hey berypig,
my indoor is nicer than outdoor, but i'm having a Big Headache now, too many to choose, and i don't want to spend too much $$ buying more!!!!!
i have 23 pieces free, but yesterday i like 50 pieces..so i have to cut the number down again
how many pieces did you girls choose, including already the no. of pieces that is in your package already??? and did you girls take small photos to put in the album as well??

HI strawberry,
Wow....your photos must have turn out to be very good for you to choose out 50. For us to cut down to be about 30 only. We dun want to spend too much on the photo album cos we want to emphasize and spend more on our actual day.
I have 20 pieces already included in the package. So, overall, I only increase 10 pieces lor. I also spend to have a potrait. So, hmmm....in the end still spend quite a bit of money....Well, think we will end up throwing the album aside after the wedding too.
Berypig - I am also considering Bengawan Solo to cos my FH's frd is an owner of one of the branches. MIght be cheaper. Polar very ex leh. But their cakes are very very nice...

hi corie,
hmm, i guess everyone's the same, to see a lot nice ones and couldn't decide which to choose. That's why i didn't make a decision last night and insisted on going back again so that i can cool my head off and hopefully draw out some from the 50.
We're thinking of buying 12 more photos, which means i have to give up 15 photos. your package doesn't include portrait?

Hi everyone,
Just to check with all of you… My friend is offering a service to create a SIMPLE slide show (no transition effect) of 36 photos with sound track for a nominal fee of $30 and wanna check anyone over here interested or not. The slideshow can be viewed from the VCD player. I thought it’s not a bad idea for the conversion to VCD for my parents to keep. Actually, the VCD can be used during the tea ceremony (because the big album will be probably be displayed at one side only, say like the groom’s house for his relatives. So the VCD can be played at the bride’s house for relatives who arrive early), or displayed during cocktail reception (with a TV outside or a projector inside) to kill time for guests who arrive early. But I think it may be too simple for a photo montage introduction before march-in. So… anyone interested? Can drop me a mail…
Oh btw, if u wan to have more tacks on the same VCD, it’s possible and there will be some discount…
Sigh, as for wedding preparations… I’m not so kan cheong cos I’m one of the last… Good luck to those early November brides for your preparation! And…. Relax relax…

strawberry, glad that your photos turn out to be good
. I think 30+ photos will make the album very heavy already. I never choose any extra cos photos not very nice and my orginal no of photos oredi 30+. However, if u really like the pics a lot and u have enuff $$ to spare, then u might want to choose more , else i think it is better to spend on your actual day or honeymoon.
Corie, polar very expensive hor.. Hai.. i like their cakes a lot. Will be buying at most 20 boxes only so maybe still affordable
I will go n take a look at their prices later ..hee

Having this thought too, apply for 18/11 onwards. But thinking of clearing all my work on 18 and leave start on 19... sianz... take leave also headache.
My Guo Da Li is next Tuesday, 29/11...
<FONT COLOR="0000ff">Angelia</FONT>
what if I've 3 bros and 3 ah yees? good or bad? if not, I've to get 4 each already... then I'll have a total of 8. btw, some of my ah yee and bros are already married and with kids too... does it matter too? very problematic hor.

i think better take 4 ah yees & 4 brothers.. not good to hv odd numbers for such joyous occasion lah.
as for married or single, i think that depends on individual lor.. some say okie, some say not.. but i "thought" all along, the eastern tradition is Ah Yee shld be single (that why some people dun want to be ah yee too many times (e.g 1 of my fren), scared she'll be left on the shelf), but for western culture, they hv "Maid of Honour" -> Single & "Matron of Honour" -> Married.. so i oso a bit confused.. but since i more "traditional" species, so i tot i follow "eastern" tradition lor.

angelia,
according to wat i heard, they say 4+4 better cos it's equal to 8. Dunno leh.... i also prefer 6+6.
For sisters, they r all single but for brothers 2 of them r married... can or not?
No problem about having dinner on 2nd Dec. Perhaps can even meet Nick on the same day hor, then can have a preview of my actual day pics.

ohno,
i understand.... taking leave can be a headache. I took my leave so early also partly becos i'm afraid my boss will gimme last minute work to do and ask me to go back on 18th and 19th, then i'll have no time to rest.
i think never mind about your ah yees being married...... otherwise very difficult to find subsitute.

Heehee.....
