Alicia> U can bring your FH to tailor make the mandarin collar wshite shirt at only $50, he can choose the fabric, the type of collar, the type of pocket, the types of cuff. The shop is at kakit bukit. I got FH 2 tailor made shirt for xmas gift and its so well fitted and nice.
Alicia & ying3r> Enjoy shopping for your wedding bands and BS shopping. Can go and attend the upcoming bridal shows and see their package, then learn to bargain for more perks and see their port folio and gown designs etc before deciding. usually the perks are more when u sign during the wedding show, but dun be impulsive.
Dianne> Dun be angry with your FH, I think it's not easy for him to just leave the place cos after all his uncle just passed away, and alot of relatives there too. Hmm his sis also cant go to the wake one cos baby "pang tan"
Take it easy k, its very common one for couples to argue lor. But I guess U should know your FH better then any one else ma. So communication is the key to problems. Some times we dun communicate enuff or rather we dun clarify thats y end up with misunderstanding and mis-communication resulting in both feeling un happy.
Cheer up k, Be a happie BTB in 2009.

Actually it's very common for couples to go ring hunting together especially wedding bands cos will be wearing for a life time, so both need to like the design and comfortable to wear the ring. As for proposal ring, I personally feel it's a good idea to shop together so that FH knows what design u like roughly and then he can go buy it himself and plan for the proposal.
As for me I'm not so particular about the carat but the cut is very important to me, if it is excellent cut/ perfect cut, even if the diamond size is small, it will still SHINE.
Good news to share, haha. FH proposed to me last night. The dinner yesterday was the most expensive dinner i ever had in my life.
He brought me for fine dining at a french restaurant. The food was amazing & fantastic lor.. I nvr knew egg, carrots and tomato can taste so marvelous. We had white wine, taste really nice and smooth. My main course was Lobster!! YUMMY!! Everything was perfect, the ambience, the service. The waiters are more well dressed then FH, haha they all wear so formal like the groom.
After our romantic dinner, FH brought me to marina barrage, the place is really nice!!!
We sat infront of the fountain then He gave me my favourite flowers tulips in my favourite colour, a hand made card with the things he wana tell me. After I finish reading the card, he went on his knees and proposed to me with a solitair ring (Brilliant rose by soo kee, 0.32 carat, F colour, VS2)
I was so happy and really over the moon. I asked him to propose to me louder cos i cant hear him, (teasing him) then I tot for a while before i say YES!
For that moment the time seem to stood still for us. Even though I knew that he was goin to propose and tot i wont be surprise, BUT, I WAS still very SURPRISE and delighted. My Dear's sincerity really touched me lor. HAHA... I cant stop smiling after he proposed. As we drove back to my place, he played a cd with only one song that he dowmloaded in 2 differnt version, classic and modern title "CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE", this is the song that mark the journey of our love life.
After i accepted his proposal, I told FH to speak to my parents and family today. He did it and he told my mum " auntie, last night i proposed to your dgt, and she has agreed to marry me. May I have your consent to marry her and give us your blessings?" HAHA my mum was so happy and my elder sis started teasing him about what downry to prepare etc. And of cos my parents agreed.
Ladies> Dun despair, your other half will definitely make the proposal a memorable and happy one. SMILE!!
