Hey, child, where are you going? There’s a wedding reception on! Don’t miss it, it’s at Hasan Abang’s place, 400B. You can’t miss it. Down the lane, make a right, and keep going….

…until you reach the coconut-frond archway over the driveway!

Step inside and jaw a while with the neighbors.

Everyone’s just getting caught up, making small talk…

… while they wait for the food to be served.

In the meantime, there’s plenty of entertainment…

… from the boys playing kompang and singing nasheed.

The men inside recite Mawlid Barzanji…

… when the kompang boys are ready to take a break.

You can lean back and relax after you’ve had your meal…

… and may even catch a glimpse of the bride! Leaving so soon? All right, salam alaykum until next time.


Salamutations! Off topic, the same as yours: your website is lovely too. I’m afraid I’ve dispensed with that theme now though – too much work and not enough time.
