Persembahan Gamelan during Wedding Reception

Dear Diary

Longgggg waayy to go (My wedding) tapi I've been thinking about lots of wedding stuff sekarang nih. Taw.. saye over excited. Lately nih Aiman pon macam menyampah nak dengar. Balik keje je tunang die cakap psL kawen, pegi keje-cakap pasaL kawen, nak makan-cakap pasaL kawen, jangan trauma dah la! huhu Well, nih La problem nye kalaw study x bape hectic (semester just started kan.. keje pon tak banyak) and kat office ter-sangat la takde keje (rase cm makan gaji buta da skang nih!)

So, now I'm in a choosing-my-wedding-theme mood. Ha.. sejenis kumpulan mood jugak selain dari moodie, happy, excited, etc. Hehehehe.

I plan to have two different themes for reception and majlis bertandang. Plan nak buat traditional dekat my side (because me orang kampung kan. So easier to me-realisasi-kan theme nih) while modern/English (la sangaaattt) theme for side Aiman.  Or the best pon, we switch - meaning that- mine would be modern theme while classic/rustic utk side En Aiman.

Reason : I'm unable to find a gamelan group to perform during my reception at Kampar. Unable bukan sebab tak ade group, tapi sebab most of them are based in KL/Selangor, so kalau Sya gigih jugak nak ade gamelan performance la bagai-at Kampar, then I have to bear with the extra charges (accomodation, transport, etc.)

But still, I have contacted some of them (masih gigih!) and glad that I am now aware (kira up-to-date la konon) about Gamelan groups and prices offered. I've shared here some of the Gamelan Groups that you might want to consider if you plan to have Gamelan performance for your wedding/reception.

Unfortunately, price quoted for Gamelan Performance At Kampar, Perak starts at RM2k ("BERMULA DARI" ye rakan-rakan). That makes me think more than twice! huhu. tu belum kes my angan-angan nak ada live band, live feed, dan segala macam jenis live! Owh..memang KIV la jawab nye! huhu

But, jangan tak taw yang sekolah pon ade team gamelan jugak taw. If you know Mamat Khalid (yang buat citer Hantu Kak Limah tu. orang perak memang suke sangat La kat die kan..! hahahahaha) mase reception anak dia kat Impiana Hotel if I'm not mistaken, they hired this group untuk perform gamelan. They are group Gamelan from SMK Raja Chulan~

Rasa-rasa mahal tak kalau nak hire dorang? Rasanya tak kan la kot kan.. budak-budak sekolah je. Perform pon untuk suka-suka/minat. Bukan nya bisnes. (sendiri wat hypotheses)

So, Interested?
Please contact pihak sekolah (kate nye..). Sya malas nak contact sebab lambat lagi. Kang school principle tanye "Bila wedding date?" terkujat-kujat lak nak reply (terkujat?bahase ape nih???haha)
