I didn't deal with the lady designer. I think her name is Connie?... I also had issues with her not replying on time, so my account manager got the male designer to help me instead. Who quoted you for the pricing? You may PM me.. let me see what I can do to help you.. maybe make a few phone...

Also, I think perhaps check with your mum on why she wants to meet his parents, either to discuss details about the wedding etc. Then put it across to your ILs (inform your HTB first) that there are things to be settled before the wedding. Maybe his parents didn't want to meet because there...

Rachelyn, why not tell him your concerns? He may not see the need for both sides to meet but he needs to understand what you think. It's a marriage and he needs to compromise to make things work.

Thanks Bearine! However, from what I read, towels & the ang baos is not "either or" situation, meaning both need to be given (but my ILs don't want towels)

It was the first time that it happened to me but I was told to handwash my own undies... cannot put into washing machine to wash with the rest of the clothes... so I'm a little intrigued by why.

Nudieposh, what do you think about this then?

I see... well, at least you are 3 against 1 now! Jia you jia you! LOL... maybe try to get your FIL to help to talk to his wife? Are most of the things she's requesting "do-able but just very troublesome" or "completely 100% impossible"?

Just curious... any of you (or your parents or ILs) believe that female and male clothing shouldn't be mixed in the laundry? I believe this is a superstition that the males will be down on their luck if clothing is mixed.

I only tried Choz swiss rolls as they don't sell the set individually for sampling, so I only tried the swiss rolls. I haven't tried Swee Heng before, but I decided to go for Choz because it's nearer to my place.

I think you need to talk to your HTB and come up with a plan together... whatever it is, if it's something negative, get your HTB to talk to his parents... they will be more likely to accept it if it's coming from him, rather than you. My parents are really easy going, my aunt, on the other...

I did LASIK about a month ago, and I find that I'm still not having perfect vision... will this continue to improve, or that's it liao? Like it won't keep correcting itself anymore

What are you getting for GDL? If non-perishable items, perhaps can get from Qoo10 or Taobao? If you want convenience, then those traditional Chinese wedding shops have sets/packages (but not cheap). Some of the items that will only be used once, I'm borrowing from friends. :P As for wedding...

Hi, I'm in the midst of preparing my budget for GDL and tea ceremony... now according to Hokkien tradition (that I read on the Internet), the bride needs to prepare ang bao for the groom's parents and unmarried siblings. Any idea how much I should give? Minimum amount, since we are paying for...

Girl, I feel your frustration as I'm also going through it myself. ILs are selectively superstitious and they keep changing their minds - giving their $2 (not even 2 cents) worth of comments even though they say "up to you to decide, as long as you're happy". I guess I'm lucky in a way because...

When did you start chasing relatives for RSVP?
