Those who follow me on my private tweet will know my wedding date by now.
For those who didn't, would also probably have known that my wedding is set.
Insya Allah.
The wedding which was initially planned in December had to be pushed earlier due to bookings availability.
Still, I love the date and the fact that I will be spending Hari Raya Haji with Alfi as newly-weds.
Insya Allah.
Wedding plans which have been very inert since the time we got engaged, kicked into full gear now.
The minute mak andam was booked, we had to quickly have everything else booked in time.
RH Bridal was my choice.
Solely because they specialise in head dresses and that their make up is alright.
Of course they tried to squeeze every inch of me to sign up for their package which actually they did not need to because I had my mind set.
I am really an easy consumer.
If I query, it means there is a 80% chance that I will take it up.
Them avoiding my questions of course agitated the shit outta me.
I was as simple as laying down my own T&Cs that is the colour I want to wear and the make up.
I was charged additional $60 for trial make up which I thought I can do without (and why the heck should bridal companies charge for trial make up when I have signed up for their package)
They charged another $250 because I need to be made up all over again after prayers. That is one time re-make up.
Additional $50 for over 8 hours of work.
$70 duit kipas which goes to the mak andam.
When friends tell me that it is expensive or that I dah kena ketuk it did not really matter to me.
I will pay for services if I think they can ease my day.
If you think I am fussy, Alfi is more fussy and he always thinks I am being too kind.
I need to lose so much weight because I need to pick my outfits in 2 months.
Huge challenge!!
Anyone wants to sponsor for my weight loss program?
Wedding decor, wedding photographer have been handpicked and communicated
Wedding theme?
I will disclose them in time.
:)
There are a few places which we have in mind for our wedding location.
Fort Canning, Hort Park, Raffles Town Club, Asian Cultural Museum are among our choices.
I am still looking for other options.
I am thinking of having flower girls and page boys, probably 6 each.
I love kids' mess but am afraid that it will be too hard to coordinate.
What about bridesmaid?
I do not have many single ladies to be my bridesmaids.
I thought of having bridesmaid and children.
Messy?
Wedding rings.
Urgh!
Biggest headache.
I still cannot decide to go for wedding bands or another chunky one for the wedding.
Thought of Bvlgari rings but mom is against it.
I have a dream wedding and I am going to live the dream I have been having for 8 years.
I pray all will be ok.
Tough & challenging is fine.
We both have been through a lot together.
It is just going to be less than 8 months before I am Mrs Alfi.
Insya Allah. Insya Allah. Insya Allah.
"Here comes the bride.. all fat & wide"
At any point of time, you can always share your ideas and joy with me.
I am more than happy to receive it.
Signing off,
An excited bride-to-be.
