Hi starmoon,
i think juz the one or two bad tings that happen will really upset us on the wedding day, but think positive there is more pros then cons on the overall.

Hi mikmik and sierra,
wea are u ar...
 


hi bunnyger

can recommend you my photographer - Yew Kwang. He's good! we took him for our ROM.. and after seeing our ROM pics, we immediately signed him for our AD as well

hihi wendy

i m also doing my RSVP and sitting arrangements now.. big headache since parents dun wan to do RSVP.. scare of a low turn-out that day
sad.gif
not having montage & guest book... song lists, i have done it liao... just tell my hubby to burn into CDs.. another one is the AD schedule loh... my timing seem very tight and stretch all the way till 2 plus... scare on the day itself, got any delays... then confirm very late then reach hotel... when u going on leave?

hi stars

me dun have si dian jin leh... so cant advise when it is suppose to be brought over
 
jam / ting - my mum's thinking the same as yours, she felt that my hb should pay for the wedding dinner...

We did open a joint account to save for the wedding expenses, but haven't been contributing much coz I'm still paying for my own hse every mth.. We try to spilt the bills between 2 of us, but if I got no $$$, he will just pay.

harlow josl,

I think our starmoon has no more leave oredi leh.. I think lah
Sierra also has left for her HM too.. U 'aunty' oredi, cannot recall huh? oops! dun spank me k?

Hi Starmoon,

Wow, they had double-standards? Prob figure the experience of the part-time waiters/waitresses play a part? Anyway, maybe u wld like to call & apologise to the guests who are unhappy or short-changed.. Coz come CNY or even funerals, and if u're there, they prob will bring up this issue again (& again!)

So where u thinking abt the HM now?

Hellow Zoeanne,

U lucky ger.. Breakeven huh? Can save for a 2nd HM!
I think I'm going to do a Thank You card for Kim, postcard style, tt also features her CS tt she did for me.. So she can stick up on her wall. Thinking of going to make 2 more dresses with her, a bustier similar to my WG & a dusty rose chiffon halter.. Prob meet her when Josl goes down too..

harlow Wendy,
Dun fret over the seating arrangement. Just fix the ppl who are def turning up, like family members & ur close frens. These ppl shdn't fly aeroplane..
The rest have a high chance of MIA tt day, some even w/o informing, so it's up to u if u want/dun want to preserve the integrity of the tables. Some couples may decide to reduce 1 table & split everyone up, but tt means alot of headache.. I rather bear the cost than to feel awkward tt they aren't in the right company

So on the AD, just gotta be prepared for last min changes & be frustrated tt u gotta 're-do' the seating arrangement.. Gambatte!
 
Hi stars,

Saw your pictures... I liked the feel of 17 the best.

Hv u called Kim that u gg down with me a not??
 
hi escapegal,

i only tried 3 but did not like the other one so i will just recommend you these 2. i got from parker's. the contact is me leng and she is at 6535 3987.

$15 wine - Chilean wine (Cuatro Vientos Cabernet Sauvignon). this is supposely the sweet/fruity range of wine compared to others that are woody or peppery or wasabery.

$16 wine - Australian wine (William's Blend Carbenet Shiraz). i find that the taste is similar to the $15 wine.

in the end, we took the $15 wine cos its cheaper :p
 
caitlyn...hope u r ok... we can still mit up some other days...

hi josl
me oso gg for HM but next month lor, after hubby finished his reservist....so for now, no short getaway lah...cos only got 1.5 days leave left for the whole year after taking leave for HM and a friend's wedding in Dec. So cannot go for short getaway lor. but will be gg for a long HM...almost 3 weeks so ok lor...hehehe.

u think everyone like u and jtan huh ....addicted to SB forum liao....guess sierra prob busy and then fly off liao lor. kekekeke....haven heard from mikmik too....maybe she oso off for HM liao.

hi mehmeh
i guess so lor cos normally banquet they usually get part timers to help out so prob these aren't experienced enuff so dunno wadz the usual i guess. as for the calling part, prob not, cos mostly MIL's side relatives so pai seh lah...aniwae itz over liao so dun care lor. somemore food is nice and warm so no complaints lor (heard from colleagues and frenz) and they all had a great time except for some relatives and neighbours who might be big eaters so dun care lor....pai seh lah to call them....aniwae, guess MIL prob apologised to them liao when they complained abt it so we'll just put it behind us.
 
morning..

caitlyn & berry.. must rest well & recover soon ok. **sayang, sayang**



daphne, u meeting the lady earlier tonite?
 
hi ladies!!!

only manage to login to post stuff now....am rushing out to do some stuff before i fly off tonite...

wedding was ok...the day event went smoothly but the dinner coordination with the banquet staff was bad....they screwed up on our background music, and the first dish fan fare....the music just stopped when the waiters were serving our mooncakes! lucky the waiters were experienced enuff to remain calm....

hehehe...i oso had tummyache just before my 2nd march-in....rushed up to the room to poo :P took so long that everyone was asking where i was...hehehe...then my hubby told everyone that my tummy isn't too well....cannot sabo...hahaha escaped the saboing on stage...but still end up a bit high and drunk at the end of the dinner due to the various toasting...

k....i'll try to come back in the afternoon and read the rest of the postings above....

will definitely try to update u gals before i fly!!

morning gals.. feel better after a good rest last nite.. thanx for all ur concern.. *touched*

so yesterday's conversation was on $$.. hee. my fh and i have a joint acct.. every month i put all my pay (after deducting insurance and allowance for parents.. leaving not tt much) in it.. and he gives me some $$.. to be very honest, i think ipaying much more for the wedding.. coz he has alot of family committment.. imagine he gives his family 1K per month.. n he just started work..meaning he no $$ left liaoz.. sighz..

my parents also dunno tt i helping w the wedding expenses.. they believe guy side sld pay n say tt gal must learn to protect herself.. =) and my parents are considered young parents??? *scratch head*.. but they giving us a sum of $$ lah..

berry - wah.. u better go see doc.. now got dengue everywhere.. dun play play.. i also a bit headache and muscle ache everywhere..

highness - went for food tasting liaoz.. my tastebuds were a bit off.. the food just average only... =) but during the food tasting it's ike just one table in the fnction room.. so very private.. =) the prawns and chicken were very good.. the rest average.. definitely not as good as restaurant and all.. =)

amy + highness - my fren who got printer lobang says he charging 50 cents per pieve for postcard size.. but i not too sure wat kinda details to ask.. so u gals let me noe b4 i call him to get the final quote?? min is 100 pcs..i wun be getting i think.. someone on the m hotel thread has extra cards.. hee.. and i def wld need less than 100.. since my PG design liaoz, i gg to use as thank you cards..
 
caitlyn, must drink more water leh...
think quite a number of pp sick... my colleagues a few down with flu and i think the virus is spreading cos i've been sneezing since morning but hopefully don't catch a cold ah..... else, my dry swim is gone this fri... haha.... me gambler.

i also keen on the printer lobang leh..... maybe amy and highness and me can combine order and get cheaper quote? hee.....
 
daphne - me first dry swim already gone.. so sad hor.. hee.. or 30th sept can dry swim, but later in e nite after i send my paretns to airport since i'll have the car.. hahahah.. okie.. let me wait for the gals to give me the qns to ask the printer and i'll call..

ting - wah.. u oso.. take care take care.. is it virus can spread through forum ah?? hee.. my parents considered young lah.. i thnk.. at least tt's wat my frens say.. my mum is 48, dad is 50.. =)
 
daphne- wow, ur keychains v sweet n nice leh! hw much they cost u?

caitlyn- my parents abt the same as urs ah. my mum is 50, dad 51. u r 1 yr younger thn me rite?
 
how come got skl boy skl girl one? i was still complaining how come their designs only these 4.... show us that one leh....
janf, u like ah? ok, once my AD over, i give you some.... haha...
 
ting, i think i bought them at around 40c per pc with the packaging and sticker. But i save a bit cos i got a friend to bring the whole box (8kg) over when she went on biz trip.....
 
wah, all your parents so young ah..... i think my parent got married and had me late...... both already in their early 60s and no wonder they kept asking me to give them grandchildren soon...
 
ting - yuppers.. alot of ppl say my parents young.. in fact, they ask me not to marry so young.. wahaha..

daphne - wah.. good buy lorz.. mine i pd 40 cents per piece.. but not sticker and not so nicely packaged.. wat does ur sticker say? too small to see lehz.. tt's why now i thinking of customizing own stickers.. but darned exp.. hee.. i ask my fh take pics and show u.. i hope my memory din fail me.. hee
 
hehe daphne, thn u got to jia you jia you le!
wah nw i tempted to do the keychains leh! go bk n ask my fh 1st.. hee. u giving out durin ur BQ?
 
ting - the keychains very exp in s'pore.. selling around 1.50 the cheapest i think.. will u or anyone u noe gg bkk then can get cheaper.. hee.. ur restaurant no provide favours?
 
caitlyn, my sticker basically has my FH and my name and our AD only and some background designs like angel lah or borders....

ting, as caitly says, it's exp to get it in sg.... better to get them in bkk if you are going before your AD. but it takes at least 2 weeks to get it done lor..... but if you are going and u like my designs, i can give you the lady's email and u just email her directly.
 
daphne - do u noe if she just does stickers?? maybe cheaper to get her to do horz.. where's her shop located? i got fren working in bkk..
