After several months of anticipation, our families finally met up for a food tasting session at Marina Mandarin on Monday! Wei Siang and I had been feeling jittery days before the dinner date, for the fact that his parents' have yet to meet up with my parents for a formal dinner session since we started dating 10 years ago! When we started dating, I was only 17! Furthermore, my parents weren't very happy with us way back then, as we were supposed to schooling rather than going into a boy-girl relationship! Hee hee! I was still feeling worried that our parents may not click well with one another; as it was afterall, their 1st meeting. I guess my fear was unfounded for, as they were happily conversing with one another even before the 1st dish was served! Subsequently, my future mother-in-law brought up the topic on the bride-price to my parents. I was touched when my dad commented that the bride-price didn't matter to him; so long as I have found someone who could take care for me for life! Afterall, I am my daddy's precious girl! Oh no, I think I am going to miss my parents dearly after my wedding! Sigh. During the dinner session, our wedding coordinator Wendy passed us some wedding favour samples for our guests on our wedding day. There were 2 new wedding favours to choose from; which were a glass coaster and silver coloured picture frame. We were undecided on the choice of wedding favour, as the glass coaster looked plain and didn't seem attractive to us at first sight. Moreover, the sharp edges of the square coaster might accidentally cut young guests if mishandled. We didn't really like the metal picture frame too. We also gave up the choice of giving edible wedding favours to guests i.e. pineapple tarts and heart-shaped chocolates..  Here's 2 of the Wedding Favours! Overall, we were very pleased with our wedding menu, and were satisfied with the food course. One special mention was the sharks fin, as it came along with a lot of fish maw and scallops! Slurp! Another food item was the smoked tea duck which was highly complimented by our parents. =) However, there were mixed opinions on the choice of deserts, as my parents preferred the yam with Ginko Nuts rather than our initial choice of mango sago with ice-cream. We are still in the process of confirming the dessert menu with the Hotel.... so I will keep the final choice confidential for the time being! =)
