my gown, couriered from taipei bridal shop just reached me last friday

it's gg to sit in my bedroom for another 3 weeks.. haa
but then.. the BS forgot to put the gown cover.. any idea wea i can get extreme long cloth cover?

 

[octo]

Charmaine> For our menu, we also selected teochew style for the steamed fish. But during food tasting, we noticed that the chinese mushroom may be quite saltish as it was immersed in the gravy with salted veg. Despite that, we still going for this style as it seems more special compared to the soya sauce style. And my inlaws are teochew. Have you go for your food tasting? You might want to try the dish out first.

LW> Wow.. got crying scene. Do you mean the bs had a script for you and hb to follow?

Greentwinkle> No idea where to get extreme long cloth cover, maybe can check with those laundry shop. Your gown must be real nice & special, 'fly' in from taiwan. Hee..

Can I check with you girls, about the wedding cards to colleagues? Im thinking of distributing all my cards this week. For those colleagues who told me that they need to check first previously and didnt get back to me, do I give them the cards?

 

[saggiegirl]

Shir> ok by this week all the cards should be out le

... for those colleagues who replied tentative previously, i send them 2nd call to confirm attendance... if OK, then i send them card...

 

[greentwinkle12]

Shir > think all our BS have nice gowns for us la. cos my BS in taipei and my PS also taken in taipei mah..

Finally got home after running outside for the whole day

Thanks everyone for your help

My pg tell me that he can come later for the wedding dinner to take the table shot but I'm not very happy with his attitude as he put it in a way that is my fault and doesnt feel apologetic. Still thinking should I change or not. Should I? Cos my main issue is table shot as my main PG is taking the rest.

This Sunday going to meet my hotel manager and BS to confirm the WG and EG. Also going to meet my makeup artise. *cross finger* that everything will turns out well.

Tomorrow is another day out to do wedding stuffs. Bought a page boy suit for my nephew but too big have to go exchange for other stuff as my mum decide to sew one for him herself :| Tomorrow still need to go chinatown do facial and buy more xi stickers. My GDL is next monday and my mum wants those big oranges but I cannot find
