The heng dais were late, and there was a bit of a commotion when the bride's younger brother could not find the shoes he needed to step outside in order to open the car door. So there we all were; standing outside the house while the groom waited patiently in the bridal car!
Anyway, overall the heng dais were very sporting indeed. They did feedback to say that the challenges were not tough enough (though of course we chee muis were very kind and cut them some slack even when we spotted some blatant cheating, heh :p)
We also attached strings to different items, with the task that the groom had to passionately kiss anything at the other end of the string. He was told that one of the strings would lead to his beloved bride; but none of them did of course!
So he had to kiss a chair, a small piglet bolster and a tiny cactus in a pot (the kiss had to be on the cactus, not the pot). Actually we wanted one of the strings to lead to his mother-in-law but she was busy running around the house getting things done, so we had to scrap the idea. Now THAT would have been super-fun to watch!! Hahahaha :D
Made them drink some of the four flavours from a milk bottle- the bitter gourd juice was reserved for the groom on the bride's request :) Harry Potter breezed through the chopped chilli padi mixed with wasabi (darn)... and the look on MK's face when he downed all the vinegar was just priceless :D
Congratulations CP and CE-
may your marriage be filled with much love and laughter!

extract of an e-mail which i sent to chern ee to prepare for the wedding games (hey, scout's motto - be prepared!):
We usually get the groom to eat these stuff:
For sweet – sugar syrup
For sour – 100% pure lemon juice / vinegar
For spicy – Tabasco sauce or chilli padi
For bitter – 100% pure dark chocolate or espresso coffee without sugar
(salty - old soya sauce)
Note that it must be in that sequence because after you drink the sweet stuff, your taste bud tends to be a bit sweeten so other stuff will taste more horrible than they normally used to be. Heehee…
Fresh raw eggs, depending on how strong the groom’s stomach is.
And of course all the funniest stuff that you can think of e.g. go Chinese medicine hall and find all sorts of herbs and get him to eat.
Another friend even suggested inserting a chilli into a banana.
*i think there are some chillis which are worse than chilli padi
