Wedding Ring Pillow

Wedding ring pillow is a pillow that has ribbons to tie the rings. Some people make their own, but frankly, ring pillow can be anything!

We first thought of using an apple, putting rings through its stem. But surprisingly, most apples at supermarkets have short stems, so we gave up.


Then later, by a lucky chance, my darling found this cute little heart-shaped leafy plant at a general store! It nicely matched our wedding theme: full of hearts!

By the way, our wedding rings are here ;)

Our Marriage Vows

As I wrote before, we wanted our wedding to have a real homey feel, so we chose Civil Wedding Ceremony (人前式 - Jinzen Shiki). It is a nonreligious wedding ceremony that bride and groom read out their own vows in front of those present, implore them to validate the marriage. Our marriage vows (originally in Japanese) are the below :D

---------------------------------

Darling & Me:
Our Vows

Me:
We are happy to have our wedding in front of all who made time to be here today.

Darling:
Here, we will make 7 vows.

Me:
1. We will take care of our family.

Darling:
2. We will never forget to care for others.

Me:
3. We will build a family filled with love, laughter, and happiness.

Darling:
4. If we have a quarrel, we won't be stubborn, but listen to each other.

Me:
5. We will make a relaxing home, without stocking up on things.

Darling:
6. We will be never too busy to spend time together on weekends.

Me:
7. We will do moderate exercise and have well-balanced happy meal, to live long together forever.

Darling:
We will stamp our vows indelibly on our minds, share our joys and hapiness,

Me:
overcome our pains and sorrws together,

Darling & Me:
and together, we hereby pledge that we will bravely lead our lives hand in hand.

Darling:
2010.10.10
Groom, xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx.

Me:
Bride, xxx xxxx.

---------------------------------

Believe it or not, we practiced reading them out in the morning of the big day! Ha-ha!!! However, my darling didn't make a mistake! Me?! I misread words X(

We then signed the certificate of marriage in front of our guests.

LOVE Pink Brownie

This is another wedding idea.

We served our guests with my pink brownies (top left one) along with recipe cards!!! My wedding coordinator was kind enough to ask her friend (patissier) to create them for our wedding. Remember it or not, what we printed out at Kinko's were recipe cards ;)

BTW, white square cake (top right one) is our wedding cake. Mango pudding in the spade-shaped dish and Almond Pudding (杏仁豆腐) in the heart-shaped dish are desserts for our wedding reception foods.

I'm glad everyone enjoyed them!!!
