The Sister doing the last minute touch-up to the hantaran, 10/05/2014
Prior to my Engagement, I did a lot of studies on Instagram & on the internet, just to get some ideas of how I want my hantaran to be. I would really love to have fresh flowers as the decoration on the hantaran trays but after considering the factors that they are expensive & won't last long, we opted for artificial flowers instead
Since the theme colour was peach, the artificial flowers we chose were of bright & bold colours, a combination that I totally fond of. The decoration & plastic trays were bought from WS Handricaft, K.Bharu (in front of Pusat Perubatan An-Nisa), the same place where we bought the things for the DIY Engagement mini dais
For the hantaran, A.H & I agreed to exchange gifts/ which we deemed necessary so that we won't go overboard with our budget. Ours were just simple, nothing to boast about really but other people (especially the fiance/fiance-to-be) may have their own preferences when it comes to hantaran
From A.H

The Sister did 90% of the hantaran decoration, so she deserves all the credits & thank yous ♥ I can't remember how much we spent on all the decoration items but DIY-ing is definitely cheaper than upah orang tolong decorate. Of course bayar mahai, outcome pun should be cantik ayte?
