Tips2 Menjadi Pengapit yang Cemerlang

Haha, title mengong mintak pelempang ...

I just wanna share my experience jadik pengapit, actually I read a few good advice from Miss X's blog ... At least ade la sikit preparation (mentally) before I jumped on the plane & leave for the wedding ... But seriously, it's a lot harder than you I expected ... You can set things in your mind, what you should & shouldn't do ... But bile sampai time event, there's a lot of things going on ... & you can't really control everything ...

So here's a few things you can do when you're holding the responsible as the Maid of Honor:

1. Perfect Attire

Standard advice - 'jangan lawan pengantin' ... Tapi jangan la terlampau simple sampai nampak mcm nak pegi class/the bride tangkap muat one of the guest suruh tolong kipas ... Baju bride's maid jugak main peranan to complete the whole look of the combination - the bride's & groom's attire, pelamin & the theme ...

But actually, you should really consider a comfortable outfit ... Something that will be easy for you to run back upstairs to fetch anything t'tinggal, & whatsoever ... In my case, aku kene turun bawah check kete pengantin dah sampai/siap ke belum & run back upstairs ... Jangan tanye ape fungsi best man itu, nanti bole menimbulkan kemarahan ...

Base on experience, memang rase agak selfish sebab lebih mengambil berat tentang kain yg meleret2 compared to the bride ... & the bride kind of taking care of herself ... So, comfortable dress is a must ...

2. Extra Large Handbag


Jangan ngade nak kutuk handbag merah aku yg attention stealer tu, sebab ianya memang dibawakan khas utk the reception ... Sebab dlm tu, bole letak 1kotak tissue ... 2-5bijik henfon, & extra shoes haku skali sumbat dlm tu ...

3. Extra (Comfortable) Shoes


Because you will be standing for most of the time, so aku suggest korang bawak la extra shoes/sandals ... & more, sebab korang kene tunggu a few hours sampai majlis selesai ... It's a relieve to have a comfortable shoes to survive the rest of the evening in the hall ... & lagi la kalau korang pakai kasut baru yg menggigit2 itu  ...

4. Proper Arrangement

Seeloknya, standby tissue/baby wipes bagai in position before the event started ... Suruh la sape2 letak tissue/baby wipes tu somewhere nearby the spot u're standing, supaye tak nampak mcm kau hangkut kulur-kilir baby wipes tu ...

Muke suspen tissue dah habes ...

Pastu handbag tu pun, sepatutnya di arrange properly ... So xde la appear too much in the picture, sampai jadik foul item biler select picture to print ...

& lagi ...

Sebaiknya, dtg tengok the hall/setting the night before or the morning before the wedding ... So bole request /arrange for something ... Like ask one of the bride's maid standby pegang hand bouquet mase merenjis ... Or find the perfect spot utk letak tissue, whatsoever you need during that event atas pelamin ...

5. Emotionally, Physically & Mentally Prepared

Make sure you have enough sleep, tak payah nak beauty sleep sgt ... Just enough that your face didn't look dull, & you can strike a proper pose for the pictures ... In most of the pictures, I look fat & hunched back because I was not standing properly ... So make sure you look good, because bride's maid/best man are photographed as often as the bride & groom ...

I guess that's it for now, emo jap endon dah goal ... Come on guys, I don't wanna hear Indonesian songs all day on Hitz ... Cukup la kat Hot fm jek ... Nite ~
