concept, while some others dealth with Javanese wedding concept. Therefore, it can be concluded that, generally, the focus of the designed materials was not
about either international or Javanese wedding concept only. The focus was about both of them. The following discussions would be about the discussion of units
and phases of each unit.
a. Units
In order to make the students have a complete experience using English in dealing with foreign clients, therefore, in designing the units, the contents deal
with starting from they meet the clients for the first time up to the D-Day of the wedding. Seven units of the designed materials were entitled 1 You Need a
Professional Like Us, 2 Do You Know Your Wedding Structure?, 3 Venue, Photographer, Caterer. What Else?, 4
That’s a Very Kind Offer from Us, 5 Which Indonesian Menu Will You Prefer?, 6 Here is Our Wedding Contract, and
7 Finally, Your Big Day is Coming. The first unit deals with selfcompany introduction. Some input on how to
greet clients and introduce the wedding organizer to clients were inserted. In designing the content of the input, the content was based on the interview results
with Denaya Production. It means that, when they dealt with the clients for the first time, the team members introduced the profile of the wedding organizer and
also the brief portfolio of the wedding events that have been conducted. As the language focus, subject-verb agreement was considered appropriate to complete
the students’ performance of the introduction, as the introduction deals also with simple present tense.

The second unit of the designed materials deals with wedding structure. Here, as the limitation of the designed materials, the wedding structure that was
provided was about Javanese wedding structure. Inability to provide both wedding concepts international and Javanese was aimed at avoiding the students learn
much input and vocabulary items in only one unit. Therefore, choosing one kind of wedding structure was done. Another reason of choosing Javanese wedding
structure was because the wedding events done in Yogyakarta which deal with foreign clients were mostly dealing with Javanese wedding. Furthermore, to
introduce cultural value of Javanese wedding, the wedding structure in this unit was explained in such a way. As wedding structure deals with a chronological
order, therefore, as the language focus, the unit contains the use of linking words. The third unit of the designed materials deals with wedding vendors. In
this unit, introducing wedding vendors was packaged in both general and international theme. Generally, the name of the wedding vendors can be used both
in international and Javanese wedding concept. Meanwhile, by looking at the pictures of the wedding vendors, the pictures represent the international wedding
concept. Furthermore, the input was about expressions of asking and giving opinions. This was based on the interview results which said that when the team
members talk about wedding vendors with clients, the clients would mostly ask about the team members about particular wedding vendors. As language focus, the
team members, as the ones who were mostly asked opinion, were introduced about how to give opinions formally.
