hi hi tansy..
ya lor..haha..coz i was just looking for a plain red color shoes to match my EG_KUA..then it so happened there's a sale from i cant remember from DMK or C&K nearby my office..so i quickly grab it..those pointed ones with strap behind..coz red color quite hard to match also..so i thot it's a very gd buy for $10..i mightnt be wearing it again aft the wedding also..since it's only for EG..haha..oh, i think for PS with KUA, no need to specially buy red shoes to match lah..coz they might just take u half-body so dun think u will need shoes just for that few shots..the best part is i didnt plan for KUA for my PS coz i will be having EG as KUA so no point having repeated photos, then bcoz we were waiting for the outdoor vehicle from the BS to be back for our outdoor PS then still have time..so my PS PG took KUA for me to wear, the KUA is so loose that i have almost 5 to 8 pins on me..anyway, they just took like less than 10 shots...so we just have to stay pretty & smile while making sure that the pins dun poke into me when i m seated down or slightly bending down..haha..

Hi Gintonic,
i was advised differently on An Chuang. The master said my hubby-to-be should sleep on the bed on the night when it's An Chuang so that there is Ren2 qi4......i'm confused.

hi springtulip
my master advised my hubby tat if he will be leaving our own house to his parents place on AD morning, he has to sleep on the bed but get a boy boy or a guy whom is not married yet to sleep with him. he cant sleep alone on that bed. so confusing hor..haha..

Hi pat,
thks for the compliments.
It's actually very easy to make the basic guest book but more time spent on getting the measurements right and also the decor on. I dun like the hotel and the BS guestbook so I explored doing on my own. That one is my first attempt for a fren. Will be doing a second one by end May for someone else. Maybe when u decide if u want to make, then email me? can email to the address listed at my webpage.
Ivy,
the plain pillows - I made from scratch one. i dun think u can buy plain ones outside. So far, i have not seen any shops selling the kind of plain pillows I m using. There are some shops that sell heartshape pillows with minimal decors on, like laces and little embroidery.
No lah, not a stupid qn. So far, i have never used real flowers and dun think I will ever try that. A bit too challenging for me. =P
Pros of using real flowers - very nice lor. Real thg cannot beat the fake ones. =P
However, the flowers cannot last. U can only either make it the nite before or on the morning itself. Then u cannot keep it as a momento cos the flowers will die. Even if u try to dry it nicely, i think difficult to keep the ring pillow as a momento which most of us wld want, right? hmm.. can't really advise on how to keep a ring pillow decorated with real flowers cos I dunno much about drying flowers the correct way.
Also, if u are using real flowers with dye on it, then it's a no-no. Cos it will stain the pillow. That's why ppl still use fake flowers.
Hope the info helps.

most importantly, do bring a pair of slippers for PS! coz PS will most prob b your first time wearing your new heels and sure will gana blister. even not, the height will b very tiring on your legs which will affect your facial expression. that's what happened to me and for some pics, i was in slippers, using my gown to hide them. ahaha
storm,
No specific one place to get all the flowers but have to say Spotlight as the most varieties. Also explored areas in People's Park, Arab Street, Bras Besar. Recently found a nice flower in parco bugis - those carts. But rather expensive. I m still contemplating to buy or not.

Hi Min Mic,
My AD gown, EG and hubby's suit and pants was MTM. Get to keep one and i think i'm asking my hubby to keep his.
For the design, we look thru wedding mags and website. Had already decided on a 2 piece gown. Top is corset and bottom is A-line satin and will be going for the victorian look. Will be meeting him tomorrow to discuss more details.

jojo,
bring drinking water with a straw inside n lotsa tissue if ur hubby sweats alot. so u can dab the sweat away during outdoor shoot. n facial blotters. hmm... bring slippers... in case u go beach. u dun wana ruin ur nice shoes at the beach. i made this mistake n ruined my silver wedding shoes. argh. hmmm. and also any other props u might wana pose with, like the first soft toy hubby bought for u, etc. n ask ur hubby bring a few more shirts of different colours to match ur gowns. cos my hubby only bring 1 coloured shirt to match my evening gown, then got very little flexibility. we underestimated. =P

Hey springtulip8, greekgal is rite dat if ur hubby wanna sleep on d bed then he has to get a young boy to sleep together d nite before AD. Its not advisable for ur hubby to sleep alone on d bed. maybe diff masters advised differently based on both ur chinese 8 characters lor. U wont go wrong if u follow their instructions.

Hi Pet,
I think your mother just want the best for you so she want to make another one that is nicer for you.
Do let me know early if u need me to help cos I m cutting down on the no of assignments I m taking these days. Very tough to manage my work (increased workload lately), reno n wedding preps. Oredi fully booked till early Jun. Thank goodness there a few long weekends coming up for me to finish all of them.

Jean: Yuan wang ah (innocent!)
! I believed you all along... It's just that Carrefour was easier to go to. Dunno why I keep thinking Parker's Wine is in an ulu place, hard to go, and I also thot no transport provided.
Anyway, Parker's Win's service is excellent. Initially we ordered 42 bottles. We paid 20%. Then yesterday we called to add 8 more bottles. We thot need to go down and pay more, but she said don't need.

DaMan,
How many pictures does your package includes? Thought of any nice places for your PS yet?

Samantha,

popie,
think your shoes very similar to mine leh. i bought it at Swank. also silver colour and wore it during my ps in march. hehe...
leafmemories,
if the printer is 5 mins away, most prob is city square where Dawn Bridal is.
jojo,
apart from wat popie and chipdale has said, i brought a ballet costume which i bought in bangkok and shoes for my indoor ps. Is 17 apr an indoor or outdoor shoot? cos i did mine on 2 separate days.
do think of some poses that u like, so that you and your FH can do some "different poses". u can tell your mua that u prefer natural look or certain colours of your eye shadow. Wear a button shirt on the day of PS so that u can put on make up first then change to your gown. u may want to bring your makeup remover and facial cleanser along too. tell your FH to bring a few ties to match your WG/EG.
