(2008) Brides of year 2008

[lois]

i need to clarify myself.
all along i was saying about the jiemei's chinese zodiac sign which chiong with the bride's. as my colleague is a tiger, she nv had a chance to be jiemei to any of her friends lor. its one thing which she pointed out.

for chionging with the ILs, i think when the bride arrives at the groom's place, all the pple in the house have to keep out of sight of the bride till the tea ceremony.

anyway, to each of his/her own. these were just info heard over lunch/gossiping.

 

[josey]

Hi rac,

I've PM you the contact. She doesn't have a website as she is a freelance MUA.

 

[ayukie]

i see ...

 

[koyoyo]

haha meiling,
yaya i am surprise i thought i am super fat.. anyway happy the photo are ok.. i believe urs n mrs chan will be better cos u ladies are super skinny.. so no need to envy... lucky i am not standing beside u all haha
lex pm me ur facebook..

 

[lois]

so out of goodwill colleague shared this with me. but come to think of it, none of my candidates for the jiemeis are in tiger or dragon. hubby is dragon, so not too bad.

another of my gf, who i wanted very much to attend my AD, wont be able to. she try to avoid all "red" and "white" functions, cuz she always have small incidents/accidents which cost her wallet to bleed. so no choice lor. *haiz*

 

[uksportgal]

hahhaa so many post till I can't follow liao hahaha just 1, 2 days!

By the way I will be "inactive" in the forum till I back from HK... ard 13th Feb that week ya... Will go back see what's good... and of coz to collect those order you ladies have make... Anything your need to find me pls email me I will check my email

 

[lexilicious]

uksportgal,

u gone le? Help me get angbao! the one with couple holding the ribbon and the xi word on top! 50 pcs ok?

 

[lexilicious]

meiling
you're completely NOT fat... *facepalm*... so curvy! I like!

 

[cyc]

Welcome Cheryl!

Tinkybell, take some pi pa gao.. it helps soothe the throat. I'm still coughing too. But no choice, have to work. Pity my colleagues who have to endure the "noise". Hope I don't spread the germs..

Lex, Meiling and Sue, I add u guys on my FB ok?

 

[uksportgal]

I am still ard not yet gone.. just that I will be rather busy coz of CNY need to clean house and also settle all the things before I go back HK so maybe don't have time to keep coming online to check forum ...

Have you check out how much SG is selling ... if not wrong got some ladies here found the same kind and bought it?? coz if is cheaper in SG dun waste the money

Actually I am thinking for the AP.. wait for me to go back HK I go check out if got nicer one 1st or not.. if by then I can't find any better that you like, then I get the one I post for you... do you like this idea?

 

[cyc]

Alamak.. I don't know how to add pple on FB with just email add. haha.. Anyways, Lex, I think I found u on FB. Sent u a msg. If it's u, add me k? hee..

 

[shi40lin]

hi nec,

Oh so there's another railway at bukit timah? I know another is Clementi Raiway track. My hubby like the TP railway station and i wish to take at the track there wor! Wonder can a not wor.

Gals, normally how many places do you choose to take the PS?

My AD's MUA is Dana too. Lucky she works with my BS so i can get her for my makeup

Maybe you should book her first cos she quite popular wor.

My bestie also got Daniel Beh for her AD wor. But hardly see any feedbacks over her at the Photography thread wor. Wonder why.

 

[zhuoen]

am done with my ps!!! selected my pics!!! m poor cos i topped up SOME pics!!! gosh... cant share any ideas with u guys cos i took my ps in tw... it was a different experience and fun!!! enjoy the process...

i m thinking wat to prepare for my ad... had already source for pg... and m doing away with vg... i think misc things like buying ang bao, doing ang bao box, huby is doing up the photo montage now... any recommendation of car rental?

 

[princess_sue]

haha mrs law... you look good in the pictures.. so you should an xin already .

pretty gal.. hehe.. i bet you will be a pretty bride on the AD.. hehehe... both me and mei were wondering.. how is your ROM.. after seeing the pics.. i bet its a heartwarming and nice affair that day.

hi mei, ya lor no point getting in debt coz of 1 day affair. It's the future that counts..

 

[piggytinky]

hmmm.. moomooland. I'm sending the cards with the cakes on my GDL.

poopy, u can start to complain of kneecaps pain... then they wont dare to ask u to kneel... Just kidding! Sorry, if they are insistent then do. U dun have to please them after the marriage rt? tea ceremony is traditional and i guess they want to show that they r respected in the eyes of their relatives. Take it easy.. AD is oni once a lifetime, dun let them spoilt it..

 

[sleepygal79]

Hi ladies, Could someone enlighten me what's "Style Wedding Couples of the Year 2008" all about? Paiseh ah, never heard of that before.

 

[mentos]

Yup It's significant others, thanks lois for clarification.

Yah i think the animals is dependant on the date and zodiacs of bride & groom and many factors. Let the geomancer advise us ba. coz the other time my sister also chiong my cousin, she's a dog. Anyway what they made her do was to get her to hide into the room when groom comes, after that she can come out already.

 

[pinjie8275]

Hi zhuoen,

I known a private car rental personnel. You can contact him to check if he has lobang for your preferred car. Contact Francis at 94559643. Good services! (^_^)

Let him know you r recommended by Serene Swee. Might be able to get a discount.

Hi all,

I am also looking for PS venues. Anyone can tell me where to find teh scenery photos like Xiao Guilin, railway and etc? Never heard of these places before leh.

 

[shinni85]

PSH: thanks for the suggestion! i shall see how it is! =)

[providencia]

Hi Gals, if you all don't mind, I'll update the list every sunday (unless there are no updates), cos don't want to fill the forum with tables. Let me know feedback, yeah?

 

[vysweetapple]

Hi,

I heard from somewhere that its is not good to give out wedding cards during the CNY as its also a "XI" & will crash together. & some relatives do not like to take wedding cards on CNY. Just a penny of out thoughts... that's the reason y we completed our GDL earlier.

I guess we will kneel down during the tea ceremony if my in-laws wants. Since its a kind of respect for them.

 

[xmasnowy]

hihi.. i oso gettin ROM on 08 aug 08!! hehe
i gettin celestial bliss...

 

[~sblbee~]

koyoyo,
*ah bish* u har, nonsense...u where got super fat? u look so pretty n radiant in ur ROM pics dat make us all envy

wished dat mrs chan n i can look as great as u n mal, for me we cant afford to b fat cos we r doing our solemnisation on d same day as AD looking forward to see bob's pics though

lex,
dun b deceived by d photos....definitely i'll post some nice photos cos d ugly ones i removed liao im not curvy at d rite places, have put on some weight ever since i last posted d pics...


hi cyc,
sure no prob, add me on facebook, wana see how u look like too

sue,
tis i agree, recently a fren offered to help me get some wedding stuff frm BKK, im trying to cut down n save d cost for wedding as far as possible cos i alrdy spent a bomb on buying bags these days...tell u sth, i got myself some coach n burberry bags too

 

[mary_poppins]

Hi providencia, good idea! Pls proceed with your suggestions and thanks for all the coordinating work!

 

[littlepanda81]

hi gals, i am 13 march bride.

Agree wtih June, if in laws wanted it, we will kneel too. Everybody must be happy..

I am giving out my cards to relatives during my guodali..and my in laws said they want to give out during CNY..coz big family..hard to send out one by one..mmm.

So are u guys excited? hee.. I am doing my montage now..very lazy coz its near to CNY...

 

[gingerbread_gal]

Hi zhuoen,
when's your AD? Which part of tw did u go for PS?

Pin&jie8275,
Can i quote you also for the car rental? I'm looking for beetle cabriolet...quotes from the standard sources are quite high.
Btw, Xiao guilin is at bukit gombak.
For those who wants to go railway, think it'll be better to double check if can enter the tracks.

 

[jo_vin]

Thanks providencia for updating!

 

[green_tranquility]

Thanks Mentos. I'll give that oil a try. Is NTUC pharmacy or Guardian selling it cheaper?

My legs have many mosquito bite scars and a few new ones add on every week. My face has acne scars. Was initially planning of apply concealers to hide them on AD.

 

[ymuznick]

Hi providencia, pls add mi..AD:08 Nov 08 Venue: Carlton Hotel BS: Bliss Bridal PG/VG: Essential Photography

 

[xenxen]

Hi gals,

[green_tranquility]

[simplyserene]

Hi Praisey,

Sorry I missed the gathering. Was out of town on Sat for PS and didn't manage to get back in time. Pai seh pai seh... Anyway, I really have new found respect for models. It's so tough being one!

Hi Kara,

We're having our banquets @ the same place! I'm doing ROM & dinner on the same night as well. You've got Lam as your AD PS. He's good. Got that bluetooth thingy that he uses to flash the pics that he takes of your guests. Quite entertaining
