(2002) Brides of year 2002

Angelia
Yup.From the list u compiled, 5 weddings on the same day as yours. Good auspicious day. Maybe your friends know the others on the list. Aiyah, can understand how u feel.

Never mind, invite other pp who will take special note to make your day. You might be surprised that pp that u don't think so much of might actually cherish your friendship more than u think.

Angelia,

don't worry be happy.
Perhaps there might be some turning points when they change their mind or cannot book the tickets etc.

Mine is quite OK. The few i ask agreed to come.
Only that one of my 'sister' cannot make it coz her granny just pass away. Don't know where to find one replacement coz a few of my close friends are overseas.

By the way, anyone having buffet catering?
I need to find one but not sure which is good and nice.
Saw the 'select' menu. Not bad and not very expensive.

Any other recommendation?

Irene
 
<FONT COLOR="aa00aa">jowie,</FONT>
problem is my "close fren" not enuff to fill 1 table.. &amp; hor, 1 of them actually gotta "rush" b4 me due to some reasons.. hiaz...
 
<FONT COLOR="0000ff">thanks for all ur kind words.</FONT>


<FONT COLOR="aa00aa">irene,</FONT>
i'll be getting from my fren.. however, me oso no disc..

same as u lor, my that close fren who's gonna be my "ah yee" oso cannot make it liao.. now i gotta find replacement!!
 
Yeh, Jowie is right!
As long as close friends &amp; relatives come.
My friend who's now stationed in Japan is trying to get leave to come during my wedding.
Very touched.

Aiyoh, Jowie, u better try to finalise it quickly. Then can send out the invites. I also designed my own card. Took me and my FH a long time as we kept changing our minds. Finally sent to the printer yesterday. Just a simple card. But it's unique to just the both of us. Coz' when u put the second alphabet of our names together, it spells 'love'.
blush.gif


My FPIL already asking us for the guest list. They want to look at it...
 
Angelia,

wow, your jap friend coming ah?

Mine cannot come...even the US one not coming....
Sad......

But it's OK.

My only problem now is the 'Sister'. Don't know who to get now.....

Three friends cannot make it back in time.
One wants to celebrate birthday.

The others, if i call one must call another one...

Don't know what to do now....

Can we get those Customary liao friend?

Irene
 
<FONT COLOR="aa00aa">irene,</FONT>
actually, think it's okie to get those frenz who oready gone thru customary. but best thing is to dbl check with ur mum.. or grandma, in case they mind
 
Irene...i will be using a caterer called Jia Yan, quite cheap at $10 per head, my frend wedding use them and most of the guests said the food is nice. If u need i can email you their contacts

Apple...so special!! at least yr wordings got meanings...i got problem finding the wordings for the front of my cards and in the end i anyhow put "Made to be Mr &amp; Mrs...3 Nov 2002", below our photos

Angelia...last evening me received email from the msia hotel and i almost fainted...their wedding cards horrrrr...sigh...dunno wat to say....i waited for more than a mth for them to Q for scanner, scan the cards and finally email me...tink i ask BIL to choose liao...give up
sad.gif


Bluechin...another nice mooncake! my boss juz bring back mini mooncake tarts from Harbour City Restaurant, beri nice leh, got almond nuts at the sides
 
<FONT COLOR="aa00aa">jowie,</FONT>
aiyo, my msia side, i wash hands.. not up to us to hv any say, anyway.. juz hope it's 1, instead of 2 dinners. &amp; it's on the weekend we wanted!!

oh, a pretty respectable "sifu" told my fren cannot wear wedding gown on 2 days.. so i'm not wearing WG in msia liao.. save the trouble to carry to &amp; fro as well.

Tiger too fierce, rats clash on that day.

Thanks

Irene
 
Angelia - recd the list liao. Thanks
Seem like no 21. bumblebee wedding date same
as mind or is this a typo error ?
I only have Page 4 "birthday list" but
howcome page 5 is a blank You compound all this info, no wonder you are known Da jie Da.

Anyone have have a check list what
are the items require for "Guo Da Li".
my mom &amp; MIL have different views.
Cantonese vs Hokien tradition, need help...

Jowie - my will be at 175 series, near future
LRT. 600 series is still under construction
so guess you will be getting your key by end of
next year. Your ROM and wedding falls on the

your muscle to carry furniture. Maybe can help Jowie too hor.

JenJen - u r checking air-tickets prices

jojo...morning will be tea ceremony, afternoon rest and evening solemnisation cum dinner
happy.gif


<FONT COLOR="ff0000">Gals...if given a choice, would u wear a plain simple diamond solitair pendant necklace or crystal dropping necklace(those accessories usually provided bridal shop), if the wedding gown is have a low neckline?</FONT>
 
hi! Good Morning!

/blue{Jowie},

simple diamond solitare might look a bit small when won with a low neckline. Unless there' some special design to it.

I'll say if the crystal dropping necklace looks nice enough, go for it.

Wanna check with u gals, what should the best man wear? Should he wear the same as the groom, how about colour? My FH is wearing beige Mandarin collar in the morning. Should the best man wear anything similar? Like in terms of colour? or can he just wear a black/blue suit.

I think if my FH is wearing dark colours, not so bad, but if he wears beige, dunno whether his bestman will look wierd next to him. We're having a church ceremony.
 
Jowie,

I would go with whatever the bridal shop provides afterall, they'll match it....

Just hope that my mum won't listen to those aunties saying that i must wear the si dian jin along.

it will look so wierd.

Irene
 
Irene,

Yes, I agreed with you but think I don have a choice must wear some si dian jin becos of my MIL and grandmother insists.
 
Apple...prob yr best man can wear white shirt? i dunno leh, coz my FH bros will be wearing anything they like, no colour theme
by the way will yr hubby wear the mandarin collar at nite? my boss wedding he wear a beige mandarin collar suit, looks exactly like the hotel bell boy...

Irene...i dun hv si dian jin yet, so my FH tinking of buying me a nice diamond pendant, i am tinking if not wearing during the wedding, then prob dun buy now...but i really like one i saw in je taime...
have u receive my email regarding the caterer contact? if yes can u forward to Cherly? i din bring the contact out, tks
happy.gif

<FONT COLOR="0000ff">Sad…..
sad.gif
mee verie busie today….. my colleague on marriage leave….. I’m to help her…… Her boss also fussy like my boss but managable……Now have two bosses…..

Another bad news is that My boss has to clear his long leave in December….. Which means I can’t go for long honeymoon in December…… have to be around…..Can only settle for short trip first…… Then in January or February then I can leave for long honeymoon and it’s the colder winter days in Europe/States then…… may go in Spring…..
sad.gif
Hope by then my MIL will not want to tag along……</FONT>

Jowie,
Glad that u have already sent yr pics in to yr printer….. Yup, the running around is Fun!
happy.gif

Can also help to lose weight hor…..
biggrin.gif


In that case my daughter will be older than yr son…..yr son like older girls or not? Or yr son can be goodie friend of my son if I have a son for no 2…..?
lol.gif
At if I will have a girl and a boy.

Got nice mooncake again ah…talk about moon tarts…Jas03 says she wanna bring some for me to eat next time…… must remind her….. <FONT COLOR="ff0000">YUMMY!!!</FONT>

I like swarovski crystals as my necklace for actual day……


Apple,
I also find the wordings part of yr card very unique…..must see!
happy.gif


I think it will look fine if yr hubby wears the white suit and his best man wears black. This way, it distincts their differences


Jojo,
Sorrie can’t help you with the Guo Da Li cos mee verie blur also…..
happy.gif



Vincent,
