(2009) Brides of year 2009

[bubbly19]

i also went to NATAS fair yesterday to book a short holiday to BKK after wedding! soooo many people manz....

haiz also no mood to work

 

[noknok]

kath.. there's a specific florist I hv to use and the In charge is only back tml. So I'll have to make an appointment w her this sat I guess.

So far, my hand bouquet for BM not done yet. Just bought things like XD's ties, evening gown's shoes, bra set(must get new one.. sigh), things to make ang pao box (I hv yet to do it). Think there're still things that I've not buy like new set of clothes, towels, etc. the more I think, the more headache.

 

[nikiko]

ete, I'm also a catholic bride. Will be holding my solemnization at Church of St Mary of The Angels.

JP ang pow rate is less than $100 ah? I still thought need to prepare at least $168 for JP leh.. wa, if so, I can save some amount liao. hehe... maybe I can give $128? I'm not fetchin my JP to church because my JP is a priest of that church, I think he will be there anyway?

gals, I think most brides will be stress before wedding. Me too, cannot focus on work, keep thinking about the wedding preparation - have I miss out anything? Will my wedding be smooth? so much unnecessary worries. But I guess is normal for a bride to have so much concern de. Hopefully the wedding can be carried out soon and smooth then we all can be back to serious work and life again!

 

[dizonne]

[rierie]

yea!!! according to htb, all our PS stuff are in singapore! potrait, album, golden invitation cards,thank you cards, palm size album, scrolls, etc!! 3 more hours and i can see them le...

mm..i dunno which way of folding is faster..

 

[noknok]

Lalaa, it's better for you to list down the hymns and ask them if it's ok. That way you will 'force' them to look at it. Tell them you need time to print mass booklet.

 

[dizonne]
