Enggagement in Church (Martuppol)

Last weekend, 27th january 2007 we had our Church Enggagement in Surabaya. It was a simple ceremony in Manyar church Surabaya. We started to prepare at about 6am in the morning, Artha, my mom, nantulang (artha mom) and all the ladies preparing their make-up, hair and dress. Artha was wearing a brown-gold Kebaya (Indonesian traditional gown), and she was awesomely beautiful. After all preparation, I went to Artha's home to pick her up with her families and then we went together to church. In church we had aservice and then we signed on a paper stating that we do not have any problems with other person that can disturb our wedding. And then later on this will be announce to the church congregation during sunday service until our wedding day on the 16th February 2007.
After the church Enggagement, we went to a building where both big families met and talked about the wedding. They basically talked about the cost the invitations, and how some details on the wedding day.
That day was quite tiring, it only end at about 6pm in the afternoon. After that both families went home and then had another meeting. Well the wedding day will be more tiring than that.
Picture will be updated soon.
