LW> I also think you're lucky to get such deals. Hee.. so they will doll you up for the filming (just like PS)? Hee.. enjoy the filming and don't get too tense up.
Saggie> hee.. don't worry, think your planning is one of the few best one around here. Hee.. I just went to look at those Oct & Nov threads. Some of the brides actually missed the time that they are preparing for the wedding. Guess we'll take it easy and slowly to enjoy the process of doing up the wedding, instead of rushing all through. Hee..
Charmaine> I think we probably will go through the GDL list this week and get the stuff this weekend. My GDL on the 5th of Dec. When is yours? Should be quite close. (by the way, I kept forgetting to trf the $ to your account, will do it tonight.)

akino> the last time when i was an emcee to my fren cum uni classmate, he gave me $68
... but there again, the amount of angpao does not really matter
it is a token of goodwill & appreciation that matters to both sides

ah blur & cheenapork > my corsages ready for collection.. Are yours ready?
Good Morning ladies..
Ling> Waa.. we have the same GDL date. We just went to buy the sdj set from Poh Heng last night. Hee.. so far only bought the 50% pork can, ordered cake and the sdj. What about you? Finish your list already?
Charmaine> We picked a weekend, so my parents can go and deliver the cakes in the afternoon. Think higher chances of the relatives at home to receive the cake on a weekend. Hee.. you might want to consider 19th. We went down to the bs over the wkend, pmed you the updates.
Akino> For us, we engaged a emcee for the dinner. So guess paying the fee is ok already. But I am wondering how much to bao for those juniors (my younger cousins) during tea ceremony. What is the market rate for these AB? I wasn't expecting them until my mum told me over the wkends that her brothers (my uncles) told her that must drink tea one.

littlewoman> if u pronounce 5 in chinese, it is "wu"...may mean "nil", "none"
Saggie> Hee.. my mum also requested for 28cans. We went to get it ourselves, instead of my inlaws go and get. hee.. we really slowly enjoying the process, we buy some when we go out shopping. Til date, the cans at home stands at around 16cans. So need to get another 14cans more cause on AD, think my mum want 2 cans to be bring over. Hee..
Just counted.. maybe around 18cousins. My mum told me that the response abit overwhelming cause she also not expecting all to turn up initially. But when she called to check over the wkends, everyone is very on, probably cause Im the youngest granddaughter on my paternal side and marrying off from the 'main house' (my ah-gong house).

Shir > Still waiting for BS layout. My mummy has bought SDJ for me last sunday at Poh Heng too = )
