After numerous discussion on who will be our official photographer for the second reception, I am indeed delighted when Fendi drew green light to my choice. He even said 'I know you only choose the best for our day. I couldn't agree more'.

So I decided to go on with one to one discussion with the OP's PA. I texted her and we are going to meet up this Friday at Pavilion. Awesome~ I am looking forward to discuss the future with them and tell them exactly what we need and how we want it to be. Till Friday...

For the meantime, I am still deciding on the official colour for both reception. We both had agreed to 'no-pink' and we both love blue. So I'm thinking of blending royal blue, cobalt blue and classic gold-brown. That is for our 2nd reception. For my side's reception, I prefer a lighter colour. That day I was thinking about the peacock colour. It's different, but I'm afraid the cost will become higher since there isn't any demand on the colour!

Hurmm...aqua blue is not bad at all. So I am still indecisive on colour. Wish I can drop by Jakel any time sooner so I can view those colours with my own eyes. It might look nice in pictures, but look odd in real.

Hello there. After a week of having fever, flu and cough, I hope today I am back on my feet! Seriously it was such a trouble when I feel my body has no more resistance to sickness. Even today I feel my right foot is swelling. *_*

BTW, yesterday was my 1st proposal anniversary. No fancy dinner and all. Just a sweet moment together, me having dinner alone and he drinking hazelnut tea with pearl or something. We were at Pavilion. He bought a pair of shoes at Dunhill, the one he had been aiming for such a long time. So he got it! Thought of hunting his wedding band too, however we had to postponed.

We got two preview tickets from YES friends. I was not sure the title but it has something to do with Christianity, devil and exorcism. I didn't like watching those kind of movies, but it wasn't that bad at all. I just don't like the screeching sound made by those nails. It was so annoying as I still can hear the sound after a day!

Oh yeah. We have not confirmed anything for reception in Perlis as we leave it to abah. He called yesterday, asking Fendi the exact date and time. He wasn't talking about Tasoh ceremony, but his concern is more towards the home ceremony, which will be held on the 18th. He is just a villagers lover. That worries me. I am afraid I'm going to be too tired to smile the day after the reception at Tasoh. *sigh* Like all the bride-to-be, i pray that everything is going to run smoothly during those events.

It is indeed a gloomy day for me. Everything was slow and live-less. But I would love to share my ideas for our wedding. I have actually thought about it for ages, but have not yet decide on it. Too many ideas are not doing me any good, it seemed...Lol

I was browsing a few informative blogs when I came to a peacock theme! It was awesome. I love the blue peacock colour. It is new, fresh and never been used? But its not odd. I think it can be blended to our main colour, dark peony or silver. What say you?

But the problem with the theme is that it will narrow down my choices of flowers as well as the decoration. And a lot of feathers have to be used. I am not sure if the vendors are able to cater to our idea. Need to discuss with fendi and get back to those vendors asap.

In the meantime, let me go through those websites and get myself more confused! lol


To all b2b, do check these out!

It was such a great feeling to be able to rest for a few days. Fendi was unwell when he decided to come over to Johor. We planned to meet the vendors and settle as many things as possible as we might not have anymore time left to go to JB.

We actually didn't set an appointment with them, so it was kind of random. So some of them were not free at the moment I called, while others went outstation and were not in JB. So we had to postponed the meeting to another fine day....which I am yet to know when.

We then went to Singapore to visit a friend. Well, obviously anybody can never resist the temptation of Orchard. Shop till drop!! Went to ion and bought something for a wedding gift. That was superb!(then I realized, this might be the reason why I dreamt a very weird dream last night----so I get a new thing to be adore)

I love Singapore for some reasons. The cleanliness, and not to mention their effective public transportation. SMRT is the best! Wootwoot. Theirs are second best after Hong Kong. Of course! So after we went down at City Hall station, we strolled along the bay and saw Miramar Hotel. The one with the ship on to of the building. Awesome sightseeing. Wonderful coffee. The best night ever!

At approximately 8 pm, we went back to JB. It was a short visit, but I surely will keep it in my long term memory. LOL
