Hi tricia,
Hey we're having our banquet at the same restaurant! But mine is one day after yours.
I think sherry meant guo da li only? Most people deliver their wedding cards at least a few weeks before their AD.

Haha, can see that we are getting excited and nervous as we approach our Photoshoots and BIG DAY! We are less than 6 months ago now!
Sabine-I hope you read this before your PS tomorrow. Don't worry about not knowing how to pose and smile, am SURE that your photographer will make you to be the MOST BEAUTIFUL and PHOTOGENIC bride!!!
)) I was told to bring a pair of track shoes or sneakers so that you will not dirty/ruin your heels. Remember that okie. Will cross my fingers for fantastic weather!!
Glympse - I did not know about the NO FACIAL rule one month before! Thanks for the tip.
HPC - It should be blazing hot in Perth in Jan so you should be able to even out your tan lines;-) So lucky that you are able to squeeze in a trip before April.
Janine - Hey, dun be stressed! No worries, 3 weeks is definitely enough time to restore your skin to perfection. Do you usually use anything to calm down your pimples? Toothpaste works for me(cheap and effective).
As for me, am trying to be more diligent in my facials. Just did my hair (trim and colour) last week and then i will leave my skin alone as per Glympse's suggestion.
Since we are all stressed in one way or another, let's share the single (or several) thing about wedding planning that has been frustrating you..i will start first - Photographer!!! I have been interviewing photographers; I want him cheap and good la!

Hi all, my PS is just 2 weeks later.
Sabine, dun worry too much. Relax and sleep early today. Avoid drinking water 2 hours before you sleep.
PK- I know of a PG that costs $880 for AD shooting. I also did a lot of homework on PG & VG. But in the end, took from my bridal shop instead.

Sabine - just remember, your HTB is marrying you for who you are, just as you are
so just relax, have fun, ENJOY the process, ENJOY being lovey dovey with HTB in front of the camera, and don't worry too much about anything else ya? The radiance of being in love is enough to make any photo look good
)) All the best!
As for frustrations .... haha nothing super major yet la. My older bro's going to be my preshoot PG and AD VG, and his good friend (whom I know as well) is my AD PG. I made the choice knowing that artistically speaking, I may not get the best shots, but what's impt to me is that I'm comfy with the PG and VG, and somehow it's more meaningful when the special moments are captured by someone close to us

desjo, i saw ur post on the wines. Hubby and I are interested in B@r works. However, we're going down to Carrefour to take a look first, then decide if we are really getting from Carrefour. Else, we'll get from B@r works.
And as for PIL's birthday. Since dating, I have been having birthday dinners with them. These 2 years, I bought little gifts for MIL, but not for PIL. Female easier to buy la. So to me, it's considered the norm. Actually once married, we must also give PIL monthly allowance de, same goes for your hubby, he must give ur parents monthly allowance too.
The reason why I order cakes is because I want to choose what I like, instead of leaving to PIL to choose. I'll choose and order and then they pay lo.
celine... I just MTM my mom's evening gown in BKK. Cost about $130 for a long evening gown. Considered cheap to me! So one down! Now only left her morning wear. Maybe get her to wear some cheongsum! Haha...
Sharon... enjoy your PS! You sure love it! I am still thinking of having another one! Haha... my hubby is so gonna kill me! But he says 10 years anniversary la!
My cards still pending printing la...
hui... where to see? I wanna see too.

Hi PK,
Yes, the Perth trip is with my HTB's dad and his brother. He is taking part in a triathlon there and we are going there to support. So it's important to go, and at the same time even out tan, but also take care not to over-tan.
No major frustration so far...Just learning how to accept HTB's perspective on certain things, like what's more important in the wedding plans, money matters and all. Am learning to accept and communicate. When there are different views, its easy to have tension but so far, we have been very intentional about talking about it and dealing with issues, so I guess its good to confront them then sweep under carpet and pretend or suppress.
It's only the beginning of the journey and we want to be mindful that we better start right lah...

But forgot to take alook at their EG as that is more diffcult to choose. Maybe we will see each other that next time we go SWC =)

hi desjO,
I ordered the cakes on my own cos i like to choose my cakes. Anyway the cakes are for my relatives so i choose. My hubby just pass me the money.
My hubby and i are hokkien but I dint know got the xi bing. We just went ahead to order the cakes.
As for parents in law birthday and parents birthday. Before we are married whether customary or ROM, we already practice the habit of celebrating with them and giving them presents every year. In fact, our sibling's birthdays we also buy presents for them.
But unlike Grace, I will not practice that of giving allowances to my in laws. I do not see the need. I will continue to give to my own parents and my hubby will give his share to his own parents. Both of us set aside min 20% out of the total salary to them. Unless I am not working, then my hubby might help to give some allowances to my parents. I felt I dont want to make it a habit for my in laws to expect me to give money to them as their son already did so. BTW, I am not staying with them so I dun see why i need to give. But I will give them presents and gifts and buy food and snacks up whenever I visit them. Chinese new year we will give a big angbao to our parents and parents in law. That is our duty tats all.
I got my wines from carrefour also.

Hi PK, thanks for the tip... i decided to stay away from facials for the time being... =)
I guess so far the only frustration would be time management... with busy work schedule, flat renovation, wedding planning, etc etc...
But I'm glad HTB is by my side all the while helping out with lots of stuff. I think all this has helped us grow closer even more! Communication is something we are learning from all these wedding planning...
