josl: when u sign the contract, everything will be minimum amt, ie: min 20 tables (for weekdays)and lowest priced menu. They explain that it's easier to 'upgrade' than 'downgrade', so they don't want us to commit ourselves to 30 tables or premium menu, then later change our minds but cannot coz contract oledi stated the higher amount. Good oso lah, coz I have not even start on my guest list, so have no idea exactly how many tables i need.

hi bearyhugs,

I think maybe u should tell him abt wat u think n look into.. u can ask him if the empire cut does not turn out nice how? can made any alterations or change? becoz i do have some worry for my WG, which he say that we can change the top part if it did not turn out nice.
Btw where is ur ROM? sounds fun n romantic leh.. poolside.... how i wish i can have a poolside dinner n everyone come with casual wear... only even bikini for ladies.. heehhehe
hi lynette,
have u shortlist any BS? It would be good if u had shortlist some BS based on the gown design, photos n even ur frend comments..
I choose my BS based on my frend comments..

So do you think I should really go for Chris Ling? He got a promotion, $1200 for 20 pieces, forgot how many Rs. Can be Chris Ling or Kelvin.
My actual intention is to engage the new fellow, John Lim in Chris Ling company. His AD is $1980 comes with a 30 pages album.
So add together will be $3180! Do you think I should really go for it? Very tempered leh. I think I know why my hubby agrees to it, he has always thought that an average market price for a BS is $10,000. So $3000 sounded very good for him.

Hi Dio
There is some thread on inlaw? I know it real scary. My parents and in law already met b4 our ROM. But i dun like them to meet up.. Dun know why..Last time my MIL complained to parents, over the dinner,about my hubby and me, being not listening to them about those pantang things. Its more like my parents are there to hear my MIL complained about their own daughter.Hee Hee...
I know my mum not very happy but she kept quiet the whole dinner than arguing back.In case, next time cannot face each other. My elder brother face almost turn black. My dad got to "apologise" if I did anything wrong in their house..
My parents went home and console me instead and ask me dun be sad, no matter what they still behind me... Wa lau.. I am so touch and almost cry.. My hubby also apologise to me..
Thats why i very scare when come to GDL, An Chuan.. We have not gotten a date too, waiting for the fengshui Shi Fu to come n see the house, as well as got the date from him.. Hope nothing goes wrong

wow! u are quite on with ur planning.. already meeting potential photographers for portfolio. think i should also shortlist some.
i'm still undecisive on the videographer. dunno whether this is unnecessary.. but my FH wants <font color="0077aa">stefine</font> for presentation at wedding dinner. have not really worked on our budget.. but it seems that costs will definitely overrun

rosalind: keke..i m not blur lah..just dun want to be so direct abt it mah..to tell u frankly, i wanted to call u last nite to find out more info leh after reading ur pm but paiseh leh..
hello ladies!! long time nvr participate in this forum liaoz... anyway today on mc
rosalind: hey i checked out style page 90 liaoz... i oso noticed this EG cos the cut is quite similar to what i hv in mind!
actually i've always wanted halters for my EG... thinking of gg for some dramatic colours like red!!
although i prefer all kinds of pink
tou: thanks for the link
btw wrist corsages for who har? the bride or the jie meis? anyway i think they all look v nice leh.. some machiam like real flowers. but can we go down and look at the actual thing har? maybe one of these days we can all go together hor
all: btw i had my first session w sil think 1 or 2 weeks back. anyway, minda actually suggested to incorporate colour into the WG... they hv this ruffled long trim (they only hv red, blue and apple-green).. she was saying if im adventurous enuff... can put 2 apple-green long trims at the train and for the back use those criss-cross lacing (oso in apple green). the closest i can find is on femalebride pg 150 but the trim is in gold. anyway im quite keen on this idea but my hubby dun think it's advisable cos he scared will 'cheapen' the whole look. so now me still considering whether to go for it or not.
rokko: hey, sil is participating in the female brides weddings by the waterfront event leh... on 10 oct... u gg? i've alr registered

Hi Minky
Really... so we have quite common taste hor... except... dun think will wear red lor. Mi not fair enough... think yr skin colour more suitable... u so fair...
Guess wat... mi went swimming the other day
and ended up now lots of tanlines... alamak... need more time to get rid of them liao...
Actually, my hubby was suggesting 'light blue' below the organza for my WG's back... but didn't really like the idea coz later WG dun look like WG liao... My impression of WG is really all white... like so holy and pure like that lor... dunno whether true or not lah... but my designer also said that some yrs back, pple like to add colours in their gowns, but recent yrs... not so popular liao... but of course, it's yr choice...
Hi Tou2
Ya lor... perhaps, we can go look @ the REAL thing... but all cost $4 or some more ex?

Hi ladies
Hi Minky, havent heard from you for so long
Was thinking of getting the corsages for the jiemeis. But I'm not sure if can see the actual thing, I will go ask the lady.
Anyone else interested? Then i can arrange for her to bring a few samples maybe.
Yep, also read from the mags that the trend now is to add abit of colors to the WG
Personally, I don't quite like it - prefer all white/cream
. But then, I'm a very boring person.
Maybe a few dashes of colour will really make your WG more unique though. Think that gold and apple green is nice but not red, unless you are very patriotic lar... hehe Just my two cents worth

Hi Jelly
That what i afraid lor. Scare MIL wan everything cos she pantang, Beside my SIL is a girl who listen to all pantang things and follow her mum. Then she is getting married soon.. a few months after us. Then MIL always compare us as a daughter always listen to her , a daughter in law and son who always oppose her pantang things.. Ai yo..
Guess, we have to see the list and buy whatever its necessary...& maybe i really consider my hubby's travel sewing kit..Ha Ha , to save $$
Like what u said, one ear in and one ear out.. as long as hubby stand by me...
