Michie, ya usually mothers will buy some gold to give daughter as dowry, but not necessary to buy a lot even 1 gold chain is ok. Pj is given by groom side on gdl then our side need to return some back to groom side upon receipt. Not sure if i hv answered your questions
happy.gif
 
thanks coco... understand liao... hehe

wat do we need to prepare for the gdl (bride's side)? so confusing... need to get the stuff by this week so anything missed out can get them next week... i was told tt my hb & i are nt supposed to meet one another once after gdl... so now need to get everything done b4 tt... stressed!
 
michieyun> you can go to those GDL shops in chinatown. Just tell them the dialet group for u and ur HTB. The sales person will tell you what to get. Of course, do ask the rationale of buying those stuff. If u feel it is not necessary, you can tell them you don't want.

Eh.. i am not sure about the not supposed to meet after GDL. I only know cannot meet 1 day prior to the wedding date. You want to ask around first?
 
Michie, me too never come across the not supposed to meet after gdl rule, only heard the night before can't meet. For gdl, I only buy those v basic things like lamp, teapot set, bowl set, towel n 2 bottle of orange concentrate etc I skipped those pail set n sewing sets. So it depends on how strictly u want to follow. They hv those package thingy but not cheap so I just buy those stuff I think is necessary. But eventually we still spent a few hundreds getting all the stuff for two sides, the stickers, ang bao packets all v costly

How you all arrange the seating in the hotel? As I have 12 tables. Mix the groom and bride relatives or all my relatives (12 tables) sit in 1 side?
 
Ok. I tot of mixing them but my mum said y can't we take 1 side. Thanks coco n Amanda for ur reply. Then I think I will follow the same as u Gers
 
Hi, I have 13 bottles of red and white wine left over from my wedding just recently. 6 Red - Merlot, Canepa 2009 & 7 White - Sauvignon Blanc, 2008 originally priced at 300 dollars in total now going for 200 only. Grab them while stock lasts.
 
Coco- haha. Nvm let wish that the guests will boa more $$ in their angbao..lol
I went 3 places on monday. 5 more on Sunday.
 
hmm.... distribute the cakes to relatives lor. hehehe.. luckily for some, i sent cake vouchers instead cos not at home. mainly to v old senior relatives in the family.
 
mrng!

avatar82, I saw the pics on FB. Very nice! you really have put in alot of effort. I doubt i have that many things. haha. din even know that even shoes, clothes and undergarments are part of GDL. Nice job!
 
hahaha... shoes, clothes, undergarments were part of my dowry to put in luggage bag. Marry into a house need to wear new clothes right? hehehe...
 
Avatar87> Wow~ your GDL is very grand with lots of stuffs. =) For the new clothes, do we need to wash and bring over or don't wash just bring over?
 
ooo... ic ic.. i think if i buy more clothes, my HTB will 'kill' me le.. hahahaha... i hv a full 4 door wardrobe of clothes and over 30plus pairs of shoes le. :p
 
Christine: For my new clothes, i nv wash leh.. just bring over to new house then wash bah.

Amanda: haha.. i also have a few wardrobes full of clothes and shoes. But just buy a few new piece to add on. hehe...
 
looks like everyone's GDL over liao. anw looking for wine any recommendation.

i went down to a place recommended by fren but no tasting so we buy one bottle of wine recommended to try. so bland and tasteless.
sad.gif
dissappointed.
 
i think you can search multiply. there is someone call lovelylace. she sells corsages. How bout diy? just buy the materials from chinatown. That's what i did for mine jiemei.
 
avatar82> yah.. super quiet. how's ur preparation?

for me, everything simply goes wrong. i hv a fren whom i know for 20 yrs. she is supposed to be my jiemei and yet she told me that she cant make it for the wedding dinner due to K Pop concert. Is really an attack to me. sighz.. in the end, i told her i find someone else as jiemei. she can enjoy her concert.

then.. my natural family simply told me that they decided not to invite my natural mom's relatives and my dad's frens.

i don't know what's next will give me an attack.
 
Winspin> when ur AD? Most things settled liao?

For me, the only thing outstanding is the AD programme and briefing of helpers/vendors. (about 80% complete - need some finetuning)

Other than that, it's mainly the guest attendance. hehehe.. mine also not any better than yours. One helper admitted to hospital for surgery, not attending wedding. Quite a no of guests fly kite. Got a few say uncle/auntie or other relative pass away- cannot attend. Other excuses include got other wedding to attend, busy with work, wife give birth, holiday and lots more. At least got 20 to 30 pple fly kite?

Me and hubby now abit bo chap liao. Dun intend to get anymore pple to fill up the tables. cos run out of cards liao. hahahaha.. can't wait for it to be over. The only thing we looking forward is our 3 weeks honeymoon. haha...
 
tell me about it.
my wedding rental car called yesterday say my wedding car can't be used due to accident. lucky she tell me she replacing it but with a maroon jaguar. and its not in line with my morning theme. arghz.
 
i'm left with the guest list..doing up my signing pens. and my ring pillow.

ad programme got already but left a little fine tuning. and sian...my sis tell me i look haggard not radient. sighz.
 
maroon jaguar also not bad lah. hehehe... any additional charges? Yesterday I finished decorating my angpao box and guest pen. hehe.. today will start packing up the things to bring to hotel.
 


avatar82> my wedding date is on 23 oct. same as yours. there are 3 concerts on that day lor. my Guo da li is on 11 oct. other than that, the things that are not settled yet are: 1) table arrangement; 2) guest list, 3) pack bag to bring to hotel. Yes, i am not looking fwd to the actual wedding day. Am looking forward to the Krabi & Japan trip.

Valerene> yes... u are not alone. I also look haggard. imagine right after my mini honeymoon trip, i have to go to HK for a business trip. haha. i think i am going to be a superwoman soon. work is increasingly busy due one of my peer colleagues tendered resignation.
