cube cube> it's really gross... By the way, apple and cucumber juice is good for detox, might be good to try cleansing whatever disgusting things out...!
pearlypearl> Your appt at Loe & Behold went well yeah since you bought shoes
I think they must be nice... I bought a pair of shoes called Rebecca there for ROM... my AD shoes is a silver, crystal studded pair from Lucieno too! So coincidental

hahaha!! so many of us got the same brand of shoes from Lucieno! But i really searched through most of the major dept stores in Orchard, except for Robinsons (cos too far), only those I saw in Taka can make it!

Congrats darkchoco and xka...
Morning ladies.
Angelina: Like what Suzanna suggested, perhaps you might want to try calling your BS to check on the matter, they usually have a standby MUA to attend to the matter on behalf of any MUAs in case of any urgency matters / incidents.
Pearlypearl: Wow.. that is like ex.. But perhaps I might check it out too.. mus be a nice bling shoe..

LW> I see. I think I will hang my tea dress/kua at my place so that I can changed into them after my hb fetch me back. So can reduce some logistics. I think my hb will get bil to carry the bag as it might have some valuables. The only part that I can think of is the tea ceremony where we need a JM can help to wash the cup.
Guess I'll look for two JM so that at least they can keep each other accompany since all the guests are our relatives.
Umm.. do I need to start asking them now?

Ling> We are also waiting for the layout. How many pics did you selected? We also exchange some of our stuffs for pics as we didnt want those. But we kept the car as we don't drive.
Its good that your sis can be your JM, at least she's familiar with the relatives. And being married, she have 1st experience. Hee..
I think I'll try to get my girl friends to help me with it.

Littlewoman> Ya, I have never spend so much on shoes before! Anyway it's my wedding and it's a once in a lifetime event, so it's worth it lah!
Mine wedding shoes is call "Serene" and it can be found in Loe & Behold's website (http://www.loeandbehold.com.sg/bridal_classic.htm). As u can see, it is a very simple and classic design, so I bought the shoeclips to add alittle "bling" to it..

Angelina: Hmm.. have you have anyone in mind? Else, I might introduce you my friends or the MUA who did my PS? You aren't getting married on 5 Dec ya?
Shir: For my case, I can't coz my parents would prefer me to wear the Kua / tea dress before entering my maiden home after "chu jia".
They mentioned that it is a form of traditions. I suppose you can do it.. my HB and I started asking the Bros and JMs like far away back; kinda of like pre-empting them in one way or another.

Pearlypearl: Agree agree.. haha.. I told my HB when he bought his 2 pairs of shoes for the PS too.. which costs about S$200 plus. But I "bu she de" to get that ex for mine.. It is simple but yet elegant.. Looking through the website to see if I might be able to find anything from there too.. Thanks gal for sharing the weblink.
gd mornin ladies..its a tired morning for me...

Why all brides will get stress when the date is drawing near? I thought only I will feel that stress and even keep having bad(panick) dream about the wedding like I will dream of me forgetting to wear my wedding gown and marching in is about to start, damn horrible dream!! make me sad and sweat!! then dream of 50% of my guest arrive at 3pm+ (very funny actually) and the banquet manager got my ballroom theme totally wrong - all red when I opt for sweet theme! *Faint* I think I must be too stress n think too much about wedding until recently keep dreaming about wedding too.
Then last night even had a argument with my HTB because of the no. of tables issue. haiz... trying to please our parents too much until making ourselves headache.

oh yes, ask you ladies ya... for the cakes during "Guo Da Li", are u all getting the real cakes or buying vouchers instead?
my mum suggested buying vouchers so that we do not have to deliver the cakes to every relative... but I thought giving the real cake will look nicer and more sincere too.. can someone enlighten me? Thanks!

saggiegirl: try to "remind" them but dun push them ya.. I keep reminding Rachel when I was waiting for her list of the wines etc the other time as well.. Hmm.. dun sigh gal.. it is a big day; mus be happy ya.. cheer up.. smiley brides looks prettier.
Angelina: No problem, I will come back to you on my gf soon as well. Jus afraid that she might not be able to do it due to tireness after attending my AD on 5 Dec.. You might want to view some of my make-up pics on my FB.
You can try looking for it at City Hall or Raffles place, they sell nice notebooks, unique guestbooks etc.
Pearlypearl: for my case, my mum suggested to getting those traditional cakes from those traditional vendors. THink she mentioned something on Sembawang.
