Hi jeannie,
I think it depends whether groom's family mind. Some will really mind and no matter what, you have to enter their house , just like what nec mentioned as a symbol of belonging....and may proceed to pray ancestors (if they r buddhist).

Hi Jeannie,
so after your HTB fetch you, you don't intend to go over to his place?

For me, it will be gatecrash, go HTB place, then go to venue. Similar to yours, just that gotta go back to HTB's place first.
Think like what Nec says, its like bringing you to his family. You gotta check with his family...my HTB and I initially didn't want to go back to his place but his grandma insisted, saying have to offer joss-sticks to ancestors.

Hi Gals

Well i'm a christian and my HTB is a free thinker. His mum is a catholic but not the devout kind. My mum's not very keen on this idea as she said it's not very nice. But will definitely still consult my FMIL before I proceed.

I am a christian too, but I have to do

1) gatecrash (and do the roasted pig and red umbrella thingy to please parents)
2) FH's house and change gown do serve tea (please inlaws)
3) Back to my house to serve tea. (to please parents and relatives)
4) luncheon and rest (boh pian have to eat and avoid the sun)
5) go church for my church solemnisation etc (the only thing i am looking forward to ^^)
6) dinner reception at church. (Well what can i say.. we have to feed the guest.. boh pian)

Even it sounds alot but we spread the time out so that we do not need to rush here and there. We do all these things are usually to please the older folks, other folks etc and traditions.

Some traditions like ancestors worship, and lighting of long feng candles, you should inform ur inlaws or parents that it is something you die die will not do. Just try to cham xiong as much as possible. It will make ur life ezier.

Also a fellow believer. Somewhat similar to SotongLet, except for church.
- gatecrash plus pig
- FH's house and change to kwa to serve tea
- luncheon and change to CS
- back to my house to serve tea
- rest and proceed to hotel for dinner
no candles and incense and no ancestor.

have friends who skip gatecrash, everyone just meet at hotel, solemnise at hotel, start luncheon and then serve tea in separate room while other guests are eating.
different elders will have different requests, guess best to check with the older folks.

sorry if sound curt, fingers cramped from typing whole day.

harlow again :p

tinky,
i can walk and everything in heels - no issue but I dunno why.. maybe my feet too big or what... always kenna "cut" /blisters/skin abrasion from wearing heels. So sometimes wear until a bit fed up.

meiling
guess what! I went to Leapin Lizards today.. hehehehe. I ordered two pairs of shoes le.. one pair for my gown (white with lace) - actually wanted to add a row of bling bling and a lace flower on it but that would cost me extra $150 for the lace flower, then the crystals another 70+ at least.. so bo pian.. make it plainer - damage is $190 for that le.. then made another bling bling pair for my EG.. picked something simple but most important.. secure lol.. got a lot of straps :p The man was very nice - Issac and he was super helpful.. suggest designs and details everything.. so yah... it was a good overall experience... we'll see how the results look on 16 April cuz gotta go for shoe fitting for my bling pair heheh... then can collect end April.. then I slowly go think if I wanna pay to add bling on my shoes.. heheh *cheapskate face*

cyc...
don't be stressed

Have you spoken to your designer about your concerns? I've noticed that some EGs are designed in such a way that heavy detailing can be removed after the wedding is over so that you can wear it for other occassions. Alternatively, you can opt for a two piece EG which I understand is more flexible as you can wear the top with other stuff and the skirt for other functions.

Hi Gals

Thanks for your inputs. I guess ultimately it's not just OUR day but also parents &amp; relatives etc.
Guess we can't just have what we want unless we can totally disregard how the elders feel.

Alright, will definitely have a discussion with everyone involved.

Btw how do you all feel on wedding lunches? I know there's a thread. But thought I post the qn here too since we're talking.

I've been asking a few of my friends who are around my age or even younger... they aren't that keen and the response about it isn't good.

oh cyc...
don't worry about feeling like "then end up as centre of attention cos I look clownish". I've been having nightmares about it too - but mine is I'm big sized and I'm worried I'll look like an overfrilled giant cream cupcake..
happy.gif
It's hard to try and draw a line between looking elegant, but wanting it to be "bling" enough / dreamy enough for the BIG day.. but I think as long as you feel confident enough, you can probably carry everything off with enough flair

Hi Jeannie, wedding lunch is a good idea, you'll have more time to interact with your friends and relatives. I would have opted for a lunch if the elders were in favour. I believe some of us BTB in this thread will be having wedding lunches, perhaps they may be able to help you.

Hi Providencia

well I'm still considering only but so far my friends aren't keen with this idea. Of coz I'll also be asking how my parents &amp; my PIL feel before doing so.

Do u think lunch will lack the romantic feel?

Hey Jeannie mine will be a luncheon. This was a decision we made ourselves and so far, our families have been quite supportive. Basically we just wanted the evening to ourselves so luncheon is a more ideal choice for us.

For us, there will be a simple gatecrash (or maybe none at all) and then to his house to offer tea to in-laws. Then to the hotel for solemnisation and tea ceremony for relatives of both sides and afterwhich the luncheon.

Hi Jeannie,
Mine is a high tea buffet style which starts at 12 noon. Like qin ying, its a decision that we made ourselves. While my mum and a few relatives suggested doing dinner instead, we gave them our reasons for doing lunch.
As my Ad is on sunday, we told them its so that ppl won't feel so drained the next day and that we won't be too tired. I told them straight that I show a black face when I'm tired and won't bother entertaining guests at all. And doing a lunch ensures that people won't be rushing home.
Thus far, the response has been positive!
happy.gif

Regarding whether a lunch is romantic or not, it depends on your venue and deco....if yours is at an enclosed area eg ballroom, it makes no diff if your reception is held in day or night time. After all, the doors are closed to the sun (in a matter of speech)

I just love the idea of doing lunch!
happy.gif
Then can enjoy evening with HTB...that's romantic for me!

qin ying,
My plan is so similar to yours...though the gatecrashing might go a bit crazy cos most of them involved are our sec sch friends.

Hi ladies, I'm back from my HM.

Stnov, so sorry to hear about your baby. You are still young...all the best for your ttcing.

We are trying to conceive too...but I have a big problem to overcome. Erm...not comfortable to share it here but I do wish all that are trying to conceive all the best of luck!

My bestie just gave brith this morning and also after seeing all the cute Japanese kids during my trip, it really brings out my maternal instincts! :p

Hi ladies, I see so much of talking has gone by!

I'm doing lunch too, jeanie. We're doing a simple church service followed by lunch reception,so never really considered dinner cos it's just too expensive. End of the day it is to commemorate our wedding and union, so we should call the shots! Every little detail matters in contributing to the romanticness of it all! Let's share ideas
happy.gif


Today we decided this should be the sequence:
- hubby fetch me
- gatecrash (mwahahahahahahahhaha watching all the wedding videos of other pple are giving me a lot of ideas!)
- go back to his place for tea ceremony
- mingle and rest
- go to church for wedding service
- lunch reception
- tea ceremony for my relatives at church
- rest, then adjorn to restaurant for pte dinner for very immediate family

I think this might for the best as bride is not supposed to wear WG back to own home cos you're supposed to pretend 3 days has passed rite...so best to wear WG all the way to church, then change to CS for reception and 2nd tea ceremony.

prov, my FMIL insist that roast pig is to be given to my family on GDL. Does it matter if it's given on GDL or AD?

Nec, I visited Academy video and simon today. Both are not bad, but I think we'll probably sign up with Simon. Glad to know that he's got 20 years of experience. You might want to visit him and see if you like his style too. Price is not bad too
happy.gif
Thanks Mary for the recommendation!!! Now I can finally stop worrying about VG.

Jeannie, I set up email notification so I'm always updated about the threads I'm interested to read.

SotongLet, I don't hv a particular agent to look for us. Juz flip the newspaper and call. Once they get anything nice, they'll call us.

providencia, no need to go for butt implant lah. Juz get your hubby to smack your butt more often loh. hehehehe...

Jac and meiling, I din view the boon keng flat coz I read from papers that the walk-in is not confirmed. I din go HDB oso coz I called up and they said they have not assign any officer to my case. It'll take few more days to process it.

Jeannie, I tink the key is "Communication". Check your (and the groom's) family's expectation. Then let them know your preference. I'm sure some _in-between" arrangement can be made.

Hey Stnov, who knows by sept, you will be celebrating the joy of a new baby. Such is life. We will never really know what is coming up for us. I guess what is more useful for us is to stay positive!

Agree with Ash that you shd stay positive. With luck, you will ur ur little bundle of joy to look fwd to by Sept. So keep yourself happy and build up ur health and strength in the meantime.

I also feel the maternal instinct kicking in. But we also have some medical problem to sort out first. Praying that by God's grace we would be able to have some juniors soon!
