i informed my close friends already...even told some of them to come early to help mi with various tasks...lol...come to think of it...i informed all my friends who i'm inviting already...

my colleagues all know already as well...

mine is on hari raya...scared they go overseas over long weekend mar...n it's a popular weekend to get married...2 of my friends have friends getting married on 21 sep also...lucky never clash so far...
 
ic... think i better start informing... i only inform close frens and relatives... like when talking i will bring it up...
 
Gal.. Preliminary schedule

8.30am gate crash
10am reach church
11am Mass
12pm Lunch
2pm to groom house
2.30pm tea ceremony
3.30pm to bride's house
4.30pm to Hotel (brides house only my parents for tea ceremony)
5pm reach hotel, make up everything
6.30pm guests arrive

my one super rush but bo bian, HTB relatives from Malaysia. FIL requested tea ceremony to be in the afternoon. So all squeeze in the afternoon.
 
better to inform early...then remind again closer to the date...like abt june...no harm remind abit more lar...if they ask how come remind so many times u can jokingly say they r important guests mar...must ensure they remember n attend...
 
it's always rush when there's church involved...hardly have time to breathe...mine abit rush cos of the ROM start by 6.30pm...lucky we stay nearby abt 5 min drive...save time there...
 
mi vg told mi he got tis couple who even put their menu price inside coz they have those 5-course western meal..scare pple tot its cheap...haha...

ani alternative wae to let guests koe tat e food is NOT cheap??
 
gal.. yup mine is church wedding.. but me not chinese.. so mine will be a very different schedule lor! mine is wedding mass at 3pm.. my HTB will see me 1st time dat day only when i walk down the church aisle.. after wedding rest for a while, take photos etc.. den evenin proceed for dinner

Wedding_AD_schedule-658334.xls (31.2 k)</td></tr></table></center>
 
ya lor i also scare... cos my church wedding in the morning.. start at 0930 so the tea ceremony part will be very rushed...

I'm taking 20yrs loan coz the HDB interest is super high..amount to 5-digits.
 
xka,
Funan no Coffeeclub. Got TCC, Pasta Mania, Subway, Delifrance, Swensen's, McD, KFC, Qi Ji nasi lemak, foodcourt and some restaurants.
 
hey desjO! How much did u pay for Yen? It's like S$1.66 for 100 Yen today. jus wanna check if it's increasing or decreasing...

u all really capable, able to repay ur housing loan in a short term. I just maxed it out, even if i were to shorten the loan tenor, I cant afford the monthly instalment.

Yup! Now saving for renovation - the next big ticket item! But my house will be ready in move-in condition. that makes saving determination low. haha. only need to get the necessities like bed and electronics. the rest like feature wall can do with/without, depending how much money we have saved when the time comes :P
 
Hi Pamelia,

Welcome!!! My AD photographer is a freelance guy &amp; he charges $750... cheapest I can find &amp; recommended by friends =) Let me know if you need the contact!
 
damn shag. just came back from gown selecting. chose 3 gowns. 1 wedding gown, 1 evening another outdoor. but took me 4 hours to choose all. OMG!!! i gotta start execrising.
 
i am also having a church wedding

9am: Wedding mass, husband would see me first time when i walk down the aisle
10am-10.45am:Reception
11.30am: to reach groom house
2pm: to bride's house
3.30pm:to hotel
4pm-5.30pm: rest
6.30pm: start dinner

everything not confirmed yet. still thinking whether want to add visiting our rented apartment in or not. is it neccessary to visit the couple's own house?
my house not ready so renting some apartment first.
 
looks like no gatecrashing lor...so far those weddings that i attended with church still have gate crash in morning...church in afternoon...

15thMay can start dinner at 6.30pm when you touch up make up at 5.30pm? seems like u spend long time at groom's place...45 min reception might be too short...
 
Hi desjo &amp; hui

Me &amp; my hubby decided to get off-peaked car, so either have a car or tour... cant have both, cos both need money... Have to see the COE price again, cos if the COE maintain ard $4k den can forgo the idea...

hmm...if u were to bring in your own fountain, who's going to jaga for you?? As in replenish e fruits, e chocolate, e sticks, etc?? beta to check wif your hotel if they can accomodate your requests ma...if can, then start to source...n u definitely need to sign indemnity form...
