- Start date
I believe it should be guy's parents choose cos guy's parents are "introducing" a DIL into their family.
But usually, the couple can indicate a preference for which month.. and ask the guy's parents to choose a suitable date for them. If the guy's parents not the superstitious type, then it's easy on the couple. CAn just propose a date and see what guy's parents say.

Oh.. although the guy's parents choose or confirm the date, the guy's parents must ask the gal's parents if the date is acceptable to them. ONly if the date is acceptable to the gal's parents, then usually the couple proceeds with the wedding arrangements..
this is my understanding lah. So far, all the cases I've seen also like that.

wah! like a frame/folder for the menu is it? Initially i thot it was one of those wire things that you can clip a photo to. then realised lace and ribbons doesn't quite fit with that...
yah initially i also thought maybe just put in one album with many slots (e.g. 6-9 per page) but then guess my AD album will already look like this, so can spend a bit more time on the scrapbook for the PS proofs lah.

Hi Doreen!
8 sessions is a rough guide - cos usually you take one session to do an inventory (like an assessment to find out your growth areas and strength areas between you and your FH), and take 7 sessions to discuss. Hehe. Its not very long considering how it takes a couple so long to resolve one issue.
Sometimes topics like roles and responsibilities, finances, sexual intimacy, family of origin, conflict management etc are discussed in the sessions. So very fruitful.

As long as the guy's side is okay, then it's okay for the gal & guy or the gal to make decisions. Like in my husbnad's sister's case, her MIL also busy at work - told her son to decide with the wife.. in the end, she and her husband go to master to calculate the dates. Everything they do,.
Hi gals
heh....Franz is only sweet on paper. Not lucky lar, he knows I'm pissed off with him for last night. I left office at 9pm once I finished my work. Rushed thru my dinner at 10.30pm. Quickly washed up, shoo-ed my bro off the comp and went online to look for him. Only barely 15mins into the game, he say he too tired, need to go to bed. I also tired leh...

Something about invitation cards, my hubby asked me how my dad wrote the invitation cards esp the forms of addressing for the relatives. My parents are super particular abt it....
Subsequently, my FIL came to me with a piece of paper and asked me whether the forms of addressing is correct... When i saw the paper, i told my hubby that how come so different from what i told him....
Later my hubby told me that his BIL being the smart aleck wrote for my FIL.
The next day, my MIL asked me abt the invitation cards' addressing again. I was like, "Again?" After that, i came to a conclusion, my MIL dun trust my FIL & my hubby to do things!

Hui, have a general idea of how the sessions will be....
um. but still find it expensive even though it consists of 8 sessions. Is there any cheaper ones? One of my colleague actually told me that she went through before also. But it's over a weekend with whole day sessions (2 sessions).
So I quite confused on the number of sessions that differ. So what difference does it make?

peilin>> u & Franz very sweet leh...still got online "date" 
Doreen: It makes a difference as to how deep you want it go I guess. over the weekend type (full day sessions) are good cos it is very intensive. But no follow up, so things you learn you will probably lose them soon. However, if you have a pemarital counsellor seeing you over a stretch of time, he/she can help you monitor and maintain some changes.
I guess it really depends on what you want. For me I prefer someone who would be ard to help me maintain the changes I want to make to my relationship.
There are also 2 day workshop that are pretty good, but the con is that the info may fade away from our memory after a while. Hehe.
My workplace is also having a 2 day thingy (over 2 Saturdays 3 hrs each) next March, run by our premarital counsellors. If you are interested PM me? Cos I don't want to sound like I am selling "kok yok". Hahah. I think ours about less than $100 per couple. Groupwork has their good points too, can share within the group and the group dynamics sometimes help couples feel more comfortable and normalize the struggles that couples face.
Individual sessions have their good points in that the sessions are more focussed and targetted to issues that might be unique to your relationship.

hee babystarlet,
me not tall... i m oni 1.56m or on gd days 1.57m... kekeke. Well, i agree wif macjoe can ask fren to help record. But ultimately, watch yr budget loh.
happyface, me oso stick to WG & kebaya oni. Dun wan to keep changing clothes but miss out on time to mingle wif frens and relatives.
I attend one dinner, bride n groom prepare so many program such as singing, sketch etc... (they themselves involved one) dat end up not much time to do table photoshooting. A no of the guest left already by the time they can go table by table photo-taking. So i guess nid to plan time carefully.
