Hi Corsage,

[belleteo]

Thanks Jo, but i am looking for silver colour lei. My designer ask me look for those silver, easier to match then can wear for both ROM and AD.

Ya Jess, i know which shoes u refering to. I also go see last week, there is only one pain silver shining shoes. If i am not wrong abt $31 only. Me also find too simple.

I looking at shoes that is comfortable also if not wait leg pain.
So hard to find a cheap, nice, comfortable shoes.

Hi Compassrose,
This is what I have in mind

I've always wanted it 2-toned so that it can match any jewellery.

Think we'll be having it custom made at Canary Diamond Co, since my engagement ring was bought from there by my FH. They've really good service too. I just haven't got round to doing it yet =p

 

[snowiee]

franz sure wouldnt go with cheerleading squad.

maybe his squad will be blind folded first...

or else wait u see franz jealous and fighting with his own squad coz all drooling coz see pei lin so chio..

[krystal80]

Too bad u all in the east. Else can work out with u all...weeps

 

[summerice]

[blackhawk]

Yup I agreed wif jhoo, the simplier the better !!!. Anyway anyone went to sign up the new singnet 5Mbps plan?

 

[gugibride]

o..okay,

Told u that down here the wed always focus in decor isntead food! haha

Eh, need to ask about the house. Is it possible to co owner the house (apt) if you're not a citizen? Lets say, when my FH bought a house here, its under my name. Can we do the same thing in sgp?

 

[krystal80]

Hey, those who got their wedding bands already, where did u all gets urs from and what was the damage range ah?

 

[jesdreamz]

Jo : Yalor so mafun... I think for HIPV, they wana give priority to those that are holding seminars at their hotel.. But hopefully there will not be any seminar since my AD is on a sunday... My VG did mention the rental of projector will cost ard $100-150.. Think if can borrow from your co., will be better..

Belle, the one i saw is ard 4 inches heel and the sides got abit of weaving design for the straps.. I saw it in Padini in JB, ard RM70+ i think... I think Novo got quite nice diamante strappy shoes... think i drop by there to recce nearer to Mar 07..hehe.. LMK if u found any shop selling nice n cheap heels ok..

 

[jaslyn_82]

ya hor.. snowiee..
never thought of that.. haha

 

[bluberi]

jas, mine is private class n can choose venue. on wed, my class got mi, my classmate n her colleague. den my sat class got mi, my sis n nephew. u can also ask the coach to ur condo n teach.

 

[bluberi]

[diaodu]

Hi jazol,

Thanks.. that's a good suggestion..

Anybody can advise me what are things to buy for GDL? Prepared by me or FMIL?

 

[blissfully_frustrated]

hi ladies!! am i forgotten???

hmm... first, stary, me the one wanna go US for honeymoon...

andrea, dun be sad... my hubby juz came back from his co trip. so can understand how u feel. u r right, having friends ard shall helps cos they help divert the attention away! so jia you! we will be here to support u!! meanwhile, i got my bands from soo kee, damage is slightly below 1k.... but it all dpds on ur bad material also, white gold or platinum will make a vast difference in price

 

[krystal80]

1.3 for the pair?
that's not bad

 

[blissfully_frustrated]

sorry, meant 'band material'... and also another to add.... if there's any diamond

[lindyy]

Hi Belle,

Sorry.. didn't have time to come into the forum, went to get my GDL & AC dates & also WIS for SengKang (SK)

We happened to shop around Bugis also and I found a pair of heels in x_odu*(S), available in creme and pink, with a ribbon (attached a line of diamante)tie to your ankle. I know you're looking for silver heels, just my suggestion. Actually wanted to buy, but my FH said its still too early for our AD.

jas, i also considering to buy new rings but hubby said the most oni buy mine coz his still look new coz seldom wear due to working environment.

 

[chendol]

oh yah I wanted milgrain too... but my fiance wasn't keen on his having... guess it's quite a girl design lah...

the pix is nice! mine is rose gold in the middle and white gold on the outside - think fairy's inc calls it the romania design. fiance's is rose gold on the outside edges and white gold in the middle. his is flat polished surface, mine is rounded polished surface with 4 pairs of tiny diamonds scattered on half of the ring.

 

[jaslyn_82]
