(2005) Brides of year 2005

Rosalind,

maybe I will do that. Anyway J&M having a show @ Grand Park Royal (I think) this weekend, so may go and see.

U mean u friend using Linn too or another photographer?

Freebies? Hmm dunno what to get cos they don't do package. Their photography, make-up etc are all by those so called specialist....so nothing to "squeeze" out lah
 


me KPO a bit..

Kero : those low back ones can DIY by covering with white cloth and pining it up as well. but the shape will retain. low and round sort. I think Zoe's one the high back rattan chair. so can cover and look like the usual covered chairs we see in hotels...

Would you like those low and round shape chairs after covering up? Base on that, can decided if you can use Altivo's chairs.

Personally, i think the organza and ribbon may look better with low back, round chairs...plus with the rattan showing a little will blend more with the trees overhanging your head when you hold your solemnization.

If you are just buying organza to tie for the 6 chairs at the solemnisation table, i don't think will chalk to $80. For organza, it should cost on average $3.50/metre.
 
hey butter...

happy.gif
and save $$
 
Helo girls.

Helping poor Kero cos i met the same thing when my ROM. At that time, I have not join this FORUM.. So nobody to seek help.. Well, since we are all here... I help her lor. Maybe i too free liao..
Wa lau butter.. cannot la. I draw badly..

Hi Josie
Jin Long may not have very nice flowers. Thats why i settle only with the small cloth rose. As for spotlights, i search the whole place, either too ex or not nice..

Hi Butter
My ROM is held outdoor.. not at the ROM centre..
 
we have to do the chairs ourselves??....

josie jelly,

we went to bintan just to get away...relax relax only.....quite enjoyable.....esp the sea food there.....yum yum....
 
Hi butter
Alot of my friends all did it this way .. All held together on AD.. I got no choice as my flat is coming and HDB wan to see our cert within 3 months of the date we collect our keys...

Somemore, u have hundred of witnesses.. ahaha..
Husband cannot deny liao.. :P
 
hi josie
at first, i wanted to do it during my AD dinner... but my bf's father objected, saying that it will be very messy... had a big fight with my bf that time... told him that it's MY WEDDING, why should I listen to his father?
sigh...
sad.gif
 
Hi butter

sometimes things dun work out the way we want. We are marrying into another Family, not just ur bf or hubby. I learn this alot. I had a argument between my bf too about the ROM , then the house, same as u.. I told him.. that ITS MY ROM , and ITS MY HOUSE, what got to do with your mother? My MIL control the whole family's finance and everything la....Now she wanna control our wedding, therefore, i really cannot take it..Lucky Hubby stand at my side.. knowing its a girls' everything when its their wedding...

Then , realise he also very sandwiched.Nowadays, we actually discuss how to deal with his mum, cos he know her best. Whenever My hubby and I talk, we try to figure out what the outcomes, what words would come out of his mum's mouth.. what she would say.. Then we find the best way, to let my hubby talk, i just keep quiet..
Then nowadays, sometimes we just dun care, we book the hotel ourselves, the BS everything 1st, went back and my hubby will say, " MUM, i book everything liao.. etc.. " Ha ha.. Kind of unfilial but to avoid trouble..Lucky MIL no rake up a big fuss...

I saw a magazine.. " let hubby talk, we keep quiet.. MIL can forgive their sons in anything, but cannot forgive you..."
Well, i truly know this meaning..

Dun be upset, there is still long way to go...
 
butter ,

ops ...aiya i dunno still suggest this way ....me *cover mouth *
But can save money meh !

is like tht one once come to wedding ...hmm i was so angry when hubby mum suggest we have it in a resturant instead a hotel .
sad.gif
at least my hubby support me if not the quarrel will be bad ! in the end she gave way cos all the wile i veri good gal did not try to object anything ...
 
but we need to compromised a bit not to have the dinner at the high end hotel
happy.gif
cos my
PIL will help to pay for the dinner .

Actually we dun want to have Dinner ..but cos both of us are th eldest in the family ..no choice to do it :P .

I think there will be more argument come to it .So ladies we got to be cool when dealing with these thing ....if not very hard and stress on us . SO we need KANBAITAK ...JIAYOU !

This is the place we throw our sorrow hahaah !sorri to say these ladies :P
 
Thank you for your warm welcome, Yuuri. ;P How can you be the "newest" member with already 105 posts? Hee hee... My AD is 12 March... already saw at least 5 couples with AD on the same day? I've hardly done anything except visiting BS and restaurants for possible venues. Your AD is one week before mine? What about your preps? Cheers!
 
Haha zzee, not new to forum, but new to this thread mah :P
So have you settled ur BS and venues yet? And when is your ROM? Urs is a hot weekend date!!
 
everyone's seem to be talking about style wedding mag...issit worth buying? $8?

rosalind, chin leng is in charge of this site issit? heee you also had off-shoulder huh? got any pics to show me or not ... im looking for an off-shoulder design...can't get any out of my head
 
I am big problematic case... cos everything will be done in three days... 11 Mar will be ROM date, 12 Mar is the AD and 13 Mar will be second round of wedding celebrations. Not settled on BS and venues which is why I decided to join the threads for help and "support". Haha! ;P
 
Hello

So Judy - You mean it's from S$80 per bridesmaid dress? Where's that from? Could you provide the contact please like camelia HC's no? Oh - would they also be willing to do bridesmaid dresses without evening gowns?

Thanks for your help
happy.gif


BTW, I was walking around Far East Plaza on Sat. They have a few local designers who are able to do evening gowns and bridesmaid dresses which are nice and affordable too.
 
Wow Zzee,
Sounds like it will be very tiring! 3 days wedding! Is it coz' you have many many friends and family, that's why you opted for 2 days of celebrations?
So have you settled your PS yet?
 
We have family members and relatives in Malaysia, so need to pacifiy parents by holding banquet in M'sia. The last day of celebrations is for friends only. All 3 of very small scale, involving only close friends and relatives.

Not yet found the BS I want to go with... So PS not settled. I am still deciding between taking a package in Sin or M'sia.

What's your prep status?
 
Hi tare,

Yup, agree that guys are more practical. Maybe l will juz go with someone at reasonable rates but with gd skills. So, where u goin for honeymoon?
 
Things will be better if my bf stands by my side... but he just follows them blindly... coz he belongs to the "filial" category... whereas for me, I will answer back my parents if ever they are wrong...
My bf told me the other time, in future, even if his parents are in the wrong or what, I am not suppose to open my mouth and correct them... I have to agree with what they say... Crazy!
 
Hi zzee,

Welcome to this thread! Another Mar 12 bride...... wow... seems like this date is a real hot date........ 8)......

Have you shortlisted and make any tentative reservation with any restaurants yet? Better be fast since yours is a hot date....... if need help juz let us know yah?

Hi Yuuri,
Have you confirm your banquet yet?

Hi Rainbow,
Howz ur trial last friday? Send you an email this morning.
 
HA hA

Ya lor.. Josie, but u still gd. Ur PIL helping u. My PIL once heard we r getting married, next day told me on the car and said they dun have a single cents to help and ask me to go back to borrow from my parents.. Wa Lau..Pity my hubby.. he gave so much allowance to her bcos she said she will help him save LAO PO BEN.. Now is XUE BEN WU GUI...Hee Hee

But better still, we have our way in doing things
happy.gif
They dun really dare to interfere too much cos they are not helping us at all. Maybe thats why when we inform them everything are booked, they did not make a big fuss since its all our $$.. haha.. my MIL used to say she can bully her daughter in law since they are paying so much to "buy" a daughter back..Now she cannot BULLY me liao.... Yeah!!!!

But hor, we really save $ like mad lor.. Become stingy bcos of wedding and our renovation.. Really tough...Lucky still got abit of savings.. if not die...

So how did it go with BV?
 
Thanks Zoe! Really appreciate your time and efforts in helping me to think of decorating the chairs....i have nothing to offer to you except a virtual hug *hug hug*

Hi Hweiz, i have a friend who is also with golden Horse Award, Yishun branch. her ROM makeup artist was Nancy, it was well done, she look very different and nice!

aiyah, due to the influence of all the brides here, i also go and get a copy of style mag tsk tsk
happy.gif
i like the floral decor pictures in the mag done by Poppy. i like their way of doing things, been to their shop before, Linda is quite professional.

hey little_ger, i suddenly recalled that I have a classmate whose sister got married about two/three years ago. she did a gown with TY and the gown split on the AD, so they used pins to pin it up. but overall, i think TY is very good in what he is doing, just thought you can check the gown carefully when you collect it
happy.gif

zoe ,

My gal frez got her AD on a yatch .. she actually want something diff ...ended up she got veri bad sea sick and seem to have ruin the wedding ..poor gal sigh . But i was not there .cos she only invite her relative and her parent associate . Heard that some of her guests got sea sick !


jelly ,
Where else got sell ..the pretty flowers . Heard spotlight even more EX than jinglong ! My frez just go bangkok also tried to search for me also cannot find !
 
hehehe...switch topic to PIL liao.

me also have to stay with PIL after our AD next yr for abt a yr or 2. ...they also not helping to pay the wedding ...everything is our own money......so everything we decide....but the traditional "things" have to consult them first loh. like the "shu dou" which MIL say need to do....my mom n myself dun really want to one....troublesome....

my married frens all advise me to play deaf n mufe when ard with IL n when there is something we dun like to hear or see just act "blur"....n everything will be fine cos if we pick up a fight then our hubby will be the one "sandwich" in between.

cant imagine staying under the same roof...n have nothing in common topics to talk abt...n dunno if certain housework need to do anot....aiyo.....haiz....

but guess it will be 1 to 2 yrs for me....cos we will be looking for our own flat after our AD. initially MIL still say sell their current house n move in with us but lucky my hubby told her that we need "er renshi jie" prob when they old then move in with us loh....heng...she still agreeable.....

but overall they still nice lah....afterall they t my hubby's parents
 
initially we intend to have AD on cruise also...but scare some guests will have sea sick so we decided not too.....

Hee Hee.. we dun dare to offend my MIL by telling her we want "er ren shi jie" but we always drop hints.. hope she understand.. Until no choice, i got to get my hubby to tell her straight liao.. I know we abit bad la.. cos she simply no listen leh.. Scary..
