[diaodu]

Hello...

How's everybody? must be busy hor..

wow..magical, your corsages are so pretty! u can change line liao..hehe

actually quite stressed cos my future MIL told me the wedding dinner is fixed on Jan 20, 07 liao.. according to fortune teller..OMG! this is just like a bomb man..

today, so busy, met up with 3 IDs and went to the bridal fair.. so agressive until i dare not sit down and talk to anybody..keke quickly ran...

But finally signed up with X-Zen today. Like the designer and photography services. Promotion ends tomorrow so sign up liao...

Btw, Sweet, who did u sign up with? went to silver lining too but think my bf's family probably cannot take it so didn't take up the deal....

 

[magic_alz]

hello sailormoon, sweet n diaodu!
thank you thank you...=) was kinda worried that they may look weird..heh...now can relax liao...they're safely in my ang pao box waiting to be taken out n used next month!

sweet.,
yep, i teach in sec sch... =)

diaodu,
wah then u better get moving n book your venue! its a sat...many places will have been taken already..
yeah bridal fair very scary 1..

if not just use this tactic, when u walk by n they grab u, just say u're married liao, then if they say 'never mind, photos can take again' then u say 'he's not my husband.' sure freak them out..haha!

 

[cottoncandy]

hi diaodu

wow, date set liao... that's great! so where's the banquet venue? i was with Milan for the BS

only tea dress was from silverlining...

hi magical

your wrist corsages are really nice!! not weird at all... hehe... haha... your tactic of "he's not my hb" very good leh!! i ever once told these promoters that my hb was my bro, but we not holding hands then lah... hehe

 

[diaodu]

Tks Sweet & magical!

No lah.. we hold hands so cannot say not hb..haha
we just said, busy .. not time lor.. keke

Just came back from suntec.. booked the venue at one of the chinese restaurant.. luckily can get. ..

finally can take a break liao.. and concentrate on my exams.. yeah!

MIlan is a good choice.. heard it's quite good!

 

[cottoncandy]

hi diaodu

that's great!

after all the major decisions have been made, you can sit back and relax abit while searching for your ID

Milan is ok, but if i have heard about silverlining earlier, i would have taken my whole bridal package with them

 

[magic_alz]

hi sweet!
yeah good idea hor? but we didn't really do it la...just say say only lah...but i wonder what they would say after that though...heheh...

diaodu,
did u book pearl river? wah u very efficient leh..over 1 weekend settled your stuff liao....
hm..this weekend hubby also working, so only managed to go around on the evenings. met up wth impress21 n went to earnest interiors..

btw does anyone know abt platinum design? theirs is the cheapest, but no radac... is the radac accreditation a good gauge anot?

i screen thru the thread lo....didnt find the prices leh....i wanna the purple colour one....hahaha......

 

[diaodu]

Hi magical, Sailormoon,

Yes, me book with Pearl river for about 40 tables. So sad, so many tables, think might increase further.. I don't realy want to hold wedding banquet but they want so anything lor.. Got the news that we are getting married in Jan instead of Jun 07 last thurs. FH & me got a shock.. cos everything must be ready by Jan.

According to FMIL, no good to get married in 2007 (chinese calendar). Not me hard working, my FMIL find the place one.. she is really excited.. haha.. Is Pearl restaurant good? I also don't know .. Me and FH anything, they like then sign lor.. anyway, we cannot afford to be picky.. a lot of places have been taken..

Hi vonz,

Yes, yesterday confirmed already. Is Jan 20, 07 really a very hot date? Finally u found yr package. Fame can deliver a lot of black and white pictures ya? How much did u pay? Me paid S$3188 with X-Zen..

Seems like our dinner and bridal all around same time..

 

[lightz]

Hihi...

All the best!!

[magic_alz]

haha...see? great minds think alike! =)
yeah actually, believe me, do EVERYTHING u possibly can NOW! no preparation is too early man...

now i left 48 days liao...the countdown begins! =)

 

[diaodu]

Wow Vonz.. your package not bad.. heee..
U born in which year ? who knows we might be in same school last time..me born in '78.

Hi Sweet,

Thanks for telling me.. hee. FMIL said got 45 tables when we reached the restaurant. Me had a shock. Then later on, she said will cut down to 40 tables due to space constraint.. *heng ah*

Btw, do u know if Angeline provide 3D designs + quotation? Me still awaiting her response.

Hi Sailormoon,

Actually, as you know, we fixed the date in Jun 07. All along, FMIL told us she will ask fortune teller for a good date. It seems like based on our chinese character, we are not suitable to get married in 2007. So recommended Jan 20, 07 - chinese calendar is Dec 2. That's the only date.. initially was quited pissed off.. cos it's very rush.. luckily everything was settled now. So it doesn't mean 2007 is not a good year lor.. hee.. dont worry ya..

Hi magical,

Maybe the restaurant underwent renovations since it can cater up to 41 tables now.. Actually we signed the package w/o knowing anything much about the package cos worried cannot get a good place. it's good to learn that there's good reviews..

Good luck to you, once it's over, you can relax and provide professional feedbacks liao..hehe..

Thanks Lightz for the wishes.. all the best to yr upcoming wedding!

 

[cottoncandy]

hi diaodu

hmm... something has happened to Angeline's family... so it might be a while before she can reply u (probably she might still be on leave)... yup, she will show u the quotations at the 2nd meeting.. for drawings, i cant remember... hehe... paiseh
