pierced - ur fotos so sweet.. ur huby so ti tie to do up the place.. hee.. wah.. ur condo the function room looks very big and the scenery outside like very nice.. hee.. so cool... =) envious.. hee
 


harlow josl,

oic.. i like thai silk. Very structured look. Otherwise I think shantung silk is gd too.. Dun need to go for expensive material. U know my purple CS is actually polyester? Got it at $15 fr Ppl's Park before renos

Harlow Starmoon,

Will fwd u later k? If i dun, please email me to remind me?
Oh, for the church march-in, the flower girl walks ahead of the Page boy. In my case, my flower girl is about 5+ & rather experienced, so with her walking ahead, she actually serves as a guide to the page boy. But i think urs might really need to hold hands leh... However she might still let go of his hand too?

The mum can instruct tt if she does a gd job by following instructions, she gets a lollipop?? Tt might do the trick?

hamstergal, hee...got fu qi xiang? mebe coz i see him so many yrs liao?? ohhya, the vows part was the hardest...trying not to laugh coz muz be serious.
 
Starmoon - Ya, for us, we really dunno how to please the folks. Get cheap 1 will also kena, expensive one will also kena. Anyway, I hag care.

I think Raffles' stage is usually quite simple. Normally they have a more elaborate floral center piece and they just drape some fabric & that's is. If you want something more, maybe you can work with Linus and see what he can propose?

Haha... my hubby suggested putting sweets along the aisle, so that my flower gal will walk along the aisle, busy picking up sweets. haha...

finally weekend!!!
hehehe

hi JTan,
can start on wedding preps, yah? =)

hi jelly,
me going to IL's first then back to new home to change b4 going back to my parents' =)
 
hihi jelly!

So far, for most couples i know who do have their own houses. Their 1st stop is tea ceremony at groom's followed by their lovenest & the last stop is the bride's home for tea..
But is this a hard & fast rule? doubt so, if it isn't convenient to do it like the above, might as well go by the shortest route?? discuss with ur FH yah?

harlow mikmik..
I love the weekend! Just gone for my final fitting & it was an exhilarating experience to wear all the gowns all over. Esp since my PS was in Mar, it has really been a long lull period of not being able to wear my dream gowns.

<font color="aa00aa">Some updates</font>
I've had my final fitting yest evening &amp; only need to tighten my red EG. All the other gowns fit perfectly! My best fren accompanied me at the fitting to pick up how to help me bustle the gown, adjust where necessary &amp; tie whatever tt needs to be tied.

Oh do u gers rem my gold shoes I bought fr MKB @ BKK? The lovely ppl at Yvonne Creative think I shd have bought as many sizes to sell in S'pore! hhahah.. While I'm a shoe fetish, i dun have tt luggage space!

Back to the main topic, i also selected my tiara, accessories for both the WG &amp; EG. Love the range offered &amp; how well they matched the gowns. Felt truly like a princess.. I even got to choose the veil i liked, going to use the laced veil i had for PS.. Oh so exciting!!

It has been a while since I felt such levels of excitement. Hope this can help overcome or reduce the fears &amp; jitters tt the AD's exactly 1 week away!

I'm going to pick up my gowns &amp; the suits on Wed! yeahyeahyeah!

Hi all brides,
I just saw the sample signature card/guestbk from my BS.. actualy dont realy like leh.. not as wat i imagine leh..???? sian.. can u all post yr signature card pic here?? or email me let me have a look?? if cannot change.. duno how.. or hv to go n buy.. or make.. my email [email protected]
 
hey mikmik,
hehe... i meant next week. am still WORKG!!!
sad.gif
saw a bridal car today. looked ok only. not something i'd want lor. actually there was one which i really liked. but it was the shape of a wreath at the back. my BS designer said better dont lah. it's a wreath afterall. so there goes the only design i like so far.

really quite sian with the preps. today MIL said her older sister wanna do tea ceremony one week b4 our AD cos she cant make it on AD cos its 15th and she need to "pray". dunno what to say anymore.
 
Hi Esther

I love your outdoor shooting. I think you look very pretty and i admire i slim body and you seem tall as well. wow...
Thanks for sharing
 
J Tan - 15th need to pray?? Ash her to pray in the afternoon lah? Wa biang... But don't get this affect you lah. I think what you can do is to really just serve her tea 1 week before or after AD also can. I've heard of people serving tea to their elders after their AD too.
You cant possibly just go and do your hair and wear your tea dress to serve her tea just because she needs to pray right? Sigh, don't understd why old folks always got such funny things one. But she is really quite funny. Usually, those who cannot make it just dun get to be served tea lor. How can she ask your MIL to bring it forward just becoz of her. If she cannot make it to your wedding last min, then you got to change dd meh? Sigh...I just hope that we wont be like tt when we get old. I also got a few of such nonsense and I was hoping mad but think we just need to bear with it.

Janice - I think it's because yours is hot date leh. 18th Sept, think really hard. Sigh, too bad I'll be away on your wedding day, if not, if you really cannot find, I can part time lah, I learnt professional make up before. hehe...

Meh Meh - I cant feel your excitement man. Hey, you havent show us your lovely gown. Must take more pictures to show us, front, left, right, back, up, down... hehe... make sure you cover 360 degrees. hehe... U are the first in Sep right? Who is nxt ah? Am I? Mine is on the 10th
happy.gif
 
hi mehmeh,
that's lovely!!! oh wow!! one more week to your AD. you must be really really excited.

hi JTan,
oic. true, ur BS designer has a point there.....how about a "just married" sign at the back or a small posy of flowers?
had a frnd who did this really cool "xi" in silver and gold and stuck it to the back of the car ~ quite a retro look, i must say.

ohhhhhh.......what's your mil's take on her sister "request"?
 
hi mehmeh
thanks...think she wun let go lah cos her mummy told me she loves holding hands...kekeke...she always complain to her mummy that in her class when she wanna hold her classmate's hand, he dun want so her mummy tell her people dun wanna hold, then dun hold lor and she will say but i wanna hold...so i think wun be a problem
biggrin.gif


hi seval
will prob check wif linus again to see wad he propose lor...if not, we just make do wif wad he do for us lor. pretty nice chap!

hi jelly
yah yah, can cut into singles liao....kekeke...

hi jtan
dun fret...juz remember itz yr wedding and u can't please everyone lor...i agree wif wad seval says lor...can't she go pray after she finished taking the tea?? pray oso not pray whole morning mah....she can always go after lor...

hi mikmik
when u getting yr pics? excited?
 
Starmoon - I'm working with Woodsville. Went down to the place today to discuss with Cecilia in detail. She has done two mock ups for us but we were not satisfied, so this time, she asked us to go down so that eveything is there. We finalized on a dark theme, using red roses and lilies. Everything now ok, just hope it will turn out nice on the day. What color theme are you going for? You still have some time to work on your deco lah.
 
hi seval
me going for champagne and white theme...will be having champagne roses with white lilies. Actually our mock-up includes white eustomas with purple trimmings...as it doesnt blend in well, we decided to exclude that lor. prob will call linus and see wad he can do lor.
 
Hi girls,

Looking through the threads...

My hse was done up by a very responsible and hard working ID...most of my guest commented that it was very well designed and nicely done up. If you interested, can PM me for details =) Haha...I am a very demanding person, you see...because I am also a builder!!

Have anyone checked out any good videographer, since we r all Dec brides, wouldnt be suprised that he is booked..Hee... Like to hear your opinion. Thanks.
 
harlow seval,

I'm still trying to keep the modifications a suspense.. U will soon get to see yah? Prob soon after my AD, if my photography enthusiast friends happen to upload their pix quickly!
I think after me is Poochi on 4 Sept, followed by u.. haahaa. U excited? U shd be! Just 7 days after me leh.. U decided on ur bouquet &amp; car deco? Final fitting shd be this wk too..

U learnt pro MU before? So cool... I think it's a gd skill, can be of gd help &amp; if u really do happen to like tt as a career, u surely have an alternative so very quickly. Eh, do some for BTBs or those doing ROM, then can build up ur portfolio.. heeheee

Harlow Starmoon,

U're welcome! Ur niece is quite cute huh? heheh, gd lah, then u need not worry too much yah?

When I was a flower girl at my aunt's wedding 20 years ago, i was holding my cousin's hand too.. With my sister walking in front, i saw sthg fall out of her basket, i actually released my cousin's hand &amp; ran up to pick tt stuff which fell. And my cousin actually swiped his hands as though it was 'dirty'. *tsktsk*

Guess what! It was actually all recorded by the videographer..Aiyoh &amp; now my aunt still revels at how farnie i was

Hi Jtan,

Give u a hug! *Hug* (Hope it makes u feel better)
What does ur FH say of this too? I think he can always disagree rite? I have some relatives who wld be going overseas or working, so my parents &amp; those affected also agree tt just give them a miss lor..
 
Kat - you are so lucky. We wanted to look for Derrick Ong (recommended by pal) as my AD...but he told me that he is booked and worried that he cant make it back from KL on time for my AD. I feel that he is very responsible. So I believe he will do a good job.

Highness - can give me the contacts from capture moments...looking for videographer. Thanks a million!
 
hi mehmeh
hope everything wil be ok on da day lor...wow, it must be farnie watching it....wad a memorable one for u as well huh...

nitez nitez...me turning in liao...bery tired liao. sweet dreamz everyone...
 
hi guys!

seems like every1 is really getting excited now that the big day is drawing closer by the days????
happy.gif


I have been really caught up with the prep....almost 95% one woman show....peng san!
sad.gif

so or bak kak quite a bit, even SK II can't help....esp for the past 1-2weeks, max hrs of slp per nite 6hrs....sometimes even lesser....haiz....

me had major hiccup lor....2nd EG still cannot make it....i wanted a waist, they simply gave me a waist, but never took into consideration that the tailoring wud be done according to suit me....can't explain....can oni say that the EG was still a disappointment, and I can't really pin-point. Just find that I look ugly in it, and I really feel lousy, lack of confidence, and full of dread having to march into the ballroom in the EG....so in the end, forfeited the entire deposit....gave them my 2cents worth (but honestly, they couldn't care less lor)

oni ystday then managed to buy a replacement gown...now headache....need to find shoes....whatever I had for the fuschia EG and the custom-made hair piece, all now cannot use....

monday gonna finalise details on wedding favour (haha....up till now still haven't pick, coz no stk to view) and then have briefing with main coordinators of my JMs and XDs....whole of nest week likely out of town...so can't do much...
gona work on the car decor in the next few hrs when I wake up....feeling helpless, coz tried once at it, and dunno how to piece it together.....
sad.gif
any kind soul can teach me/ or got pix to share with me how to do??????
 
harlow WW,

U must jia you okie? We would always be here to cheer u on!
Do a bit of eye massage to help get rid of the dark eye rings (almost couldn't get what or bak kak was!)? Apparently starting to work fr the inside to the outside of the eye might help..

Where did u get the replacement gown? The seamstress u mentioned or? So what colour is it in.. Ah, u can sell off the shoes &amp; hairpiece?

For ur car deco, do u mean for the main bridal car or for the entourage cars? Make sure u have wires, u know the type which bundles up cables? They work veryvery well &amp; ought not to scratch the car. Probably should be able to find them at hardware stores &amp; they shd sell them in rolls.

Rule of the thumb, if it's the bridal car deco, bundle everything together to get an idea how it looks like before cutting off the wires. Maybe u can try google &amp; key in 'DIY flower bouquet steps' for some pictorial explaination on how to bundle? I wish i cld find time to help u too

Give u a hug *hug**hug*
 
Hi gals
