(2004) Brides of year 2004

[cubby]

hi fairymoss & Bread,

actually initially i also wan PS in march leh!...but hor...i decided to brought forward ard 1-2 mths, means say ard jan or feb...the reason is 3 mths prior to our wedding...we will be very involved in banquet details...like food tasting, and other negotiation like decor and other perks... moreover, this is the time wher u got to start preparing for guo da li...like what parents wan...source for info for cheap stuff etc.. so tats the reasons i wan PS to be slightly earlier....
hmm...but not so early like this dec leh... both of us are not teachers. the BS wan us to take in dec becos jan their shop will be close for 3 weeks...so they say better to be earlier....so jus in case..so we can vie wour album earlier...etc...

but hor...i wan more time to be mei mei like fairymoss say .leh...just started my 'construction' leh hehe... will try to drag abit see can anot...

 

[jamci]

CC2, i chose kelvin

Meijia, yew kwang had increased his prices liao. Last time when i book him, it was only $500 but now $620. You better book him fast cos he is getting very popular.

 

[meijia]

Hi CC2,

Thanks for the website. His skill is good. Although I have book my AD photographer but still have room for changes if his rate is reasonable.

Can't find the person in charge of my banquet so other thing also can't confirm change yet...haiz..

 

[jamci]

meijia, your AD photograper is who?

 

[poshies]

Hi blue lake,
well actually is chosing the shade of purple that my designer had pick for me... tomorrow is the dateline, still haven't decide....

Smurfy,
good for you to have free tasting. mine still required to pay 50% *sign*

To all,
Guess, it is good to find out who can attend and who not, before sending out the invitation, then follow by a mail/call/sms. Also 2 weeks before the reply all guest to reply the rsvp.

btw where are you all plan for honeymoon??

Hi gals,

Glad to see that this thread is active again...

Me have gone for my gown selection too, but will only have my PS in Dec. Can't wait to see my gown in end Nov...

So u gals have choosen ur AD photographer liao ah? I haven't yet. Nobody in mind actually. Any advice???

 

[onee]

Hi Gals,

Cubby : We've enventually decided to still ROM in the premise, less hassle since we are o busy with work.Will still be inviting friends for lunch, just that they cannot go in to witness the solemnisation lor.

Julie & Bread : Congrats and welcome to this thread. My ROM on 13 Dec 2003 , wedding on 20 Jun 2003.

Julie : Communicate your concern with your bridal shop, I'm sure there'll be a compromise for your wedding prep and that should be the way, anyway

Girlfriend : Thanks, your "to bring list" is handy. Will remember to bring when called for fitting.

Sneaky : Nice pics, thanks for sharing. Will share when my turn comes.

Update about my prep...
WB : Ordered, waiting for collection
Gown : Designed, waiting for fitting
Shoes :SEARCHING
ROM Lunch : SEARCHING
ROM flowers : NOT ORDERED
Beauty Regime :
Facial with my regular beautician.
Mani & Pedi : SEARCHING

That should be all, at least for upcoming ROM : )

 

[cc2]

Hi binbin,

Me thinking of going to sentosa and maybe Changi beach lor!

U have any good recommendation? Me having PS in 1.5 weeks time.

Hi hi shinchan,

This thread was "dead" for a couple of months

 

[chillipadi]

Hi ANGELINE
What do you like about Flamingo that made you signed up? How many trips you went down before you decided?

 

[smurfy]

Hi poshies,

I need to pay 50% initially too. Lucky for me that I got the food tasting free now. But if I don' get a free round of food tasting, I might not go for food tasting at all. My sis said don't waste such money. Usually food serve during tasting and actual day got different standards, so no point.. But sometimes we think that its once in a lifetime thing, everything got to be perfect, better be safe than sorry, right

As for honeymoon, I thinking of asking all gals here too. Me and FH had maldives in mind but think its peak period in Feb and rates are not out yet, so got to wait till Nov/Dec before deciding. How abt you?

Hi Odie,
I will be promoted to Ah soh status one day earlier than u on 7 Feb 04.

 

[julieg]

Hi Girlfriend,

ya i am a teacher and my hubby is an engineer...think will plan to have the PS in late Feb...at least got time to develop and den choose the pics and all cuz by late April will start to be very busy with the Guo Da Li and as I would also be holding one more reception in Msia is abit too much for me...Dec is too early and my BS def cant come up with the gown cuz mine also MTM....will see how lor...will call them next week cuz should be more free as it's PSLE marking no need to crack head for lesson plan den can call my designer staightaway.

Dear Sneaky,

so far am enjoying myself ...

Dear bread,

ya both our wedding falls on the same day..actually i am pretty excited except that I still have to have house warming end of the year in Dec..hai....

Dear Oneeu,
Congrats to u too...guess u muz be real excited...will contact the BS again...next week will be a good week for me cuz can do more things when there is no need for too much lesson planning...hehehhe

Julie

 

[sneaky]

oneeu,
congrats and thanks for the compliments. pls do update us once you've gotten the pics....would love to see them.

Julie,
glad to hear you're enjoying....keep it up!

 

[peko]

Hi....

ya... it has been quite quiet recently. probably its becos the dates are still far away. hee....
when is your wedding date??? and where you book your banquet??? how abt bridal??? i am with pan pacific and my wedding date is on 13/11/04....
i am still searching for bridal.

 

[cyn]

hi yoyo.. u are most welcome to join the thread... urs 3rd jan.. think there's a few on the same day.. cant remember who... good day huh? mine jus few days after urs.. on the 7th... jus had my PS few weeks ago... how's ur preparation?

 

[shinchan]

Me thinking of Changi Park, have seen a couple who have it there, seem nice... If lucky enuf, can catch a plane in the pics as well. after which, can go over to Changi beach for some water scenery...

However, Labador Park seems gd as well. stonger & bigger waves, thus nicer effect. My bridal photographer seem to like that location...

Will decide on that day itself, depends how much time we have left lor..

Binbin, so howz ur kick-boxing classes coming abt? Any weight lose??

 

[bonjon]

yoyo,

[yoyo]

[angelinetan]

Hi LittleChilliPadi,

Wow, a really long name...heehee.I went down twice with my friends and FH separately.Actually i have gone hunting BS with my friends to a few bridal shops such as J&C,Jawn happy,Dang and etc.End up, shortlist Jawn Happy n Flamingo. My FH prefer Flamingo, they have really those sweet gowns. Shirley is has super memory and gd service. She just let me tried on a lot of beautiful gowns and patiently explain the detail to me.

If u r interested, u shld go dwn to see urself.
