Okay, so finally the last wedding reception from my family! Phew! ^_^
My 2nd sister, Dewi, celebrated her marriage to Wira, my brother-in-law (finally, someone who's older than me! Only a year older, but I don't care, as long as he's older! HA! ^_^) on Sunday, Feb 8, 2009. An intimate party of just family and close friends is always my favorite, so I am glad they kept it small size. ^_^
In terms of inspiration...well, I was thinking of Chinese influence with modern flare. Red and Gold are Chinese auspicious colors, but I don't want red to be the base, so I "translated" the gold in shades of yellow. The only "gold' colored items were the accent ribbon for the stems and the feather. I personally do not dig metallic/shiny gold, if I have to use gold, it'll be antique/old/matte gold. ^_^ I think it works great!
