Wedding Fun with Work Buddies

December & January are the peak months for weddings. Majority of people decide to get married in these two months, wedding halls are all full and booked almost half a year back or you won’t get the halls on your desired dates. I myself get married in January 2019 and will be celebrating my 5th wedding anniversary in couple days. Attending wedding events is fun specially when its of your close friends, cousins or work buddies. Work buddies are just like family too because you spent 9 hours of your day with them, gelling, chilling and sometimes cold wars too. I am lucky that I always get good people around me at work, specially my line manager, the CEO of the company is very friendly and maintain good relation with him employees.

One of my colleague cum friend was getting married in end of December and he invited me along with other work buddies in couple of events. The day we get the invitation, we were so excited. I was the one who made the first event very important and created a hype so others were very excited. I made others imagining the event where we all were dancing and singing. I suggested that we should select a song and do some rehearsal and practice with the same steps to perform on one of his events. Most of the buddies agreed and then we headed to one of our best dancers in the office, which everyone witnessed in one of the picnics. We took his advice and he agreed to show us some steps and also agreed to be the part of this performance. It was all just gossiping, no one took it seriously although it give a good time pass in office while discussing about it. We spent two weeks on this discussion but inside, everyone knows that nothing is going to happen on the event lol

I was just motivating them for the dance whereas I was not sure whether I would be going to attend the event or not because on the same day, it was birthday of my Nephew and I had other plans with my family. When I shared this news, I was shocked to see the reaction of others. They all started pushing and insisting me for the event. Finally, I decided to attend the event and it was a good decision because we had a lot of fun and a good laugh together with my work buddies.

It was the “Mehndi” event and it’s all about enjoying the party while watching others dancing and moving your body with the beats. Our Boss was there too and he was right on time because he loves to be punctual but people of Karachi are not same including me. We entered the hall around 10:30 pm when Groom was getting ready for his entry. Drum beats were all around and his siblings, cousins were dancing on their way to take him to the stage. When he arrived on the stage, I took the opportunity to make him dance a bit and started dancing infront of him. He was smiling and of course feeling shy of dancing but finally he moved his hands and feets with the beats. His Mother and brother were really excited to see him dancing. That moment was all crazy, my work buddies enjoyed watching me all alone there and just one of them joined me for few seconds that too after I insisted her a lot. No one was expecting it from me, they thought I would be doing nothing but sitting in the corner and waiting for the dinner to be served. But they were wrong, I did enjoyed the party and make others enjoyed it too. Our Boss was happy to see us altogether in this way. Dinner was awesome, it was delicious. We had a good time altogether.

Next event was Baraat and we reached there a bit late, at 11 pm, missed few funny item song dance. It was the same venue, and majority of work buddies joined us there. it was a nice decent party, we took pictures with the Bride and Groom to make it memorable. Wishing them a lifetime filled with love, joy, and countless beautiful moments together.
