updates

I know I haven been updating for the longest time... But I have a good reason to be bz...


I have been bz at work (my project is in a mess), and bz with the preparations for my big day!!


And we have confirmed our banquet location and bridal salon!! Im so happy cos I am so so happy cos I think our ballroom is very pretty with a long long march in and I love the gowns from my bridal salon. Am going to have a gown with a long train so that it’ll look nice with my long march in.


Strange it seems, one week after Jeff’s POV we settled everything (except the ROM location cause waiting for them to get back to me on the food). We filed our marriage notice, found our solemnizer within a mere 5 mins (while I read online that some couples had a hard time finding a solemnizer and some even pre booked their solemnizers about 6 mths to 12 mths before their ROM date!!), settled our banquet location, and settled our bridal package, much to net and my surprise. We only visited 2 bridal salons (bs) and made our decision. Initially both net and I thought that we will visit at least 5 salons in order to make a decision but things just happens so smoothly. R recommended us to 1 of the bs along tanjong pagar. We made appointment with the bs and we reached tanjong pagar early and when I called the bs, the person told me I can take my time and best if I can arrive later. I think she was attending to another customer.


Since we were there early, I saw the bs that I aimed in the bridal magazine. So I told net and sis to take a look there. Happens so that when we entered, sis saw her old friend, the designer for her wedding gown and we began talking. I tried some gowns and we were offered quite a good package. But because we already made appointment with the other BS, we went there to see what they had to offer. Net didn't really like the feel of the BS and we didn't really like their photography. So we went back to the first BS and made our payment. And that's it!! My BS is settled!! And I think we had quite a good deal plus the gowns from our BS is known to be very pretty. :)


Ive been bz with my wedding preparations since aug but no progress at all. And just 1 week after Jeff’s POV, everything is settled. Even what we thought would be the biggest headache was settled in less than 3 hrs. amazing! Reminds me of Veron’s story of how she started Growth Vision. Initially she was undecided whether she wanted to start Growth Vision. But after attending Jeff’s workshop, she made up her mind and settled everything (printed the brochures, found the office, started a corporate account etc) within 3 days. Of course our story cant be compared to hers, but still its amazing how things just goes so smoothly.


So now I am waiting patiently for our hotel to call for our invitation cards and our BS to call for me to choose my ROM dress and to do my gown designing. I am very excited but there is nothing I can do now but wait and start losing weight and looking pretty for my big day and start searching for designs of gowns that I like. :)
