"turut mengundang"

ok..i mmg slalu tertanya..dari zaman skolah till sekarang (before i pegi tempah wedding card tu), kenapa mesti ade ayat "turut mengundang: seisi keluarga"..



my first assumption was:" owh..it means, semua keluarga di jemput hadir la kot..so bleh bawak the whole fam dtg makan..because utk certain majlis esppecially yg kat dewam..seats are allocated..so if dia ckp anda dan pasangan..then mmg dua org je yg kne dtg..owhh i seeee" this was my first innocent thought :D

tp..kat dlm sesetengah kad tu, ade plak tulis, "turut mengundang: a list of adik beradik pengantin" ..uiks..kenape pulak..sah2 le adik beradik diundang dan akan hadir ke majlis kite..
then here was my second innocent thought: maybe bakal pengantin nak show his/her appreciation kat his/her siblings..that's why he/she wants to list down all the names of adik beradik..special undangan gituu..owhhh i sunggguh seeeeee =D

then when the day came for me to have my own wedding invitation card..i called my mom first in order to confirm the wording with her..and i still can remember that i asked her this specific question:

me: mama, org letak "turut mengundang: seisi keluarga" la ek..sbb ari tu mama ckp nak jemput "nama jemputan" dan keluarga ke kenduri. kire seisi keluarga la kan?

mama: kalau bole, mama nak listkan nama semua anak2 mama dlm tu..even nama amalina skali..dan jugak menantu2 mama

i was like HAAA? awat plak nak jemput myself to my wedding..sah2 le i hadir okay ::grin::

but as a loyal daughter..i just said yes, without trying to understand why my mom requested that.

so i put all my siblings name, under "turut mengundang", except for my name, because i still felt it is ridiculous to invite myself to my wedding..

then my hp sang "aku dan dirimu" song, my mom called me back.

mama: klu boleh..mama nak letak name nenek skali dlm turut mengundang..kire nenek wakil family kite utk mengundang org jemputan..

seriously, i masih blur2 tak paham, but as usual, i just said "ok mom"..

after a few days..this "turut mengundang" still bothered me..lagipon i ade 6 adik beradik..tolak my name..kire ade 5..dan menantu plak dua..it is a long list..
dlm card sy tu pon cukup2 muat je..dah le nak letak contact number lagi kan..

after berfikir panjang and try utk memahami maksud tersurat dan tersirat di sebalik "turut mengundang" , AT LAST..baru i paham..ya Allah..sungguh slow..this thing had haunted me for agess..each time i saw a wedding card, i always asked my self..kenape kne ade "turut mengundang"..rupanya2, it means, names that are listed under "turut mengundang" invite the people who receive the card too. So basically, not only my parents invite them, but the whole family as well. Owhhh Myyy God!! ( sile sebut dgn slang Janice dlm cite friends)

the end. =D

p/s 1: now, shud i put my name or not under the "turut mengundang"??

p/s 2: i dah dpt draft from LH creative..well not bad at all..there are some mistakes here and there..biggest mistake is they put "turut mengundang" instead of "aturcara majlis" erkkk..yg tu sgt obvious ok..and there are wrong spelling for names and maps as well..as for the design..everything is ok except for the color of hot stamping..it's clearly stated on the invoice that we want to have gold hotstamping..lagi dia letak kaler hitam..hihi..will give them our feedback this tuesday.
