2 cousins took their respective vows last week on 090909.
I missed one dinner because a flu was about to besiege and there was a possibility of it overrunning by riff-raffs, but M astutely observed that 'it was whether I wanted to go or not" haha. I attended the other wedding banquet at Fullerton (closer propinquity) was a particularly grand affair as experienced through the food served - a chinois fusion of some sorts.
The whole procession was tad different - lots of aww moments, promises and love declarations. "To my new daddy and mummy, I promise to take care of her and to love her always" --> more like the transfer of ownership from daddy's girl to husband's wife.
But really, people tend to behave irrationally when they think they are in love. Very often it's really a matter of convenience - a union of economic cooperation and/or a sanctified institution for regulating legitimized sex?
People who find singlehood terrifying won't find someone they can have a happy marriage with, because they themselves cannot make out their own minds, what more make out someone when you can't figure yourself out? The best relationships therefore are between people who are comfortable with being single in the first place - an irony i know.
But, saying that, I'm pretty confident the sacrament of marriage I witnessed is going to be very very beautiful.

Equally beautiful ...
But as it is with moving images, they tend to over-dramatize anyone's playing. To understand, see with your ears.
Sometimes the line blurs, it is never clear what something leverages on... Could it be the case of images gaining a heightened sensation under the influence of sounds or rather the case of sounds leading to the perception of an 'aesthetic consciousness'?
