Most people asking for $20k minimum with very lousy or I should said no reno. $40k is very normal here.

I just went to select my pre-wedding shoot photo.. Quite disappointed.. Entitled to choose 30 but we only managed to choose 16.. Haiz.. But e lady boss offer to do a reshoot for us.. But its still very disappointing..

 

[saggiegirl]

we are staying at our new hse (near my in-laws) since last yr after our ROM

....

last time we bought our hse at 28K COV coz the previous owner done up everything liao..so we just move in, buy furniture & appliances and basic hsehold items, do minor reno can stay liao...

[pekochan81]

Thanks gals! Hmm....seems like most of you gals wearing cheongsum for Tea instead.

ete> Guess am really limited for choices, coz cheongsum is out, KUA is actually not in my list. My previous ROM dress is close to what my jie-mei will be wearing. Gosh! Maybe I shld just change to casual & wear a matching jersey with my lao! Mmm...

Vicki> I've not gotten my AD day shoes. So if am really wearing KUA, then I got the headache of having to source for a dual purpose shoe liao. Arrgh!...coz actually am trying to get something, I can wear to work as well after the wedding! hahahahaha....Kill 3 birds with 1 stone mah

iris> Wow! 1 week ah....Think I must quickly send in for polish liao....tks gal

 

[babylina]

[tanp]

Manageable, as friends & relatives are either East, West or Northeast~~~
But has to arrange timing with folks, so abit mafan...

[felifeli]

morning all...

hmmm i ask all of you something... the roast pig groom side must give bride side the pig leg or hand ???

 

[babylina]

littlewoman> in 04, i got punggol at first too.. from BTO. only S$153K.. but after paying the S$2K and chose everything.. HDB called n say not many ppl buy.. so they not building all.. only certain blocks.. then the blk i chose not going to build lor.. then they gave me a choice to either take back my money n wait for next one or chose something from the remaining blks.. then remaining ones are all like 2nd floor, 4th floor.. we decided to wait lor.. we are happy to get Pinnacle now although its more expensive.. think its the location wise ba..

 

[lovingyou]

I see..

I guess the facilities and the transport do plays a part as well.. Will it be ready abt the same time as us?

 

[vicki]

cheer, ya lor silver quite easy to match.

Have also been to the 'tiong bahru roast pig' website but am wondering wat's the difference between Suckling Pig n Golden Piglet hah? Anyone nod?

Getting more n more excited as time goes by.. How i wish now can start taking leave.

pekochan, tink quite difficult to find one that can wear for wedding n work unless itz a simple design ba. If you haven buy ur wedding shoes, i suggest u go City Plaza see see walk walk first cos the last time i pop by saw quite alot of nice shoes but i've already bought mine from Tangs le or else i will buy from them..

 

[babylina]

kekeke... we have been waiting for 5 yrs le.. should be ready end of the yr ba.. *fingers cross* but it wun be in time for my wedding lor..

 

[mashi_mashi]

pekochan81,
me wearing kua. after much discussion wif my co ordinator. haha... i will b wearing ivory shoes for my AD. so if chg to kua also will wear tat lor. can match. juz c whether i got go find other shoes or nt. haha...

saw 1 pair very nice at jurong point. but too bad dun hv my size liao n the sales gal say not coming in new stock. so sad....

Vicki,
Where ur HTB stay? can order the roasted pig near his area. or ur area. will b more convenient. i forget to ask my bf on the roasted pig. will check wif him tis wkend.

felicia,
the groom side give the whole roasted pig to the bride. then bride side will return the front n the back to the groom, meaning bride side keep the middle body of the roasted pig.
then also give the groom a pants, wallet n belt (if cantonese) nt cantonese tink pants n angbao. i nt so sure. use a red paper to wrap n put in the middle of the roasted pig (replacing the middle of the body tat is taken by the bride side). then return all to the groom. tink also need to put 2 oranges in front of the pig...

 

[lovingyou]

Wow, that's a long wait.. But it shld be ready by next yr rite.. Dun be upset over it, think on the positive side; wun be so stressful to planning wedding and flat reno at the same time ya.

 

[vicki]

mashi, me n my hubby stay AMk area but he took a suite at a town area hotel for his side tea ceremony. Till now never heard ppl recommend or say that AMK got roasted pig leh.

 

[bluerosie]

littlewoman: envy leh can stay with ur parents after AD..heheh..
