Morning Ladies,
A Warm Welcome to this thread, Eliz.
Hi skywolf,
Mmm.. so u and ur FH being long together ??
haha.. true.. true.. Americans got their American Dreams.. Singaporeans also have their Singaporean Dreams and cars are definitely one of them. I like cars but perhaps not at this moment. I think i am better off "parking" my $$ at other places at this moment.
No punt intended.
.. Maybe it will come after my life is more settled down, like the house and the wedding. For u, you finishing studies soon ?? Things will be better after. Endure and u will definitely pull thru and the silver linings will be there awaiting at the end of the rainbow.
U huh !! almost forgot abt my presence.. urr.. nope.. sorry.. my sexuality..
but it's really kinda funny for me to inside here exchanging pointers.
Need some getting used to.
For those ROM packages, i am not sure cos i din take them b4. I guess it all depends if u intend to use "professional" to tk pics for u or not. Cos frankly, the procedure the most tk abt 10-15 minutes. That's the amt of time for u to change ur status from "miss" to "mrs". Most of the other time is taking pics and pics and pics. After the ceremony, me went for a lunch together with my entourage. And again, it's pics and pics and pics. The gown wise, i think it's might be cheaper to get from outside, like Daniel Yam. It all depends how comfortable you are using ur own photographers or video crews and also what are ur plans after the ceremony. Budget is another consideration. For us then, we walked ard trying this and trying that for the gown for her, me suit and the hand bouquet. So it was pretty fun doin such sourcing around. Cos i dun think u want to look too flamboyant tat day. It's supposed to be a solemn affair.
Jus be natural and look elegant and nice tt day.
Hi Eliz,
Me ROM at 22 also.Mmm.. cos at that time, getting a flat takes 5-7 yrs.. so we thot of ROM first, apply for the flat, go 4 our studies, come back, work, and viola, the house is ready.. So alot of things to consider. But right now, it's more straight forward. It's never too early to plan but try not to get yourself too confused with all the BS and packages ard. Know what you want, and most importantly, never never be pressurised by hard-sell tactics. That's why i say u must know what u want. Be it in the gown.. or the pricing..
Wedding Planners give u a piece of mind for the preparation of the wedding.. I dun speak for others, but i find the sourcing ard for the banquet, the BS, the photographer, etc, are the fun part of getting married. That actual day itself basically will fly pass without u catching a breathe ( i have been e brudders for my pals' weddings ) At least right now, i am getting the buzz and "kick" from looking ard for the gown for her, the ballrooms, discussions.. it can also be a way to enhance the communication bet e 2 of u..
Another way of knowing each other more.
Dun fret too much. You got to start somewhere. For my case, i decide on the venue first. Looking ard for venues is pretty hassle. looking ard for hotels, their packages, their ballrooms.. shortlisting them.. Final decision, neg, .. sounds hassle ?? It is.. but pretty fun and is a definite break away from the usual routine of a Singapore lifestyle.
Sorry for intruding, but can i ask how long have u and ur FH know each other ??
Morning Starz,
Me too, me too.. They also dun bother to check my IC. Only whisper in their walkie that an "old uncle" is here for a visit.
Yup.. I am just able to fulfill the requirements. So that's abt the few places that i can meet. The min for Conrad is 20-25 tables max. Jus nice.
To people, the grass is always greener on the pther pastures, but to me, who is to say the grass is always greener on the other pastures till u r there. And once u r there, even if it's dried hay or wiltered grass, u still have to eat them cos u have crossed it.
Sorry.. silly joke there..
I am already prepared for the budget to blow. I think my parents will be hearing alot of my cries... Cries for help..
Ladies, I can't speak for all guys out there, but i believe they are all excited over their upcoming big day. Perhaps guys jus need a longer warming up time and may let u all feels like we bo-chap. But we do CARE.
