I'm taking on 24 May..

 

[lovmoment]

Hello! anyone engage master long?

 

[Clzh]

Hello! anyone engage master long?

Hello, yes I have. He charges $120.

 

[lovmoment]

is the auspic time mus reach bride or groom hse? i am abit confused of the timing? eg 7-9am

 

[Clzh]

The groom hse! If you read carefully, it says "first step into the groom's place"

 

[lovmoment]

so means mus reach groom hse 9am if 7-9?

do we need to follow the ausp time to reach bride hse?

 

[Clzh]

Yes if your auspicious time is 7-9 am, you should reach the groom's place within the 2 hours. He didn't tell me any time to reach bride's place

 

[klijing_sg]

is the auspic time mus reach bride or groom hse? i am abit confused of the timing? eg 7-9am

From my understanding its 7am step into the bride's house and to serve tea to the groom's parents by 0859..

 

[lovmoment]

Oh..So the timing actually should finished the whole process at groom place.

Thnx ! quite headache on the time issue.

Just have to take note that the parents got to drink tea before 0859.. The rest of the relatives can be later. If your Travelling time between each person house is quite a distance.. Gate crash need to cut down..

 

[jassiez]

hello all. I also engaged Master Long. Do you girls know if he gives any timing for the combing of hair ( 上头）by parents? From what I remembered, there isn't any..

 

[octobride]

For brides whose parents divorced (not in contact with dad), who will do the combing of hair? Can mother do it alone?
And also the same question for sheltering bride with red umbrella on AD.

 

[lovmoment]

So should we proceed to have outdoor shoot before heading to groom hse or aft that?

 

[klijing_sg]

So should we proceed to have outdoor shoot before heading to groom hse or aft that?

My plan is to do the photoshoot after i complete both the groom and bride side..

Because you need about half an hour to do the shoot and you need to travel in between..

When he enters your house at 7.. He will still need to take picture of lifting veil, going to the car etc.. Then Travelling to the groom house.. You also need to video coming out from the car and going up the house into the room before serving tea..

You will realise you can't do much within that 2 hours unless your house is like really very near.. For mine, our houses are about 20-30min drive this we can't do photoshoot before going groom house.

I will change back to gown again after leaving from my house.. Or else it's go for PS before changing to Kua and going back to groom house to change to Kua..

 

[klijing_sg]

Haven't select gown. Selecting beginning of May.. I went down to the store to make arrangements.. I don't want them to control too much of the dates because never know whether they will forget..

I topped up $1200 for my evening gown too. It depends on the details you requested for. Like ruffles, beading, lace. It all adds up.

hi, thanks for replying! i probably going to check out what entails that top up. Just abit concern when I am not a subject matter expert in cost of material .. lol
it seems alot to top up above 1k when I am asking for a simple gown and the gown+evening gown is MTM (rental) - not for me to keep :|

I know right. hahaha. are you at the design stage already? mine only asked me to top up after we fixed the design. the amount of work needed on the gown equates to the amount we need to top up. I enquired about heavy beading like some zuhair murad gowns and it was really expensive.

 

[octobride]

Haha i am 15 oct btb

Finally.... haha

 

[wanderlusterz]
