The challenge this time was not so much the decor part as I had every confidence with Arjuna Cipta being able to deliver what the client wanted but the placement of the canopy. As the bridal residence was an intermediate one, and the garden/patio is at the back of the house which was on the 2nd level of the house... confused yet? Yes, it was a bit confusing to the canopy supplier to erect the canopy as well as for the caterer to set up the buffet line. Since the only way in and out was through the front door, the canopy supplies were carried from ground floor to the garden on the 2nd level. There were heart stopping moments for me as I watched the those boys climbed the long ladder on the steep wall, propped up from their lorry. The Big Onion Caterer staff came a day earlier to set up the buffet line and store their supplies at the lower level as the space available was not enough to accommodate their tools and set up 'base' for storage. With guests arriving at 9.45am and ceremony was scheduled to start at 10.30am, it was imperative that the set up was done a day prior and that food delivery was to arrive at 8.30 am on event day.
Arjuna Cipta did a good job once again and client was extremely happy with the Main Entrance decor which was unplanned and was a last minute decision by me and agreed by client & decorator. Since we didn't have any canopy (an indication of a wedding in most cases) up front, the decor at the gate was the best idea we had. I was praying hard that the wild monkeys who resides in the jungle opposite the house didn't find the flowers too tempting and my prayers were answered. The flowers were still intact when I arrived at 7.30am on event day and most guests used the floral decor there as indicator to the event Although, a few of the monkeys was kind of curious about the goings on during the arrival of the groom where a couple of them were watching directly across the main entrance which made yours truly rather nervous... Nevertheless, all went well, alhamdulillah and what's important was the client was very happy with our services plus the family was very helpful and accommodating to us. Thanks, Kak Zai!
