Escorting Groom

It is Thursday. We had breakfast at the front yard. The hotel provided various fruits, tea, coffee, fried rice, fried noodles, omelete, and crackers

At 08:00 we the groom contingent left the hotel for the bride's house. We would perform siraman. Siraman is a ceremony in which the bride and the groom separately are showered by the elders. It simbolizes purifying them before entering the marriage. Siraman performed at about 11:00. After siraman we were served with simply breakfast. In waiting for the next procession we the contingent were transited in a house nearby.

The day was hot and humid. Although all doors and windows opened we still were sweated. I changed my clothes with short and simply t-shirt.

At 15:00 we, the groom's companions started to go to the bride's house. I as the spokesman for Yuanto family delivered the groom to the bride's family. A half hour later I was on a seat as witness for the marriage procession of Yuandra Istighfaris and Malinda Bayu Pangestu. Her father, Mr. Bayu Suristoni married her to Yuandra. A small banquette was served following the procession completed. At 17:00 we left the venue for the hotel.

In the evening we dined at a street food kiosk nearby the hotel.
