Wedding ceremony, AM
The groom & heng tais (chinese for groom's good friends/brothers) are getting so unsporting these days. They know that there is a time factor that eventually determines the nbr of 'games' that the chee muis (chinese for bride's good friends/sisters) will get them to do thus I've been to few weddings where they would purposely come late, or pretend that they are not interested to 'take' the bride. Sab's wedding was no exception in some ways. The groom and heng tais arrived not too late, but they actually took their time and 'attacked' the food prepared by the bride's parents instead of 'charging' in demanding to take the bride. When we eventually got the ball rolling, only 2-3 out of 9 of them actually actively participated! But I must say that 1 of them, KC the 'macho' contractor, did a good job in getting himself tormented :)
But to Loli & even my standard, the eating games were really easy-peasey. Nothing too difficult - the wasabi spread was not enough, the lime juice/vodka was only a shot glass, the bittergout juice had too much water. Plus we cut short some games coz they don't seemed to be able to do 1 of them correctly and wasted time. The heng tais should actually be thankful that Loli didn't plan it. If she did, we would have tubes of wasabi stuffed in banana, bird-eye chillis, vinegar, cyder and other really torturing food.
Hmm... No wonder my Beary's afraid of following this wedding culture!
I don't have any photos of the event that morning, but I have some which I took from 1 of the most torturous heng tai food-games I've ever been to:
-Raw egg into salad consist of smelly beans, celery and 'petai'
- This photo did not include the banana stuffed wasabi though! That's really da mother-of-all-food-games in my opinion!
