(2009) Brides of year 2009
- Thread starter pringirl
- Start date
Any of you gals decided to go for pre-wedding shots, those non-bridal ones where the couple will not be wearing any gown or suit? Anyone knows if makeup will be provided if you signed up with those professional photographers or we have to get it done ourselves for such pre-wedding shots?

how much have you all allocated for BS?
actually, i was planning to use my own $$$ for BS and budgeted no more than 5k. But since housing is still so expensive, might not be a good idea to spend so much.
Besides, i don't know if is going to be just a Church wedding, followed by reception in Church itself. If this is the option we take, it means we have to cut down our number of guests by almost half. Otherwise, church wedding and reception in some other places.
Thus, i am not sure do i need an evening gown. Probably, we don't need the bridal car. In this case, also cannot decide to take a package or just go for ala carte.

Twinfairy> For us we know we want a BS Pkg at abt 3-4k. We did not save up any weding funds until recently. The good thing for us is that we have a long way to our AD for saving up. We each save up S$200 each per mth for BS and pic top-up also.
If you already have a date you can start going for BS shopping liao.
For my BS pkg they dun have bridal car. We will not be having actual day wedding dinner so evening gown will be rebate back cash to us or change to pic for our album also can. Our BS is very flexi one so not a problem for us. Along the way we still can change some things which we do not need.

hmm.. christy, is your BS My Bridal Room?
The last time we went to BOWS. We told those BS people we don't want this or that, they just top up the photo number. i don't think their photos looked nice. So quite redundant.
We started saving after 3 months we got together. That was like more than a year ago, yet, we don't think we have enough to cover from housing to wedding. Just the housing and renovation take up such a big chunk of our saving. : (

Twinfairy> Yap my BS is MY Bridal Room.
Hmmm personally I dun like going to wedding shows and I have not been to one. I feel that I cannot concentrate during the bridal show. So you mean My Bridal Room is at the BOWS show last time??? I also heard that those pple hard sell during wedding show and they also dun belong to the bridal shop one... part/timers.
Most important is you must feel comfortable with the BS and read lots of the forum b4 going down the BS. By reading things from the forum save you time going to the BS (wastful trip if you dun like it) PG also another factor. Hmmm I dun encourage to go BS too many times like 5-8 BS Shopping cause you will get confuse one.
Hmmm slowing lor... the more you hurry the more kan-chong you become. For wedding stuff... what no need just take out to save money.. like me no wedding dinner. I told my mom I dun want it and no money as for FH side FIL dun want... so we are lucky.
For house... dun do the whole house.... those extra bedroom do the flooring and paint the walls can liao. Next time have money than do. House electrical item no need to buy all it one go also.... if need than buy along the way. So you will not be cash tied.

Hi Des
Would you consider Cheong Sum? I have seen my friend wearing that for her tea ceremony. Not bad leh... Now I am confused over the culture things. Do we need to kneel down when serving tea to our elders? My HTB told me that we need to bow... Oh gosh.. can't imagine all the bowing I have to do on my AD... Arrrrgggghhhh...

Hi ladies
My AD is on 04 Apr 09. Confirmed last Friday. Wonder what I should do on that day. Kind of paranoid as I can't speak Korean. My dad was told that he has to lead me down the aisle to my FH. He is getting all the jitters now haha.. My mom will have to match into the wedding hall with my Future mother-in-law to light the white candles. Cannot understand why Korean prefer while color candles.. It's meant for the dead in Chinese culture. Haha... Anyway, still don't know what I should do for that day. I have booked a package with Santiago for only S$2588 nett.. PS on 05 September and ROM in Nov 08. My in-laws tailor made a Hanbok (Korean Traditional custome) for me as wedding gift. How to wear in Singapore? So funny.. I only return with FH to korea once a year. Not possible to wear it every time I go back mar.. Thought of wearing it for chinese new year.. My relatives sure drop dead from laughing.

Hiee BTBs, I'm back! Made an appointment with this shifu from Chinatown in early Aug. Hope he will be able to find a good date for us! Next up will be the booking of hotels!
christy - no no.. is not My Bridal Room at the BOWS. Some other shops located at Tanjong Pagar, i think.
Had a quick talk with bf just now. He will "push" his mum for wedding date. Meanwhile, just continue to save and look around for housing. As for the wedding, likely to be in Church and a small reception. Sweet and simple like what we had planned right from beginning.
Bf reminded me to live within our means and I hope I won't get carried away by all the wedding preps.

Mrs Wang, if you have 3k budget, there is a few places you can explore.
1)My Bridal Room - Expect top up as their additional photos are more ex as compare to other BS. My friend end up spending 5k.
2)The Aisle Bridal - Alot of beautiful gowns! Friendly staff and experience photographer.
3)Golden Horse Award at Tampines - Wide selection of gowns, but perhaps not my type/style
4)French Bridal - If you like grand gowns but i heard they are pushy.
5)Signoria - If you like fantasy photos, they have very good photoshop photos which brings you to fairyland
Hope it helps!
