Hmm .. I brought my digital camera and it does have some honeymoon pics but they were mostly of sceneries so in the end I didn't dare show.

 

[destitonia]

[chern]

Hi Sandgirl72, tingting & sunnyday,
Thanks for the welcome. My BS is Everbliss.
I took OTR also.

nothing much to prepare now lei as renovation done up liao & PS also done liao. now just waiting to select photos.

 

[blurblur]

Hi jady

can i take a look at your wedding cards?

 

[pausini]

Haha, My hubby also ask me the samething. Whether we took pix together.

Guess never mind, we can still have next outing together.

 

[tingting]

hi chern,

you're lucky to get things done up already..i'm just starting to buy my electrical appliances and furniture. Any good recommendation for woody furniture?

hi sunnyday,

i haven't fixed up my appt for 1st fitting yet. maybe sometime in Aug. since my PS is in late sept, i think 1 month's leadtime is enough for the dresses.

 

[naturally]

Hihi everyone!

Had my PS yesterday, didn't know "modeling" can be so tiring, sure ain't easy acting like some "shuai ge mei nuu", haha! Marina South was surprisingly quiet on a sunday, we tooks shots amongst the trees and by the ponds, nice place to go if u like lotsa greenery. During one of the shots, photographer asked hubby to carry me, and i was so terrifed that he would drop me or that we would both fall into the pond... hee hee, shows how much confidence i have in him...

After that we proceeded to Raffles Marina, there were lots more people, quite paiseh, but the cool sea breeze was very relaxing... For one shot, photographer asked hubby to wave his jacket and me to wave my bouquet in the air, kinda felt like a pair of idiots (passerbys were smiling in amusement)! Though still it was fun acting silly!

Then we went back to the studio, viewed the digital pics on the pc, that's one good thing abt digital photography, can see the results almost immediately... and we'll be able to select the photos next week!

But tell u all hor, after i got home, i had a hard time cleaning out all the makeup and hairspray.... oh yeah, remember i was fretting over my pimples? I worried for nothing, cos the makeup covered everything lah!

 

[may]

I told my hubby that i am meeting you gals at the forum. And he keep teasing me saying that wait a bunch of guys turn up instead.

So after our outing, he asked me you all gals or boys... He was quite surprised that so many of us turn up.

I told him i most probably is the oldest and he laugh hard...

 

[chern]

Hi Tingting,
u can try barang barang, vhive?? sorry i have not much recommendation as my hse more on modern concept & no woody furniture.

 

[kare2711]

May
Ha ha. My hubby said only girls would do this kind of thing. Hmm .. quite true too hor?

Hey maybe we can make the next gathering after May, the future MD comes back. Heh. Hopefully we will have more people joining us.

 

[freesia]

Hi Naturally
Haha....feel so light-hearted and happy by just looking at your description again!
Really sounds alot of fun and happiness....
Now I can feel more relaxed after knowing abt the pimples thingy....'coz I've been very stressed n face condition really bad... ;p

 

[pausini]

My Hubby keep me how u gals look. What did we chat abt etc etc...

Guys can be very KPO too..

Heh, then we passed the bill to the future MD next round lor...

 

[piper]

hi naturally,

feel excited for u as well...tonight i'll be going to view my photos..so excited until no mood to work...hehehe.

 

[may]

Kare, Pausini: r u gals talking abt me?

I am caught in this political web that i dont know how to untangle myself...

the next time we meet, hope that more can join us...

 

[jady]

hi blurblur,

how to see ah? i've no digicam or scanner leh..

poki & vio have seen my cards & the printing. it was pretty well done(at least to us)..

 

[christmas]

hi tingting,

what kind of wood are you looking for?

for teak wood, i think plenty of shops around the island. there's one behind SAJC @ alexandra rd with a wide selection.

for chinese wood like rosewood, Samtat @ Paya Lebar and Singapore Woodcraft @ Alexandra.

 

[vio]

hi blurblur,

trust us, jady's cards were v.well done - NICE
i'll be using Hi Tec too.

[shook]

May

Ya boy, the gals r talking abt our future MD Mdm Elaine

Guess u r not the oldest lar. Think I m the most ahem senior citizen

Pausini
Yo, your hubby v nosy parker huh

Ya ya ya hope we have more gals next time

 

[tingting]

hi christmas,

i'm more desparate to find matching bedroom furniture. i've custom-made the wardrobe, and the lamination is in "wild cherry", that's something like reddish-brown. So need to find matching bedroom furniture.. half-regretting not custom-making the entire bedroom set..

 

[meow]

Serene,
For the angbao box and flowers, its very near. The tea set doesn't belongs to me...that's sunnyling's one. Sorry, i'm not sure where is sukhumvit rd

 

[cath]

Jady,
did u use normal paper as insert or u use tracing paper as insert?

 

[serene]

Hi cath,
I am using Tdragon too..using hot stamping cos my hotel card is 3 flaps..not nice with inserts though cheaper...

hotstamping: 1st100pc-$120 subq 40cts/pce
economic printing: 1st200pc-$100 subq 20cts/pce

Wow..seemed like Jady and cookiercorgi got quite good rates hah..me lazy to source around..so I just use the hotel recommended printer...they are quite patient lor.

Hi snoopy and xiong, I am having my wedding on 24 Oct too

As for GDL, my mum listed out those things that
she wants..I told MIL liao..I have a "mei ren" to help my hubby carry the things on that day..

[meow]

Besse,

[jenn]

hey serene

Chatuchak market is HUGE!!! i spent a full day there the last time i went there. dress light cos the weather is so hot and the shops there hardly has ventilation!! hehehe .. but i had fun shopping there.

Sukhumvit Road is a very long stretch of road with motels,, hotels, bars, restuarants and shops (pasar malam oso have). very vibrant. the road is usually spread out and they have nos to differentiate for eg: sukhimvit soi 21, soi 19 etc.

hope this link paints a clearer picture!

[kare2711]

Vin
I don't know about May but I am definitely one of the oldest.

Oh and it's good now to put faces behind the names.

 

[may]

Shook: i already say i am too young to be MD plus the company is not stupid. Going to make me do more without promo one. Sian...got to look elsewhere soon for greener grass to eat man.

Vin: really? what a small world that Jo knows yr hubby...

trust me, i am old...i just look like a kid that all..ha..ha

aiyo, i still have not sort out my air ticket to New york yet...someone in my headquarters..screw up.

 

[kare2711]

May
Aiyoh, what a messy company you're in. How come flying off on Sunday and you still haven't got your tickets? But good also. Maybe you will be lucky and there will be no more tickets and so you will end up having the best of the best - SQ!

And do bring me along for greener grass.

 

[cookiecorgi]

Hi gals..

Can i check sth with you? I am a little confused with wat my hubby shd wear on the actual day of our wedding... In the day, I will be wearing my WG, then tea dress for tea ceremony, first march-in in WG, then 2nd march-in in EG.

As for hubby, will be one suit to come and pick me and for the rest of the day. If he wanna wear a tux, can he wear the same tux for both the first and second march in?

hee. thanks!!
