(2009) Brides of year 2009

[andy_n_eva]

orh...forgot to mention those...thanks kath...

florist is hotel arrange one...think i shell stick to plain old red roses...the flower stands by the aisle and stage and centre pieces...all handled by them...they will move a couple down to function room for solemnization then move back up again (function room and ballroom on different levels). food tasting that time will settle this part.

AD schedule i done liaoz...now is only minor tweaks...just confirmed last nite abt the time MUA will arrive so now is to arrange with PG and VG.

helpers duty is more or less arranged for my side...my XD briefing is 22nd aug...JM briefing not my dept...

XKA, since u confirm ur JP liao then go e-file lor...i kiasu cos i scared i forget that...that one forget means dun need to solemnize liaoz...

i more or less know who to sit together with who...now is to decide where in the ball room they are sitting...

best place to think abt all these things is when showering...or doing big biz in toilet...u have to relax just to get the job done...so can relax and think properly...

i wanted to do save-the-date...think abit too late liao hor?

XKA, i got the softcopy back cos we spent 5 hours only managed to shortlist 1st round which is 120 pics out of 300 lor...if dun let us take back i think they need to stay there with us till next morning.

my whole company only less 20 pax...so no worries for me...1 going maternaty leave and another going reservist...the rest all ok so far...

DCn33,
noted. u dun hv PG/VG?? wedding band n love nest?? all no details yet ar?

 

[hazelzen]

ixoral, i think it's a creative idea too!
but usually the wedding cards have Chinese words, when u open the card, so i guess u wont u be putting those in as well? or do u have two types - one for relatives and one for frens?

 

[dcn33]

mashi mashi,
Still sourcing for PG erm..no VG
Wedding band - have not buy yet
Love nest - Sold, now searching

 

[mashi_mashi]

[lalaa_27]

Noknok.. nope not gettin bouquets for my bridesmaids.. only wrist corsages.. they need to have their hands free to help me wif my train & veil

i'm plannin to send save the date via email to my colleagues & frens next week..

 

[lalaa_27]

Noknok.. nope & i dun dare to try!
i dun wan it to be all sore & miss out on my 1st nite.. wahahaha
anywae heard from my fren dat its very painful!

 

[ixoral]

For relatives i'll be sticking to the hotel wedding cards since most relatives still read Chinese! Then for the photo invitation i intend to print only for friends/colleagues (younger ppl can appreciate better..haha)

 

[dizonne]

lalaa,

ur htb's aunt get her flowers frm whe???


nok,
u got so much hair meh?? need do brazilian wax?? juz shave la...


eyelash perming onli works for those wif long eyelash..if urs are short, no use perming oso...n, if u hav sensitive eyes, ur eyes might be irritated by the chemicals and heat wor...oso, ur lash will become veri brittle..can break and drop veri easily...it does the same damage as perming ur hair la...

eyelash estension oso same...tat time i did, n mi real lash broke n dropped, then i looked like sadako lor...like bo eyelash like tat...

 

[purinne]

peko-chan ... i asked mi hotel coord the same qn too ... but she told mi its not worth it to change to sth of our own ... coz they onli offset a few bucks per pax or sth like tat ...

 

[purinne]

[reine]

I havent even got the soft copies of anything. Only choose photos and wait and wait. Chased my designer liao, told him I need to do E-invite with the photos. haha

 

[ixoral]

dzxz: your save-the-date card is a physical card? for colleagues, i intend to just send email. and for friends i'll send sms. I think your statement sounds good enough. Not rude la

My RSVP msg is smthg like: "Kindly let me know your availability by [date]. Thanks!" Thought of gg for smthg more casual and not use the word RSVP. No offence but i somehow think that this RSVP word is used by alot of ppl w/o knowing what it actually stands for. Or maybe it's just me What do u all think? Is my msg ok? Or too casual?
