(2009) Brides of year 2009


Ashley, couldnt confirm..rendall said that it was too early and they are in the midst of coming up new designs for the deco and invites. the invitation cards look rather plain and normal..nothing fancy i must say. and they have got no themes! everything have to be individually chosen! was quite surprised by this..
 
mama ask me to buy the AC bedsheets last yr when we got our hse and bed
happy.gif
my bedsheets fr Aussino Paragon
happy.gif


then GDL shopping will be on 03/10 with mama lor
happy.gif
plus buying her outfit... two things settled within the day
happy.gif


we are not sleeping on the new mattress as it is meant for the wedding
happy.gif
so we sleep on mattress on the floor lor
happy.gif
since last yr liao ....
 
as for my PS i guess thats the trends for our BS.. i think for our photos it wouldnt take too long as we chose not to have any layout. Just one photo per page as the photographer does artistic shots and the photo speaks for itself. so any additional design etc will distract people from the pictures..
happy.gif


but i think the photographer painting etc using photoshop on our photos will take a while.he is also an artist,thus paints even trees in the background of the photos using photoshop..quite amazing.
 
there isnt a need to get those bedsheets with 'xi' or explicitly wedding type for an chuang right? cos those are quite hard to find and i dont think i will use those again..haha.. like just plain colours..
 
***yawn***
after lunch = sleepy
haha

halo ladies. toking abt GDL stuffs? I haven buy any yet, but i did get a set of bedsheets, and its grey...hahaha...and when my bf's sis knew about it, she nearly fainted...she say aiyo this n aiyo that...very dam funny :P

so, we went to aussino to c c look look, but the wedding design one superbly ex (to me), so walked out empty handed...mayb when im getting the GDL stuffs then buy together...

please put wateva you know about what stuffs needed in the FB topics. even if its only 1 or 2 tings. (^.^)
 
Erin> haha
happy.gif
there is not an absolute need to get the xi bedsheets lor
happy.gif


plain colors are fine of coz
happy.gif
that is what i gathered from the elders .....
 
Wow.. there are so many posts just during a lunch break? keke.. How's lunch?
happy.gif


Charmaine: I am refering to the icons in the inserts..
happy.gif
Did you include them in your inserts?
happy.gif
How much did you pay for your medicure in total?
happy.gif


I think Aussino has these cutie wedding bedsheets, saw them while shopping, but I didn't get it, thinking that perhaps I might want to wait for their new designs nearing to the AD?
happy.gif


Ling: My mum told me that women's side is the one who is getting all those things.. told my mum that I dun want, which she agrees, as no place to place them in the house.. But I wonder how should I persuade my in-laws? hmm.. perhaps shall leave it to my HB? keke..

What I heard for "an chuang" is that a boy mus roll across the bed... so that we will bear a son ba? Kinda of old saying. My mum asked my bro to sleep on the bed on the eve before my AD..
happy.gif
As for my situation, think what I will do is I might consider getting a new mattress or simply do it with a new bedsheet? Shall see what my mum say..
happy.gif
 
mashi, i'm afraid there will be more than 1 table of guest didn't turn up, so i am considering to use confirm no. of tables + 2 reserves as my total predicted no. of tables I've now. like now I calculate will have 35 tables, so am thinking to confirm 33 tables + 2 R or 32 + 2R because i predict plus minus, should have 1 table ppl didn't turn up?

But what if that day then know 1 table of ppl didn't turn up but these ppl are from different tables then how am I going to save that 1 table? Anybody have any idea how to go about tackling this problem?
 
saggiegirl> thanks! was hoping that i can escape getting those very wedding bedsheets..hee..
happy.gif


Littlewoman> sure! but it will be quite a long wait..PS only on 12th oct..hee..
happy.gif


Hope everyone had a great lunch!
 
Ling > Aussino new bedsheet for wedding is out. I saw it last week at parkway. In sep it is the traditional design. In march it is the more western style.

cube cube > Aussino wedding bedsheet is cheap. Think 26 or so. It is the quilt cover that is pricy, appx $70-80 if not mistaken.

icecoolmilo > Welcome here! Which bridal you choosen?

littlewoman > Yah, hubby topup $10 for a carton, the tradition bride & groom holding a "Xi" I choosen the short landscape card. Which 1 you choosen? Where to see erin photo?
For aussino wedding bedsheet they only lauch twice a year. You can consider to go down & see. =)
Total for me medi & pedi with nail art is $65. It is cheap cause i took up a class medi and pedi package with them last yr. The $30 nail art with crystal and pearl is after much bargain then they deal @ $30. Initally they quoted me $60. I got a shock....
 
halo charmaine & littlewoman: I signed with the aisle.. not super excited yet. maybe dec then will feel the stress. lol.. but i dun like banquets.
sad.gif
but doing it to please the folks as well.
 
Erin> hahaha
happy.gif
nowadays ppl dun really go for the xi bedsheets unless u managed to find ba
happy.gif
but of coz 99.9999% of couples choose a nice color for the bridal bed sheets
happy.gif


littlewoman> lunch is fine
happy.gif
i had korean tofu soup for lunch ....simple and not too oily...

icecoolmilo> cute nick & welcome
happy.gif
 
I quite like it. LOL
Once a life time experience.
My colleague told me initially she also do it to please the folk but she enjoyed herself during the banquet, so she told me must have.
happy.gif
 
Charmaine: are you a Hilton Bride too?
happy.gif
Can't remember at times.. sorry gal..
happy.gif
I have chosen the overlaying ivory hearts card.
happy.gif
Had include both icons, one on each side of the card.
happy.gif
Is rather cheap, how much is the total package and for how many medicure/pedicure?
happy.gif
Haha.. We can only see after Erin uploaded on FB.. But the way she describes... haha.. I am more excited than her?
happy.gif
Thanks gal.. will take a look in Aussino.. is it ex for new designs?

icecoolmilo: you will feel more excited after your PS, more looking fwd to the selection of your wedding photos etc..
happy.gif


Saggiegirl: I had heavy lunch.. think my HB is fattening me up instead of helping me to lose weight.. keke.. Gonna to skip dinner tonight..
happy.gif
 
hehe.. thanks saggie. anyways.. anyone got pics to share with me. My PS gonna be end oct.. rush to get it out but not gonna make it too chim. just a simple album will do. with not much digital design. n those that only shoot my background i wont choose. lol.. the aussino sheets are nice but the quilt cover so ex..89.90 is ex (to me).. lol. anyone got pics share with me?

icecoolmilo> welcome welcome..

charmaine> yalor.. at first i agreed to do the dinner jus to pleae the folks.. but now.. im getting excited as the date comes closer n closer.. kekeke
 
littlewomen > Price remain the same for aussino.
Mine is @ holiday inn parkview. =)
Final fitting photo is on my multiply. http://lovedardar.multiply.com
My medi package is $250 for 6 times. Opps think i quoted wrong amt, my total medi and pedi + french & crystal cost almost $72.
Pricy very simple design but it does look bling that's all. I like the color matching for my medi.

Btw, anyone here from Digio Bridal.
Can we take our own photo during ps?
I asking my cousin on vacation to go with me to help me dress up and on the way try to takes some pics.
So excited. Can't wait for the album to be ready. LOL
 
hi angelina.. haha.. i tell u ah..initially was abt 12 tables..then became 14, then 15, 16, 17, 18, 19... now hitting 20.. anyways.. juz abit of background. i initially planning to hold the wedding in june/july next yr.. then my dad didnt like the idea of the tiger yr.. so zooom forward to dec 09!!! Imagine looking for a restaurant/hotel 4 mths b4 the actual day. Gowns we bought from Australia in July.. tot keep for 1 yr. haha.. anyway, i duno why am I so free now? my cards are ready for collection next week. GDL things wait for him to come back and buy.. photoshoot oso can't do yet. gowns brought for alteration already. shoes oso came free with my gowns, no need to buy. facial oso started doing. guests list 99% done. What else is there to do? Why am I so free now..?
 
Wow i haven start on the GDL stuffs too. Had been shoes shopping though. Nvr thought that its so difficult to get a pair of nice silver heels with my size. For the past few weekends, i went to Aldo, pedro, Tangs... when i saw a pair and asked for the size, its always always always the same reply..."sorry we dont have size 5 anymore" Argh~ i wanna faint! Thinking of going Essex walk this Friday when i drop by bridal veil for my 2nd fitting. Hopefully i can get one.
As for bedsheets, i am thinking of going robinsons to take a look, one of my friends told me that they have rather nice looking ones over there. =)
 
Charmaine: the price is rather reasonable.. Did I mention how "crazy" I was during my studio shoot? haha.. I had a change of 5 sets of fake nails?
 
ashley: almost the same for me.. can see how disappointed I was when the lady tells me this is the last pair, or either the heels was too high for me.. i can't even stand straight, how to even walk with the pair of high heels?
 
Erin > Fret not! i don't like the invites too. And the worse is, my htb actually thinks that its better than some other places alr. zzz! Can you imagine that we still have to pay for the inserts for such not nice invites? Haha! As for the deco, ya sharon told me sometime ago that they do not go for themes, but i've seen some photos on the deco flowers and all, its really nice, just have a colour scheme in mind, it will be fine. =)
 
littlewomen > You got time to change 5 set of nails? My medi and pedi simple so felt pricy. LOL. From far nice. From near, finishing soso. Did ps manage to take yr hand nails?

icecoolmilo > i'm quite free too. Didn't do much about my wedding. LOL. We didn't even start my guest list, got the template that's all. Does my budgetting.

Just confirmed my jie mei last evening. Cause i wanna get them their dresses in Taiwan. Btw, is our own sister also part of jie mei?
 
littlewomen > Try lucino. I usually cannot stable in high heels cause most of the times i wear flat. I really find their shoes very stable and comfortable. I saw it @ metro thou i bought my rom shoes also lucino last yr in taka but i do not see taka carrying the bling bling range anymore. =) Very temptered to get 1 more shoes from taiwan for ad.

Ashley > Which shop you went. Nothing caught yr eyes? Personally i feel then do not have to spend so much on invite. My buddy does her invite $2.50 excluding printing. Endup who will keep her invite man?
 
Charmaine> my own sister is part of my jie mei team.. i even got my sis in law (single) to be part of my jie mei.. i guess as long as there isnt any objections between the old folks i guess it ok..

hubby jus called restaurant, and now jus wanna give name to them so they can print the inserts and wan us to go down n confirm the menu n details..
 
Charmaine: In a way, as I have my HB's and MUA's help on this.. esp my MUA.. she was super nice.. while doing my hair, i remove my nails at a fast speed and they help me to phaste on it.. everyone on the "set" teased that I was super vain..
happy.gif
Yes, my photographer did try, had done a closeup for the one that I wore for my MTM WG..
happy.gif
The effects turned out to be rather nice..
happy.gif


I dun have a sis.. includes my cousins as my jie meis..
happy.gif
 
Charmaine: lucino? Where are they located?
happy.gif
I only got 1 pair for my PS.. thinking of getting another pair for my AD.
happy.gif


Angelina: that was what I wanted to do initally, changed my mind and my sis-in-law helps me out as emcee instead.
happy.gif
 
littlewoman> wow! u are amazing! change so many sets of nails!!

Ashley> ya man! i really hope they come up with nicer invitation cards!! so we'll have to wait till the newer designs come out! rendall told me that it will be within this week.. so i'll bug him to send me the pics and i'll send them to you..
happy.gif
good luck with your shoe shopping!

i'm not going to get more shoes for the wedding, am just going to use my prev ROM ones and when tangs was having sale, i've already bought 2 pairs (one satin ivory and the other black). more worried about the height of the heels..cos i'm not supposed to be wearing high heels for long due to back injury.
sad.gif
really envy all of you who can wear sky high heels during wedding!
 
Erin: I guess, I wanted to be special for the shoot? My coordinator and the rest kinda of go along with me, thus find them very nice in a way.
happy.gif


Same here,I can't walk properly or balance myself well with too high heels... how nice if we can wear sneakers? keke..
 
littlewomen > I saw their bling bling shoes @ Metro Paragon. I'm not sure where else have it.

Angelina > Me too haven't gotten my emcee.

Erin > My ankle is injured. I can't wear heels for long too. Painful. But just to got to endure for AD i guess.
 

haiz.. i know the restaurant got provide.. but i dun think i wanna use theirs...

littlewoman> power man.. u can still change so many sets of nails ah..
