Hi ladies,
I too have the same problem, have to take extra care with my long nails these days.
Hi Milderina,
I bought 2 pairs of shoes specially for the wedding. One silver and the other gold (to match my kua). Both are sandals with diamante on them.

hi i_bless_u,
yeah sort of lah. hahaha. we booked our flat last year, walk-in-selection from HDB. so we're the first owner of the flat. these flats (our estate is blks 683 - 686) were built in year 2000 I think. so as of this year, 5 years liaoz, on the resale market already.
but 5 years ago the HDB kee siaoz, sold the units here super expensive, so a lot of exec units not bought up at that time, so last year they WIS, we bought. now they having WIS for JW again. 2 days ago, I kaypoh, went to check the hdb wis website, to see how many people bought the units. quite a lot sold out liaoz. which is not that surprising to my hubby and I coz we'd always thought that our place quite nice. hehehe.
ours is Exec Apt (single story) 132sm. our estate is mixed 4rm, 5rm, and exec. in most blocks in my estate, each floor in the block has 2 Exec Apt, 2 5rm, and 2 4rm flats. 5 years ago, the prices were really high I think. Exec Apt were gg for $450k plus minus (depending on which floor u take). So a whole lot of the EAs were not bought at all. But the 5 room and 4 room flats were almost all sold out.
Last year when we bought our flat - $350k (our upstairs neighbour paid $450 in year 2000). This time round our next door neighbour (floor plan exact mirror image of ours) paid $320k. hiaz we a bit heartpain. but its okay lah, we got married this year mah. so had to have the flat. anywayz this sort of thing very hard to tell one right... hehehe that's how we console ourselves...
yeah and our place is really near mrt and quite nice. so we're not surprised that a lot of the units have been snapped up this time round... especially at $30k discount! sob sob... hahaha...
hehehe so that's the story of our estate lor.

Yes very excited also spend a lot to prepare for PS. Lucky thg this mth is sale so bght my barang barang at cheaper cost.
Yah GDL still nd to discuss then can start wrkg on the guest list i still do not know hw many tables my PIL wanted i just estimated so have to wrk on all these during the GDL discussion so best to do it together durng food tasting once and for all. My PIL unlike others they always like to do last minute thg that make me feel very stressful nearer to my AD.
I just place my order for red wine so more or less I have done most prep only left with my AD WG (to be confirm and reselect since there is some hiccups) + guest list & table arrangement, venue decor theme, weddg favour, invitation cards & thgs to buy for GDL. All these is to be done nearer to the date lor but have book & place deposit with all those vendors just nd to tie up the details.

For Pan Pac, they do not have that practice. If you have 11 paxs, they will prepare extra food, extra setting and charge accordingly to you once you let them know you have 11 paxs. I told them to set 11 paxs but cater only 10 paxs food but Pan Pac said its not allowed cos some portion of food, they will just prepare nicely, esp for appetiser, fish, sea cumcumber, etc...
Also, last minute, add in chairs, can try lah but I think it will be very messy and doesn't look so nice to the wedding couple.

hi hi sweet..
i guess it's worth investment, bcoz i dun think u will be "disposing" the mattress aft a usage of say 3-5yrs, so at least i find it worth to get something that u both like..not too firm nor too soft & yet very comfortable + gd support for ur back..it's very impt..did u get the bed frame together? how much u spend in the bed frame & mattress?

Yuki,
cos my hb have bad records mah. hahaha
milderina & babycupid,
I only changed once, when I wear Kua, I have my Kua shoe. My cheena one lah.
Ying,
I only have 1 with 11 pax, and that is the VIP table.. mmm think in the end never charge leh.. wonder if it is becos they have extras from those tables taht have 9 pax, perhaps can check. The rest all I have 10, vegetarian, they definately charge.
Try to see if u can drag longer or not, or when really someone cant turn up, then ask them to reduce that from 11 to 10, think then they wont charge. (try ur luck on AD itself, in the afternoon)

hi hi jovial..
i guess it depends on individuals bcoz diff pple have diff arrangement with their bridesmaid/jiemeis..like for eg: if u have told them that u will package their dress then u will need to do some shopping with them..but if u didnt mentioned anything to them..i guess it will be nice to let them know if u have any color theme u wished they can follow to it so that it will be "standardise" for everyone..also u might also take into consideration the make-up & hair-dos (if any) for them b4 the dinner..for myself, i will be sponsoring my jie-meis on make-up & hair-styling for my wedding dinner & also each of them will be getting a facial treatment b4 my wedding as a gesture of appreciation to their help during my big day bcoz my customary will be on a fri (happen to be mth-end so my jie-meis will be taking leave off work just to help me)..usually they will be getting ang-baos from both side of the parents & the couple during the customary day..if u think it's a big hassle for u, then maybe u can consider giving them a bigger ang-bao & let them decide what they wanna wear for ur wedding..cheers~

Additional Advise:
my mum insist that suckling pig can only be sent in during tea ceremony on the Day before my wedding whereby I thought can be sent in the morning so my xiongdi makes extra trip back to hb place to send back the suckling pig..
My advise is go through the iternary 1 by 1 with ur parent, sometimes, u think they know, or u mentioned before.. but on the day before AD then u discover they have their own ideas and disagreement even on small things like the logistics.
some of my timing..
MUA come at 6.30am, makeup till 7.50am, snap pix of parent letting down veil Me hb come at 8.10am, saboh till 8:40pm, take photos etc etc pray pray until 9.10pm, left hse for photoshoot, driver went missing with videographer.. reach outdoor shooting at 9.30am, but waited for my missing driver till 9.45pm.. then have a quick photoshoot and reach hb hse at 10.20pm, then relatives late so wait again till around 11.10pm then start tea ceremony.. then finished at abt 12.30pm, quickly change and left the hse at 1pm.
reach my mum place at 1.30pm, quick quick tea ceremony, left my mum place at 2.30pm and reach hotel at 3pm.. remove makeup, wash the harden hair till 3.45pm.. MUA coming at 4.30pm.. bo time to rest at all... cos all the aunties come into our room for makeup.
