(2003) Brides of year 2003

[naturally]

hi gals! I see enya and bobomagic are very active this morning!

bobomagic, if u want LG's package details, give me your email address and i'll email to u lor... dun want to bore other people here, hehe!

Wah... so romantic to have a bride sailing in for solemnisation... macham like foreign princess crossing seas to marry her price charming, hehehe!

Enya, agree that facials are not needed unless u feel u have some skin problems... for me, i wanted to try whether can rid my eyebags, though after a few so-called eye treatments, still the same leh... but i still go cos it's very relaxing, hehe! U can ask them not to do extraction (squeeze pimples) and use water-based products instead of oil-based which may clog pores, better still use hypoallergenic products if u're scared your skin may be sensitive!

hello ladies, I'm also a Nov 2003 bride.. have been lurking around the forum looking for advice on banquet etc but just recently stumbled upon this thread. Basically booked all the stuff already but thought it would be fun to share the joy of preparing the wedding with people who are going through the same thing at around the same time. Ja yoroshiku ne!

 

[abrinas]

Wah, Privileged, Trinity and myself all Punggolians. So good!!

Where r yr blocks? mine is 642B or C, cannot remember.

I've just got my letter from HDB that my keys will be ready soon and they are asking us regarding the mortgage loan. Hv both Privileged & Trinity got their keys already?? My ETC is Dec 03 and they are now telling me flat is ready, 1 year earlier. Don't know how liao? Only getting my marriage cert in June next year when I do my church wedding.

[sparrow]

nitgal: hello to you! we did think of hiring professional photographer here in australia for our church wedding, but it is so expensive. we also got very tight budget. bo pian... have to ask relatives to take photo lor.

i was considering merchant court too, but couldn't fill the minimum no. of tables.

church wedding 5 july (australia)
wedding dinner 10 july (singapore)

LT: yep, i will be staying in australia after marriage. i'm currently still studying in australia. it's quite likely i will not return to singapore until 4 days before the wedding dinner!so everything have to plan long distance!!

Abrinas, hi, fellow 'Punggolian'

. I'm at 187. Not quite ready yet when I went down to take a look. Anyway, ECD is end March 03, which was one of the many factors that led us to choose this contract. We too will only get our cert at the end of June on our wedding day.
But we are going to defer key collection until early May coz my Fiance is in the States until mid-April. We prepared the letter already (with both our signatures).

 

[amore]

cher and akira... Meow and Sunnyling have helped to compile our particulars... maybe u can send them ur info so they can update the list and send to all of us.... info like real name, DOB, email, ROM date, customary date, dinner venue, bridal, future residence... hope i did not miss out anything!

hehee the grp is getting bigger and bigger leh... hehee... must be fun!!!

Hi Peabrain72,

Hey, we got the same wedding day (next year 3/5), mine is at Swissotel Raffles. Have not confirm my bridal package yet. Now sourcing, must confirm by next week no time liao.

 

[pooh]

Hi abrinas,
dun worry too much yet. I think the letter saying that u get ur keys soon might not be really soon.

My new neig told me she receive the letter saying will get keys half a year before the actually get her keys.

BTW, if u dun wan to collect the keys earlier can defer.

Hi gals,
i have a suggestion. Should we include our wedding date too?

meow, you've got mail.

 

[jan2003]

Hi all,

Welcome peabrain and cat to our little discussion corner!

Shook: $1,000 is for both phone calls and sms. pausini is right, each sms is $0.57 and only limited to so little words so end up many sms. then of cos when call, i will sa jiao a bit and then before we know it, time accumulated and cost a bomb lor.

terrible. this trip, i told him we must cut down teleconversation to save money. now very tight especially if i will be flying up to meet him. already before that very tight budget, now even more tight. sigh.

pausini: u bet i make full use of all the words!

but the guys they don't really like to sms. sometimes he only sms me back 2 words!!!! that really hurts our pocket. he said rather talk, fingers not nimble to sms. terrible urghhh....

May: check my email account already. thanks for the info. will check out and work out the sums but how the JR rail pass like very expensive. i only going for about a week and don't think i will be able to travel to Nagano,that's where the place you recommended us is in right? i work out the pass seems to cost $425? did i count wrongly? so you like japan too? it's my favourite place too! usually i only go to Tokyo. been to sapporo and osaka once. beautiful too.

Sue: sorry, me not very techno savy. what's ICQ? is it cheaper? yah, agree, absence does make the heart grow fonder. we hardly argue when he is overseas! haha! agree with may if can go for halther neck and you like it then go for it but have to point out something. realise if you wear halther neck, some of these halther designs means you cannot wear necklace? any issue? especially if your mum or MIL is going to get you a necklace and expect you to wear it?

 

[bobomagic]

Hi Enya
That's the problem...dun know which one to take...i think i can be quite chin chai...as long as they dun make my photos turn out like ching chong cheena. I cannot take gym membership...the last time i took a 3 mths package, i only went one...so wasted. I will stick to playing outdoor games, netball, squash, tennis n do some matwork at home. But i think if u go gym, surely see results fast cos they got personal trainers there to help u work toward ur goal! I also scared facials esp squeezing ones...rather squeeze myself but like wat Naturally said ...maybe get eye treatment instead. Dun wanna look like the panda that i am alreadi on my wedding day. Maybe abt 3 mths be4 wedding then go for facials?

Hi Naturally
Thanks in advance. My email is [email protected] very creative ah. yah, my friend somemore got e-invite with a whole sailing theme, quite punny...heehee.

[cherubies]

Hi LT,
well, hope u will be able to get your design soon.
now busy with reno?
my turn will be next... shopping for electrical stuff, renovators. =0)

Hi nite gal,
I booked with Kriston. They are the most affordable from the list of official caterers from Chijmes. church program can get from church. It's true that before you know it, july would be here.

i started with the guests list [at least for mine and my FH]. then we will "force" our parents for theirs. next would be the gown, flowers bouquets, deco for church, speaking to the helpers [identified but not approached yet]. so we sure have alot of things to do..

thanks for collating the list...

hi sparrow,
welcome. =0) don't worry i'm sure relatives can take shots that sometimes turn out very pro too.
wow... so u r planning from long distance. get a friend who can help you like the wedding coordinator [i got my sis to help me].

ok.. so much for now.
have a good weekend....

 

[joyful]

Hi ladies,

Long time haven't been in here.

Dolphie, thanks for starting the list.

Abrinas,
Dun worry lah....can always collect keys first and then ask for deferrment to produce ROM cert. As long as you have proof that your wedding's going to take place in June. I collected my keys in Sept too and will get my church to help write the letter with proof of church booking.
