A ‘Renewal of marrige vows’ event…
Whew! Just came back from Malacca, where the ‘renewal of marriage vows’ event was held. On 5th May, Saturday, I had to wake up at 6.45 am…omg..feeling so sleepy. Reached A Famosa at 7.45 am….all married couples who have been together for a very long time, say…40 years?, have to be there to renew their marriage vows..( oh yeah, i forgot to mention that its an all Catholic event,that’s why you’re confused about ‘vows’ thing…sorry..)
It’s nice to see 50 over couples standing together side by side. After photographing session, all of us, including the couples, have move to St. Theresa’s church for mass. It began at 10am. There’s where the couples renewed their marriage vows. My great grandparents were there as well, as they’ve been together for an amazing 73 years! It’s amazing they’re still together till this time. Looks like they’re suited for each other….I hope I can find mine!
Haha!
At night, we went for dinner at my cousin’s school hall. The dinner’s an attribute to the day’s event. It was 8 pm, I had to do the video shooting…..come on, pick someone else, please! :P You may think the school hall is just like any ordinary school hall, but no! This one’s fully air-conditioned and had 2 storeys. Wished it was my school! Sigh….
I’m surprised, because Malacca wasn’t this HOT as before. Yup, just like in desert….31 degrees Celsius all day long….. sweating all day long, had to take cold showers at least 3 times….
To all married couples there, Congratulations for staying this long with your loved ones…..Hope you will continue to have a happy life! Cheers!
