pekochan81, i was there ard 7pm..
sad.gif
should hv gone there after my dinner.. Btw, i'm also torn between Sweetest Moment & Pine. I've try Pine but not SM n till now no feedback on SM..

eggy, if itz bcos of his work always comes 1st den u intend to call off the wedding or bcos he seems bo chap (which most of e guys r) i don't think u should lor unless u r talking that itz bcos he's always out wif his frens or having an affair ete.. Most importantly is r u able to live e rest of ur life wif someone who put his career 1st b4 u? Forgive me for saying tis as i felt that a guy should hv a career b4 having a family but den again tis is very subjective..

Vicki> But actually the guy told us we still can call them to place orders first. Then payment & collection to be right after the 7th mth. Coz they be closed for 2 weeks.

I've crossed out Choz Confectionary. But have put Gin Thye as my KIV list,coz I think let my parents choose whether they wan traditional or modern cakes lor. But Sweetest Moments still under my preference coz like their packaging.

Hey! I went to Academy Video to view their works too! But I like their pix more. But din sign up with them for some reasons. Apparently they have a new style of video coming up rite?

XKA,

Not too sure wat's the actual size u looking at.
If it doesnt have to be of glass, acrylic also can, try ikea. They have several designs which might give u new inspirations.

If not try those big florist shops at Thomson Road.
Been there before. They got lots of those stuffs in bulk. But not too sure abt the pricing.

Cher, had a short stay in greece before.
Absoloutely wonderful place. I mean scenary.
I went there without much preparation, jus look through website, lonely planets and brochure maps. Didnt manage to go Santorini as it was Winter. Will take hours to go back boat.

As for locals, will be good to understand their culture first. I had a cultural shock since on the plane. They can be pretty rough and talk very loudly. But they are pretty nice afterall.

I didnt like the food. Unless you're a cheese and yogurt lover. But dun expext theirs to be the same as what u get in S'pore. It's very authentic. Other dishes very salty and with very strong favaourings.

Not forgetting to do homework before going to any of the places of interest. You'll b surprise that you might need to pay to enter certain parks.

If not wrong, on Sundays they have got free entries but might close earlier. And on Mondays, they are not open. Check it out.

Garfield> I think first year ang pao tradition depends on individuals.. According to my mum, we have to give parents/grandparents/youngsters but will be getting from elders too.. According to my inlaws, we have to give parents/grandparents/youngsters, and will be getting from parents only.. According to my friend who got married recently, no need to give youngsters, but won't be getting from elders too..

So many different versions ;p

Angelina> Ya.. Excited.. But haven't bought shoes to go along with the Kua.. Must remember to do it soon...

As for the "Xi" stickers, you can try Chinatown.. There are some outlets selling bridal items..

hi all! Hope u girls have more or less settled your wedding stuffs!
happy.gif


Eggy, perhaps you can rethink abt the cancellation cos i believe this is just the heat of the moment.. cool down first and perhaps have a talk with ur bf on it?

guess the date is getting nearer and nearer, we all wanna get things done quick so that we do not have to coordinate everything at the last min...
so perhaps that's why we tend to quarrel with our bfs abt the whole preparations?

anyway, wanna ask you girls where you will b going for your manicure/pedicure? i seldom go to those manicure salons as mostly i'll DIY myself.. so now clueless abt this.. any recommendation anyone?

TIA!

My initial plan was to book during the NATAS fair too.. but have been going to those pre-natas travel fair and the agents always "claim" that their prices will either be higher or remain the same...guarantee wont be lower.. esp those tours which are already confirmed - the price will only increase.. and not decrease..

Tot of it too.
I like Jolin. The several times when Jolin came to S'pore I didnt catch at all. My hubby always tell me Im not a teenage anymore, Im overage.

He then always tell me to imagine if I'm a mummy going after my idol with my daughter. *Faintz**

Hello girls, thanks for consoling me. and you are so right. Why can the guys be so bo chup. it's our wedding, not my wedding.

Eggy: *pat* I know how you feel, I actually told my bf that I can cancel the wedding since he's taking me for granted. Then after that I felt a bit bad, cos we came such a long way.

Anyway, for those who are interested, I have put some of my wedding shots on vimeo. It's not very clear cos they compressed it and you need to let them load before playing. haha Enjoy and give me your comments.

Layout is not even out yet. My designer is sooo slow.
