I doing everything as per usual but just for the gate crash I simplify it, like just a give Ang bao then open door.

Do you have a schedule to share with me?

I'm thinking of doing without the entire morning session cause there's really nothing to us to do.
No gatecrash, MIL doesn't want to have tea ceremony at home cause she prefer to be at the venue where everyone can see.
So basically only my side for tea ceremony, that's all.

And my bridesmaids were asking, "why do you need us to be there in the morning if there's no gatecrash?"
Good question, I didn't think of that.

Maybe you can tell them that you want to go for some outdoor photoshoot?

Are you doing your banquet at night ? Maybe can ask your htb to come and fetch you in the afternoon and offer tea to your parents. Simple one just open give Ang bao and open door. Maybe like that your parents can have a 'feeling' that their daughter 出嫁.
Then maybe you and your sisters can adjourn to the hotel and take some photos.
Maybe can explain to them that you need their moral support and maybe a little help like help you touch up makeup, carry gown, hold on the red packets from relative.. Those misc stuff.
For me I got church wedding, so htb fetch me and we go church together.

No I meant the save the dates notice. Cos I'm planning to send out the formal invites only in Jul or Aug. So wanted to send out save the dates to inform friends and relatives earlier.
I initially only wanted to look for jp in Mar or Apr but maybe got to start earlier! Worried can't get 1 easily cos of my venue..

Same. When I wanted to take in Feb.. They said too early and though they will take your photo.. They will only give you your product at a later date cos they want to settle other brides whose dates are nearer first..

And they also said that got new gowns by then.. So wait for the new gowns.. Sigh. If not because I can't confirm my work, I would have die die book February to take photoshoot..

haha i dont fancy hardselling too! so far my experience has been not too bad.

1st stop - D*G**, i wanted to have a good gauge on the pricing and to also try on some gowns. very nice gowns there but i went on a weekend evening and it was packed! not much hardsell though.

2nd stop was J******C****, love her gowns and designs. very pretty and nice lady, she knows the latest trend and very talented too! but the gowns were tad too pricey and had no 'packages'. so it was just OTR designs or bespoke designs. a little off my budget

last stop for now - TGW
tried on a couple of gowns last weekend and not too bad an experience. the price range is reasonable. just that i have not found THE dress yet. not much hardsell too

how's your experience so far? :)
