1950s Malaya

I seem to disappear on you fine folks more & more these days huh? Sorry about that. I’ve been living in a bubble & besides confirming the date, there have been NO plans or progress whatsoever in regards to the wedding.

Except for one thing that is. Inspired by our nation’s recent Independence Day celebration (Happy Merdeka everyone!), I’ve decided that we’re gonna go for a 1950’s/early 1960’s Malaya theme for the wedding reception on my side. That’s right: kebaya ketat & songkok tinggi, joget lambak & twist, gin & tonic, P.Ramlee & Saloma, vinyls & Vespas.

Here are some images that are getting my creative juices going (thanks to Malaysia Design Archive):
