my house warming on 9th june. Less than 2 weeks from now. I haven move in yet! argh! Need to do final touch up. Bring in more things into the house. make sure it wont look too empty.
sharon, I am a Bridal concept bride. You should shortlist some, then go down to their shop to try their gowns. Try not to sign up through road shows, because unable to try the gowns mah. Allocate around 2 hrs for each BS visit.
should be in time for PS, dun worry.

sharon, I think you can start finding now ba.. give yourself maybe 1-2 mths to find. Because if you end up having MTM package may need to start slightly eariler to tailor your gown.
As for me, I sign up with my BS on 2nd appt with them.. hehe..

exactly what we'll be doing! i'm also hoping for good weather that day - our wedding will be in april 08. and yours?
but as raffles wine / corkage is on the expensive side, we're budgeting quite a fair bit for alcohol as most of our friends are alcohol guzzlers!

Hi all,
How much preparations have you gals done for your wedding? So far I have only booked the church, lunch venue and photographer. Am currently looking for a bridal studio. Am I behind time for anything?
Also, I know most people take their pre-wedding photos 2-3 months before their wedding, but for us, that means it'll be in Nov-Jan, which is the rainy season. Are you gals taking your pre-wedding photos during that period or at some other time?
Thanks!

Tete,
My overall experience during the PS was good. My MUA is same age as me, we've a lot to chat about during the makeover... I like her skill too and think tat the end result is rather natural. As I changed a few outfit while in the studio, the makeover wasn't as tiring as expected fr reading fr some threads. So far rather happy with my MUA except for my Beehive hair... which the more I see those snapshot we taken with HP, the more worried I am that e effect is very retro instead of the victorian/elizabathan feel.
But I find that my PG a bit too suay bian when he took pic. Mayb that's his style cos he is a bit of the Ah Beng kind... And both FH n I was down with bad cold on that day... then in the end, PG also infected by us... so he also started having dripping nose....
And as mine was same day as Noreen, we experienced the same kinda wet morning and super hot afternoon... While we were at the golf course and FH was sweating perfusely... His shirt was soak thru after the PG. Kekekke... And my gown n train was stained with mud and rain water... Luckily I've 3 outdoor gown so was glad when I changed into the short gown before going to the beach! Kekeke... and get sandy feet while playing with water at Changi Beach!
Will only be seeing my pic on Sat... my Coor told me that the pics have turned out beautiful but I am sketical till i see them with my own eyes!!
The whole PS wasn't rush at all... we reached YC around 7pm...

5. Slippers too
