My hotel provide tea and the tea pot and cups! I think you can request from your coordinator to provide. Alternatively, my friend use to bring packets of Yeo red dates tea.I'm a 25 Sept BTB too!
Settled my venue,BS, AD PG&VG, wedding bands and JP too!
Pre wed photoshoot in May! Now looking MUA for my mum and MIL. Estimate to print invitations in June and food tasting in July. Won't be doing anything in August since it's the Ghost Festival.
Will be sending out Save the dates this end of the month!
Thinking of doing guo da Li two weeks before the wedding day but MIL wants to check out on the auspicious date and the an chuang date too.
As mine is a luncheon, I'm having tea ceremony and ROM before the banquet starts.
Any brides have idea for the tea ceremony at hotel, do the hotel provide the tea itself or we have to cook the tea at home and bring over?
My hotel provides tea n tea cup too. N yes you gonna check with your hotel coordinatorMy hotel provide tea and the tea pot and cups! I think you can request from your coordinator to provide. Alternatively, my friend use to bring packets of Yeo red dates tea.
Yah! We left only 4 months from now, March - July.. Since Aug is lunar 7th month cannot do anything..I'm a 3/9 btb, doing lunch hence will be solemnizing on a separate date (30/5). GDL will be done abt 2 weeks before rom in May and an chuang will be done on the same day.
House reno will only be done next year cuz bto not ready yet..
I think August (7th mth) will more or less still be doing some last min stuff like decorations/scheduling/meeting up w the jiemeis to go through stuff etc.. But most of the stuff should be done by July..
Most seniors will not want you to do anything for the wedding during this period.. but if your seniors are modern ones, then still can do lah..can we try gown fitting on 7th mth?
Wondering when are you guys doing GDL? Cuz I'm not sure when I should do mine.
My AD is on 09/09 but Ghost Festival is 15/07-31/08.
Isit a must to do one month in advance?
I was planning to do on 01/09.

My MIL is super duper superstitious, so basically she won't allow us to do these during that period:
Choose gown
Photoshoot
Buy jewelry
Collect keys from BTO
Cut/color hair
GDL
Choose photo
Basically, EVERYTHING related to the wedding she won't allow. So we'll just follow suit lor.
thanks for sharing.. mine would be hard, will be holding lunch and soleminzing on 3rd sept itself. and worst, getting a resale house my 1st hdb appt scheduled till April, will only get the house earliest end of May or start of June, quite unlikely my house reno + moving can complete before August T.T
anyone have recommendation for gd and afforable bridal shop?
I am in similar situation. What I understand from most IDs is that the whole renovation probably take about 8 weeks. Maybe to shorten the time to renovate the hse, you can start looking around now.
Cut/ color hair as well? i thought if doing it only 1 or 2 weeks before.. can't be doing that 1 month before, won't it be too early?
hahaha! secretly go touch up lor.. no choice... :X
yah... but no choice lah...oppps have to spend another sum for the touch up =X

Yes, he quite funny. To him he said last time our grandmother era or even older era where got ROM or sign paper de. Signing the paper is just for the law. Last time once you went tru traditional ceremony or tea serving, consider married off. Which I find he makes a point there.I like his advices too! he actually laughed at many of such "traditions" and told us those are not traditions or auspicious at all. but he also added that if the elders really want the couple to follow certain traditions, "just do it lor".
Hi ladies, my ROM and actual wedding lunch will be on the same day. My intention is during solemization to wear short dress and during march in to wear long gown. Not sure when my hubby pick me at morning can I wear the short dress with veil? And when I reach the hotel for the banquet to change to the long gown. Do you think it look weird for short dress with veil? Can give me some advice pls ? Thanks!
