After a serious talk on the differences we are facing, we finally managed to sort it all out and agree that we should be doing what we believe in and not let external factors affect us. Glad we managed to talk it out and come to a consensus together.
Meanwhile, preparations for the big day starts! And I am getting more excited now. (:
Wedding venue.
After very serious discussion and consideration of all factors, we agreed on lunch instead of dinner. Not mainly just on cost factor, but also on the long hours if we chose dinner. Both of us are the chop chop kind and prefer to finish it fast instead of dragging it through the day and making us very tired the whole day. Though I have to say I would still prefer dinner due to the "atmosphere" and feel, but come to think of it I do not think I will fully enjoy myself if I were to be that tired. So wedding lunch it will be!
Venue wise.. after a viewing of several hotels, we are now more inclined towards Marriott. Superb location, near to the MRT, totally sheltered in the event of rain, nice ambience and most importantly, we loved the Grand Ballroom they are offering us for our 18 to 20 tables. Love the grandness of the whole place and even to the reception area, everything was so grand.
Wedding Date.
November would be too rush for us to prepare so we would actually prefer December 2014 or January 2015. All the Saturdays for Dec 2014 were fully taken up so we were left with only January 2015. He leaves me to decide on the date so I would most probably choose 24th January 2015.
Pre-Wedding Photo Shoot.
We will be having 2 pre-wedding photoshoots. First in the Philippines this coming Feb and the next in Singapore. He wants to do it in these 2 countries because there is a meaning to it. Even the photoshoot style which we will be doing is different from others. And the suit color he is choosing.. OMG.
I think he is more hiao than me.....
Meanwhile my simple gown is still in the making.. Decided to tailor made one for myself :)
Needa buy heels and accessories!
Bridal Package
I do not think we are taking up any bridal packages at the moment.. We would most likely be doing it ala-carte because he wants it different from others. Might cost more but we have not really calculate how much more it will cost.
There are still many more things to plan.. but I am enjoying it! Can be quite stressed at times though.
Looking forward to the big day˜

On a side note, I noticed that I have been travelling too much.. Just went Batam in November, then Bintan in December, Batam again in January, Philippines in Feb, Bali in April and then now we are considering New Zealand in August.
I need more money!!
