pisces: according to old ppl, it's best not to attend other people's wedding 3 mths before or after ur own wedding. Heard this will CLASH with the bride n groom's own luck. My hubby also. his gd fren getting married a mth before ours, his dad say better dun attend. it depends whether u realli believe anot. Some ppl also bo chap. i think if it's realli best fren...I will go lor. other than tt, i try to avoid as much as possible.

hi angeline,
ermm.. actually i also have no idea what kind of chocolate they use.. thats the problem.. later the chocolate i buy doesn't flow.. then it gets stuck ah.. HAHAH..
hi tansan,
oh.. my 'save-the-date' cards were DIYed and printed on my computer.. and its really small.. like 3/4 the size of a name card only.. but my relatives says that its really cute.. hehe..
u can buy it but this kind of $$ can save lah.. dun need to spend.. i'll rather spend it on the chocolate foudue..
hi duckling,
yah lor.. i'm very KS.. actually my AD date was already settled the begining of last year liao.. and FH and myself have been going round telling our friends and relatives about the date already.. so last year.. lots of our friends and relatives knew that we were getting married in nov this year liao.. hehe
oh yah.. and i've received the menu liao.. thanks gal..
hi gin,
why dun need to come in liao? dun go leh!! we still want to see ur mei mei photos leh.. hehe.. are u planning to upload them onto the web?
hi pisces,
for the no no to attend ppl's wedding 3 months before and after.. i have heard of that before.. but guess what.. it really depends on the individual and on the other couple getting married whether they are alright or not.. my FH and i are not particular about this kind of thing and find it very ridiculous that we cannot share other ppl's joy and vice versa.. i have got one wedding to attend on 6th oct.. and two weddings to attend in dec.. and since all of them are not pantang.. they will be attending our wedding and we'll be attending theirs as well.. however.. i also do have another wedding one week after mine in dec which the other party is pantang so that one we cannot attend and they won't attend ours as well lor.. so it really depends on each couple and whether they are pantang or not.. but angpow we'll still be giving lah.. coz close friends..
i think that divorce does not depend on whether we attend ppl's weddings within the 3 month time frame but rather on the couple themselves, their commitment, communication, etc.. it would be rather silly to blame a divorce on this.. (my personal view hor.. i dun mean to offend anyone by saying this..
)
hmm.. as for car.. can't help u much on this coz i'm planning to get a RAV 4 jeep for my wedding car.. but that one is FH's duty so i dunno much about it.. sorry..

Tansan/Pisces: i do not know when the promotion ends. if the ring fits you, you will not need to wait but if it don't they might need to make it. so better buy earlier than later on too rush you cannot find anything you like.
as for when will the promo end i am also not very sure.
i wonder any of you know, when the groom goes for door bashing, he will give ang pow to the sisters, do i have to give the sisters another ang pow again? what is the average amount to be given?
duckling, i am sending you the pic today. do keep a lookup..
btw anyone went for the marriage seminar last weekend? i attended one at 3pm - 5pm last sat.

hi pisces,
i'm catholic.. but FH is not.. he's a free thinker but his parents are taoist.. i'm really glad that they dun have very strict traditions to follow.. thats why i say it really depends on the individual as well as the other couple whether pantang or not..
and yeap.. i've attended a marriage preparation course over a weekend in feb.. its a stay-in camp from fri night - sun evening and covers lots of topics with regards to marriage.. i love their tagline.. 'a wedding is a day, a marriage is a life time..' it means so much eventhough its just for 1 sentence..
even though FH and myself have already talked about most of the issues presented.. it was good reinforcement and a good short break from work and studies..
i strongly encourage couples to go for marriage preparation courses coz its really good for the couple's future..
eh.. london cab's pricing is about there lah.. but for rental of wedding cars.. as mentioned.. i got a quote for $588 for a lexus RX300 leh.. that one then is really really ex..
my budget is max $350 for a white toyota RAV 4.. that is if i can find one.. coz not many white Rav 4s around.. haiz..
wah gals,
now shopping for shoes liao ah? i'm going to adelaide tonight for 1 week.. hopefully i can find a nice pair there.. but the problem is whether it can match with my gown or not.. headache..
oh yah.. and if i'm taking a maroon gown.. what colour shoes should i get for it? any advice?
hi gin,
can i see ur mei mei pics too? [email protected]
thanks in advance..
hi trista,
my angpow box will be safeguarded by my FH' sis.. told her to guard it with her life.. hehe..
alright.. will be back in sg only on the 4th of april so till then.. happy planning gals!!

trista, hmmm if he used to it then its ok...but maybe you can check with suzanna if u can order 1 set of muslim food for him and have a table of 11 pax or not since he is that close
cos from what my mum tell mi before is that when u know that person can't eat the food (like muslim or vegetarian esp) dun ask them to eat cos the sin will be in ureself....
but if ure family not pantang type and the other person agree then its ok lar

Trista if he is taking the chinses food thenit will cost more to you cos your chinese menu would not be cheaper then that right. As what myself and geraldine has suggested, have 11 pple int hat table 10 chinese menu 1 muslim food. it ok one i did talk to her abt this and she say can discuss. Since you do not have malay friend then no issue lah
