Brilio.net - Kaesang Pangarep and Erina Gudono just held a 7-month thanksgiving and tingkeban on Saturday (10/8). The event was held at the Bogor Presidential Palace, West Java.
From a number of photos and videos shared, the mitoni event for President Jokowi's daughter-in-law's pregnancy carried Javanese customs. In addition to the strong traditional theme, luxury was felt through the decorations and the appearance of the event host.
In the solemn event, Erina wore a bright floral kutu baru kebaya combined with batik cloth. The kebaya was made even more special by the brocade details along the collar and some parts of the cloth.

Apparently, Erina's dress for the mitoni event was the work of designer Didiet Maulana. It is no wonder that Erina, whose baby bump is increasingly visible at 7 months of pregnancy, is very suitable to wear this beautiful kebaya.
In addition, what made this event even more special was the presence of a number of Indonesian celebrities who also enlivened the atmosphere. Aurel Hermansyah, Beby Tsabina, Kiky Saputri, and Sabrina Chairunnisa were seen attending, giving a glamorous touch to this event that is full of cultural meaning.

However, the luxury of Erina Gudono's mitoni is very different from the mitoni procession of Selvi Ananda , the wife of President Jokowi's eldest son, Gibran Rakabuming. At that time, Selvi's mitoni was held simply.

In 2015, when Selvi Ananda was 7 months pregnant, Jokowi's family chose to hold a mitoni event at their private residence in Solo. There were no fancy decorations other than flower ornaments decorating the residence. A white tent was also set up in front of Jokowi's house.
The guests who attended were limited, only the president's immediate family including Gibran's two younger siblings, Kahiyang and Kaesang. There were also close relatives and several local figures such as the then elected Mayor of Solo, FX Hadi Rudyatmo, and his deputy, Achmad Purnomo.

Although simple, Selvi's mitoni is still thick with Javanese traditional values that are upheld by the family. In addition to sungkeman, the mitoni ceremony procession is also carried out with siraman, splitting young coconuts, and others.
