Dear all:
Guess who got married recently? Right you are! Lisa and Henry
got married on
Sunday, November 2. Lisa is the second daughter of Eugene and
Jenny Yee; and
Henry is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Wai Kuen Yu. This couple is so passionately
in love that one honeymoon will certainly lead to more honeymoons.
Right now
they are enjoying their very first honeymoon in
Lisa's family is no stranger in our association. They have been
helping out
a lot in all our major functions. It was very nice that they
invited a whole
bunch of us to the wedding. The church minister was just like one of
those
in the movies, very flamboyant and loquacious. I would have lost
my line if
he married my wife and me! :-)) Then usual tea ceremony took place
at the
restaurant. It was different and new to the non-Chinese friends of Lisa
and
Henry. Everyone was fascinated to see Lisa's new major serious
jewelry,
bigger than Mr. T's collection!
:-)) Someone
without a camera was using
her camera cellphone to take pictures.
That's innovative. Then I had the
honor of saying a few congratulatory words and introducing Lisa's
family
members during the banquet. I had a great time. The entertainment
during the
banquet was excellent. The DJ and the music setup was
very professional.
Very contemporary and lively. No usual line dancing
and all that jazz. The
only glitch was that their powerful equipment practically blew the
fuss a
few times, given that another wedding banquet was going strong too
on a
different floor in the same restaurant. All and all it was fun. Those
cool
guys and gals basically did not want to leave the dance floor. Of
course,
the entertainment company also handed out party favors. But
something
different was that they gave away audio CD's with presumably Lisa and
Henry's favorite hits. That's new. I heard parts of most of the songs on the
radio. And now I have a CD. That's a great compilation.
Once again I sincerely wish Lisa and Henry the best of
everything. May Lisa
and Henry have many lovely children and prosper in everything they
want to
do. And in a more mundane tone, make a lot of money too! God
bless.
