Jie Meis

Originally thought this won't be much of a problem since most of my close friends are gals. But this is a problem now!..

Been stressed over it since 2 of my close friends are getting married on this year too. Then the master said horse year born will clash with my customary, so some friends are also out liao.
Also, i prefer unmarried friends.. so those married ones also out..

So far, I have gather 3 and hoping to get 1 more to make it 4 - even number. Really hoping to find one more, if not i will have to settle for 2. Will prefer to have 4 so it is more fun and also, more hands to help.

Roughly, these are the plans i have make (subject to change):

1) Jie Mei A - in charge of taking care of my gown so other people won't trip over :p and to help me on with the gowns (its hard to zip from behind).

2) Jie Mei B - Accompany us during the day. Taking attendance at the reception table and in charge of the ang pow box at the wedding dinner.

3) Jie Mei C - Accompany us during the day. Taking attendance at the wedding dinner reception table.

4) Jie Mei D - Accompany us during the day. Help carry things / gowns.

For emcee, M has agreed to get his friends to help. I have also considered to get the following for my jie mei:

1) Ang pow - haven't decide the amount..
2) Clothing - most likely will ask them to try to wear pink or peach colour, so that will appear nicer on fotos.
3) Makeup- If they want, my makeup artist can do for them but i think got extra cost.
4) Corsages - I am thinking to find waist corsages for them to wear, it look nice.
5) A gift - haven't think of what gift though..

ROM Invitation card

This is just a sample of the card.. with the details deleted away. Just this week, i thought of designing a ecard for official invitation to my friends, and putting the details of the day and maps, so that it be useful for them. Initially wanted to send an ecard from those free cards website but they are not the kind i prefer. So in the end I source for pixs from several websites and use photoshop to add effects to the card. Heee, my brother says why I take so much effort to designing for just an ecard. Recently I have been vexed with some family matters complicated with the coming ROM. Really hope that these problems will be solved soon and the wedding preparation will be smooth sailing and peaceful.

Comments on Bridal Shops

Just to summarise my views on the following bridal shops i visited/seen. These are my personal views :- 1) J&C (Clark Quay) - Basic package: $5K. Not hard selling. Designer is very friendly and professional. Gowns concentrate more on lace. Photography is outsourced to other firms. 2) Flamingo (Tanjong Pagar) - Basic package: $5K. Not hard selling. Designer is not around when we go. The gowns are simple and creative. Photography is outsourced to other firms. 3) U Bridal (Tanjong Pagar) - Basic package: $2K+. Quite Hard selling. It is a new shop set up, so the gowns are very new but not many. Their photos are developed by Kodak, very nice. The Shop asst refused to give negatives even if we offered to pay. Give us the impression that they are not very negotiable. 4) Everbliss (Suntec, Plaza Sing) - Basic package: $2K. Very hard selling. We signed up at their road show. My personal opinion is their gowns are more towards to taiwanese style, heard that they import their gowns from Malay...

Bridal photoshoot!!

Bridal shop: Bridal concept (liang seah street) Photographer: Kit Makeup artist: Lynn 10.00am: We reach bridal concept shop but it is not open. Lynn happen to walk by and told us we are supposed to report to the studio (which is at a nearby building), but kit told us previously to meet at the shop leh?.. Lynn told us our appt is supposed to be 11am, not 10am as the other couple book first on today date. But eeping told us to come at 10am leh?.. So we have to go out jalan while lynn get the other couple ready first.. shucks should have sleep more at home if we know it is 11am for us.. 11.00am: Makeup and dress up for the 1st costume (Ming chu costume). The hairstyle and makeup make me looked like the "san mei" in the drama show "Jie Da huan xi". M keep joking and i am quite irritated. 12.00am: Photographer Kit reach..and start photographing the first costume. Change into the victorian costume with new hairstyle done by Lynn and take more fotos. 1plus: Break for lun...
