Hello ladies, I am a December 2010 Bride-to-Be as well. My wedding date is 17th Dec 2010. I'll be doing my pre-wedding shoot in Australia. Now I am in the search of bridesmaids' dresses. I'm having great fun planning for my wedding

Lymo > welcome! Will update your details into the table soon!

Mimichan > welcome too! I suppose Australia has more stuff for weddings at a cheaper price? or more variety.
Great to know that you are having fun.
happy.gif

For me, I'm always worrying!
sad.gif

Let me know your details too then I can update the table, if you are comfy, of cos.

Thank you, simplyme
happy.gif

Yeah I think Australia has lots of nice things for wedding, and the scenery is magnificent. I was proposed there so it's nice to take our pre-wedding shoot there, I'm quite excited.
Your wedding is on 18th! just one day after mine. What other preparations are you left with? I'm left with lots... not worried/stressed yet, but I think I need to speed up my prep.
Shangri-La is very nice, good choice.

my details -
Actual Day: 17th Dec
Banquet Venue: Tanglin Club
Bridal Studio: Silhouette
Photographer: Lightedpixels
Videographer: Substancefilms
ROM: 17th Dec (same day)
ROM venue: Church
Lovenest: Tampines

I need to do lots of preparations myself as I'm not using hotel, there's no "package". Need to do my own invitations, wedding cake, flowers, etc. but I'm enjoying them so far.

Hey MiMiChan which part of Aussie will u be taking ur pre-wedding shoot? so envy~~! My htb also proposed in Aussie.. where we meet =)

Hello, Celine, I'm going to Perth for the shoot. I was deciding between Bali and Perth, but my photographer said that Perth's lighting is slightly better than Bali. I've never been to Bali so I didn't mind either.. will be going to Bali for one of my hens' party!

Cool, which part of Australia did your fiancé proposed to you? I was visiting my fiancé in Perth, in 2008 when he was having his overseas training for work. He proposed to me on our anniversary day, it was a surprise..

Is everyone doing hen's party too?

Hey Mimichan, my fiancé n I studied in Brisbane, Queensland few years back. On my last visit to Brisbane for my sis graduation, he went there secretly to propose
happy.gif
yea, I think Perth can b nice too! Saw many couples gg there for shoot:D

Btw, I went Krabi Phuket for my pre wedding shoot, the island is really nice :D

I'm not very sure any hen's party.. Are we the one organizing or our bridesmaid? Abit blur in this ..
 

mimichan

Member
Hi Celine, Brisbane is nice too! Congrats
happy.gif
My fiancé was there for training too, after his Perth phase. Too bad I couldn't visit.

Ohh Krabi should be really pretty.

Hen's Night is supposed to be organized by the bridesmaids and other female friends (and/or Jiemeis). some of my gfs did it just for a night, but my sis & cousins are organizing a long-weekend trip for me in Bali. I think we're going to eat there like mad. Hopefully not much sleezy stuff...
 

rivenwood

Member
hi mimi, yea im doing hen's party too or rather some of jiemeis are organising a weekend trip to batam. Im hoping there won't be too much sleazy stuffs. Keeping fingers crossed.
 

mimichan

Member
Hi Rivenwood, oh cool I've never been to Batam, let me know how your hens went
happy.gif

When is your hens?
Yeah, hope there will be no sleazy games. your wedding is one day after mine too, 18th is such a hot day it seems.

Mimi, Haha the jiemei schedule it on national day weekend. Basically, I have no idea what is the plan because they are so secretive about it!

HB and his xiongdis just had a meeting recently and they will also be holding their own stag night on that same weekend and at Batam too.

But we will each do our own stuffs. LOL.

Sinplyme, yea the jiemeis are the one organising. haha.. so it's SURPRISE!

anw, I am not sure if my sisters are coming up with the party since most of them are busy with work..

rivenwood, wah so soon.
My hens with the cousins will be early November. Hens with other friends and jiemeis is TBC.
And yes it's a surprise, they won't tell me what they plan to do, I only know that we're going to a villa in Bali.. excited!

My fiancé might not have his stag night, not sure if his brothers are organizing one for him but he's quite easy about it, it's not a priority to him it seems.

sinplyme, no, I wasn't told about the 7th month of lunar calendar.
But then again, I don't follow the chinese superstitions (no offense!) so I think I will just go on with my own schedule

sinplyme - I see, but you've done most of your prep already?
As for me, I am having a long leave now before my new job starts late next month, so I want to do as much wedding prep now as possible.
But everyday just passes so quickly, and I'm moving very slowly!

now, deciding on my invitation cards design, thinking of what favors to give, oh and shortlisting tailors to make Cheong Sums. I haven't started my diet yet :p
 

mimichan

simplesweet - you can have an afterparty with your jiemeis
happy.gif
no need to follow the norm (hen's party) that strictly, I feel.

I'm also DIY-ing many things, and am thinking of making fascinators and head-pieces for the girls.

mimichan > you are wrong.. I still have alot not done.. I'm planning to diy alot of stuff but only angbao box is done..
sad.gif

invites all these also havent meet up the printer.. etc... just waiting for sept to be here to (re-)start the planning process again..
that's why I'm asking if there's any else I left out, in case got, I can quickly do it before aug 10th or find a slot after national day... sigh~

envy that you are actually in Aussie now, cos of the variety of stuff there.. whenever I google for stuff/ideas, it's either aussie or US. no local suppliers.

Sinply> yup realize lots of favors from US or Aussie…. But it’s very x…
My sister end up ordering from Malaysia some Precious Moments Tea Bag ^O^
Say it’s much cheaper ^O^ even the printing of invitation card/ program card there cost a bomb…..
Another good favor would be the ‘Sticky’ Rock sweet =) very sweet to give out.. coz it has u and ur htb names on it! ^-^
Or a ceramic jewelry box….. =D

sinplyme - I'm still in Singapore, will be going to Perth in Oct for pre-wedding shoot.
I am traveling a lot this year, trips planned in Aug, Sept, Oct and Nov. so I better speed up my prep!!
Looks like many brides here who is going DIY
happy.gif

I haven't done my Ang Bao box yet. What does yours look like?
I'm still thinking of a design for the Ang Bao box to suit my theme.

sinplyme > haha I went overboard this year with my trips. I've already gone to Japan in Apr and Melbourne in May...

August I'm taking leave to go to Italy to attend a cooking school there, I'm super excited as I've always wanted to do this!! (my hobby is cooking and baking).

September I'm going to Munich (Germany) for Oktoberfest and also to see the Passion Play (play of Passion of the Christ which is only played once in a decade in a small town in Munich. the next play will be in 2020, so I thought, why wait, just go this year w my fiancé before we're tied down with more commitments).

October is my pre-wedding shoot in Perth, a short trip.. probably less than a week.

November is my hen's party in Bali with my cousins during the long weekend.

Then, December is my wedding! phew. Hopefully I can do lots of prep before Sept.

I'll be busy even after Dec, as I'm planning a wedding in Japan too... (I'm half Japanese)

I wish my work allowed me to travel often!!
That will be so nice. Only my fiancé gets to travel all the time for work, I envy him!

Money... non non, don't have! haha.
Italy trip is a present from my fiancé, if not for him I think I couldn't have gone. as for the rest.. Munich is something very special so I've planned this long time ago.
Hen's party, usually the brides don't have to pay.. (but of course I will offer

sad.gif

btw, just buy wedding related stuff or doing all the things related to wedding.. I was told the latter.
Anw, I was thinking I should have enough time (since the 7th month ends on 8th Sept) to do the planning &amp; prep. Also, wedding supposed to be happy for us and the elders, so I dont want to upset them.

Hi girls,

I was reading the last few pages and oh boy! I can understand your stress and all!

Bf &amp; his family came over to Sg to ask for my hand earlier this week and the date for AD has been set for this December!

I've less than a month to wrap up everything in Sg before heading over to Taiwan end August. We are going to have 2 dinners, one in Taiwan and the other in Sg. All within a week (or 2). The problem is, I understand a lot of venues are taken up in Dec. sigh. Have to start calling all the possible venues tmr.

Will have be traveling for work till end Sept and I was told that it will take 10 days to 1 month for the wedding photography. That leaves me with less than a month for other wedding preparations. Stressed up!

Besides sourcing for venue, make-up artist + photographer in Sg, are there other things that I have to look out for?

As my AD will be first held in Taiwan, my wedding certificate will be issued there. Do I have to get it endorsed by Sg's ROM? My parents are hoping we do ROM in Sg but can we do 2 ROMs? In that case, there will be 2 wedding dates?

Very confused and tired. And relatives are all throwing "helpful" information in my direction. It is all a bit overwhelming...
 

sinplyme

New Member
hi evelyn,

for your ROM cert, I think can only be issued by one place, otherwise, you would have committed "double marriages"? Probably you will have to ring up ROM to verify with them?

Okie, to decide on the venue, you would first know what is your estimated number of guests. (for eg. no point booking a venue for 500 guests when you only have 350, right?)

Then at the same time, you start on your search for bridal studio.
I don't know if it's comforting enough for you, but just to let you know, I have a colleague, his grandpa passed away and he only had 100days to prepare, so if he can do it, so can you?

You definitely have to let your bridal studio knows about your 'urgency' so see what they can arrange for you.

One suggestion I have is, maybe you can go to those Taiwan bridal boutiques based in SG, to solve your 2 venues (SG &amp; TW) problem. I don't know if it works but you can try asking them (provided you like their gowns)?

happy.gif

Hi evelyn

don't worry, everything will fall into places..
happy.gif

you can't ROM twice, you can only choose one side for the actual ROM and then inform and update Spore side. But since you ROM in taiwan will it be in chinese wording? probably you need to have a translation copy in english leh.. call up and ask ah..
happy.gif


yeah agree with sinplyme, why don't you choose taiwan bridal shop. you can get your PS in taiwan so you do not need to rush back and then fly over again..
 

elynh

New Member
I called up ROM, been told that there is no difference where the marriage certificate is issued.

Bridal studio wld be over in Taiwan. Probably have to work something out with them. Confirmed AD to be on 1st Dec (Taiwan) and Sg's AD will be within the same week.

As for ballroom, I'm looking at ard 16 tables or so for my side. Sheraton has 12 tables (12 pax each available) while Goodwood Park has min 18 tables. Going down to look at the ballrooms tmr and hoping to confirm before the 7th month.


sinplyme: yea, I was advised not to plan anything during the 7th month too...
 

sinplyme

New Member
elynh > yeah, then must act fast cos National Day coming... you only have one more weekend to go.
happy.gif


Since your BS is in TW, then maybe you can also engage a local BS, (less the pre-wedding shoot since TW BS should have taken care of it and you'll only need gowns for AD, should be cheaper).

New Member
elynh> does ur bs in taiwan allow u to take the gown to singapore? that wld be cheaper or u could consider those with branches in spore.

haha i finally finished my PS and choosing of photos
happy.gif
topped up 10 photos to make a total of 61 photos... but they gave a good deal cos they absorb my freight charges as my album wld be sent back to taiwan to make.

sinplyme> Went to see GWP just now. Am pleased with what I see and the ballroom is just right! The wedding coordinator for GWP is really nice and efficient. Just 2hrs after meeting him, he sent me all the pictures so that I can send it to my fiance in Taiwan. Once everyone is happy, I should be able to cfm by this Fri. ;p

deb> Waiting for him to find a BS in Taiwan before we can decide whether we need to find another BS in Sg. If the BS over there allows me to bring my gown over, it would be easier. Keeping my fingers crossed since the 2 dinners are just 4 days apart.

Once that's done, I guess I just need to find a Sg photographer and make-up artist + stuff for my bride's maid and I should be set. I hope I'm not missing out anything... ;p
