(2009) Brides of year 2009

- Start date
Wah!!!
Hmm....
With that $700, I can do many mini wonders for my wedding liao...
Or to the minimum, at least can cover close to 1 banquet table...(Times are bad)
But again, if you can afford den go ahead.
Afterall, like what usually BS always tell you:
"ITS ONCE IN A LIFETIME THINGY"
P/S: 1 man's meat can be another's poison.

Hi paradise & mrswong, thanks for the info. Think I will go down Suntec to check it out. Coz wear gown really seems much nicer! hehe
skywolf: Forrest Productions indeed have pretty good works and style, with reasonable price for the full package. However, did you encounter them like keep mentioning about the deposit upon your confirmation of their services? I understand that we have to pay deposit to secure the date upon confirmation, but seems that every email, sms & meet-up, it's all about deposit. So that makes us a little uncomfortable. So am wondering whether is it just us who thinks too much...

pekochan81 > my friend used them, and i find them quite good. But never engaged them =P
I think they just want to make sure, even if couple dun last min back out, they r not at their loss. since, they reserved the slot for the couple, and block off all other couples. and suddenly the couple withdraw... it means they lost other potential customer who will take their service.

i'm also very flat and the nubra when used correctly really helps to push up and create clevage!!! but i dont use it often coz i'm afraid it might drop out 
mine's the original silicon type, bought many many yrs ago.. i think its better than the cotton type coz more natural?

Hi dac, till now, we still find their works pretty good and reasonably priced for PG & VG. Probably, it's just their way of doing business ba, that makes us skeptical. Otherwise, the headache of AD PG & VG would have been solved. Managed to find another VG, but still hunting for PG. Anyone here use montage studios or Academy Video for AD PG?
Gambate all brides-to-be!
Last stretch for you guys, i know how exciting it can get. Coupled with the 1001 things to do, it can get a little heady and quite stressful. But so long as you're organised, have a list of to-dos and timelines and schedule, you should do fine.
As Benjymocha and Yip said - i cldn't totally agree more that you must rem to trust your helpers and let go on that day. Just focus on your happiness and smiles, and savour the moment, for the day will never come again!
@geminigirl: don't worry abt the swine flu, i think the media is over-reacting. ppl will still come. though i had quite a few ppl who were sick last min and decided to stay home. [I still made $$ from the dinner btw]
@lorraine: don't worry too much, the guest list will definitely change, right up to the last day. So far do u have enough ppl to cover the minimum no. of tables at the venue? slowly, rem the all impt checklist.

Aroh, I need to do two invites ah.. one for church the other one for banquet. For banquet one may need to be more formal since I have to give it out to my bosses and his relative. For church one I am thinking of inviting only friends. So can be more informal.
Boarding pass ah.. hard to match a theme leh. Me thinking of red n white now too.. haha

hahaha...anyway eva's WG will be a classic design with a red ribbon at her waist and long sash at the back...
flowers for the car will be red...i guess flowers at the banquet will be red too...
think abit hard to have rest of the place to be in red n white lar...too much is overpowering also...

As mentioned, mine is bought many years ago at Metro-lingerie dept. It's not call the Nu-Bra and it cost me only $49.90. It didn't dropped off when I wear, juz that kind of uncomfortable...Hehehehehe.... that's y I said maybe I'm paranoid. I'll not pay $159 for something I don't wear that often and well hidden..

All> Maybe I add abit information on Nubra. Its recommanded to wear smaller size but not bigger size when I contact the US office.
This is because the bra is surpose to stick onto your skin.. if too big dun know where its going to stick to.
Nubra will not drop off de le.. and if you wear with your gown the gown so tight, there is no where its going to drop to.
For size hor... I explain a bit (eg) If you wear B-Cup bra and you can fill up the B-Cup bra than you have to take the B-Cup Nubra.
(Eg) If you wear B-Cup bra and you dun fill up the B-Cup bra than you have to buy A-Cup for the Nubra.

Jo: Yup, I know what you mean. Somemore suntec the pushcart area so open place. But I'll go there to take a look too lah, coz seems like most people get it from there.
Christy: Thanks for the sizing info. This will help reduce the chances of me getting the wrong size.

Christy: Btw, will it cause any skin irritation after wearing on for too long? Am a bit worried that my skin might be sensitive, coz I just rememeberd that I used hollywood tape during my ROM to have a better fitting for my dress, and it was a little itchy at the end of the day.

Pekochan81> I also got very sensitive skin... if I wear beaded gown and my skin brush on the gown my skin will turn red. I wore the Nubra most of the time in air-con room so still ok. Only 1 time in OD which I was doing my OD PS from 5pm till 9pm after I took out the Nubra still ok.
If I have the chance again I will bring my bra to change after the OD PS in the bridal shop so I dun feel uncomfortable (sweat mah) moreover skin need to breath so its better to change to normal bra after a long day wear of Nubra.

Dac> Did not shift for me le... cause my MUA tie so tight for me for my gown so no space to shift.. some more my other zip gown they alter so much for me till I have to breath in a bit than the MUA can help me to zip up Erms.. FYI I am not a wonder "cup" gal... its a good investment for me I would say. I got the washing liquid for the nubra too.. all direct fm US is cheaper to near half.
Actually you can look for the Nubra information in youtube.. like how to wash. I last time got a link from youtube on how to wear Nubra in certain angle so look nice and bigger.. Hahah. Wonder if I still keep the link... got to check.

Finally back from my holiday and can log in now!
saggiegirl: Your matrimonial flat in Woodlands? Mine at Yishun!
christmas09: My AD also on Christmas Day!
agag: From the last Budget speech, now the rebate is S$40k for first time resale flat buyer regardless near parents or not! BTW, it's a good time to buy 5-room flat now as COV quite low or some even selling below valuation!
