Last Saturday (3rd of June 2004), I trekked to Buckingham to meet 3 good old friends. I went to the newly weds' (Yan and Paul) parents house to catch up with the latest since they got married in China back in January 2004. I also met Taka (my Japanese block/housemate in Sunley Building), who's visiting from Wales. Taka is now completing his MBA from the University of Wales Bangor.
Friends and families of the couple gathered in Paul's parents' house for some wine, delicious food and wonderful company. We also got a chance to watch the full edited video of the whole wedding. It was an opportunity for me to catch a glimpse of the tradition-filled wedding ceremony. One of the striking instances that caught my eye was when, Paul had to carry Yan out of the maiden's house into the car. Not only that, Paul had to carry Yan three flights up to a house where the couple met the immediate members of the Bride. Paul wonderfully still managed to look composed after that small workout. The video scene then shifted to the hotel where the couple had a chance to meet most of the entourage, well-wishers and visitors.
