Depends on to what extent you and your fiancé and both your families believe in "forbidden" matters such as these. If everyone's ok with your friend helping then there shouldn't be an issue. If you and your fiancé are ok but feel that your parents may not be happy, then you two need to discuss...

Haha try not to worry too much.. They'll eventually find some common topic for small talk at least.. And yeah, best if they can click. If they can't, well, don't let that bug you too much..

You said she didn't mention marriage counseling but have you tried suggesting it to her? Maybe can gently prompt her to consider at least for your daughter's sake to go for counseling together? Then at least you can both identify the issues at hand and get a chance to at least try to work things...

Hey gals... My parents met with my in-laws for the first time during the food-tasting session at the hotel haha (coz our ROM is same day as AD) so that's about 1-2 months before the wedding maybe? Either way, every family's different so don't get too daunted about it - take it one step at a time...

Either get the album or buy the song from iTunes... ;)

Hmm I suppose they may start imposing on you to join in the religious rituals including ancestral worship even if they don't ask you to convert and they'll start to say it's part of filial piety etc. Yea, you should really discuss with your fiancé what's his stand if situations like this should...

What kind of unreasonable requests have your MIL made with regards to your marriage? Also what is your religion and what is your fiance's religion? Is there something about his religion that makes it hard for you to convert to his? Are your in-laws coercing you to convert as well and is your...

We didn't give our parents any ang pows but we gave them presents instead. As for unmarried siblings, we gave a single ang pow together during the tea ceremony. I don't think it makes much difference - you can either give a single one with a particular sum or you can give two red packets but...

Yes, it can be very tricky if they get overly superstitious... And yes, I can understand how if anything should happen in the future, you will easily get the blame even if it's not your fault at all... I hope you and your hubby will be able to find another person who can verify that your current...

Money can certainly solve some problems but not all problems. Are they the ones who are paying for everything then? If not, just tell them that you and your fiancé don't have that sort of money that can supposedly solve all problems... And even if both of you are super rich, let them know that...

Have you tried explaining to them that changing the arrangement will mean having to book and pay all the vendors for a separate day's service whereby not all vendors are necessarily available on that day (e.g. PG may be doing a prewedding photoshoot that day) and you'll have to pay double the...

I'm sorry to hear that you have to face all these... Yes, it's common for many to give their opinions on how YOUR wedding should be run and most of the time, these people are either people who have yet to get married themselves (wait till they plan their own wedding then only they'll understand...

@jgkc18 and @traciee , it's easy to misunderstand one another especially in the midst of all the stress of planning a wedding so let's give and take a little and know that we're here not to judge but to help one another ya? :)

Haha no worries... ;)

Lol... Not sure if you quoted the right quote in your last post... But I'm gonna assume it was a typo and that reply was meant for me so, you're welcome, hehe... And whosever birthday it is, happy birthday to the birthday boy! ;)

There is no specific order on how you should run the banquet. Yes, there will usually be some sort of recommended itinerary but the key word here is "recommended" and not "compulsory"... If you want some sort of preview before the first march-in, you can play a DIY montage video consisting of...

I think I've posted some thoughts about this in an earlier post. But just to add on a lil more with regards to what you posted - usually you can bid BTO under fiancé/fiancée scheme and it will take several years before the flat's completed. Those few years should be relatively sufficient time to...

Well, if you're not going to show any morning highlights video, you can still rearrange to show your childhood montage video before your 2nd march-in (instead of before your 1st march-in) so there will still be some sort of "filler" to show to your audience between the two march-ins... :)

Hi hi!! It's not a duh question so don't worry.. ;) I used Beautiful In White for my 1st march-in during my banquet.. At first we did the same - walked quite slow but coz our aisle is quite long, we ended up getting a friendly prompt by the banquet manager to walk a lil faster haha.. The song...

Don't get too stressed ya? Hopefully by your AD, it's long enough for French manicure.. I did French too for my prewedding photoshoot but opted for nude pink with glitter for a more shimmery natural look on my AD..
