(2004) Brides of year 2004

[littlepig]

Hi bellbell,

My MUA is JOEY, I met her during my gown selection. she is quite friendly and looks like 'O shing xian' (TV8 celebrity).

Actually, they are only 2 photograhers in Z-wedding. i heard that Ah Tat is good in indoor, but Ah soon is better in outdoor.

for your reference.

 

[kokchien]

Hi Fantasy,
Heh, the spa and facial is actually opened by the bridal shop, specially for their customers only...indeed i also like the feeling of getting massaged, scrubbed, etc...=P

 

[stardus]

hey..
the meetup not for Nov brides right? across the whole forum huh? any details of the meetup to share?

 

[fantasy]

Hey fern, understand... their cultures are afterall very differnt from us... think most singaporean gals very spoilt... hee... we just splurge like nobody's business for our wedding

My PS photographer is Robin... not pushy at all... we only top up additional 2 pix and he has no problem with that... for your reference

 

[fantasy]

Hi bow_wow, your BS really clever huh... to link bridal service with beauty treatments. Esp good for those who do not have a regular beautician

I love the feeling of massage most.

 

[fern]

Sorry Bow wow, that message sometimes pops up when too many ppl access it at the same time. When we first set and gave the address to friends, they all went look at the same time and it jammed up. The problem was solved after traffic slowed down. Yesterday after i posted my website here, there was a jump of hits from 400+ to 500+!!
So sorry, hope that you can view it again some time later, and pls give me your comments okie! Thanks a lot!

 

[kokchien]

Hi Fantasy,
Yea, think they very clever!

Hi Fern,
Sure, I'll try every day..haha...^_^

 

[brambles]

baobao, u did urs at mary chia, did u say? is it good? n same? cost $200?

my PS most prob in July, so now gotta start taking extra care of myself

 

[brambles]

HP, can share which ID did u finally choose in the end ah?

 

[polosportjg]

Hi morning ladies,

yep littlepig sort of complicated. Pualson is very helpful.. Not sure the next visit, when Helen is around (Anna say will inform her) whether Paulson will be 'angry'? For my case, I need the car, maybe can forgo the big potrait. Not sure can exchange for wat other items too.....think when I sleep also keep running through all these on my mind.

me on MC till sat. sigh! lost my voice, flu, throat hurts everything....so u gals meeting up this Sat??? maybe next gathering I join k?

think the next trip down to TJ Pagar will be 3 weekends from now with my FH. Think will dropby Z wedding, Julia Wedding News take a closer look at their gowns, let my FH see their photography skills.

A bit worried, if I step into the shop a second time, duno whether will they not happy if I didn't sign & say go hm think over it???
Any experience ladies???

Is only when signed the package, gown selection is on another day right??
Can bring camera there to take meh?
Go hm think think then next day come back & confirm gowns is it?

 

[nnyl]

morning!!

it's fri, yippee...

Bebe
I bought mine at Lee Hwa, given discount, think 40% (?, can't remember) discount- diamond items only for my ring, none for hubby as his is plain one, total $1.2K. What chubbyrain say is true abt white gold, cos white gold is 'plated', base is still yellow gold. It's not easy to find a pair both of u like, remembered searching for mths. u still hv some time, look around more.

hi c0co/yvonne/chubbyrain
next wed group outing seem big hur.. hmm.. where to makan? shall we try n find something healthy? hehe.. must maintain, not going to overeat.

 

[seabreeze]

think nov brides only lor ... otherwise very 'messy' ar ...

me can't make it for 17 april that coffee session ler ... cos me working that morning then some frens coming over to my place that day ...

u gals prefer weekday or weekend??

 

[fern]

Hi Fantasy, I like your gown, very nice. So which BS is that? Your package price also includes the actual day shots?
I'm so envious....but then my hubby and i already came to a compromise, just go for the essentials. Actually i got one friend huh...she also spent more than $6k for her BS package and we saw the photos not very nice leh...better not say which BS...don't want to get into trouble ....

Bow wow, you got photos? Want to see yours too.

 

[polosportjg]

Hi Bellbell,

so when did u signed up the package with Z wedding?
Care to share your package details with me?

Ty

 

[stardus]

Hi all,

if wanna meet up for nov brides only, why don't we organise one? Shall we fix a date on weekday? cos I think weekend, we have alot of other commitments that need to be carry out with FH, e.g. see to reno, do housework, visit BS, etc.

what do u all think?

[seabreeze]

how abt 23 nov (fri)??

 

[cawaii]

hi fairymoss/fantasy,
yap looking at their beauty rest series, cant remember the model name. the back care series too hard for us aso. but understand from the sales person that you have to flip mattress so as to distribute the pressure on the coil.
actually, price difference between those two are abt the same. guess will go try again and see which i prefer.

fantasy,
u sure koe how to relax.. facial every 10 days and spa every 2 weeks. do let me koe if u find any lobang for spa, me aso intending to go body scrub every 2 weeks. then skin will look more radiant and smoother.

hi fern,
so u will be moving to australia after wedding?

 

[seren_ade]

Hi Ladies...

23 Nov I can't.. else whoever can u may go ahead..

 

[girlfriend]

Cawaii

We didnt get to take the sample prints home. We have to choose on the spot. Anyway I quarrelled with the photo studio over the sample prints. DUn wish to rake the old stuff, the thots of it make me boil!!!

Anyway we got Simmons beautyrest series from Robinsons. Havent tried on it yet.. can only sleep aft an chuang.. So far I haf heard positive feedback on both simmons & sealy. In the end, we got simmons coz of the good d/c from robinsons.

 

[chubbyrain]

[fern]

Yes lor...my hubby working in Singapore at the moment. He wants to go back...I'm very sad to leave my family and friends here...but no choice...must follow hubby. Now we're in the midst of preparing for banquet in June and also in the midst of doing immigrations stuff. Can feel very overwhelmed at times. Sometimes i become a bit pek chek (also feel sad about leaving family), then will pull a long face leh...but Luckily my hubby is very understanding and supporting.

By the way girlfriend, can i also see your pic huh? Saw very good reviews about your pics too! My email address again:
[email protected]

[onee]

[brambles]

[piglets]

Me when to amara at tanjong pagar... But be firm don't sign up any package wif them cos they will kip talking and talking... Call and check with them to see the promotion still on than make a reservation than go down

 

[blueberry]

Coco, Ivory,

I am addicted to Nissen tom yum ones... Dun like the chicken one.. coz everytime burp got that nasty smell...
Me into Tung yee ones.. texture different from maggie ones...

Chubbyrain,

Ok. promise not to eat that much.. only when I can't find food
The noodles seems interesting.. sound like the ramen type..
Actually they contain a lot of MSG and can cause water retention..
You must be a noodle person more than a rice person?

Bebe,

Platimun rings are the most expensive.. But Gold heart got a good range of wedding rings.. Me dun like platimum, find it heavy..

Nickel,

Enjoy your break

and your cake searching too

I also did not sign up my package on my 1st visit. told them we have think abt it, the BS was ok with it. they are still as friendly when we went up the second time. well, this may also differ for different BS.

Yah, gown selection is normally not on the day u signed the package. My BS allowed us to take pics bec it will be easier for us to make comparison between the gowns, can also go home and think and look at the pics before making a decision. I think not all allow u to do this..

do let me know what time are u all meeting on 3 may bec i have body treatment on that day at 6pm.

 

[hakida]

brambles,
sorry,should be alternate mths instead of weeks.
i sign up with the pkg.5 times for 1k,with my own beautician.the results is really good that i can't resist not to sign up the pkg.
piglets,
how come 65 bucks only,so cheap.

 

[c0co]

hi gals... hehe...

agnes gal.. for a min i was thinking... when i so good life go BKK? hehe... soon... shall bug him...
A galfriend of mine went bali for honeymoon last year... wah... damn cheap... whole trip only costed 1200! hehehe... very tempted but last year was the sars cum war period so much cheaper... but she went for second honey moon a year later in US coz husband was posted to US for a while... so not too bad... i say she is damn good a wife... she is thrifty... hehe..

Chubbyrain... soup restaurant sounds great...yummy white chicken...
was thinking Sushi tei/genki as well...

if u guys dun mind walking, can consider

-Paragon : MY MUM'S CUISINE(quite yummy local food... not too expensive also)
-Paragon: Din Tai Fung( be warned... long q... hehe)

But overall i think SOUP rest quite value for money... anyone tried yet?


Lynn... dun worry... the gals here wont mind healthy food... we are going to be beautiful brides in OCT... hehe...

Nickel... congrats. So bring your FH down to patissier too? hehe... make him excited about the cake too... should be below your budget!!! Yeah..

yvonne gal... hows your day so far? BUSY BUSY BUSY?
TGIF!!!!!!!! hehe

Bebe... on your wedding band, can try soo kee or fairy inc (quite a nice place and is at Delphi orchard)My band only 400 plus. My FH happy man... can custom-make the design u like... with or without diamond, matt/shiny finish, simple/complicated etc... can check it out if u cant find something u like elsewhere.

 

[brambles]

hayashi, i see. i thot if alternate weeks, den my hubby will surely faint if he knows of it

wat does the process entail and hows the effect like after that? n is it the same like microdermabrasion? sorry for the whole string of qns

 

[polosportjg]

Hi Peg76,

thks for the info. So where are you going for your body treatment? Suppose to go gym to get rid off some fats &amp; tone....But a bit lazy, end up think went once in a month instead of once a week. HA HA! end up , I have signed up a spa, slimming package end of March. Till now hven't gone once......due to gathering info for BS...discussing renov with my designer....
Now best, fell sick, think I lost some weight. he he!

3rd May seems fine with me. wat time gals ? around city area or?

 

[oinkoink]

hi all!

me also a sept bride..and new in this forum...me thinking of a garden wedding...any good place to recommend?

 

[blueberry]

Coco,

You custom made your ring??
I was intending to custom made one for my hubby to look like mine.. dun know if prices at Fairy Inc is expensive.

 

[hakida]

brambles,

i dun know how to explain to u.i think piglets is better at explaining.
ur face will become very smooth and radiant after the peel,that's why must be very consistent in the treatment

 

[peg76]

Janet
I am with Body Wellness. So far so good.

U better take care.

I would prefer city area...

 

[oceans]

Wow Voice, got Bird nest?? Kekeee... Must take care and "bu".

I was also on MC for abt 2 wks... So that why felt that me old liao!

Poshies, dun think i can make it on 1st may cos holiday is usu family day!!

 

[eternity]

wow, so many postings to read... heehee...

okie, so quite a few people onzzz liao for 8th may.... so excited !!! okie, we set to meet town area... think more central for everyone... say meet at 12pm?? as for the venue, i go think think or see if i haf any lobang and most importantly can let us sit sit sit, and chat chat chat !!!

lala,
i've created another album call "personal".. so u juz go to "Photos", then choose the folder "personal" and then "add pictures"... or you can create another album inside "personal" and name it maybe under your name and then add pictures in YOUR folder... it's quite easy... let me know if you need any help...


gintonic,
so u decided to take "time-off" and meet us huh... goodz lah, can meet and chat... well, at least i can recognise u can u can recognise me.... heehee...

actually all of you should be able to recognise me lah... my 1st fiiting pictures posted in the yahoo group liao...

but hor, i was thinking.. maybe put photos liao we oso cannot recognise each other, unless we print out the pictures and compare with those people around us... hahaha...

 

[eternity]

adeline,
u look great on your ROM...

skylar,
i'm going for facial today and next thursday (22nd)... have yet to book for the following week....


annie,
if you going next thursday, we can meet up lor... then can chat again... heehee... let me know again, okie?


oinkoink,
welcome to this forum... tell us more about yourself and about your wedding... so when's your AD? and which bridal studio are you with?

haven't book reception venue ah? a bit late liao, must quick quick...

garden theme ah, u looking at hotel of those "outside" venue?? i remember seeing some pictures of hotels with garden theme, but cannot remember which ones... must go back and flip through the wedding mags again...

another place you can consider is the botanic garden, but rental not exactly very cheap... fort canning will probably be cheaper in terms of rental but may not be as garden-like as botanic garden... or maybe can try alkaff mansion, saw pictures in wedding mag before... looks good leh...

 

[_snow]
