Aunty Missy's Wedding

“You got me” by J. Williams blasted out of the speakers as we danced. It was my aunty Missy’s Wedding.

Missy is my mum’s youngest sister who got married to a man called Augustine, but we call him Gus for short. They had their ceremony at a church called St Michaels Catholic Church in Remuera. Because Gus is Fijian, the grooms men and page boys had to wear ‘sulus’. A ‘sulu’ is something that looks like a skirt. The bridesmaids wore long baby blue dresses.

After the ceremony, everyone drove to a place that looked very flash for the reception.

When we had eaten and the speeches had finished, my brother Jordan, cousin Stevenson and I had to perform. We had spent weeks trying to make our performance perfect, but some of the time we mucked around when we were practicing.

Anyway as soon as the song started playing, everyone started screaming like we were famous or something, but they were actually screaming because they loved the song. It was “You got me” by J.Williams and Scribe.

As soon as our item was over, my brother and I raced off to the toilets to count our money. I had $130 and Jordan had $120. Even though we wasted a lot of time mucking around during our practices, I still think that our performance was the best.

Everybody had a great time. I think my aunty looked stunning in her dress and I think that it was a fantastic wedding.

  1. Hi there Kingston! I've enjoyed reading about your Aunty's wedding and how you and the boys were part of the floor show! You got paid too! I like how you described the way people were screaming for you, a good way to add in a bit of humour! I really like the way you have arranged your photos too. A great idea, this way you get show more than one picture. Keep up the good posting Kingston!

    I'm glad that you wrote about aunty Missy's wedding. It was a fantastic wedding, and you're right she looked stunning! I'm also really proud of you for dancing really well, and for rapping into the microphone just like Scribe. You memorised all the words for the rap, well done.

  10. Hey Kingston!
    Thanks for your awesome story about the wedding and your lovely comments about my dress. You are right, your item was the BEST one! I think everyone was screaming because they liked the song and you guys looked cool. Anyway, I think your writing is excellent and I really like your stories about the twins first birthday and the Volleyball competition. I hope you guys have a great time at the Sky Tower during the school holidays.
