[mei79]

pst,

iggy,
i was doing my DIY wedding album last night.. so fun leh! i develop almost 250 photos! one album not enough, gotta buy another album today.. and printing more photos for my mum, doing a smaller album for her...

Hi Cheery,
Yes, it's a KTV session ...
We shall go makan somewhere near Lucky Chinatown ... then go KTV ...
Cos K-Box ladies nite is on Thursday.
Waiver of cover charge for ladies ... only pays for drinks

 

[bottle]

Did you gals mean the wedding coordinator/chef will be around in the dining area during our food tasting? We can feedback to them while eating or wait till the end of the session then meet them?

Arrange a meeting cum makan session for jiemeis and xiongdis at the same time? Anything for them to discuss and what's the purpose of the meeting? I thought only bride meets her jiemeis, and groom meets his xiongdis, not aware that need to organise the same meeting for them. Btw, any idea how much is the angbao for jiemeis and xiongdis? Quite hard to decide, scare if too little, not nice. *headache*

 

[joteohl]

hi iggy

hi mei
my dad postponed my intention to send deliver invite to relatives...my fateful day is on 7th and 8th May. where did u buy the album?

Hi all...Morning!

berry, you may want to try Marriot Hotel. They called me last week asking me if I'm still keen with 8 Jan cos the other couple cancelled their booking. However, I've already confirmed with another venue so I didn't take up Marriot too.

hey wendy,
saw your email last nite. but couldnt reply, hubby had to work on computer. both my WG & EG are MTM, likewise for men's suit. beading for both are yet to be up and length needs to be finalised after I get my shoes. btw, did you have photos to share or was it someone else?

 

[lovely2005]

Hi Cheery,

Ya, managed to confirm one on last sat. It's a contractor at Defu Lane not really an ID firm lor, thru recommendation one by hubby's cousin.

How is ur ID sourcing? Long time din see u ard.

 

[sierra]

kero: hehe actually i was jesting around...my hubby and frens were asking me to smile elegantly, not like a joker with the big laugh

For the EG, would be adding on beading...i trust my designer, so pretty much for him to add the details necessary

which BS are you with?

 

[zenith]

[caitlyn]

winnie - fei yue no longer has the online marriage prep course.. i just called them...

winnie, daphne + sk2 - i called fei yue.. their next course is in july.. $180/couple.. $70 rebate upon completion.. forgot to ask how many sessions.. hee.. i'll most likely be gg for marriage prep workshop at Lakeside Family Centre (located in JE.. very near our place, winnie).. it's $200/couple - 2 sessions (2july and 9 july -2:30pm - 8:30pm) and they have one couple session which the couple arranges with the social worker.. i'm signing up for this for 2 reasons: 1 is that it is very near my plc, 2nd is because i like the idea tt there is a couple session.. think it's impt tt the couple gets to be really honest with each other unlike when it's conduted in a big group..

highness - send us a pic of ursef in xchange for ours?! hahah

[blessing]

Hi Renee,
how much u pay for your reno?

 

[merryberrys]

actually the prep course is good... but i think both persons have to give and take after marriage..
not easy to maintain.. i move in with hb after ROM and we been quarrelling once every 2 days about living habits,wedding,$$$$,bills... we even quarrelled to 1 point that we want to divorce and call off the wedding... then he started to give in to me.. so i give in too..trying to learn to live together..not easy.. guess this is life...
not sure how the prep course can prepare both of u.. actually not easy to get married..buy house in SG.. costs a bomb...
