(2008) Brides of year 2008

[lynnqi]

yaya. every year during CNY,all 8 of us (my parents, 2 sis, grandma, aunt, me and hub) will go for tour.
Parents say go eygpt so go eygpt lor. dont think will have much things to buy lah hor. hehee
spent too much at Europe last month liao. sighz

Cut my hair short last year to chop off the damaged ends, then kept it long again for the wedding. Found short hair so much easier to maintain. And have been keeping hair long since poly (other than the chop off last year), done all the works to it before, rebonding, perming, etc. Time to get a change

 

[strawbsc]

[jolene428]

keke...yeah! i also like to chop my hair once awhile but then HB always commented tt long straight hair looks better on me, so the most i can only chop my fringe hahaha... and my hair takes so LONG to grow lor... in 2006, my hair was then still too short by the time its my ROM, ended up the MUA oso duno wat to do to my hair.. i thk i looked like a rooster tt day 0___0 so decided nt to touch my hair for 2yrs.. but it didnt grow very much longer oso 0___0 old liao..hair grow so slowly...

[ermmm]

Hey eunice, I got those bubbles as well. Photographer mentioned that the small bubbles dun really turn out well on photos. Lucky I have a big bubble machine.

PG also said those gun bubble machines not enuff. My big bubble machine didn't work during my banquet though.. Hope he got some nice shots during my solemnisation..

In any case, the kids and our friends had fun playing with the bubble wands. My cousins couldnt get any and went ard looking for them. Haha

 

[dodolet]

hey.. just asking ah.. for those gals who gone for one stop BS, do you have to pay for hair curling on the actual day?

 

[jo_vin]

Yeah!! Our thread is alive again! Haha..

strawberryshortcake, i highly recommend Derrick Ong. He has a thread in spore brides too. Under Photography and Videography. Or u can do a search in yahoo sure can find him then can view his works.

Jolene, 27th Dec u go party? Too bad cant join u, will be in Macau.. Hehe.. Wah, so many ppl go to nails bar because of u. The boss sure very happy la. Next time u go, must ask her for more discount, since u recommend so many ppl to her.

Jolene, I also havent paid my PG &amp; VG too. Will only do so after i recv the soft copies from them.

TanLee, u just came back from honeymoon right? Then gg egypt with ur family again? Wah.. Envy....

Kelly, haha, u very blur lor. Can knock into cupboard somemore..

Mei I am superbly impressed with you. This shopping trip probably can last you for a long long time! Are the brands cheaper than in Sg by a lot?

Thanks for the recommendations!

 

[eunicet]

Erlina: Hmmm...So sad, then my bubbles won't be captured too well...But I think it's a nice change from throwing confetti or flower petals!

SotongLet: Nope! Didn't have to pay when they curled my hair during the photoshoot...Temporary curls only what...Are they making you pay??

 

[koyoyo]

hi Fiona
I love your wedding gown .. you look so pretty there...

Meiling,
You are right i am impress by your records.. must take some photos to show us..

I read someone looking for MUA. I got 2 to introduce. 1 is christine from d'Element and the other is my AD mua Irene Chua. Let me know if you are still interested. Both ladies did a wonderful job on my AD helping my mothers and XG and myself

[sylmc]

eunice - my MUA made me pay for curling for my AD. Hence, the concern of sotonglet. My sis's AMK BS did not ask her to pay for curling charges for her night AD MU.

 

[jolene428]

haloo..i just changed my attendance. Okay with 28dec and 3jan. My close frens just chopped my 27jan for xmas cum new year celebration...haha...<center><table border=1><tr><td>

[baobei123]

Jo Vin

dont be sad la.. we are still in the process of planning.. : ) now I add in 3 Jan date and you may re confirm the attendance...

I was wondering where is Jane so long nv see her in liao.

 

[jolene428]

omg! those who love romance/fantasy story shld watch Twilight!!! WOoo..i m in love with the movie!!!

 

[blurz_ger]

Eunice - i think photoshoot different from AD MU. From what i know, some BS do charge around $30 for hair curling on AD. Photoshoot must give you all the hairstyles you like so that u will top up photos mah. haha.

 

[ze_original]

gals, hw much did ur prepare for angbaos for pg, vg &amp; wedding band? Isit necessary to give seperate angbao for frds helping out @ reception? cos my reception will be manned by jiemeis &amp; bros... i wil be giving jiemei n bros angbao too on top of both parent angbao...

 

[ze_original]

Thxs eunice.. gotten the email aldy..

 

[jolene428]

halo halo

i am bringing my fren out for our private hen's date because i wont be attending her hen's party (since i dont knw anyone else there oso)...

thinking of bringing her to nibble fish spa and maybe a nice foot massage.. any recommendation mah? Heehee...

 

[baobei123]

Jolene

you may try kenko or bottle tree

http://www.kenko.com.sg/Web/main.aspx?ID=,69a97700-0cfa-4baa-94ec-98d3b3c3f2df

http://www.bottletree.com.sg/?p=76

there is one near my house there around ang mo kio. opp zhi du an.. there is a golf course and beside the golf course got prawn catching area. the fish spa is somewhere there...

 

[lsntyl]

enjoy your trip, fiona. Heard from friends who went to Korea that there are many good buys if you are into Korean skincare/makeup. Laneige is apparently a drugstore brand and not a counter brand so it is much cheaper in Korea.

Meiling>look forward to seeing photos of your hoots too.

 

[lsntyl]

so no one wants to join us? rach?

BTW, in case anyone wants to buy new bedsheets, aussino got warehouse sale.

[dodolet]

Jol, anyway.. I had already told my friends who are getting married and looking for bs to avoid my BS liao. Good thing I had gotten most things done liao.

 

[straylamb]

mehhh... long time no log in! how is everyone?
tue can't join u all...

coz flyin for honeymoon on wed... so tue will need to pack luggage bah...

 

[jolene428]

wow... nice!!! thanks yvonne for the reco!!!

actually coz she said she gg to have a massage on 30dec so i wana bring her to foot treatment and fish spa instead heehee...

so maybe mani pedi + fishspa and foot massage or smthg.. hmmm.. is kenko? Coz there is not rate card wor..

 

[baobei123]

for kenko I think they provide fishspa and foot massage. dont hv mani or pedi...more relax la and it is at town area so aft tat can go other place for medi pedi

for bottle tree more on nature.. can see tree.. ppl BBQ or eating.. but i think they only hv fish spa..

hv u been to nibble before.. cos i looking at the web not much infor.
