bride-to-be

my hubby will be buying new shoes but he said he may still wear his other shoes for ps. for myself i hv already bought a pair, around $43. wondering how not to dirty it during the ps,dun really want to waste $$ on shoes cos i dun really wear such high heels for work.

putise baby

nice pixs...i really like ur tea dress, it's so sweet. btw my flat is in punggol too, 101 side opp the econ minimart, will only be moving in after my customary.

meow

did u manage to source for the cooker n hob? i bought rhoyxan (oops, forgot the exact spelling), so far so gd.

 

[lkf]

meow

u working tonite?

 

[bride-to-be]

lkf
yah lor..i seldom wear heels too.Did u buy a open toe?my PS shoes is a open toe & 1 colour fit all colour gowns
if u r going to the bride,buy a pair of sandal/slipper cos if u need to walk on the rock it's very slippery & dangerous..maybe u should ask ur hubby not to wear new shoes or maybe just at the studio cos if the photographer ask him to walk on the water then u got to say bye bye to the shoes.

sorry wrong spelling

if u r going to the beach,bring a pair of sandal/slipper cos if u need to walk on the rock it's very slippery & dangerous..maybe u should ask ur hubby not to wear new shoes or maybe just at the studio cos if the photographer ask him to walk on the water then u got to say bye bye to the shoes.

Hi ladies,

Like 1027 n sammi, i m also on the splurging side... now thinking of getting a dress for my Guo Da Li... sigh... my FH cham lor... hee hee

Just went with my future MIL to buy jewellery yesterday...
As my own parents and relatives on my side gave me jewellery in white gold, i opted yellow gold for jewellety
yeap, it's true that this is somewhat for show
but also for membrance sake... though money $$$ is really more practical hee hee
i chose a necklace and bracelet set...
My MIL asked me to choose one more item (earing/ ring), but couldn't find anything i like... so opted out...
hee hee

Amerline,
would be going to TC later in the evening...
can't resist... hee hee

 

[meow]

Lkf,
Oh, no lah, i jus came back home at that time and finish bathing after a whole day event.

I think i prefer Fujioh hood. As for hob, i'm lost. I will prefer to get those hob that when turn to smaller flame, the bigger ring will go off ones. Think Fujioh and Techogas can do that. But i dun really like the hob from fujioh cos its too silver. The pan support is silver instead of black

Pilates is more on balancing. In Hatha Yago there's some Pilates involved. Dun think it's a fast solution to lost those pound.

[shirlynn]

Hi Amore /Meow / Lkf,

My mum just passed away the previous friday. We have to get married within 100 days or we have to postpone the wedding till three years later.

I am only back to the office today... Now really blur of what to do... I have to re-arrage everything..

Not too sure now what do I need...

 

[jus]

Hi Amerline,

Went to TC last evening n bought a CS!!!
(See my posting at TC thread)

Rick mentioned that one of the 2 gowns that you chose has been sold!!!
But the maroon one is still available!

 

[min]

Leo29,

You know Orchard Hotel have this promotion: Every 10 table, you get 1 free. When I sign up in end March'03, they dun have this promotion. This promotion start April'03. I called them up, ask them whether can accomodate for my package to have their promotion, they say can't. So disappointed and I am only a week earlier signing up when they lauched this promotion.

 

[yve]

Shirlynn,
My consolences to you. Take care of yourself and family. I am here to help if u need any.

 

[wedsoon]

Shirlynn,
My deepest consolences to you. Take Care ...if you need my help, please feel free to tell me....

 

[gwen]

harlo.i am new to this thread and am a dec bride too! =) i'm with divine and studio d'fia!

 

[feb]

Shirlynn

My consolences to you 2. Take care of yourself ya.

Amore

You have your PS at Changi beach so where is your second location. At first I intend to go Changi beach is because my photogrpaher told me there is lalang since Punggol has been redeveloped liao...
But if we were to choose sentosa , there will not be time to go elsewhere lor..so this is the disavantage

Meow

You set off at 4pm huh..then maybe there is a high possibility that we will meet each other..However I pray hard that it will not rain on tat day cos these few days keep raining in the afternoon..sian leh...

 

[leo29]

Oh no Shirlynn, very sad to hear this. But you must be strong, Okie.

Min,

Really! But me no heart pain lah becos I signed up last year mah furthermore that time I also signed up their promotion package-Citiback Cr card so I believe i cannot entitle to this promotion.

Bride-To-Be,

So you are another bride that is born in 73'.

, me too. When I go thru the list, I notice the two bridal shop that you signed up with, both are well known and can really produce nice gown. How come you are not satisfied with the first one that you signed up with?

 

[mrs]

hello...hello ladies!

Sorry for not posting for so long!

My photoshoot is on Wednesday and I'm really excited over it! We went to see Andrew Choi on last Saturday and decided to leave the venues of photoshoot to him. Most likely, I'll be going to the Kallang river and the areas around the Parliament house.

I'm going for my FINAL fitting (phew! This is my fifth!) tonight, complete with all the accessories. Will try and pdate you girls then!

 

[maya]

hi ladies, I think I'm most chin chye abt my preparation, maybe bec I really no time, and very very practical, so cut out a lot of frills. Bridesmaid dresses, let them wear what they want, no flower girl, no montage. Speech? I think will say something on that day but I am not going to plan for it, let it be spontaneous, think my FH may need to prepare his....! I got no prob with off the cuff. Haven't plan for honeymoon yet, can't find time, cannot agree with FH where to go and how much to spend, so that's on hold.
Only prepared song list, did wrist corsage, did some own cards (hotel didn't give enuff).....haevn't thot abt program for the day tho am trying to list it out.....

 

[amerline]

hi jus

good that its sold! less distractions.....can save my money for other uses!

 

[putise baby]

shirlynn,

my consolences to you... take care and remember, it's because God loves her which is why she's with Him now.

 

[lkf]

shirlynn

my deepest condolence on the passing of your mother. like wat leo said, u must be strong n take gd care of yourself.

leo, yve n bride-to-be

so we have more companies now...

 

[mt]

My condolences to Shirlynn. I hope the re-arrangements go well for you.

 

[shirlynn]

Dear all,

Thanks!

 

[jus]

Hi Amerline,

Quite true…
Unlike me, have to spend another few hundred dollars…
Sigh…
Somehow just can’t resist…

How? Have you finally manage to choose the photos and negotiate with your bridal boutique?

 

[1027]

hello good morning everyone!
start of a new week again .... xianz!

cookiecorgi: huh? can change date so easily ah?
why the sudden change of dates?
dun worry abt your photoshoot.
may i suggest something? collect your gowns 2 days before the shoot, or better still, collect the gowns the day before the shoot and immed bring it down to the studio. On actual day of shoot got many many things to carry!
oh yes, sleep early too!

amerline: yah, must REALLY control myself. he took so many nice pics of us! but really cannot afford $19k, so have to budget. sob sob!

stressed: hahahahaa, you are super funny! you must be marrying either the only son or the only child. either way, the ball is in your court indeed! good lah, at least you have your hub on your side regardless whether your PILs like you or not.

I think i won't be getting the si dian jin coz of all the traditions that i dropped. some more i think my PILs think that i am a very "no nonesense" kind of person, so maybe they think no need to give me si dian jin. Well, it'll be nice to have but not necessary lah (esp when they're paying for the banquet!). Too bad for me lah ...

jus: har? guo da li must have new dress ah?
sorry i dunno coz i won;t be having any guo da li (i dun even know what its all about in the first place!). But never mind lah, now got Great singapore sale. if you come across a dress on a great bargain, just buy first!

great singapore sale ... very tempting!

 

[jus]

Hi 1027,

No-lar, not necessary to have a new dress for the guo da li…
As I would not be ‘praying to ancestors’ on my actual day (in Singapore, hometown in KL), would be praying n guo da li at the same time…
Tot would be nice to get one…
Hahaha…
Just an excuse, in a way…
FH said, no more dresses for me! Hee hee…

Yeap, so tempting GSS…
Have not really been shopping, though…
Just buying all the wedding thingy…

 

[amore]

shirlynn... sorry to hear dat... my deepest condolences...

Feb... i told my photographer... I want lallang... and beach... so he brought me to the lallang field near Changi outside safra CC then the beach outside safra CC... initially he wanted to bring us to botanical gardens.. but becoz I wanted to go sentosa.. so he brought us to sentosa instead...

 

[1027]

even wedding thingys are getting to me !!!
i already have so many outfits for the actual day, and i can still get tempted to buy more!
why? just coz the boutique was having a GSS !
argh .... so hard to stay away fr the sales!

 

[amore]

bride-to-be... sorry for being kaypoh... er wat happen to the PS??... mind telling us?

 

[1027]

anyone started booking honeymoons yet?

 

[jus]

Hi 1027,

Tell me about it…
Same same…
Just want to get more dresses and things etc etc…
Sigh, what to do, girls-mah…

What else do we need to do?
Guest list, itinery line-up, anything else?

 

[cherub]

Helo girls
Very long nvr post here liao...Think u all forget mi liao....heheh
Mi going for first fitting tis wed...Excited coz dunno how i look like...wish mi luck!

 

[cherubies]

Hi all,

LT, like sleepy, won't be having coordinated dresses for bridesmaids. as long as "appropriate dressing" ok. hee hee...

for speech, my fh will be saying. for gift probably flowers. for flower gal dress will try to look around for them. if i can find one nice one this weekend.sleepy, i'll let you know.

my march-in, and recessional songs not done, worship songs, leader confirm but pianist backed out. so may have to resort to cds. program sheets only pending pastor's approval. honeymoon unconfirmed by chanbrothers... invites not out yet. *sigh*

so many things to do...
