Wedding dinner phobia

I helped out during Mark's wedding dinner last Saturday. I was the receptionist, a challenging task when Mark's guest list was very vague. He named most of his guests with surnames or nicknames. Fortunately, he got another 2 friends to share my stress later. I 'conveniently' left the task to them by acting busy collecting angpows there. :p There were times we needed to drag him out to verify the table number for his guests. Quite chaotic actually...But good thing was Mark handled hiccups very calmly though he had thousands of things in his mind at the moment. I couldn't help to imagine how I would react if I were him. Ho.....I imagined myself throwing tantrum with gloomy face. Haha...thought of that made me trembling. I hope I can skip this. :p

The proceeds of angpows were not sufficient to cover the banquet cost. In the end, after so much hassles, it was a LOSS! Hmm...was it worthwhile then?

Moreover, every time I see couples marching in and smiling to people who they hardly talk to in their life like distant relatives & parents' friends, I can't imagine myself into that situation. It is so awkward! I really hope my hubby, my in-laws and my parents will agree to let me have a much simpler wedding dinner if there should be one. To date, I know darling and his mom are at my side. 3 of us share the same sentiment that wedding dinner is too much works to be done. Lazy huh? :D
