the dinner, everyone was in a “jovial mood” and the party went on and on…all night long. It certainly was a great start to a lifetime of happiness for the lovely couple…
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
