wah biang

inviting them is also their honour as much as it is ours.

i think if it's me, i will just take it they not coming, don't even want to chase them if they give such lame answers. -_-

when u give out the cards other colleagues will sure ask why they don't have...that time MORE paiseh. LOL!

 

[chili_padi11]

mayshalws - Selected but havent see the layout. No, cos we went down to see the soft copies not the printed out copy. If not, i will try to re- arranged, cos they dont know each other so very hard to put all together...
Really dont know, will give them another 4 - 5days to call me, if not, dont blame me (I m kind of being forced to do)

RSVP - almost 90% doned. Left with my parent's side (My daddy still very lazy to inform them)

JM & Emcee - got problem. Seeking helps from one gf but she really tied up with work, hopefully either one can give me good news...

*still thinking whether to invite that MONSTER! hahaha

Havent do painting for hte rooms... havent clear my things & my Hubby's... new clothings also havent buy... left with less than 5 weeks

*ps BTBs - remember to take care of health

jenny, ya MIA.. sms them oso no reply type lor.. haha..anyway i ask my hubby to wait till nxt week then strike them off the list.

finally i push my mum to decide the number of boxes of Xi bing and get her to give up the idea of inviting all those relatives to my hse to "enjoy" buffet on my GDL.
so now she only ask for 10 boxes! woohoo..* hope no more changes*

Ges, u gona rush them a bit on ut layout le..

the seating arrangement is a bit hard lah.. if its couple couple still easier.. can just put all diff couples in a table? hee..

 

[smile_lynn]

ohya, how u all arrange the seating for both parents?? Izzit both parents + groom n bride must be same table?? or groom n bride only same table wf groom's parents??

 

[loewe79]

Kris, our side will be groom + bride and groom's parents + relatives.
my parents will be seated on another VIP table with my relatives.

 

[mayshalws]

kris: my seating arrangement is same with loeve

 

[smile_lynn]

Loewe & mayshalws,

Tx alots. Cos the culture here and my hometown is diff lor :>

 

[mayshalws]

kris: agreed..my hometown reception both parents will sit at the VIP table together but s'pore reception not..

 

[pinktini]

for me... my parents, inlaws, me & hubby at 1 VIP table. the bridal table, my inlaws say, let my side take to fill with our relatives.

i went for trial makeup ytd, very very very happy with the looks. i'll be changing a 2nd hairstyle for the 2nd march-in, cos the MUA say the styles of my dress very different, will look better if i change.

 

[smile_lynn]

Do u have to pay extra for 2nd hairstyle??

 

[clovergan]

kris: mine is same as loewe & mayshalws

jenny: nice.. yea.. u have to pay extra? my MUA will leave once she does the make up.. so dont think i have seconf hairstyle

 

[pinktini]

ya i need to pay extra $150. but i really like the 2nd hairstyle she did for me. its totally different feel from the 1st march-in style, so more willing to pay.

I almost quarrel with him yesterday over the pants.. my mum found a few pants that he gt but all light colors..

so we ask him to get black color one to match the jacket.. he tell mi dun need black mah.. nite time cant see anyway..
I tell him "since cant see then dun nd to make lor, anyhow wear lo!"

 

[tingting1000]

Just to share, during preparation, there are definitely lots of small small arguments . Dont be affected. Solved them and prepare for your big day!

[mayshalws]

loewe: well..ask your mom to inform your dad all dad's jacket are in black colour..don't have other colour choices expect sizes..

 

[loewe79]

i dun care liao.. let him be.

 

[tingting1000]

Loewe, nvm la. jus let him be.

 

[loewe79]

ya lor.. no energy to bother abt him liao..

How's preparation so far?

 

[mayshalws]

now headache with seating arrangement and i try to finish up the AD schedule before the meet up..coming this sun will be my GDL so will back to hometown this friday

 

[loewe79]

mayshalws, seating arrangement is a challenge..haha
Im done with mine cos mostly colleagues and ex colleagues.
Those "standalone" friends will be my jie meis..so they will get to know each other as well..easier to arrange.

My relatives side.. i let my mum go n arrange..i just tell her the table numbers tat are arranged for relatives to sit

 

[pinktini]

babes, wat songs are u all using for 1st dish presentation?

 

[loewe79]

jenny, i havent decide on that leh.. still waiting for my hubby to get the CD and choose the songs! ( he is soo slow ! and complain tat Im kan jiong *angry*)
so now.. no march-in song, no 1st dish song

sobz.

 

[mayshalws]

loewe: the seating arrangement started from hubby and he's said headache..i let him finish the preliminary den i go through and check..haha..clever hor..

1st dish presentation itz mean the 1st march in song ??

 

[pinktini]

ya it suddenly hit me the countdown is getting closer lehhh... and realised i haven't do my MONTAGE!! jiu ming arh. and have to settle song list. i so far only settled my church march in and banquet 1st march in.

 

[mayshalws]

loewe: i'm not buying any CD..will borrow from frens..

 

[pinktini]

mayshalws: first dish is when u're alr seated aft march in, and they bring out the first dish in the menu. most dinners i go to, they darken the lights and the servers all bring out together and present.

 

[mayshalws]

talking abt montage..my VG still doing on..not sure when can preview..will chase him after i back from hometown..

my childhood montage song is 'nothing gonna change my love for you' and bridal PS song is '结婚进行曲'. morning express still thinking..
how abt your gals ??

 

[mayshalws]

jenny: ic..ic..understand now..but i'm not sure if my hotel got provide the dish presentation or not le..maybe the server just come in and serve..

 

[loewe79]

mayshalws , we didnt chk with our friends for the CD.. i let him settle..since most of the things are done by mi liao.. heee

even his seating arrangement for his friends is done by mi lor.. n he look thru ..-_-""

jenny, the montage ar.. i saw mine from PG liao .. simple until.. not impressed at all..but now need to do some editing on the pixs.. so waiting for him to edit again

 

[mayshalws]

we divide the job..he do the seating arrangement, i look thru..but i do the AD schedule and he look thru..getting freebies or promo..i will do the talking cos he said woman can get thing easily while agreement he'll go settle..but i decide all the songs for the wedding use later as he's no nothing abt music..
if ask me handle all..i'll going mad liao..haha..

 

[loewe79]

mayshalws, tats y Im getting soo stressful now.. ask him to go n settle something ar. need to drag n drag..n kp saying Im kan jiong lor..

so instead of waiting for him.. i do at my end 1st.. i will feel more at ease.
wait for him ar.. jia lat lor..

 

[mayshalws]

haiz..sometimes man really can understand us..hubby never say i kan cheong but use to ask me don't stress up, work can easily done..
in my heart say 'easy for you to say difficult for me to do'

 

[loewe79]

mayshalws, ya lor.. Im those kind,i wan to get it done asap as long as its within my control lor.
Get it done then can relax liao mah..
they just dun get it..

 

[pinktini]

i agree with u all. i rather get things done asap than wait until last min. at least if anything goes wrong, i can still rectify it now.

 

[flyingstar]

oh dear, i'm totally slacking now.

no montage yet also. lazy to make.
and my jiemei pull out le, coz chun chun on my AD she got flight overseas due to work. and so happens she is my emcee too so double headache.

sian. whole morning scrambling around thinking how to solve this problem...now no mood to think of other stuffs sia!

thinking to make do with 3 jiemeis but is it very little?
