YOGYAKARTA - President Joko Widodo conveyed a special message to his youngest son Kaesang Pangarep in order to be able to be a little more serious because he has become a husband figure for Erina Sofia Gudono. "Earlier, I specifically conveyed to Kaesang. Kaesang is happy to be'sjended' and not serious, now this has my wife conveyed more seriously, just a little. Don't be too serious later old. I convey that," said President Jokowi after the marriage ceremony of Kaesang and Erina at the Royal Ambarrukmo Hall, Sleman, DI. Yogyakarta, Saturday afternoon, December 10. When asked, what gifts were given to the wedding of Kaesang and Erina Gudono, Jokowi, who was accompanied by Mrs. Iriana, only answered in a joking tone. "Love," said Jokowi with a laugh. Regarding the series of wedding events of his son in Yogyakarta including those that will take place in Solo, Central Java, Jokowi admitted that he deliberately asked for the help of several ministers, including Minister of SOE Erick Thohir, just to direct matters related to protocol. "Yes, this is actually a committee from family, our wong, has a building, has catering, has an 'event organizer'. It is daily only for the country's protocol, we ask for the help of one or two ministers," Jokowi said as quoted by Antara.

According to Jokowi, Erick Thohir was one of the ministers who was asked for assistance because he was considered to have a management experience at several events. "We saw that it could help a little bit. It was a little help," he said. Meanwhile, the matter of the election of State Secretary Pratikno and Minister of PUPR Basuki Hadimuljono as a marriage witness, Jokowi said the decision was purely from Kaesang. "That was 100 percent Kaesang. All Kaesang," he said. Kaesang Pangarep officially became Erina Sofia Gudono's husband after undergoing a marriage ceremony at the Royal Ambarrukmo Hall, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region, Saturday which began at around 13.00 WIB. After the contract, Kaesang and Erina then underwent a "pangih" traditional procession, and closed with photos with invited guests. After the marriage contract event, the next series of events were "downloading mantu" and receptions in Solo, Central Java on Sunday 11 December.
