We had a small gathering of family and friends for my engagement recently.
My dad worked really hard to built this simple yet beautiful pelamin.
He did everything from scratch.
He first built the big white wooden frame for the white background drapes.
He then built the hipster bench from pine wood, later on he made the 2 side tables with hidden lamps and he worked on the overall lighting for the whole pelamin.

And the DIY did not stop there.
I DIY my hantaran decorations myself.
Seven trays with off-white roses and baby breath.

And the DIY continues..
I started sewing my engagement dress the night before the engagement itself.
The sewing part was fast and smooth
but
when it comes to placing the beads, it was a trial-n-error.

And on the engagement day, early in the morning, I applied the make-up myself.
That was abreeze.
So with a DIY pelamin by my dad,
7 DIY hantaran tray decorations, a DIY dress and a DIY makeup by yours truly,
and our house 'as is',
my engagement took place.
Thanks to my
DAD, MOM, BROTHERS, AUNTIES, UNCLES, COUSINS and FRIENDS
for being there for me and most importantly,
