Donkey business
Nov 28, 2007 in Wedding-planner
My Maid-of-Honour, (let's call her YY for convenience's sake) was looking through the gorgeous cakes they sell at Choffles. Now for some reason Bridesmaids and maids-of-honours have this knack of being over-excited (even more so that I am), so our friend here was going, 'Oooh oooh oooh' at every other piece we clicked on.
'I love the figurines they put at the top, so pretty,' she said, referring to these ones here. (thanks Choffles, sorry yah I curi your photos to show off sikit.
And then we came across this one with the geese on the top! So cute!
'OK lah that's it, we make animal figurines for your cake!'
'Errr, dunno got budget to make cake or not…'
'Nvm I sponsor the figurine on the top of your cake!'
'DUnno got cake or not lah…'
Can one, You monkey Eric horse right?'
'Uhuh… but no money to have real cake lah…'
'Nvm I give you the couple dolls anyway, we mold as a monkey on a horse!!'
'Wha-'
'And I make sure the monkey wears a wedding dress and the horse wears glasses! Kekekkeke…'
-_-"
Then at night I met up with the fiance, where we drew up a simple excel programme sheet to document the order of the day. This is now what happens:
Bride to pin the corsage on the donkey.
Pardon me, but why are animal signs such important things in Chinese weddings?
