Thanks gal.. will get in touch with CH

i went 2 nick's studio.. the flight of stairs damn high! *faintz...and pantz..

Don think we signing with NG, cos he cant make it for the day, and we only like his style and his eyes for details.. I was quite disappointed.. really.. and when i said i want him for the evening photography, my bf said no point, cos will break the flow of the day.. darn frustrating!!!

Haha.. speaking of NG, i was reading his thread alll the way from beginning.. and i was v amused by the hoo haa that he had created.. in fact, i was v impress with his guts and his insistence on his rights.. this guy is a talent.. and no choice, talents are eccentric! so long he doesn't turn eccent on me.. i'm fine.. hiaks!

 

[priscilla]

HI min,
hope the details I have provided you is useful to you, but like not so good let others know about my dinner package online, so what do you think of my package? Can give comments one cos me anything one.

 

[min]

Pris,

Which bridal shop did you sign up with? Went to jazreel low & J&M today. Quite confused. Like JLC service but looks loke their photographing not as good as J&M. & thinks J&M OTR gowns looks newer. Any advise?

 

[sweets]

Hi all,
I'm back home liao..just flew in 2 hrs ago..hehe..and on SB liao...addictive hor ? Wah, you all already printing invites...kekeke...I better buck up soon

Hello girls

Think me settle most stuff except videography which I am clueless on what I want and shoes shopping. Heard from the other girls that normally for first fitting, your actual day shoes need to be ready right? So we need to visualise how our EG WG looks like and get the shoes before seeing our gowns? My bridal studio advises me on silver color shoes since I will be wearing duchess silk. But think I no want to spend so much money on shoes as my EG is white(silver shoes with white EG look weird)
Then for videography, thought of doing a DIY. Just use my camcorder to do snip shots then use pinnacle or adoble premiere to do editing. Wonder if me suffering from pre wedding jitters.
Seem to be very gan jiong with stuff.

 

[meow]

Besse,
Oh, so you went to his studio. I've not been to his studio yet. Not sure go down there for what purpose too???
Evening photography? What about outdoor photography from him then?
Wow, you read everything in the thread. Me too lazy to read all their posting.

 

[shanice]

Hi Sweets!

U r Back!!!!!

wah so fast log on here liao ah? keke... how long were u away? Welcome back!

we had an outing yesterday... me, priviledged, and beibei! Was fun! Saw Beibei's rejected samples (her PS), i showed them my tioman pics - taken with own cam), and Priviledged is so knowledgable abt NZ... i was so impressed... cos i'm the type who can't handle F & E trips! ahaahahhahaa can't read maps.

we chatted till quite late, abt 10pm rite? hehe i think so lah.

hope that we can have another outing, maybe by April... and more will attend, would be fun definitely!

Sue: yes, the train is detachable.

Jan, sue: thanks for your sweet compliments. I hope to be able to see some gown pictures too.

Shook: i am a little confused. So i shld go behind CK shop, n look for the shop next to the one directly behind CK? Is it?

Maya: i sent pix to you liao.

Kare: u look really lovely. With the veil it really transform you and you look more complete. I like your hair down, you look really sweet. The gown looks more fitting now, did you get them to tighten for you? So where did you go for ps outdoor?

 

[vivace]

Hi Ally and Shirsweetiepie

I have just completed my first wrist corsage last nite.

Looking forward to hear from your soon!

 

[leo29]

Sunrise,

My PS is on Jul 23. Same same, my WG/EG is not confirmed yet. I will meet up with my designer this april. You are not late, don’t worry.

Min,

Food tasting, not so soon. Guess will be Aug/Sept. Will let you know.

Wen,

$400 for extra make up. Very ex. lei.
So sad, I only manage to play 2 times during CNY. But nevermind lah becos normal day we play almost every sat so at least can ease my itchy hand. Hahaha….

 

[pausini]

Maya: u are right! anyway, comments from friends that the shot is good and nature. only that two styles of the indoor shot doesnt turn up well. Jazreel - lady boss is very nice. I met her yesterday, she told me i can retake all if i really dun like my pix. Since i have managed to chose 40 pix for this round, i opt not to retake. My friends keep saying it was well taken, i guess my coordinator is right. i wasnt in good condition when i 1st went down to look at my pix, furthermore, the 1st pix i saw is the one that i totally didnt select. Now, relook seem better.

Think i am simply a 'ma fang' woman.

Kare: i deleted the email u sent me previously.
can u send me the link again
[email protected]
thanks

 

[leo29]

Sunnyling,

Me same same, before CNY lose until I scared and had ask my hubby to stop playing for a moment. Not me only but my hubby also. You can imagine how siong.

Serrich,

Yes, most of the things you mention here I prepare also. Rice and salt was to mix in a bowl and throw as you walk into the hse(Whole hse). Hammer is only necessary if your flooring is done by HDB becos we never Dong Tu. Here knock knock there knock knock to symbolize reno. Jossstick and paper is for the Tu Di Gong. Don’t play play with the Tu Di Gong. My neighbour never pray when they start their reno and he disturb them when they move in, not serious lah, just move their god statues to a side whenever they move it back to the position. Scary hor! They go to temple to seek help and was told they had offend the Tu Di Gong. Was ask to pray to Tu Di Gong and ater that everythings was OK.

Besse,

I was doing international sales for electronics machines, so often have clients from oversea. Very siong this week, today afternn go JB, tomorrow had to go Penang.
Don't worry, it’s OK for you to SMS me anytime,

. Yah, I was about to ask you faster settle your bridal package. If you want MTM package I think april you have start to doing the gown already. As for OTR package, it’s also time to select the gown already. If not, you will have problem getting a nice gown. Are and Novgroom already selected their gowns already.

 

[cherub]

Helo ting ting
I not sure for Barnabas's studio n outdoor (i'm using Utopia)But his actual day fotos seem qt cheerful...u shld call him n mit up wif him.He seems qt ok.I paid my deposit liao.
=)
Natually,
He din tell mi but i asked him coz i think the slot-in kind shld be enuf for mi..more pix mah...heheh

 

[berry]

Hi Elaine..

I like your shoots alot especially your indoors. I find them interesting enuff..

Actually your photographer should be proud of this, if it is not only contributing your effort then it won,t turn out to be extra ordinary.

Anyway regarding about the web site, how long does u take to complete that and is it complicated?

 

[jan2003]

Shook: good idea. have to propose and see if my sis agrees. sigh. thanks for the offer. good news for me. war on so my FH is on his way back. company recall all of them because they are in middle east. past few days have been very stressful. i keep watching news and without cable at home, channel newsasia seems to be just re-cycling their news which can be very frustrating. he will touch down tonight so i am looking forward to seeing him. situation over there not very bleak. guess no one wants a war. if only things like biological warfare is non-existant. without war, people are already dying. heavy morning for me.

May: my pleasure, just telling the truth!

Pausini: yippe. happy for you. now that is settled have good rest ok. no need to worry anymore and yes she is nice to offer retake. at least option is there and see, all your friends say pics are good. happy right! not "ma fan" woman lah. we all just want the best for this important moment of our life.

kare2711: if convenient, do send me the link yeah.

Very excited now. can't wait for night time to come.

 

[wen]

Leo29,
No choice, that is his rate. His makeup package (PS, Actual Day & Night without trial) is $1500. $400 is after discount.

Decided to do PS only in the afternoon and will not split. Studio and 1 outdoor location. There are too many places I want to go. Now having a hard time deciding where to go. On actual day, arrange for another photographer to take outdoor shoot around hotel area.

 

[jenny]

Hi Yi, Elaine,

Both your wedding photos are admirable.

Elaine,
I'm thinking of learning Macromedia Flash to do a website like what you have. Is it difficult to learn (by reading)?

 

[priviledged]

Hi Sweets, welcome back! It must feel very different to be back and knowing that a whole new life awaits you.

Yes, the outing was quite fruitful last night. Saw all the lovely photos of Shanice's and Beibei's and found out a lot about guodali and other preparations that I haven't done!!

 

[pausini]

Jan: so happy for u. At least FH back and both of u can work on the preparation together.
Yah yah no more worry... now can work on other stuffs liao. I dun think i can give out my card before Ching Ming. I am still in the process of confirming my wordings. Guess the earliest to get the insert shld be next week.

My MIL still cant decided which day she want to "Guo Da Li". I think i better list out the items outstanding... time is running out!!!

 

[may]

Pausini: so happy for you. Wow, the lady boss is so nice. U got 40 photos - tat alot. No you can breathe a huge sigh of relief. Can sense that you were very upset but now that it is over ...hurray...any chance we can see some of your photos.

Jan: I also very happy for you. Now u can go w FH to select photos. Hurray...he can also help to lighten the stress and load that you have been handling.

 

[beibei]

[serrich]

Glad u all enjoyed yr meeting yesterday. Me had a good pre-marriage counselling 2. My rehearsal will be 2 days b4 actual cos my reverend not free (he going for camp n will only be back in the morn of the rehearsal date)

I very worried leh - my monthly 'blood loss' overdue by 3 days liao. My FH says going to sue Giants Parkway Parade for selling defective rubbers

Hope will turn up soon otherwise siao liao

 

[pucca]

Sweets,
welcome back to S'pore !!! home sweet home isnt it..

*hugz*

 

[beibei]

abrinas,

think it might be stressed that delay that monthly event...me was delayed for twelve days and was panicky like hell...luckily it came on tues..so phew!!

 

[shirsweetiepie]

Afternoon vivace (vivace)

Great!! so how was it? managed to get it done?

decide to go ahead wif ur DIY corsages etc?

 

[pausini]

May:
can i know what digital camera are u using? Dun mind me comment. Why all the pix u take so blur one? Did u shake? but it doesnt seem like the shaking effect leh. The color seem not rich leh??

So u also in the white collection for ur living room & furniture? Very neat, i like the dining chair. where did u order ur dining set?

U got an oven? i always wanted an oven like that but i didnt get it eventually. out of my budget. *Sigh*

I think we bought the same coffee table only that mine is rectangular. i think we have the same Tv console leh... later i send u my Tv console pix. u see is it the same?

The view from ur flat is good, no blockage. shld be windy.

Thanks for sharing.

 

[abrinas]

beibei
Wah, 12 days. Is yr mthly always regular? Normally if regular n suddenly late, very panicky want. My FH was saying it cld be b'cos i just dropped off the pill in dec n my body's getting back to its normal cycle again tt's why maybe delay this mth. Maybe i was so used to it being on time when on the pill liao.

Maybe i will wait a couple more days.

I know how u feel liao. Panick for 12 days. Me 3 days onli already nearly xiao liao. Tks for consoling me.
