Thanks!! I'll be back on the 26th June.
Regarding getting used to married life (everyone is asking me that, do you all get the same questions too?), I'm still not getting used to staying with strangers as I'm now staying temporarily with my brother in law and his family. Good thing is they leave the house at around 10am in the morning and gets home around the same time. By the time they're back, I'll be in my own room. As for dinner, it is an expectation for us to go over to my PIL to have dinner. Because the house we're staying in now is really close to theirs. On Tuesday, I managed to entice husband to dine out and immediately he was questioned how come he didn't go back for dinner. Hmpf! Good thing of course, is that I didn't have to bother with cooking dinner as well as doing any house work (the brother's maid does all the washings for us). I'm afraid that after I move into my house later this year, I'll be so dependent and so lazy! LOL!!!

Hi Shirlynn,
wah your teadress materials sound interesting! I just went Arab St too and bought for my cocktail dress (I decided to save on Kua
). Black embroidered and beaded netting over white lining. Now must pysche elderly relatives slowllly or else that day they get shock! So many other nice materials there... ~drroool~ temptation for another maybe in full french lace but shouldn't. But very tempted!
Hi Wen, yeah the shoes big problem, the really high ones I need very ugly. After wedding I'd chuck aside unless wear with my ROM or cocktail dress length.

Hihi Pausini
U collect holy water for?? U a catholic?
Hihi May
So far the only meat I cook for my hubby is chicken. I usually cook veg, crab stick, scallop, tor fu,...
My mum taught me to brew chicken soup wif dates, winter melon, scallop. Use chicken drumstick. The last time I cook it, everyone, including my parents said it taste superb. The secret brew v v long hrs.
I find marriage live more tiring. Gotta allocate time for hsework, office work, parents (my mum calls me everyday), parent in law (more flexible I dun go when I m busy). Sometimes I feel I can't breathe.

pausini: i guess the good thing is i enjoyed cooking and hubby will help out. same, same...by the time i reach home is ard 7 pm and when i am done with cooking, it will be 8 pm. Having dinner at 8 pm is ok for us. Like last nite, we had dinner at 8.30 pm. By the time, we finished cleaning up it is already past 9 pm.
i also wash clothes on alternate days. thank god for the invention of washing machine. i just dump everything in it. u know what, i still not finished with washing all the clothes we wore on our honeymoon. massive washing this weekend. sometimes i use the dryer to speed things up.
we clean our hse every weekend. which my hubby does not understand. He mops the floor while i clean the two bathrooms. Clean bathroom everyday..siao...
luckily, my hubby helps out in the housework. he is the one that does the ironing - twice a week. i dunno how to iron...hee...
what i cook...simple meals...like last nite, i bake honey ribs, brocolli, potatos and carrots for dinner.
the nite before, i fried vegetables, egg and steam prawns.
only on sat, then i will brewed soup...coz take very long time. must cook three hours... hubby love my soup...but i just go to Eu Yan Sang and must the herb packet...buy black chicken and dump all in to cook for 3 hours. then the soup is yummy...u shld try ...not tasteless.

don't let wedding blues spoil your day!
like u said, its a rare opportunity ... such golden opportunities don't come knocking on your door twice, so it was a wise decision!
dun worry too much abt the wedding prep, things will somehow fall in place on the actual day itself. Just appoint a few good & reliable jie meis to help you out. start early, and delegate.

hi
yeah, 85 and another 5 KIV.
I'm holding my banquet at westin, not very many choices coz of the sheer size of my guest list.
sigh ... actually i'm very xian at the thot of 850 guests, half of which i dun even know!
expenses are terribly high with this volume too ... my wine alone already costs me almost $4k !!

Hi bonnie,
Yeap… Yeap
Agreed with 1027…
Things would more or less be done when it’s nearer the date…
I am also stressed at this moment…
Seems like umpteen things not completed…
But FH assured me that things are fine and the pace is not too bad…
Guess would have to rely on your jie-meis
They can offer their opinion and views in your selection of gowns, photos, music for montage, music for march-in etc etc
cheers

agree agree with jus
just get 1 or 2 close friends as jie mei to give constructive advise.
dun get a large gang of friends ... coz opinions differ and they will be giving many counter suggestions that will make the deicion-making process even more difficult for you.
jus, what are u stressing over?
i was stressed last week, when i was trying out so many different types of wine. One night, my monster and i drank up 3 bottles of red wine. Initially to taste, after that realised i didn;t have enough wine savers cork, so we forced ourselves to finish it.
Wah liew, we were damn high that night! I never drank so much before in a single night, but i thot it was good trainig for my hubster !!

Hihi Pausini
Hahaha I like dat. Go to Europe when we r old.
Brew soup wif charcoal definitely taste superb. I brewed soup over the gas stove for 4 hrs. U try adding dried scallop, oh yes 4got to mention dried abalone (muz soak both in water over the night) n dates. My mum said can put mushroom n ji zhi (the little red seeds gd 4 eyesight) or put in a packet of shi sheng (4 types of herbs) or liu wei (6 types of herbs). My mum said my SIL likes to add chicken cube but my parents find the taste v artificial.
U bet! My mum calls me everyday. Whenever I leave her hse, she will ask when I m going again. There wz once when I rushed home by bus, did hsework then rushed to her hse. She called 3 times I din pick up the call. When I reached home, she asked y I din ans her call. I told her I wouldn't b able to reach there (close to 9pm) by dat time if I ans her call. She asked if I taken my dinner. I said I can't even afford to take a sip of water. My dad reprimanded me 4 giving priorty to hse work over my health. I really feel v v tired. I can't breathe. Lucky my hubby helps wif hsework. I m still struggling. As I m planning 4 honeymoon now, gd excuse not to PIL n my parents' home. Of coz my mum still calls lar.
I have a direct bus to my office but the journey itself takes 1 hr. My hubby drives me to work. How abt u?
Hihi May
If I cook I oso finish cooking ard 8:30 to 9:00pm depending on wat time we leave office. My hubby doesn't help wif cooking but he cleans the kitchen after I cooked.
Wow, u need to wash laundry every alternate day. I do it once a wk. I separate white n color clothing. Sometimes accumulate until my hubby runs outta underwear
. No choice, my washing machine gives unbalance error when I put in too little laundry.
U can cook v well, so many interesting variations.

hi 1027,
u must be very excited!! mind to share how's it going? mine is still in july leh ... now only done 1st fitting
Continuing discussion abt starting a family. I read an article in marie claire, it said that women produce a limited number of eggs in her lifetime. Every month our body will release one, starting from the best one. That's one reason why it's better to have children before hitting 30, so the egg quality is still good. After mid-30, the possibility of having a child with down syndrome will be higher. Just fyi ...

Yah lor... but I think I will make it a point to get my SO to go back to my side once a week. And leave a day for dating. If not, like that, our marriage is going to sizzle out very soon. heh....
My house will only be ready at the end of this year. It'll be at Bukit Batok.
Pausini
No lar. Can't afford maids at the moment LOL! But hubby intends to employ a maid once we have kids though.

dear rhs: SURE! actually i'm all geared up & excited abt the photoshoot but there are so many things to do before the shoot! Plus the eye bags around my eyes ....
Actually this is my 2nd photoshoot. had my first in April. That was quite fun too!
yah, read abt that too. But i feel the need to have some freedom as a couple before being tied down with kids and all.... i kinda like the carefree life as a couple eg taking off for a holiday anytime etc. Plus the house is nice and new now .... somehow with kids you'll have toys all over the place etc.
family can wait lah ... i must have at least 2 years freedom before starting a family. Unless kenah honeymoon baby or something, than too bad lah.

Hi 1027,
Wah… drink so much…
Good training for the wedding night… hee hee
I m not stressed over the wine (hee hee, leaving that to my future FIL)
Just felt that a lot of things are not done yet…
e.g., cards (now more or less ok),
wedding favours (wanted to source for something extra for my guests, but on tight budget – in the end dropped the idea – convinced by my FH and photographer – not to waste unnecessarily… )
painting of his room (still have not started… moreover we all first-time painting)
bedsheet (got a set, but wanted to get a better one… see, me so fickle!)
photo selection (photos are out, but still haven’t really choose… )
etc etc…
although the bigger things are more or less done… these nitty-gritty things are driving me nuts!!!
How about yourself? How’s preparation?
Hi rhs,
Are you planning to start a family right after your wedding?
My FH wanted to start soon (say having a kid in the second year)
But I prefer to delay a little, coz no money!!!
Though I m aware of the risks involved… ; (

Oh, before I forget, congrats to Yve and Pris on their special days
hahaha, jus!
no no, no training for me.
i'm not going to drink on that night, and neither am i going to give a speech. will act as a demure quiet bride that night. hahahaha (like real!)
same same ... i will only start the family in the 2nd year of marriage. Money is #1 issue - having kids is a lifelong thing and no money = no milk powder & diapers!

Hi 1027,
I know that previously (few years back), brides are supposed to be demure…
But nowadays, brides also join in the fun!!!
So, we also must have fun on our wedding day, yea…
Agreed..
Having kids would be financially draining…
Hence, but save more or less there first before contemplating having a kid…
And also, must eat ‘bu’ things and ensure that our body is healthy first…

Heh.. I talked to my hubby already and he agreed. So now once a week I'll go back to my mum's for dinner and another day we will dine out, but not necessarily expensive food. Fine with me as long as I can have some alone time with my hubby.

Yah, I also think so. Heh.. he spoilt me rotten already in fact. LOL!

Hi Maya/cherubies
My friend using flash...so no way I can edit it cos I know nothing about that. Anyway, I've my draft ready liao and think it's looking great. the breaking news is a big issue...hope he will understand...
Wow, you ladies deliver cakes? I think if I have, I will go for cake vouchers. Actually, which one is cheaper?
Do you have any red wines? My family told me not necessary but I read forum as if it's a normal thing....

i went to a frd's dinner last night, 52 tables, very stressful at the sheer size of the ballroom. i am really impressed with 1027's 85 tables.
i agree that weddings are expensive events but the memories last quite long, somehow i feel its not complete without the dinner, just feel like something missing.....
soon this Oct'03 thread will become a family planning thread...heehee.....time really flies, we were just stressing over PS, now is table planning, actual day events, soon its when to have a baby.....

hi sleepy, ladies,
no choice lah, mom wanted the cakes, somemore wanted the cantonese traditional type which is more biscuits. THose shops no way got vouchers. Actually price for both cake or voucher shld be abt same. But not all shops have vouchers, so it limits your choice of shops. THose who have may not be the cheapest.
I'm opposite, I dun want wine, my mom say must have. I think someone got lobang for cheap wines. Can try asking price.
