Malaysian actress and entrepreneur Rozita Che Wan, widely known as Che Ta, has officially welcomed a daughter-in-law as her eldest son, Ammar Effendy Azuar Effendy, tied the knot with his beloved, Auni Ikhwan. The solemnization ceremony, held on the auspicious occasion of 10 Muharram, took place at GlamHall Damansara in Damansara Perdana.
The couple exchanged vows around 8:41 p.m., with Auni's father, Ikhwan Hashim, officiating the marriage. The garden wedding concept, chosen by both families, created a simple and minimalist atmosphere for the more than 200 guests, comprising close family and friends. Ammar presented a dowry of RM300 and a gold bar, while seven trays of gifts were exchanged between the families. Auni received a 1.8-carat diamond ring during the ceremony.
Continue to be together even in imperfection, and whatever happens. I hope Ammar becomes a husband who protects, not one who is controlling. For Auni, be a wife who always accompanies her husband. In married life, hold each other's hands in every situation and never let go when tested.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Che Ta shared her hopes for the newlyweds. "Continue to be together even in imperfection, and whatever happens. I hope Ammar becomes a husband who protects, not one who is controlling," she said. Addressing Auni, she added, "Be a wife who always accompanies her husband. In married life, hold each other's hands in every situation and never let go when tested."
Marital happiness is not measured by the absence of trials but by a couple's ability to stay united through challenges.
Che Ta emphasized that marital happiness is not measured by the absence of trials but by a couple's ability to stay united through challenges. "Marriage is not like changing clothes. There will be tests and quirks, especially when you have children. What's important is compromise, mutual understanding, and not taking the easy way out when facing problems," she advised, wishing them a home filled with tranquility, love, and compassion.
Ammar, who works as a banking officer, and Auni, employed in marketing, had been engaged since October last year. They are set to be celebrated further at a Black Tie reception in Shah Alam and a traditional 'majlis bertandang' on July 4.
