Hmmm....
Today, Hubby and I stepped into ROMM... For the first time... At least for me. I was nervous, which I find it weird and funny cos' it was really nothing actually.
Hubby came to meet me at my place at 10:30 am and my Father fetched both of us and off we go... There was a slight traffic jam and when we reached ROMM, I had butterflies in my stomach. I was glad that my future bro-in-law's wife was sms-ing me and keeping my fingers busy.
When we entered the lobby, we didn't know what to do nor where to go. Lucky for us, the gentleman at the reception counter asked us if we are registering our marriage. So, we went to the reception counter and he helped us explain what needs to be completed and what documents required. After passing to him our NRICs (bride, groom and Wali), our Certificates for Kursus as well as the photocopies of NRIC of our Saksi(s), he advised to complete a form to state the hantaran and the mas kahwin, the date of solemnisation, venue and preferred Kadi. Then, we were given a queue number and was advised to wait for our queue for payment.
Waited.... And a lady (who speaks very fast) attended to us to complete the registration online and after Hubby made payment for the registration fee, we were asked to go up to the second level for a short interview.
Wah! To get married also, need to have an interview??? Like applying for a job....
Another wait... Finally, our queue number was called... Hubby went in first, within minutes, he came out... And, then... it's my turn. I went in. The Ustaz confirmed my details, asked me if i was ever married before, if I was ever engaged to someone else before and if I was forced to get married. Lastly, I was asked to make a declaration. This part was funny... I almost laughed my heart out. Heehee! It's like making an oath, a pledge. Then, all's over and I went out to call my Wali (my father) in for his turn. Within minutes, my Father came out and we then head to my Grandma's place.
Didn't manage to take any pics... Unfortunately... But, it was an experience...
