Hi Blossom,
Yeah, I meant spring cleaning our bedroom. Its quite big (our bedroom has 2 stories...the loft is where we sleep) and there was an unbelievable amt of things to dust and junk to throw. But we're done. Took us the whole saturday to clean the room, throw old stuff, clean the windows, mop etc. My parents did the living room, kitchen and their bedroom. Hehe..they did more work but my mom already started on Friday. Saturday is usually our housework day but she started earlier coz spring cleaning is usually more tedious!
Sleepy...*yawn*
So what do u girls have planned for the reunion dinner? for the past 2, I have only spent the reunion w the hubby's family. Hoping to attend both sides this yr...

Hi Teri,
Yes i do agree. If we are very particular over the kind of gowns and the design we want, choosing a bridal shop is not easy. Got to look into the customer service, the price, the photos, etc as well.
I have signed up with qianxi restaurant @ singapore civil service club @ farrer park. For bridal shop, i have signed up with wedding affairs at upper serangoon road near SRJC.

alhana,
wow, that's quite a big room. so i suppose you stay in a pte hse?
yup, there are really a lot of junk that can be accumulated so easily. i clear until face green green. i guess it's good to have spring cleaning.
reunion dinner.... i intend to eat at both sides. maybe will arrange one side to eat one day before the eve.

Hi Wenn, Seiko, Jojok,
I am back from honeymoon!! Wow had a nice 1 mth break from work. 1 week was before wedding and 3 weeks honeymoon. Can't bear to come home actually cos we were so happy but hubby missed home so no choice got to come back, also cos we ran out of money already.
My wedding went very smoothly and I was very very happy that day. How I wished it lasted longer, trust me, you gals will feel this way too. It will be one full of beautiful memories.
We had church wedding in morning followed by lunch reception then tea ceremony and to hotel for the dinner. So it was quite a rush but we truly enjoyed every moment. In fact, I kind of missed the wedding preparation and all now. The last week before wedding was really hectic and stressful. So, now that the wedding is over, I am quite lost, in a sense... something like exams in the past. You cramp everything in a week then before you know exams are over and suddenly you are so free.
So, all the best to you girls who are preparing for wedding, enjoy every minute.

Hi Blossom,
Yup, we're staying in a private apartment. Ure right abt accumulated junk. I always wonder why I dun just throw them immediately instead of pushing them aside and waiting until spring cleaning time comes ard
Sighhh...that's what happens when I procrastinate!
In my case, both sides have the reunion on the eve
I'm hoping that we can go for my in-laws' one earlier, before proceeding to my aunt's place for my side's reunion. My cousin fr Hong Kong has just arrived to celebrate CNY w us..haven't seen her in yrs! Think they already planning long mah jong and poker sessions liow I'm looking fwd to eating my aunt's pineapple tarts and bak kwa!!

Hi Teri, Hi KK!

Teri, what do you look for in a banquet and bridal package? I suggest you narrow your choices so that it'd be easier for you to make a decision.
Hi Bluebonnet,
I think I may know you.....kekekee......

Hi Yvonne,
I graduated in 1991. Yap, both myself & my FH are catholics. I have arranged w Fr Gregory Van.. (the vietnamese priest).
Is Fr Gerard the tall, thin priest? Not aware that some priest do not preside if both either party is a non-catholic. So have u booked your date/time w the secretariat? Better book early. Have u attended the EE or MPC session? I will b going for the EE session this Mar.

Hi TKGal,
Yes, i have decided on the venue. As mentioned in earlier msg, i will be having the wedding dinner at Qianxi Restaurant at Farrer Park. Kind of budget constraint and wouldn't want to spend too much on dinner, so settle for a restaurant.
Looks like a lot of Oct brides this year! Several of my other forum gals are also getting married in Oct
How's ur preparation thus far? Have u tried ur gowns already? Which bridal u booked with?

Hi Wenn,
So u have more time to save up for both wedding & honeymoon now. More time for planning too.
Hi all, Happy New Year. I have just designed my WG & EG b4 CNY. Will b going down for Ist fitting sometime in Apr. My designer was good. She crafted 4 gown designs in advance so i was able to settle w the design & measurement w/i 2hours. Guess she will call me sometime next wk to pass over some samples of my gown materials so that I cld get ready my shoes in Apr.
Any recommendation for comfortable shoes of 2.5inch high.

Hi Wenn
agree that you have more time 4 preparation too...
ROM date as confirmed?
Hi Jojok
wah, u really a fast worker... my wedding is earlier but ive not even been down 2 Santiago yet. I'm realy ladened wif work this yr, hubby works weird hrs cos in A&E, they work shifts.
Went to Esplanade for our reunion lunch when we chanced upon Amor Meus.... loved the Cheoongsam display, so i went in 2 try... wah, fell in love wif their embroidery n high neck CS. Hubby encouraged me 2 mtm 1... i checked their mtm price, according 2 the designer, he said ard 700 for a real simple 1, to 1K+ for sth more elaborate. what i tried on n love, will cost ard 1K liao.... hubby said go 4 it.. i think most prob will go 4 it... haiya, that means super strict dieting already.
Muz say am very impressed wif the boss there, very patient n engaging guy. I think if i do mtm 1, i will use it 4 2nd march in.
Already bought 1 pair of shoes fr Jwest costing 90, dunno if can use as wedding shoes anot. Gotta stock up once i see shoes, or else if i really go ard looking, sure can't find any 1... jus like buying clothes *HEHE*
how u gals doing? this thread had been so quiet 4 such a long time....

Hey I was a student there too...can't remember my yr..I think was 88. Heard that the principal, Mr Chen had left...wonder if the new one will maintain the standard??
HI Seiko,
so the cheongsam will be your evening gown?
Yah, this thread getting very quiet, why huh??
Jojok,
why dun you consider Riccino? Their shoes are pretty comfortable. I bought 3 pairs from them for my wedding. Very good, even those that covers both front and back and with sharp pointed front. I wore that for my photoshoot in botanic garden, but never die from it, so should mean that its comfortable enough lah.

Oh, Poi Ching shifting?? Heehee, a little bit selfsih but I also hope Pei Chun will shift to Tampines or Pasir Ris 'cos I am staying at the east and so my gal can attend the school...more convenient..heehee
I never have a chance to use the sports hall..what a waste! After I left, they start building it!!!

Hi gals,

Hi gals,
Jojok, riccino has branches in orchard plaza (i think, its the building where spotlight is) and the building beside, its a old brown building owned by far east, you see a lot of tailor shops there. Its on second floor. I will dig out the card and give you the proper address on monday. They custom make shoes, so you pick the design and they will do it according to your size. This is especially good if you have broad feet like me, I have size 4.5 for length but size 5 for width. suits me better esp pointed shoes. btw, wats your height? why only 2.5inches? Me wanted 4inches but later settled for 3.5inches cos cannot walk on 4 inches.
hey, my wedding photos are ready, if you gals want to view it, can give me your email.
Seiko, personally I think better not to forgo the EG and use it to make the WG better. Why not use that as a second change for sending guests or for cocktail? Do you get to keep the EG?
Wenn, so wats the duration between ROM and dinner?

Me too. I graduated in 1987.
Pei Chun has changed a lot since we left. Wonder how it is like now. I'm especially grateful to Mr Chen who had helped me a lot during my PSLE time.
