25 days to go

on saturday.. we went to the restaurant, paid the balance of deposit, finalised the menu, we wanted to change our soup, even if its 'hoi mei tong' sea smell soup.. hahaha.. it's some seafood soup (sea cucumber etc) or 'fat tiu chong' buddha jump over the wall soup.. we had to pay additional rm100 - 200 per table. and we thought okay, we opt for double boiled chicken herbal soup. we had to pay rm60 per table.. so.. yes, we're sticking to our shark fin soup without shark fin. -_-

then... we went to old klang road, the auspicious house at 3rd mile square to buy our bridal room accesories.. like the baby tubs etc, and the bedside lamps.. and mervin bought the dowry stuffs. traditional yet simplified. not cheap though, we spent about rm250 there.

last night, we drove pass a new china store, in taman mayang opposite KJ lrt station, its called Fun & Cheer, they have the red umbrellas for sale at a very reasonable price, below rm20. I think its rm14.80. They have a few pricing.. At living cabin, it's rm29.90.. or is it rm19.90. hmm.. but anyway, fun & cheer has really really cheap 'double happiness' logo stickers at rm0.80 only!! - rm2.80! really really cheap. they even have confetti for sale from rm4- rm9. wedding tea pots not very cheap, rm58.80.

we've been staying home cleaning and clearing a house that is filled with 25 year old hand me downs.

we're almost done, and mervin has done a really good job!

i heart u, fatty.

29 days

Let the countdown begin! and the heart beat stops beating!

mommy and future mommy doesn't really like the cupcake idea. *aihh*

_

their comments was: so expensive

_

what should i do? paid rm100 for deposit, should i change it to the typical cake, change it to tarts or don't care and just go ahead with cupcakes?

_

we're gonna have nasi lemak for lunch on the 24th October 2009. it is safe, and it's almost every Malaysian's favourite food. So we can't go wrong with that.

29 days before the wedding, i finished doing my part of the guest list and seating arrangement. *phew* i feel it is my toughest part in the whole wedding process. and how i wish every group are in TENS. ^_^ and the world is really at peace and harmony that we can put anybody and everybody on one table and they would enjoy the food together and go home happy ...

_

I'm thinking of not wearing the white wedding gown at night, and straight away wear my red evening gown. what say you?

_

In a few days time, we can go view our photos again before the bridal shop send it for printing! *fingers crossed* i hope their design is according to our request. simple, natural and black and white.

OMG!! 30 days to go!

my mom enrol me for a Thai fruit/vegetable carving course at the Thai Embassy, from 10th October SATURDAY- 14th October Wednesday 8.30am - 5pm! it is her wedding gift to me.. as she says, she too, went for some course before she got married, to prepare herself to be the BESTEST Thai wife. *_*

So because of that, i have 30 days to go, and only 3 weekends left to the wedding!!!!! YES! this relax bride is beginning to lose her 'relax-ness' .. stress is beginning to creep into her body.

*remembers to breathe*

ANYWAY! let's not think about that... i forgot to tell ya, i have RED lil' flowers cupcakes too! from TASTY DELIGHT

Be there Be red

a conversation between me and one of merv's workers at Cempaka Village:

YU: are you pregnant?

me: nooo..

YU: one month?

me: noooooo..

Yu: then, why are you getting married??

-__-

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

we don't have any fancy names to call our wedding night, it's not movie red carpet night (though i didn't mind the red carpet) .. it's not a hello kitty wedding .. it's not a snowflake fairytale wedding, etc etc..

but we thought at least to have a theme colour.. so its RED! .. red is not my most favourite colour.

But i thought it really has a good contrast, it's happy, shows passion, desire, and love!!

Bought my super red umbrella from Chiangmai.. only for 75BAHT! (it helps if you speak thai and you know where to get it, they were selling it for 150Baht elsewhere) anyway RM16 is still real cheap compared to the one i wanted to buy from London 20pounds/Belgium 20euro.

we have mini red and pink umbrellas for only 20Baht to help passion-up the restaurant

red is so lovely.. and it looks good in photos too :P

red bouquet, red umbrellas, red petals, red cards, red drapes, red evening gown, red car decor red just married car plate....

red is hot n seeeexxxxyyy!!

Many people has asked me if it's a must to wear red.. welll.. it's not a must.. but i guess it would be lovely for the morning session? for photos sake and it definitely looks like a happy happy occassion :) At night i shall release you from the RED nightmare.. and you can wear any colour you look pretty in..

except black though. mommy hates hates black.

see ya red-ter! hugs n kisses

xoxo

the cards are out!!

we're LOVING every bit of the card.

It's simple, it's red, it's so chinese, it's oriental, AND it's so cheap affordable! hahahahahhaa!

We spent about RM200 to print our 230 pieces wedding cards.

We wanted 25 tables, small cozy wedding, but it's been expanding, and hasn't stop, same goes for the Thai wedding.. smallest, to small to smallbig to big to bigger to biggsmall.

i don't make any sense i know. i never do.

we had a gal's night out last night, went to 'the library' at cineleisure now known as e@curve i thought it was another scarlet, but it's not too bad.. live band on selected days, which i don't remember now, good promo on happyhour, nice big comfy chairs, half open air.. non alcoholic drinks is at reasonable pricing at good size glass. (hopefully they stay that way)

Anyway.. we were discussing on how to play torture the heng tais! ngek ngek ngek! me so excited i count myself in as a JI MUI! haha! too bad i've to peep from the window.

you know, i couldn't sleep last night, just thinking about the games we're gonna play i mean the ji muis.. .. *evil grin*

I have exactly 1 month and 9 more days to go! kelly asked me how am i feeling, right now, i feel excited about the games, a drag just thinking about the seating arrangements and guest list..

Somehow i just don't wanna think about the wedding is just a few weeks away.. but i also want it to come quick and 'get over and done with'.. keke.. yes, my dad feels i've lost my enthusiast too.

BUT... it's all goooooodd... just remember to *breathe*
