Hi all, I'm also super short temper nowadays. Even my bf also very short temper Think both of us too stress liao.
We also no mood to work, wanted to prepare for my wedding instead. No choice, need the money so mus work.
Kv Tan-Teo, I can understand how u feel. I feel the same way too when there is a parents meeting session. Lucky mine cancelled. Already told my Mum that she will not meet up with my in-laws till wedding day cos they are all mad ppl. Can't stand them liao.

reine, don't care abt wat others say. Wat's most impt is ur hubby and u like it.
Anyway, it's ur wedding not theirs
KV, I also have no progress.Super sian as things r moving real slow.
Jascmy, same here. Met up wif my buddy. Don't know y end up crying in front of him. Mayb I'm too stressed.
Bubbly19, not gg to send invites during 7th month. My parents insisted that it's not good for the marriage so ok lor make them happy. My AD is on 21st Oct. So mayb I will send e-invites or sms to my friends/colleagues 1st. But GDL is definitely gg to be after 7th mth.

oh if anyone is looking for shoes still, can try vincci if you are in jb. i was in jb and got my pair of ps heels from there. just a pair of simple strappy metallic silver heels, RM55 only! hsbc card got extra 10% off! i figured no need to spend so much on PS heels coz they will get dirty/scratched, so dont wanna spend that much.
superfamous,
my food tasting is this weekend.
photoshoot done long ago, but don't know when will they send the real copy.
mashi, u got all your GDL things?
I hope to get the GDL things this week.
Actually not a lot right?
You know where to get Bedsheet with Yuan Yang?
Is it true that we can't do any wedding things during 7th month?

Saggiegirl> I have started to "chope" the closer friends in late Jun / early July.. Although they said that I am kancheong, but better to chope early
A couple of friends cannot confirm as they will be going for the Stan Chart run (42km), and based on experience, they are worried that they will be too tired to make it..
Angeliqueous> I think can start asking now as Dec is a school holiday, and some friends might start making plans for travel with their families.. I will confirm with them again before printing of cards as will need their addresses to send to as well
As for the final confirmation to hotel / restaurant, mine told me that I could final confirm the number of tables 3 working days before the AD..
Garfield> Now got offer? Until when? Did u sign up for their membership card? It entitles to 20% discount off normal price product (but must be more than RM 5)..

I will only be ordering cakes for GDL, praying and return to HTB side. Will not be giving to friends and relatives. Find it troublesome. Anyone doing the same as me?
I will be going JB for shopping and buy the balance of the GDL items (small items only) in 7th mth. No choice cos my HTB now overseas. He will only be back this Sat. He need to rest on Sun. Then weekdays have to work, then 7th mth liao. Very fast hor. Really no choice loh. Will try to do those not so impt wedding prep loh eg. buy small items for GDL, buy small items for love nest and making my wedding scrap poster. Lucky those impt ones are either done or can wait till after 7th mth.

i m sure it is not too early to ask... some of my frens still dare to say they might be away for tour even though i ask them verbally to remember to cme to my wedding... *grrrr*....
relatives wise... as my mum is the eldest, so all give face to my mum...
my dad relatives all in Msia/USA/Japan so not inviting them over
for us we will provide tentative attendance tomorrow when we meet up with coordinator, as they need the number to book the wedding favours etc ...
then final confirmation is 3 days before AD
we printed 300 inserts for our cards to cater for errors and margin for extras
Garfield> haha
for us the xi stickers is ok liao...just nice with a bit of extras

My GDL my parents wanted it simple (accordingly to my wishes) then at e background they very CUTE. go buy those little Xi stickets n paste on my belonging n those gifts. So touched. Only unhappiness arise when my Bf blurt out e tea set thingy which i didnt buy. (I kept asking if i need to n he kept saying his mum nv say anything. So Y on earth does they have to mention that on the GDL day??? My mum heard it n she felt so bad that she did insist that she buy me a set)

ling> Mine is Oct 11. I reckoned that most of us had our PS done sometime in June or even earlier, yet have not gotten back our pix or seen the layout as well. But if your BS or PG is confident, then no worries on that
I think we have discussed on the PS location previously. Basically you need to know what type of background you like i.e. buildings? shophouses? greenary or seaview etc.? From there, it's easier to narrow down to the exact locations. Alternatively, you can let your PG decide too if you're comfortable with that
