As for photos, heard from frens that it might take up to 10 weeks; i msg him this morning till now no reply...so must wait and see...not too worried lah, just anxious, cos' both of them are quite popular and I trust their quality and service...i guess "man gong chu xi huo"

Hey pst,
Potluck is a great idea! if got 5 or 6 pax, i will get some yummy swiss rolls...
i think Saturdays is the best...but i am ok with weekdays and Sun though...just choose the date that everyone can be available...maybe we can start by eliminating the dates where we are not free??
Tentatively, for me all weekends till July are ok except 23rd Jul (co event). Weekdays are ok as well except for 1 evening next week...

zoeanne: i'm onz for that!!! but the thing is, each of us might have different orders, in terms of the weight for the piggy...would bulk orders make a lot of difference???

really? winter in singapore?? sounds good
my photographer said there are kelongs there and a rocky beach... but i dun think there are toilets... maybe got to change in the van/car
amylim,
according to teochew tradition, it is a must... in fact during GDL, the groom has to bring it over to the bride's house and kind of "show off" to her family
then during AD, bride has to wear it during tea ceremony

hamster gal, hardly see ur entries in Style Whielink Thread though =)
hi hi josl..
thks for sharing abt the cake vouchers from bengawan solo..indeed it's very convenient for everyone to pick up the cakes..just picked up a brochure from bengawan solo..will check out more from them & discuss out with both parents..heehee..
hi hi mehmeh..
hope ur FH is ok liao..as for the jia-zhuang..depends if ur parents are traditonal in the thinking (esp if they are easily influence by the relatives), if u dun want it to be, can indirectly tell them abt it, or hint to them nicely..
hi hi zoe..
actually it's gd that u r thinking of getting the biscults from JB, bcoz i think it's more cost-effective..indeed the teochew biscults seems to be more expensive than the cake..i think it's hard for us to decide esp when older folks prefer the traditional biscults instead of the cakes nowadays..

Hi Sherylannlee,
Rueben charges range from 650 to abt slightly over 1k depending on how complicated you wan the photos to be. I saw his works as my cousin also employed him as AD photographer, I can say his works are really fantastic. But for the 650 range, it'll be simply photographs, higher range includes montage etc.

I hope to make GDL as simple as possible... hehe... anyway, I'm letting my mum settle everything wif in-laws. I just do whatever they ask me to do.
Now that AD is approaching, getting stressed up already. Fretting over MCs, you gals got yours already?
Janice - Think shd start going facial but I'm not discpline, always too lazy, now my nose is invested with blackheads.

ok girls,
talk about facials and treatments i gotta share. i had old pimple scars on my back which i have been desperately trying to get rid off. saw a dermatologist but still no help for the old scars. finally went to this facial and they also do AHA back treatment. i started two and can visually see improvement.
the facial also quite good. and she doesnt hardsell. my fren just went for the first time last week. she scold me for not telling her abt this place earlier. ...
hey janice,
yah, i'm so excited. finally finished the first one. now gonna try and make a 2nd necklace and maybe earrings. =) so fun!

All these talk abt GDL is really confusing me boy, esp since we all fr various dialect grps! Alamak, let my sister who went thru 'baptism by fire' let me in on the details... Shall spare myself fr the agony of plannig sthg which is a formality.. MIL can't advise much, quite a simple person & FH is the only child & son, so she also has no experience
Hi MikMik
Sounds like the candles r cute! Post here to share pix leh..
Ice cubes in xi characters also.. Wah!!!
Hi Janice, Seval & Zoeanne
No harm going for facial, beautician shd do facial massage to help improve blood circulation & for brighter complexion. Can request not to squeeze the comedones to prevent inflammation which may lead to pimples. Sometimes in their eagerness to clear the face of comedones, they may overdo it..
I started my beauty regime since last Dec, and have def seen results. My complexion needs quite abit of help esp since my work is quite stressful, think it's becoz of my 1 mth sch holiday my skin condition improved! Phew...

Hi gals,
Maybe I can share my beauty tips here.. I have a fren who is a certified aromatherapist and he shared with me this simple recipe for DIYing Toning Facial Mask, the effect equivalent to applying SK__. I'm doing the facial mask at least 2 times per week, the whitening effect is obvious, and no side effect at all!
Here it goes,
Yogurt full cream free from fruits. A teaspoon or more to the face. Leave for 5 to 10 mins.

HI ladies...
It's been a while since I've posted here... How's everyone doing? My fiance and I went for our PS 2 days ago. A little early since our wedding is only in Nov, but we'll be busy from now till the end of the year, so decided to have it done sooner. It was a fun experience! Exhausting, but cool! Will be selecting our pics in about 10-14 days.
