[maisie]

whao..thats early...but its good to plan ahead.. =)

 

[prettygirl]

hi all, not early to start with you haven't got a house yet.. found your love house already?

 

[mag85]

Hi~ i'm 2012 BTB
guess not too early to plan right?

 

[lisi86]

Hi girls, I am also a 2012 BTB.
Right now, the top priority item for me is to secure my love nest. Me and HTB intend to have our photoshoot at Taiwan, but are still waiting for bridal shows before signing for packages.

Anyone started their planning yet?

 

[mag85]

kind of. looking and planing. most likely either going bali or local

which area you looking at?

 

[chinkerina]

Hi all,

I start my planning since the day i ballot for my home, Oct 2008. =) got it in Jan 2009. Waiting it to be build up and move in in 2012 where i'll hold my wedding together.

Got ROM last Monday, Check List to build a new home, ROM Done, Home confirmed. =)

I don't think its too early to plan, i think its just on time, especially when you need to save up.

 

[chinkerina]

Jocelyn Oei (prettygirl) ,

What is your plan, got your home already, looking for wedding package?

I think i'll DIY my bridal package. =) My Cousin doing photography. So i'll need to MTM my WG EG tea dress. Not intent to print the whole album, maybe just table top. Gotta save up for home renovation too as mind in concurrently together.

 

[chinkerina]

chan lisi (lisi86),

Maybe you can go over then sign up over there, i mean Taiwan. Some of my friend do that in China and Thailand. Maybe you can set your budget and start going to wedding fair, but dont sign up so early. Thats what i think la. =)

 

[chinkerina]

magdalene cecilia (mag85),

You got your home already?

What about Malaysia, the package there is nice too.

For bridal package in local is quite standard. I think i've seen too much wedding photos of brides with the same WG and EG especially from the same brial shop. Thats why i decided to DIY.

=)

 

[chinkerina]

Jere's WiFe (maisie)

you getting married in 2012?

 

[mag85]

nope not yet. we plan to get a resale flat in the east

me too most likely DIY my bridal package, also got to book my church. think will do everything together in 1 day

chinkerina, wow you save a lot~ do you cousin have any photos to view?

 

[lisi86]

chinkerina (chinkerina)

Hi! Congrats on your ROM! thanks for your advice. We are not intending to sign up for the package so early yet. Only after we get our flat then we will go and plan further for our wedding.
Still awaiting results for Punggol Spectra.. *prays*

How are u intending to DIY your package? Maybe u can share with us where to order your WG and EG?

magdalene cecilia (mag85)

Hi,

you intending to go bali for photoshoot?? sounds very romantic. the photo should turn out real good.
any deals or packages that you are eyeing right now for the photoshoot?

I agree that we should start planning early, since planning a marriage is definately not an easy matter!

 

[mag85]

yap chan lisi. totally agree!

further more i'm in plus size. hoping i can slim down by the time~
had seen a few photogarpher's work for oversea and AD work. got to pick up a few. at 1st tot of going paris, but the price is TOO high, that why we choose bali. just like you say it really out good.

also got to book the church(i'm a catholic). everything look so messy now

lolxx

[chinkerina]

chan lisi (lisi86)

Hehe.. i mean only sign up when you go taiwan. Or you going taiwan soon huh?

I'm still doing my homework on it, open to suggestion and options from friends too. =) Some friend recommend Thailand and Vietman for Groom suit. Gowns will be China and HongKong, local too.

DIY depend on what you want ba..

Some DIY cost $10K ++ some only $2K.

For mine should be about $5K and below, including, flower girl page boy sisters and parents rental, car decoration and etc + never ending story.. hehe..

have you found a place for you wedding dinner??
i have friend recommend groom suit in malaysia. i heard Thailand and Vietman are goos too

 

[chinkerina]

Wedding dinner will be at restaurant. As the number of tables may range from 40 to 50.

Not many hotels can hold it. I don't want to have 2 days wedding dinner too. Very tiring one.

DragonGate was my husband 1st choice. But its not open for 2012. Hehe...

May look for others if can hold 50 tables.

 

[chinkerina]

Thanks for the link..

Really like to view pre wedding photos. But i think its better to leave the idea to your photographer. Headache choosing venues. =)

 

[mag85]

wow 40-50 table. ya. quite hard. my bro took maritus mandarin. they can hold 50 table.
how come dragon gate close?

 

[chinkerina]

I didn't say they close.

They are not open for 2012 yet..
