Never top-up bcos I very focus muahahaha. I tried to keep 5-6 pics per scene/theme and don't choose repeated poses per theme. Anyway, they didn't psycho me to top-up too. Used hp to snap..but got 'warned', lol. but when they never see me, then I continue to snap...
Decided on landscape format and matt. Because I also do not want my $$ to stick together few years down the road
Viewing layout and sending them songs for photos montage on mid-Sept. Dunno when I can choose AD gowns and collect albums + frames....hmm....

If nt really melt.. But photos shd turn out well cos of the bright sunshine! When u selecting photos? We gonna select photos this coming sun! Can't wait!
Chino, we also planning to use the same strategy, limit ourselves to abt 7-8 shots per outfit, then streamline fr there
haha u used hp to snap fr the computer? Won't it b blur looking?

Ivy, the tradition like v long time ago liao. Its actually on AD, bride only offer tea to groom's side. Aft 3 days when bride return niang jia, den offer tea to own parents.
Yes lah Yanting! Overexcited cant see my post properly! Lol Wher u go for ur outdoor? (3rd time) =p
Anyway chinorene, its a gd choice for matt surface lah, more durable rather than stick together aft like 1 yr! haha
As for angbao, ok let me give some opinions. Solemniser, just give $8 or $12. they are voluntary, so whatever amount u give them, they will surrender back to ROM, back to govt pocket cant keep. Plus, they're paid for the job.
Brothers & Sisters either u give them individual, or they get it from gate crash. But its up to u if u wana give them more lah.
Angbaos for little children, cousins or babies, $2 or $4 is enough. Its just as a yi shi. Just my point of view lah, nothing rite or wrong, all depends on individual.

Ivy, ya the act of bride changing n returning hme on AD to offer tea is to replace the return hme 3 days later after wedding.. last time even have to give roast pig on returning, with the ears cut or not to symbolise whether the bride was virgin.. haha but all these long long ago tradition le..
Chino, I've 9 sisters n most prob 9 bros on my HTB side leh.. then we gonna b broke aft bao-ing the bros n sis ang pows!
but anw, I was sis so many times, but no extra ang pow fr wedding couple one leh, only have gatecrash angpow and ang pow fr both side parents..
Jasmine, wahaha ya la I really tot u asked me when! heehee I blur.. In the end, we went to Punggol and Seletar Reservoir.. Cant wait to see the photos! last wk my whole mind all on getting ready for the PS, bo chup my reno at all.. Nw this wk accumulate all fire to chase my contractor and HDB officer for reno le..
reno permit still not approved yet, so stuck there.. so I'm chasing very hard these 2 days to hopefully move it a little faster.. Oh, I didnt know they surrender the ang pow money to ROM one.. I heard pple say b4 some will donate to their RC or wat..

Jasmine/Yanting, oh ic.. cause i dun remember i hear such a tradition these days.. my mum say hav.. -.-''' nowadays offering of tea is all done together on actual day le lor.. still gt 3rd day go back niang jia offer tea.. haiz.. make it more complicated only..
Yanting, jasmine and chino toking about the matt or crystal finish.. any idea wat WL offer? i hav no idea on the finish.. haha
Chino, as for angbao, i tink maybe $8/$18 for Soleminser, driver, open door boyboy, PG/VG/MUA(if necessary) cousin/babies - $8.. anyway is only yi shi yi shi like wat Jasmine mention.. As for sisters will get their angbao from the gate-crash but will give them a good treat before the AD.. for Emcees, my HTB will be asking his fren to be one so the angbao will depend on him..

Ivy, yes Venus & Fables r JB BS. Vertically opp each other. Think for the pages finishing, Matt is better option coz if take crystal finish or shiny finish, they will stick together in future. U want ur few k like tat stick together meh?! Lol
Yanting, y hdb approval so long?! I think they dilly dally 1 lor, last time I submit my doc, aft 1 mth, they ask me for same doc again...zzz bloody fed up! Must keep calling to expedite the whole process!
U nv go garden by the bay ar? Lol v nice leh..I see alot of wedding couples taking ps there too. But Seletar & Punggol more natural, wun be outdated too!

Ivy, I dunno abt the Matt or crystal finish thingy leh, cos I told them I dun wan hard copy photos, juz soft copy will do, then convert the value to more shots for us.. Cos we felt that the album so big n bulky, won't see much aft wedding then still muz find Plc to keep, so we rather have soft copy..
Jasmine, ya think hdb dilly dally, then my contractor also dilly dally.. They only first submitted the application 2wks aft I signed contract with them.. So nw I everyday chase both hdb n contractor.. Tdy I juz called the boss of the ID company n tell him my reno die die muz complete by end sept.. Ya we nvr go garden by the bay, 1 thing cos we nvr go recce dunno we like anot, then another thing is I heard fr another couple's photographer that morning that he won't encourage cos some of the plants there still in growing phase, nt at their nicest stage yet..

Jasmine, I took up the Naza bridal(Taiwan). The disappointing part is they keep insisting us to go to those man made places on the day of photoshoot. Even though I said I dont want, they also dont start the car. Just hoping i change my mind to say ok. End up can only say ok.
For my actual day, I use Chris Ling.
Very fast you collecting your album.

when I 1st went to select my gowns I also tried on one super duper nice n princessy one, my perfect gown.. But that's the top range n I muz top up $800 for it!! Siao.. So I decided to choose something else.. I think nt worth to pay so much for wear a gown.. Wats a crystal bouquet?
Jasmine, dun stress yourself over getting a perfect gown ya.. I personally feel no matter wat u wear on that day, u'll still b the prettiest!!
