Madelaine, yup it'll come up to this amount for a more elaborate gown. Borrow another gown for your photoshoot for better value...;) My kua is borrowed from Sil, FOC. The simple embroidery is actually quite flattering, as opposed to the heavily-embellished ones which are very stiff and bloated...

Hi gals Just came back from my honeymoon. littlepanda and Madelaine, I've emailed the link to you. Ryes, the Hilton was fantastic. At first I thought June, the banquet manager wasn't too cooperative, but in the end she really took the effort to make sure everything went well. Derrick, the...

Hi count My AD is next Friday! Just finished making my ang pow box and the corsages for my entourage. Took me one whole day! Yup, the kua is from Sil. You can loan it FOC. They also have a beige coloured one, if you want something different.

Hi Aleixis The RSVPs and table arrangements are indeed driving us bonkers. Turns out that my fiance's camp is going to have an exercise beginning on my AD! Now the guest list is a mess! *sigh* Trying to not think abt it now. The Guo Da Li is happening this Saturday and my hen party will be...

Hi Ryes and Aleixis! I'm right in the middle of both your timelines. My photoshoot is over and I've received the CD of my photos. My AD is in 2 weeks! Panic stations! Ryes, I went to 2 places only, Fullerton and Sentosa. At Sentosa, I went to the waterfall outside Rasa Sentosa and Tanjung...

Hi Ryes Since you still have time, you can communicate with your designer before the final touches go on, just in case there were any misunderstood ideas. Trying calling or email if you can't go down, or if you're pai seh. Besides getting the fit right, you can also check the finer details...

Hi Ryes I felt the same when I had my first fitting. Do let your designer know if you have any doubts. See if anything can be done to make your gowns look closer to what you really want. We are paying quite a bit after all. When's your photoshoot? If you still have some time before your...

Hi ling Happy 2 know u had a good time at Sil. Like u, I also liked the very first gown I tried on at Sil, so I chose to have a ballgown. Great choice with Pentaserve! Kwang's works r very artistic. I only managed to go to 2 studios, O Studio n Chris Ling. Chris Ling's photos r so-so, but they...

Hi Ryes The weather scared me a bit as well. It was raining quite heavily the few days before my shoot. Panicked when it was cloudy in the morning. Luckily the weather turned out ok by late afternoon. Don't worry, Jaki won't charge you for the extra day if it does rain, I've checked. I...

Hi rokko Your big day is tomorrow, huh? Congrats, gal! Hi Ryes The photoshoot went great! Trust me, you'll enjoy yourself like I did when you turn comes! I'm actually a little sad now that its over, cos I had a great time. Will share the pics with you when they're ready.

Hi count Sent you the pics liao. Ling I can't open your email due to some technical error. Can u pls send it again?

Hi Madelaine As far as I know, Sil doesn't make tea dresses. I asked them about borrowing a tea dress or Kua for my tea ceremony, and Miah said they only have Kuas. If you wanna get a tea dress, you can try empire and olive suite. Hi verie My mum wants her makeup and hair done by Gin also...

Hi ryes You mean which MUA I wanted? I didn't know any of the MUAs Sil ties up with, so I left it to Miah to decide for me. He chose Gin and Jasmine, because they're good with the natural look, but in the end I got Gin due to schedule clashes with Jasmine. I think she's great, very friendly...

Hi Madeleine Rest assured that all 3 of the designers at Sil are very talented. Although my designer is not Minda, I think she's got a good eye for design. she gave me some comments on my gowns as well. Hi ryes Its better to have your shoes ready by the first fitting so that your gown...

Hi rokko So u were the bride i gatecrashed! So sorry... aiyah, didn't have a good look at u. Your AD is on 10th Sep (very soon!)...That was my initial choice, but it was too rushed for me. We teachers can only get married during school holidays, haha. So you're going for your honeymoon in...
