Te Pai a.k.a Tea Ceremony

Te-Pai had to be attended by Liza n Olav, since her dad's Chinese. Quite interesting, coz seems like they're getting some nice "present" from the extended family ;)

Then afterwards, straight to church.
There were some choirs from both side of the family.

The reception was held in Manggala Wanabakti. Full with entertainment. Starting with the Barongsai welcoming both bride and groom out front. Meriah bo! Then the bride and groom was guided by a bunch of youngsters performing tari Lenso from Maluku, towards the stage. After that, when they're seated, the Javanese dancers starting to do their thing. I don't even understand what's the dance is all about. But for sure, bride, groom, and both parents, they all need to be seated, since it would take a while before the dance will finished.

The whole party was actually SO Ambonese style!
