Dear all,
After conversion, u have to change IC rite ? then passport names,bank acct, handphone bills and all the document with ur name and IC also must be change accordingly ? hdb occupant name also must be revised??
 


Interrace,
Thank you! cute is one thing, you should hear him cry! hahah..can put you into panic state especially first mum. Don't worry. Just add your muslim name in the IC. Automatically all the stuffs will be changed (govt bodies) so you don't have to change your bank acct or hp bills etc etc. You can still use your previous name. In the IC, it is by law that you're not to remove your previous name. They will put Alias. For eg, Janice Wong @ Mariam Wong Abdullah.. (example lah)So that means, by law you can use either Janice Wong or Mariam Wong.
 
Both Meraj and I are actually born Muslims. Meraj though is bangladeshi and even with our same religious background, the cultural differences already enough to give us a headache. So I really give it to all of you girls who converted/are converting. I admire your courage.

Interrace: Sandy's work is alright I think. She's quite popular amongst girls who are ROMing.

Elaine: Nope. None of us have met up. At least I don't think so. This is a good channel to talk about things, if used correctly. We can be there for one another.

IC and Ally: Side track a bit eh....I being the usual kaypo me. *heheheh* How do you actually go about naming your child? Like I have a friend (who's chinese and malay), Muhammad Danial, apparently according to him, to appease both his sets of his grandparents. My name is also cos' I have a lot of mixed blood in my genes it's actually a Hebrew name.
 
Marnie,
Answering your qns, neither did we use Chinese nor Malay names. What we did, get hold of a book on Muslim Names which can be bought in The Muslim Converts Association of Singapore bookstore or any other Muslim bookstores. We just give our baby a Muslim name.
 
Hi Marnie,

My hubby n myself also bought books on Muslim names. Same as my name- Elleana - partial of it can be found in those books. In fact, its a mixture of a christian/muslim name..tats wat I gather fom my parents.

ic,

does ur child carry ur husband's surname?

Interrace,

My kids take after my hubby's genes, eyes sharp..sharp..abit cheena look except that they are abit tanned..too much swimming! Anyway, sometimes mixed blood mst also c who'e genes are stronger. My family had a mixed genes of chinese, malay n dutch. But looking at my elder bro n myself - he had abit of the ang mo looks whereas I have typical chinese face.
 
Ally & ic......your children going to be heartbreakers.....sure got alot admirers one...*hehehhe* I can already imagine their cute mix features!
 
Interrace..

Yeah hehe.. better prepared well ya.. dun be like me failed and retake making me more Keong Cheong..
I have yet to change my IC name ya.. after convertion they will give you $40.00 so called to claim as transportation, after you have change your IC, they will give you another $60.00.. My muslim name Sarah Abdullah Yue. hehe..
 
Elaine,
Yeah..don't worry. Pass your test first. If not, you can't marry. Then need to go marriage preparation course. If not, cannot get marriage cert..then cannot apply HDB flat.
happy.gif

Ally,
Yes. We compromise on that before marriage. So that, it won't look funny in the future generations later especially if it's a boy. (in the end, i gave birth to a baby boy) Becoz i checked with the Registration of Singapore Births, that the race will follow the husband automatically. One way, it's just to let know his actual roots. Coz, in my family line, they made a mistake by not keeping the surname. The next generation later, they don't even know what's their actual roots. When i wanted to get married, 2 weeks before marriage, only then we realize, that me & hubby were sharing the same surname. (But we're not related after checking family history, in fact even different dialect group) But my boy, he's going to take up malay as 2nd language in school. Becoz, both of us know he won't be accepted in the chinese community. So, we'll bring him up more towards the malay culture.
 
ic,

so ur a mixed too? regarding the family roots thingy, I think its impt to trace back our family line, ya? As for my family, the guys do carry down our family surname, as for myself, tats one of the reason y I had a ch name for both of my kiddies. Better to let them know that they are part of the 'Teo' family.

At least good for you that ur bringing ur son up more to the malay culture..in any way, ezier for him too when come to studies. We tried to speak in Malay with my elder son but he simply refuses to comprehend. Im still in a dilemma on which language shd I enrol him for in Primay sch.

Marnie,

Aiya!..keep my fingers crossed - one dun be a playboy n the other not a playgirl enuff liao!! Studies more impt!!

Elaine,

all of us had not met b4. but who knows one day we might form a club like the 'First mum club' on Ch 5!hehehe..

Interrace,

dun gan jiong..jia you..jia you!!
 
Ally,
It's too early to tell. I have nephews who only speak 2nd language, malay only when they enter pri.1. Becoz, their parents always speak to them in english. (Afraid they will fail english and then later cannot enter uni..far thoughts) Don't worry, kids learn fast. Now they can speak malay very well. I'm not dampening your spirit. But, since your son is malay, if later on he takes up mandarin as 2nd language, you need to prepare your son for a lot "Why's?" by his classmates and also some chinese may not like it. To them, your son is malay. Some kids are able to take it, but some kids may be too sensitive. My youngest sister told me that in school, some of her chinese classmates told her that they didn't understand why their parents do not allow them to bring their malay friends home or play with the malay friends. Usually, kids are innocent but the parents are the ones responsible for bringing up the child. When they go to school, they will experience this. I'm already prepared for my baby. Majority of the chinese have the thinking that once you marry malay, you become malay. So, i think i shall stick to "their" thinking. One way is to protect my son from getting hurt. You should think about that too. But not to worry, nowadays got 3rd language as well in school. Your children can take malay as 2nd language and mandarin as 3rd language. Seriously, i have malay friends who can speak and write mandarin fluently but they still can't get a decent job. So, it all depends on fate also.
happy.gif
You know, if i can put my son's race as malay, i will do that. Too bad lah... singapore law doesn't allow such things. hahah..
 
Ally,
ok..a bit side track..'Teo'character, 'Zhang'. I realize there's a lot of converted muslims in 'Zhang'. Ask around... and you will notice.
happy.gif
hahah..
 
IC,

Tats true lar, rgdg the race part. Ppl tend to be bias against the minorities. Well, hubby n I will decide in coming July(Pri 1 reg).

When u pt out that mostly Muslims converts are 'Teo's, kinda true lar. In my sec sch, I had a few frens who are mixed heritage n thinking of it..they are also - 'Teo's.
 
BTW, ladies..

was juz wondering..normally in malay wedding, the couple will exchange gifts during solemnization - bags, shoes, etc.. R u all doing that too? <kekeke..kaypoh>
 
Dear all,

good afternoon!!
wa..so many posting since i last posted hee..hee...
why must be sarah "abdullah" xxx leh ....must include the abdullah meh ? i tot it was not compulsory as normally that stands for your father surname or smthg ?
tks for the well wishes gals, will try my best to learn all abt islam and convert with flying colors..haha..saying is easy .. :P

wa..seems like having kids really very the tough too ..haiz, nothing seems to be easy in a mixed race marriage hor ?
 
A very good afternnon to all..

how you gals doing over the weekend ??

Interrace...
Abdullah seens compulsory lei, thats what they told me during my convertion.. so I just followed lor

Ally...
I didnt know we need to exchange gift.. I gave Zero gift.. when I ask the guy family during discussion, they also never tells me so.. but during our ROMM at his place, they actually placed number of things on the bed.. cakes, breads, flowers and fruits also money , they flamed it up nicely.. so different from chinese ya..

Anybody looking for wedding decor ?? I saw this webiste Inai.com.sg.. not bad lei will be going down during their exhibition over at expo.. hopefully get something there.. hehe..
 
Ally,

Meraj and I are not doing that. Except for the mas kahwin or mehr (which is a religious compulsory). The gift exchange is a custom so we decided to do away with it. Not that we forget our culture, but I find that it's a bit of waste of money to have it done. Both our parents are alright with it.

Elaine: Have fun at the Expo yeah. Iheard not many BS will be there as it's the peak season for the malays to get married and they are all busy with that. Inai Bridal is actually a BS. The deco, usually they outsource to third party so you actually pay more if you go through them.
 
Elaine,

ya lor, usually the gifts will be decorated very lavishly. I heard from my mum its juz a traditional/custom thingy. When my time..only prepared hubby's shoes, wallet, toilettries n stuff. but relatives came in with other stuffs too..like fruit baskets, cakes, sweets lar.. aiyah..sometime very ma fan n lor so..Marnie, true lar..abit of wastage of money. I think sometimes the couples had to spend a bomb for the gifts..esp nowadays,wifeys will go for branded stuffs (wan to makan hubby first mah if not after wedding..sure no chance one!)
 
Ally, yeah yeah...and if you have relatives who like to talk and compare and say this not enough why this not that...Aiyoh..feel like screaming at these people....have the gifts exchange also can be frustrating like that.

It's true, these days, aiyoh....the girls ask for the sun and moon..! I pity the guys sometimes...

Interrace: No worries lah. It's quite normal these days for couples to skip the gifts exchange. It's really whether we have money to have it. I rather spend that money buying some kind of furniture for our home.
 
Good morning everyone..

how's everyone getting on ?? have not been posting for quite a while ?? busy busy ?? just to drop by a note to say hi and have a great long weekend ahead.. will be going to expo tomorrow to see the exhibition and shall post to you gals on tues ya.. happy holidays !!
 
Hi Elaine! Yeah I've been busy busy busy. Meraj lost his passports in KL and I need to help him sort out details like his employment pass here and insurance claim..Aiyoh...so much hassle!

Anyways, let me know how the expo is. Heard got a lot of people there...including merchants selling fabric! Do tell...I'm still wondering whether I want to go......
 
A Big Big Hello to Marnie, Interrace, Ally and Elaine as well as everyone else!!

It's been millions of years since i've last posted on this thread in this forum that I've started. Apologise for my MIA...been wayyyy toooo busy to even visit the site.

Well, i see that this thread is still alive, kickin' &amp; happening! It feels good to be back! It's still here wif all of your support and help in exchanging ideas and opinions! Great wayy to go girls! And i see that i've been missing out alot of good stuff.

Talking abt the expo, i must agree that there weren't much good BS stalls this time ard. But i've noticed this particular one that's seems to be pretty good. It's called Bridal Concept. I kkinda like their style of photography. Quite cool. heh...so definitely gonna be on my list. I hAVent been doin much on my research lately. Sighs...been trying to save up more before me and my bf are ready to start engaging in the vendors and stuff.

Marnie: i hope everyone is well and smooth on your side! Hopefully every gets settled quickly abt Meraj's lost passport issue.
happy.gif


Interrace: sorry i've not been talkin to ya even if u see me online on msn. Been crazy wif work lately, but hope to tok to u again soon! Btw, how's Your marriage preps goin on?

Lastly, I was planning to take up the BCI 2 course recently, but i was told it was being put on hold (for dunno what reason). Sighs...however, i've decided to takeup the Tawhid course soon for June. Anyone interested to take together? heh...hope to have some kakis...

Hey girls, have a suggestion here, but dunno if it works. Maybe we should meet up soon. Really very keen to see u guys. Should be very fun! Like a meet-up session once every two wks...ehhehe...tell me what u all think!

Warmest Regards,
Hui Chin (' ',)
 
Welcome back Huichin! Yeah man...you haven't been on here for very long liao. Thought you kena tekan at work..*heheheheheh*

So how's the expo. I haven't gone yet. Not sure whether I want to go. *sigh* They were telling me that there will be one last one for this year sometime in August/September.

I took food from Istana Wedding Services to taste the last 2 days. Very SHIOK the food! I am SOOO glad I engaged them for food and decoration. I think I am in good and safe hands in that respect. Hopefully by August/September, we are able to sort out the menu and negotiate over the prices for the food/decoration.

How are the rest of me bride-to-bes' presentation coming along?

Huichin: As to your suggestion to meeting up - I am all for it!
 
Hi Huichin,

Nice to hear from you..Seems that everybody's bz ya? + preparing for ur upcoming wedding ..no big joke..kinda taxing (been there b4!)..

Im ok with the meet up..but im a stale bride liao lah..hehehe..anyway..juz drop a note some how..we'll c how it goes..
 
hi Ally and girls,
ok..sorry girls a bit off here.. But maybe you chinese girls can tell me. I went to a family gathering, my aunt's birthday. My cousin married a chinese lady. Her family was there too. Her aunty wanted to carry my 1 month + baby. So i allowed her. She even told me she doesn't want to use the carrier. Carry by hand. I allowed her. I thought only for a while. When my hubby wanted to ask the baby back, she didn't allow! She refused to hand over the baby giving excuse she only carry for a while when it's already sometime. She ran away from my hubby to one corner. So funny! Dunno whose child is that and i don't even have direct relations with her. Doesn't she feel ashame? Then, my hubby scolded me in front of my relatives. Until my cousin also was so shocked. Hubby told me that chinese believe they want to take the luck of the baby, or ask the baby to give them wealth (strike lottery number) or so that my cousin-in-law will bear a boy. Is this true?? When i got back home, didn't want to take any chances, my hubby shalawat nabi, say some prayers and gave the holy water to my baby. I hope the angel and God will protect my baby from such evil and nonsensical ppl. I will never allow the chinese to carry my baby anymore like this! They actually carry the baby for intentions???!! Can any of you chinese girls please enlighten me regarding this beliefs??? I hope no harm has come to my baby. I feel so guilty now as a mother that i'm unable to protect my baby.
 
Hi Ally,

haha...y call urself a stale bride! lol..at least u are an experienced bride! haha...

hello there IC, I'm actually quite shocked to hear that...normally people (including chinese) will not behave like that! I guess it's ur Hubby's aunt being 'pantang' and stuff(abt 4D), it's might be nothin! Maybe she finds ur baby very cute and irresistable, so she wanna hold for a while? lol..I guess ppl like these tend to behave in a more 'exaggerating &amp; ridiculous' way. So...sorry to hear u got a shock from this incident. It's really nothin one. I even asked my mum abt it and she oso agreed with me. Just these aunties being silly. So dun take it too seriously k? Take care and enjoy motherhood well!

Hi Gals,

Can anyone share how the evaluation of the conversion goes like? as in do we have to demo how to do the saleh ? and they will qns us on our knowledge of islam? pls advice. tks !!

Ps: me dun mind meeting up, will be fun!!
 
Hi gals...

Sorry for the late late posting.. my PC not working for the past days. My trip to the Expo wasnt good lei, but ended up I tood up the one from Inia Bridal, their is the cheapers, anyone of your mind to view the website and give me some suggestion can ? Iniabridal.com, hopefully I got the website address correctly.. very stress up with my wedding decor.. wanted to make a nice one but alot of money needed if youw want to add this and that

Huichin ...the bridal concept you was saying I like it too. is about $1500 to make an ablum as well as one big flame up right ?? I thought fo taking up their service.

Interrace... what demo are you trying to say ?? about the evaluation, they will test you on the prayer first before they ask you question from the "Essense of Islam" if the tester of yours is a chinese lady call Sister Mariafa will be good, she is more "chin Cha" , if your tester is a malay, they will be more strict. They really test you all the way.
 
Elaine: Welcome back! I'm having problems with my 'puter too. Called someone to take a look at it Monday morning, hopefully.

One of my friends signed up with Inai and it was rather good. You should have no problems. Does your package come with the wedding dais or just the makeup, outfits and flowers and hairstyles? Can I kaypo and ask how much? (I really kaypo, right?)
rofl.gif


No need stress about the deco lah....Just look around. I heard that the good deco companies did not participate this time around. There'll be one last one this year sometime in August/September so there may be a few then. What deco companies did you look at there?

Interrace: Sorry I can't help you....but all the best for you at your demo!

Huichin: Aiyoh..I understand you lah...You too addicted to your work liao.....Stop burning the midnight oil (literally!) and rest lah...
 
Hi ladies,

Long time never talk! I was down with fever n flu since last week. Sigh...till now havent got my voice back as yet.So far, how's prep for wedding?

IC,

sorry to hear about ur baby..so far..i dun have such experiences with my old chinese aunt or relatives. But I did checked with my grandma..sometimes the chinese like to c the child's fortune n if ur baby brings good luck..they like to rub some of tat good luck on to them lar..Not sure whether all these are true or not.
 
Marnie...

I am more worried about my make up. I really hope it turns out good... my make up package is $880 consists of 3 sets of costumes plus two make ups and two hair dos. My dais is $1000 signed up with Inai too, but yet to be discuss futher as the 1K dais is only 8 fits, which is damn small right ?? I will want to upgrade into the 12 fits at least.. I wanted very much my guest chairs to be covered, looks more grand but my future husband and family said waste of money. Anynoe out there have better suggestion ?? I had chosen purple as my theme colour.
 
Hi Elaine,

I dun get u..regarding the bridal dais..u mean 8 feet? Find that its is a bit small..When my time..I had also the smaller dais (comes with my bridal package)..then when I informed my mom rgdg the dais..she immediately get a family fren to do up a 12 feet dais (looks more grand also).Anyway, Elaine, if u had the budget - y not? Anyway, its a once in a lifetime thingy.
 
Elaine: I think S$880.00 for 3 sets and make up and hair is reasonable but S$1K for the dais is expensive lor. Does the dais come with anything else? Like you know floral stands and table pieces? Cos' if you pay S$1K for it can get a lot of things for the deco.

And I do agree with Ally, 8 ft is a bit too small.

Usually if you want your chairs to be covered, the cost will be higher. Definitely more than S$1K liao. I find that if you use the covers, the deco looks "tied together" and rather pleasing. But that's my perspective. But with the cost of each cover anything from S$1.80 to S$2.50 per piece, I think you really need to be sure you have the budget for that.
 
ally

1K is for 8 ft dais lor.. of coz not only dais, it comes with other things, just too rush to discuss further on that day we visited expo. I will upgRADE the dais into 12ft like you said more grand ma.. hehe.. can share your experiace with us ?? what is more important to do on that day wedding ?? my husband mama said rather pay more for my dais and my gown rather than other things, me simply wants alot of things with low budget.. hahahaha.. me cheapo ya..

Marnie..
Do you know of any decor lobang to introduce ?? I went around and check, really nothing capture me accept that weddingsutera, but is really way too expensive. I thought of having one wedding cake on my wedding day too, saw a few nice cakes at the expo about $400 sia.. looks like i realy got to cut off the chairs cover liow..
 
Elaine: Yeah wedding sutera is really great but they are also not within my budget and them not being upfront about costs put me off. *sigh* Oh well.

What's your budget and what do you want the package to cover? Let me ask around. And go through the packages I got from recce-ing on deco. I'll post it here later in the evening, k, when I am back home?
 
Hi Elaine,

Can choose testers? hee...very stressed leh.
So we got to do the actual prayers in front of them, including the actions like cleansing urself before the prayers?

Sounds like u having a really very traditional malay sorta wedding, when is ur AD huh?
can we drop by to have a look ? for reference..hee..just kidding.
What's a dais ? U even have a wedding cake...
happy.gif

So ur makeup and clothes u rent from bridal shop? can recommend which one ?
the other day i went to one, they work from home, package for one costume is abt 500.
so think urs quite reasonable, can recommend?

Hi Ally,
Flu bug flying ard, better drink more water.

Hi Marnie,
how's ur prep been ?
 
Interrace: Dais is the stage where the couple sit after they "march-in".

You can try Haq Wedding Services for bridal clothes/make-up. I find that they have one of the lowest packages for bridal clothes. The dresses are not too bad.

My wedding prep is coming around slowly..but steadily. Confirmed my bridal shop, venue, caterer and decorator. Even got my wedding favours liao (a bit kiasu I know but I rather do bit by bit so that I can have breathing space).
happy.gif


How is everyone else's wedding prep coming along?
 
Ally,
my hubby also say the same thing. You teochew dialect right? Teochews believe such things? Heard, cantonese also believe such things. Ally, realize something. Wow...you got married 7 years ago at 20 yrs old? wah...you very experience married woman. Can share tips with us.
 
Hi IC,

Yup, I'm a partial Teochew. So far, I do have some older relatives who juz commented on my children's luck n fortune but even so, my parents had this "pantang" that their grandchildren's luck shd not be commented lor..

Anyway, ya..I got married early when I'm 20 (hubby scared that I may marry off to some Ang mo when I was studying overseas lor)..Experienced..no lah..im still learning..but its quite tuff, when ur in a interracial marriage..lots of disagreement between both families. SOmetimes u get stuck in between lor.

Elaine,

Having chair covers really look nice..How I wish my time they had it reasonably priced..7 yrs back it was so damn expensive that I had to forgo the idea.Furthermore, mine was offwhite n gold theme. I think on the AD, basically, alot of the malay relatives that I had - they commented alot on the dais n bridalwear. Most important on the AD was paying respect to ur elders. I remembered on my AD, my makeup was drenched with tears..At first, everything was gg on smoothly.. hubby came for the bersanding..then we had lotsa photography session with relatives n frens. But when its time to go to his place..we had to pay respect to all the elder relatives...then n there..my parents/ grandmas + other relatives started to cry..TATS IT..my tears also started to roll..
 
Hi Ally,
So you nikah gantung? as in ROMM only and later traditonal..Or marry with the traditional ceremony as well? Yeah, interracial marriage is never easy. I also had my share of experience of disagreements, fights, verbal abuse etc etc.
Hey, i also had a white &amp; gold theme for my wedding!!!
happy.gif
 
Hi Marnie,

Dais is the stage, wonder if i will be having one ..? hmm...better to have one ?
What is wedding favours?
Me totally clueless, might be signing up package with fatimah monsih something,like their clothes.
happy.gif

Is it compulsory to do the henna thingy at the finger tips? can dun do ?

Hi Ally,
Ask u hor, when u do ur confinement, did u go back to ur mom side or is a must to be done by ur mother in law?

Dear all,
when are we meeting up ??
 
Hi ic,

Mine was the traditional nikah n bersanding ceremony. My parents thot it will cost more to have 2 separate ceremonies..so do everything one shot.

Interrace,

After my confinement (1st delivery), I went back to my mum's place..much to the remorse of my MIL. Big hoo-haa over who to look after me. But at the end of the day..nothing beats like your own mum. U dun tend to feel paisay with ur own mum. 2nd delivery - MIL no longer around..so not much a prob.

Yup..when are we meeting up ah?
 
Interrace..

Tester cannot choose ya.. is our luck, yeah you have to perform "wudu" and the prayer infront of the tester. not that difficult overall la.. just concentrate on your prayers, wudu easy to remember, the rest is from the book lor.. when is your evalution ?? when your big big day ?? dais is a must if you go for traditional malay wedding, gals.. am i right to say that ?? correct me if I am wrong ya.. my big day is on the 18th sep this year, your can come by see see look look ya.. no prob with me at all. hehe.. I engaged Inaibridal for my wedding gowns and make up cost me $880. many said quite resonable lor.. hopefully is ok lor.. hahaha.. I thought of having a wedding cake. wonder is my 1K wedding decor included, some does lei..

Marnie..
My wedding decor budget is about $1500 hopefully to include 12fit dais, skirting on all tables, chairs cover, some fresh flowers, red carpet, nice celling decor too I thought of having round tables for guest rather than long ones lei.. me really cheapo ya.. what to do.. make in singapore ma. hahaha..

hey gals..
I only know ally is teochew, how about the rest?? yeah meet up when huh ??
 
Interrace: Fatimah Mohsin is on the high side, although I have to say that the clothes are beautiful. Good luck and have fun trying the clothes!

Wedding favours are little gifts you give out guests. It's like a thank-you gift, if you will. Can be anything as long as it is presentable. No need expensive one. These days, the favours range from chocolate bars to something like a travel prayer mat. It depends on your budget. Some caterers do provide in the package the wedding favours so I think you can ask your parents in law if the one they are engaging a caterer which provides that as well in the same package.

Elaine: Sorry for not getting back to you about the deco packages. The computer guy came and spent 4 hours reformating my 'puter and just getting rid of all the bugs. I was so tired by the end of the night.
yawn.gif


I will look through my file laters yeah? But top of my head. I have that are in the range you are looking at but does not come with chair covers. Will let you have them anyways for you to look see and compare.

Gils: Yeah...wonder when our meeting will be. Huichin...where are you? Since you suggest, can you be our inaugural organiser??
