Hi!

What wedding favor u all give 2 e guests?

Did anyone know where to get a better deal for wine?

How is everyone preparation for their big day? Can share?

Thanks

 

[eunicet]

Hi Jas! Yikes...Everyone sounds really busy...I'm still busy with school, hardly have time to think...Jas, what's your AD schedule going to be like? Mine with the church solemnisation and tea ceremony is going to be sooooooo packed! *shudders* As for wedding favours, probably only going to give out the chocs that come free with the caterer for lunch...And from the hotel for the dinner...What is your budget for wedding favours?

it's always good to have yuan with ur inlaws mah

Had my GDL on Sat liao ^^ Everything looks good

Now i also expert liao HAHAHA...

Final fitting on Sun and fathers and brothers went to choose their jackets oso.. wah lau, my mother tok non-stop. So paiseh lor! Coz my MUA gg to get her frens to do my mothers and grandma in law hair so my mum keeps asking tis and tt.. until my FIL was so 'impressed' with her... LOLz... nw they knw the torment i been thr for 29yrs...

jane: wat did u do for ur hen's party? So early hen's party ah? keke... i also worried my HB frens bring him to funi places for stag nite so i told him i m gg to sacrifice and no hen's nite for myself so he cannot go for stag nite oso. If nt i fan1 lian3... keke..we had our stag and hen party anyway before ROM liao lor...

it's not as if after wedding, he nt allowed to hangout with his frens.. same for me, i can still club when i want to mah... aiyohh...

jo_vin: had a good discussion with my HB wor.. then we maybe not gg to have kids so early

pity the yr after next is tiger yr or else just nice..wait 1 yr then get pregnant... haizz...nw got to wait 2 yrs liao... wait til rabbit yr

i thk my mum will nag at me next yr...

she even told my MIL yest at final fitting that... 'u must ask them faster give birth next yr hor'.. kaoz... lucky my PIL think she v noisy :X or else i gg to be in torment after wedding...

keke jo_vin.. if ya dont mind tiger yr then we can all give birth together hahaha... *roars*

keke ur GIL in law same as mine wor... always like to cook

But they cook very yummy food! But then i dun wan her to do so much work and want her pretty pretty and go to Rasa earlier (coz booked a room for her already)... keke so told her we gg to cater, easier lah... keke...

Hi ladies

I have collected my wedding inserts last Sat at TNT (JB City Square). 400 pcs, double sided for RM218.

Have seen my album layout. Din make any changes. I have just posted my PS photos on my multiply (swee11). (^_^) Have also confirmed the design for my MTM EG.

[blanqq]

[dodolet]

Hey gals, have u guys start shopping for other gdl stuff? I think for my cakes i just get 10boxes from pine gardens on the day fo gdl in the am.. they open very early also..

Mindy, depends on where u wanna take pic of majority.. start with ur most wanted to take pic spot.. then try to fit the other areas which are near enough. No point trying to go north south east west to get pics from many places.

Eunice so which caterer u end up taking eh...

Jas, I am a minimalist... I have only done the church invites... the rest goes into ppt.. lol...songs, order of service everything else. For the songs, I have to pass them to my buddy in wmv format and tell him where to start playing for march in and out.

Oh.. for church marchin we thinking of the parent's prayer by S.C. chapman.. and march out ode to joy, symphony no.9. what do u guys think...

 

[jolene428]

Must buy additional white shirt oso coz wait after the morning he stink like mad...

[cacky]

Hi gals,

I'm looking for a website to upload my wedding photos online for our friends to view. I know there are a lot of these online albums available but I'm looking for something that I can upload songs with. Any recommendations???

 

[koyoyo]

hi cacky if you want to upload with song probably u need to use multpily or even youtube . But youtube is more hassle as u may like to set it as private which mean ur relatives need an account too..

 

[koyoyo]

Meiling,
Happy to know that everything turn out well . I guess that the magic of wedding celebration.. everything seem to go wrong before the big day but when the AD come everything turn up well with only some minor hiccups. The rest of the girls who AD has yet to arrive.. JIA YOU dont be too nervous..

 

[koyoyo]

Hi Fiona,
I DIY my guestbook. But turn out hardly anyone sign.. I have less than 4 pages full for my morning church. For my night it a wedding poster. Will upload to my multiply soon .. Getting busy tryin to settle down in my new home.
Meiling,
Welcome to "Just Married Club" how everything??

 

[lynnqi]

ya lor. pimples popping up along my eyebrow.

Jane: thought of displaying the wedding album. But like you said, said later become giam cai. I will be doing a video montage for it instead.

 

[charma97]

Okok.. Ladies, After the month of November ends, I will start a list. Then who wants gathering or so, shall reply in there.. So remember to come back here after November.. Keke..

I am currently trying my best to shed off as many fats as I can..

I will be wearing Kua for my AD because I feel it is once in a lifetime thingy to wear the Kua.

 

[cacky]

koyoyo: Thanks! I'll go explore multiply then.

 

[lost_in_space]

charma so nice to wear kua.. my bS don't have much variety, so i'm sticking with tea dress..

Jane.. i'm also collecting my albums this week which is ur bS?

[darlinhubby]

hi ladies
can i chk wif u all, hw much is appropriate for us to give for our jiemeis?

 

[jo_vin]

Bubu, i go check the number and pass to u. I think i lost the number. Need to check with my friend.. Sorry...

Charma97, ok! We'll have a gathering after our wedding!

Jane! U're back! Wah, so fast hen's night! Guess u must be excited about ur big day now right? Haha.. Nvm la, u trust ur hubby can liao. I feel better to let him go now rather than go after u all married right?

Oh no! Tat means i need to know abt the da yuan xiao yuan lor! Cos im Hokkien.. Argh... but that one is making me so blur. Anyway, checked with my mum, she say just put 1 set for everything can le..

 

[jo_vin]

Jolene, u had ur GDL alrdy? Got post pics in Multiply? I go c c look look. Hehe..

haha. ya, i always play at least 2 rounds n above de.. mj freak ma.. haha..

Why cannot have baby in tiger year? Dont utd leh..

Wah!! Really so fast!! Next sunday!!! Must be very excited now? Preps all done? I'm so excited for u! Tat means Jane's wedding is also coming. Then after hers mine wil be coming!! Wah!! I din know so fast....

TanLee, i saw ur pics! All very nice! And u so pretty and tall... Envy u..

I wont be wearing kua also. Just a simple WG for tea ceremony at my house..

Jolene, yaya, alot of last min invites to send. My side also. N mine very troublesome. Cos must print the names, then cut and paste. Must print the addresses also. Argh.. stress..

 

[jo_vin]

Jane, i think just display the pics on the screen can le. I'll be doing that too. N no need to watse money for the photobook also ma. Also must spend time to do it also. N i think u wont have alot of time le rite? So better dont stress urself out later...

Jolene, i think its really up to individual whether they wan to give angbaos or not lor. Those zi dong ones will give. Those buay zi dong one wont lor. But i have a very nice friend, she says she bz and cannot make it. But ask me if she can just drop by and c me.. I feel she so sweet lor. Then she say she got surprise for me. Hehe..

 

[charma97]

Blurqing, Giving Jiemei how much is depend on individual.. Somemore if you got gate crashing, your hubby will give them some more.

Jovin: to older folks, if your horscope must be more fierce or equal to the tiger year (like dragon), if weaker, something like your kid will bully you or so.. For me, i pantang towards this.. So I wont want to have a tiger bb. So trying hard to have a cow..

Even though they said born in cow year, very gu ming.. need to work thru out their life
