jeslyn: no u can't do that, u will get fined by COMPASS if they come down to spotcheck during ur wedding. luckily for me, my wedding's over so dun have to contend with such nonsense hahaha...
sunshine: ahhahahahaa...cos I bot all the softcopies mah. original have 30 poses only...pathetic right? the $$$ was a special arrangement btw me and my BS, so can't reveal sorry...
to be honest, a bit regretted topping up now when I think of it...album also hardly touched ever since AD. The $$$ can be put to better use really.

Thomas: yeah agree with j0yle.. what you can do is get a digital frame, place it by the dressing table or something, then your wife and yourself can view all the pictures~! or just select all the photos as your office pc screensaver 
I did try to ask my BS too, but they are very firm about us buying all their s/c... so if we want we will have to top up on per pic basis
Danny: I was as firm as you before my photoshoot.. but that was until we took a few shots and the photographer showed us some pics on his camera and we both went soft immediately.. haha.. hopefully during photo selection we wont fall in to temptations to top up.
Just to ask all.. Now that I am done with my wedding photoshoot and about 3, 4 months to my wedding, what else needs to be done? Card printing ma? Actually, we are very behind time.. haven't thought of our montage and the underlying copyright issues, guest list, AD itinerary, etc etc. Guess my face will turn from this way closer to the AD if we continue to sit on the pending stuffs;

joyle: no of cos not...so many print until I die ah...hahahahaha....not a bad idea leh, will ask my wife
sunshine: LOL u are cute leh...can come out with the smiley faces haha. yeah, that's the tactic of most BS...maybe u can work out a deal with them say top up min how $$$ then u can buy back all ur softcopies at another price?
yes, now its time to settle ur invites...have u settled on where to print? after printing, u still need time to write, tie, send out etc. RSVP is another major headache...
I feel for u that u have to contend with the COMPASS issue now...luckily my wedding is over so no such nonsense for me. If u have time now, best to draw up ur guest list cos that will take a lot of time too. I know my wife spent a lot of time doing up our AD itinerary, not easy. After drawing up u still have to ask ur XDs/JMs out for a briefing on the day's events.
have fun...now I'm beginning to miss mine haha.

Sunshinegirl>> can have ur email add? My PG sent my a AD itinerary sample.. I think it’s quite useful, but I haven’t gone into the details yet. I send u for reference? Got details for u to look into.. even got MC script and Guest list in excel format..
Cheer>> I not too sure how much electricity it uses, but I have been eyeing for one as my wedding gift! I think in the LR, will be cheaper than buying all the photos and not admiring them at all cos’ never print...
I remember those days.. haha, like 2005 time, I went to some BS with my relatives getting married, they will give u back all the soft copy after one year, dun need to pay at all. But if u want it ASAP, need to pay… 1 yr later go back and ask them whether they still have? Maybe got discount?

hi everyone! Happy vesak day! Hope everyone is enjoying ur long weekend!!
Joy: I pmed u my email add le. Thks! I guess the itinerary will come in v useful for me, given that thr is still a lot o things nt done >_<.. Hee thks joy!
Thomas n cheer: thks for ur advise! Actually we have a really tight budget now, hopefully we won't need to top up too many, and aim for this money to go towards our honeymood instd! will tell u e outcome when I'm gng to choose my photos in 2 weeks time!
In terms of card printing, we haven't started sourcing for a card printer.. I read fr e forums this T-dragon fr JB is v popular isit? will probably need to pop by JB one weekend to check it out.
Danny: wow 38 photos is quite a lot of photos.. I think it sounds like a good deal without needing to top up any pics at all.. may I know how much is ur bridal package?
Hannah: wow U r one bz girl! Did u tell ur bridal u are working out? So when altering ur gown they can alter a little smaller.. Else by july ur gown would probably be loose even after alteration.. Haha.. Gambateh!!!

danny: I kept in my MBR cabinet drawer...hardly touch it now.
sunshine: er, T-Dragon is in Sg, not JB. Think u are referring to T&T instead...yup I printed mine at T&T, cost is half of SG. If u don't mind travelling then try it. Look for Shirley, she's very friendly and we have good experience with her. Communication mainly by email, she replies promptly. She gives 3 free animated icons also, most printers in SG have to pay. On my actual collection day, she told us she gave us another 20 free inserts so it was a pleasant surprise for us =)

hi all..
I have met Jack today. A very pleasant friendly coordinator.
He told me that there will be a wedding show in June.. Anyone had signed during wedding show before? Could you please share with me what are the usual perks in the wedding show?
And, i'm quite worried about the decoration of the ballroom. I understand that is a mix n match things and i find that the back drop is rather plain. Can anyone who have held their wedding before share with me that pictures.
Can email me at [email protected]
Thanks alot!

Joy: Thanks for the attachment! It's really very organised. Shall work my AD events based on this! Thanks again!!
Thomas: Thks for the contacts! We will need to collect our cards first before gng to print the inserts right? Do we have to come up with our own wordings (especially those chinese ones) or they have some standard templates?
Danny: Wow that's quite a deal! I only have 30 shots, and my package is like 200 lesser only.. if i have to top up 8 pics i will probably have to pay another 500+!!! haiz but I didnt think of negotiating for more pictures then... Oh well..
Ling: How's married life?

ling: me sick also...on mc for 2 days
is it??? now have to pay even if taking outside?
sunshine: yes, NCQ will give u an authorisation letter to collect from T-DRagon first before u go print ur inserts. U can either print there or other printers who can give u cheaper prices. T&T have a lot of templates for chinese wordings so not to worry. they have a lot of biz from sg couples, u can see they have a lot of sg hotels' templates as well.
danny; u can try my PG if u want www.aspirestudio.com I dropped my PG from my BS package cos not to our standard.

All : how do u select the date for your wedding dinner? by consult master or simply find a date which is available...?
thomas>> i got my date frm the last super wedding sale. hope the prices are almost the same.. =P
weddingsoon>> i just chose a convenient date.. basically its kinda random.. i selected nice number for my ROM, and decided that my AD shld be within 1mth of ROM.. but i booked my banquet more than 1 yr in adv, so easier..

janel: to be honest NCQ is pretty stingy with their perks. at most u can squeeze out more parking and % of cards, thats all. if wanna get more perks, best to sign up during their super sale like the link I showed u above.
hannah: jiayou wor...u're making good progress!
danny: I consulted a master for my AD date
joyle: u must have gotten a real good bargain...
pris: I lost a total of 7kgs just to get ready for my PS and AD...hope that's some kind of motivation for u =)
special22: forget abt Regent, NCQ is more value for money. Food also wins handsdown.
