PUTRAJAYA: About 10,000 people attended the "drive-through' wedding reception of Putrajaya MP Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor's son, held at Dataran Putrajaya here, today.
A special stage was set up in front of the Palace of Justice where the newly-weds, Tengku Muhammed Hafiz Tengku Adnan and Oceane Cyril Alagia, were seated and waved to the guests, who passed-by in their vehicles before collecting their food packs at a special tent as they left the venue.
The Javanese-themed ceremony started at 11am and ended at about 2pm.
Tengku Muhammed Hafiz said he and his family thanked all the guests who came to the wedding reception, despite it being carried out under the new normal.
"The drive-through concept was my father's idea. He wanted my wedding to be celebrated by all the people in Putrajaya because they are also my family, as I grew up here," he said.
Tengku Muhammed Hafiz, who is pursuing medical studies in Indonesia, said the ceremony was held in compliance with prescribed standard operating procedures (SOP) to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
The event was enlivened by Javanese cultural performances, as well as local artistes, who could be viewed on a huge screen next to the stage. - BERNAMA
