Hi Ladies,
Need your advise here.
Is it advisable for me to wear a rom gown for my solemnization at 6.30pm in a function room and afterwhich at about 7.30pm, change into a wedding gown for the cocktail followed by dinner then evening gown?
Or to wear my wedding gown for my rom and dinner followed by evening gown?

I don't plan to have AP box... cos it looks like we are expecting gifts from our guests, and it also looks like donation boxes too.... so instead, we have asked our reception helpers to place the APs that guests hand to them in a box under the reception table for the purposes of safe keeping..
Would this be a good idea? My concern is not to put out anything which tells guests to drop the $ there....

Hi Jane,
I think its 2 coz the bride's mum may collect the AP from the relatives (bride's side) so its better to keep both sides separate. For me, initially I planned to have 1 only....But after my friend's advice, I think I may consider 2.
Hi cactus,
I thnk although it looks like a donation box (which I also agree! Hehe..) but I think sometimes the recept might be too busy to handle the guests' attendance till they may somehow mishandles the AP they received on behalf. At times, the guests may find it easier to just pop into the AP box i feel. But it depends on individuals. If you are not comfortable, perhaps you can ask your close fren or relative to take care of your AP.

Hi Law & Len,
We'll be leaving it to the recep people to help us keep the APs. Cos we believe most guests will be writing their names behind AP. Also bride's parents' relatives and friends will prob hand over the APs to bride's parents, so less headache.
My BIL's wedding, also no AP box. It was 46 tables. Recep helpers managed the situation quite well.
Just wondering if anyone else doing away with AP box, and if so, where do they keep the APs... cos I'm thinking of having a box to contain the APs under the reception table (hidden away from sight).

Hi cactus,
If your helpers are well organised, then I believe you can do without the AP box.
For me, I think I'll still have the box there just in case there's a crowd. Coz we can't ask the guests to do this n that in our way.
Had attended a few dinners and I find having the box is kindof good when you're not sure who to pass the ang baos to. Groom's suit have pockets but the bride doesn't so the bride will finds it hard to keep if friends starts handling them the ang baos.
Any good suggestion on this?

Hi Suika,
From the weddings I've attended without an AP box, I notice most if not all guests giving APs directly to the parents, or else, to the groom. Very seldom the bride. The groom would be accompanied by his "brothers" and these "brothers" will safe keep the APs for him. Usually these APs will be given during cocktail to the groom and respective parents, if not, then directly to the reception helpers, if not, then to the bride and groom and their parents when they go from table to table for group photography...I think I may end up doing this also. I think it's a bit "nan2 kan4" to have a AP box sitting there on reception table.

hi cactus,
i think if u trust ur brothers n sisters enough and is sure of crowd control as some has mentioned then i tink its ok not to have the AP box.
But I still prefer to have it cos I think it makes colletion easier. Otherwise, after the wedding, we need to collect back from the helpers. Situations may occur. Another thing is also if your Hubby is the one keeping the AP, just make sure it will not be mixed up the AP. (meaning those he plan to give out and those he receives from guests)
