What's next?

So, as per the previous post, our Catering & Deco is done!

In my list, I have also ordered our door gifts. Yes, I kiasu you know! But it just makes me feel safe that my $$$ goes somewhere you see. Still, I have yet to decide what door gift to put in for non-muslims because, definitely, muslims would love the door gift. Simple yet meaningful and of an everyday usage too! Well, if you are in my list of invitation, you have to come to find out.

Let me emphasise that My Wedding is not a GRAND WEDDING that I am splurging so much into. It is more of the "After Marriage Finances" that we are concerned of. Okay, it's not like we are not ready for marriage life, it's just the economy that we worry about. You must prepare an umbrella to shelter a sudden downpour am I right or wrong? (Okay, this sounds so melayu peribahasa).

I have started off a few of my guest list. I am covering my connections that I am inviting which is close to me only. My invitations are limited and I have to carefully select my invitees. And here as well I am going to check on the guest list that my parents are planning too. I would not want them to just give out to anybody just like that but these guests will end up not coming. That aside, I will need to also start planning my itinerary.

Don't be shocked, I have 8 dayang2 (bridesmaids)! It is only fair enough that these girls shine on my big day. Fiancé is pretty cool with having lots of bridesmaids. Of course, it's me that is going to give the tasks out to them despite him having just 4 groomsmen. No matter what the number is, we would be glad to have them on our side. Well, they are only popping out during the cake cutting march in anyways. So they do not have much jobs to settle on. Except for maybe 2-3 main bridesmaids. Lain2 is to let them tangkap jambu laaaaaaaaaa. I have settled on their outfits and items, so I'm relieved!

Now we are just browsing time by time on deco's etc. In any case, our pre-marriage course is coming by real soon! Yes, you know we are so excited! Like, now we feel it that its already almost a year to our most awaited day. Gosh! 1 and a half years engaged just like that!

I am basically done with almost everything that we need. Just one more major thing. The venue. Praying hard that it is avail and no change in prices. Really, fingers crossed. And I am really hoping our venue to be the one for our wedding. Its the best for the both of us.

I have no pictures uploaded in my macbook because I am rarely on it exceptionally when I want to download songs and watch dramas or movies online. Talking about songs, we are still for songs to be played for our cake cutting and march in. Maybe, I need to listen to the radio more often.

Last thing, work. Work is a such a pain these days ever since. Really a mess. Like, arrogant people just goes through the entire place without a pain. But these people are those that is very fishy. Fishy people that acts professional or what they would call themselves as practitioners, are most likely to stab you on the back. They will be those that is blind and wants others to follow them. LOL! This time, I do not respect the new persons. Bcos, if there is no respect to me and others, they do not deserve one. So, all they will get is to be disrespected. Foolstop. Talking about this just makes be burn live fire now. I shall put a stop for the day. Goodnight everyone!!! Happy Holidays!

Major booking checked!

Yesterday me & Mr.E as well as bestie & bf headed down to Expo for the Mega Wedding & Lifestyle.

Mainly bcos we need to settle on our deco & catering. We did enjoy AJ City Wedding food tasting session. Ni betul, sedap and we fell in love wif the deco jugak. But, we just try our luck to see if expo might have what we need. Better price perhaps.
First thing we entered, i received Farah Diana Catering's brochure. One glance, WOW! I suke! Price is good too. So, apelagi, simpan fr the last. Then, bestie stumble upon Signature Bridal. Okay, can't deny their outfits and deco is Superb! So Mr.E and I let them settle in (dorg almost eh nk engage them) and we walked down till we saw photogrpahy section. And Pre-wed shoot! Ingat tkdelh smpi nk buat across the borders. Tengok2, skali, Mr.E agreed to take up! Wah, he tk reject lak. Bcos the price is reasonably good eh.. Tk tipu. Apelagi, kite down! Haha.
Checkd on bestie, masih tercegat kt booth tu. When I asked them the price, i terus "jom lets go jalan!" Pls eh, mahal kedegak! Its nt like we are anak raja okay..
So head over to Demure Wedding booth. This sounds mean bt Mr.E and I psycho bestie to take it. Its good fr them too okay. Its like price is good. Everything in. What's there to lose kan? So yes, downpayment jugak lh dorg.
After which, we head over to Farah Diana. I terus mintk duduk k. Tkyh bbual panjang. Hahaha! Look into their muenu. Food tasting. Sedap! I didnt expect lah kn sedap. Den see their deco, okay juge. I tak mintk nk letak fresh flowers keliling venue or dais k. After much thoughts, Mr.E agreed too. And gt their Freebie! Totally happy!
So now im fine tuning to deposit our dj n kompang services. Den the last is the venue. Im praying hard all will go well. Insyaallah.
And yah, bestie is getting married the same year as us! Didnt see it coming but truly happy for them too!

Till then bloggers.

All hidden

Got late news of the death of late Shafiqah Laila, Kak Anne's last daughter. I have nt contacted them for a year. N this sudden news just shocked me. Bbyg break the news only now tht she just gt the news. Its been months back! Kak Anne have been looking for me bt she cant.

I have mixed feelings of whether they can accept how things are. Like i cant contact them directly n stuff. Bt, knowing they are still looking fr me, i knew they cn accept the situation.

I feel really useless tht i am not there at their lowest. I knew it wud break their heart even more tht i no longer come to visit them. But how am i to tell them all this situation? Maybe, they knew abt all this. If nt, why wud i just go missing for a year, right?

I miss them. Really miss them alot. I wanna hug them n tell them how much i misses them. They are always in my prayers. I wonder how they are. Grieving? Depress? Blaming themselves for the death? I hope they are coping. I really hope they do.

Till then, my heart hurts typing all this. I cant bare to not be there to see all this.

USS Halloween Horror Night 4!

Hello Everyone!

Another post again.

Its October, So it is the SPOOKY month. Oh yes! 

What we decided at the last minute was to enjoy USS Halloween Horror Night 4 this year! I am sucha scaredy cat in Haunted Houses. REALLY! I would usually scream all the way! Well, that was the last one I had in Thailand pulling my Lil Bro's shirt from the back hiding my face. HAHA!

This time round, The first Haunted House was The Lab. The queue was damn LONG! We were stuck there for almost 2 hours plus! Till we even decide to get drinks, hot dogs, corn dog etc. HAHA! Thats not all, we almost had a fight with some CHINA GIRLS coming in through our queue just like that! And they were talking in their language behind us like as if it was our fault! Okay, anyways, tht was the worst Haunted HOUSE! There were dangling body parts and One upside down body, wriggling on our paths. Seriously, I SCREAMED because it was just so gross and touching me. EEEEW! There were so many ALIENS around! Really alot! It was fine with the Aliens invading us and all till the last part where there were 2 big Aliens slapping their hands out at us. I was hugging my BBYG and we stopped because they were hitting on our legs! So I screamed "JANGAN PUKUL! JANGAN PUKUL PUKUL! NAK JALAN!" And we scram our way through! Damn funny lah when I came out.

Because that was by far the longest queue ever, The smokers had their puffs and toilet break. Oh ya, there was a total of 9 of us! Even my colleagues tagged along with us at the last minute when BBYG said she wants to sell off 2 more tickets and I had to help deal another ticket for another colleague. So, we proceeded over finding and looking at which house to go with the shortest time. We walked pass Mati Camp and it was like showing 2 hours! Walked again through Egypt Area, where most there was some Red Indians (One just like POCAHONTAS y'know!) Took photos with just one or two of them and we walk off to ACCELERATOR RIDE. Okay, all ride except me and BBYG bcos I had to accompany her to the ladies. 

Then, we checked the TRANSFORMER RIDE, it was like also 2 hours plus! Then walk again with some other ghosts at the SESAME ST and photo taking. Okay, that one geli k cos there were like 2 crawling around. 

We walked on to check on the Last Show for Jack's Circus. Afterwhich we decided to go to BOOGEYMAN. Okay, this one also have one dangling body and hanging cloths everywhere. This time round, I pulled Mr. Fiance around. There were many girls with dolls. And all the closets with the PEE KA BOO. I never liked that. But I only screamed once. HAHA!

So, we then head on back for THE MUMMY RIDE. BBYG with her legs braces, opened it up and head on for the ride too. LUCKILY, nothing happened. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. Then, we just try on Mati Camp again, and this time it was already at a shorter time. A very fast queue, we went inside Mati Camp House, okay, this one not that creepy. There were more on soldiers, some nurses trying to poke me with their needles and shaking beds! HAhahaha! Done with that, puffs and head to the last show. By then, it was already almost 1.15am for the show. The show lasted till about 2am. Quite boring lah the show, but mayb bcos everyone was pretty much tired by then.

CAB and head over to BBYG's crib with Mr. Fiance, grab some light snacks and drinks, sent her home and took our helmets for us to head back home too. Tiring but fun.

Mr. Fiance had to work morning shift like just hours away. Pity him but appreciate all his sacrifices. I mean, he always tries to tag along in any outings as possible even is he had to work morning shift the next day. At the worst part is, he told me he is doing OT. Without any sleep from last night! Make me all Guilty for this you see. Nonetheless, he will never to fail to be the BEST. He seem not to understand some rationals in some ways (well, somtimes) but he will, after sometime ofcourse! The reason being why I love this MAN is because, he learns from mistakes (Well, I learned mine too but at TIMES, it can be pretty much difficult ok......) Despite that, he never gives up hope, even he did almost wanted to. We can quarrel at almost everything at times, really every small things, but we will still LOVE each other the same. There might just be a Blessing in Disguise. Not now, but maybe soon, months, years. Who knows right? 

In the midst of all this Wedding Plans that we are having, we are really cracking up to find as much vendor quotations as possible. But ofcos, without help from our closest people, all this wouldn't even be possible. We just hope, everything will go as planned.

Okay, this is what I've got! SCROLL DOWNNNNN.....

XOXO

Deposits and more deposits

This post is just another update.

We are pretty much quite confirm on depositing for our Bridal + Videography + Photography. All under one roof! YES. It is so worth it. Why not right? If we can keep it into a budget then we should just go ahead with it. I think for very BTB bloggers that I've seen do mention on De'mure Weddings which has this popular 3 in 1 package that you will definitely not be able to get elsewhere. (I did my homework okay....) And to burst our budget taking separately is not what we wanted. Mr Fiance has no obligations to it as he finds it worthy as well! I told you the Mr don't mind at all since it is in our budget. So, as our previous appt with them had to be postponed due to unforeseen circumstances, I will be making another appt with De'mure again end of the month, Insyaallah, with the deposit.

Next thing on my list is to the quotations that I have in hand for catering and decor. Well, I have 2 in mind. One is definitely from Comel & Molek Decor which I am still waiting for his quotation. (He is sometimes fast, sometimes takes ages!) Im fine with it but just I need to look into my budget if it fits. If it doesn't, I am going to look into the other that I am interested on. I do have other quotations. For Cahaya Nanie, it is super cheap I tell you! But I have tasted their food, it is pretty bad. I don't quite liked it. I am not a fussy eater, but I do get worried if it is really bad you see. I got Anggun's packages as well. It awed me BUT is runs off a whole lot from our Budget. Really alot! So, I give it a pass. I loved Jentayu's decor but I know it will not be fitting in as well. Recently I found Q'yraDesign Wedding. Speedy Response! (I LIKE!) Decor looks really good as they collaborated with ISS Wedding, which they are really GOOD! The package they sent me fits into our Budget really well! So, I am really waiting for Comel & Molek to get back before I can decide to have Food Tasting session with the selected one. I REALLY HOPE THE FOOD IS GOOD ON BOTH SIDES! I really want to get it done and just pay here and there. ~ NO MORE PENING KEPALA LAH LIDDAT, Y'KNOW!~

Once I am able to settle this 2 Main things in my list, I can settle other more stuffs. The countdown numbers are getting lesser and it is more worrying then ever! Mr Fiance is now "Step Cool Abg2 GTB". Because he knows that I am outsourcing and doing the budgeting (Includes a Budget Sheet!) Mane nak dapat Tunang like me eh? I do still get him to outsource some other stuffs. Mainly what the GTBs are suppose to lah! Macam Kompang, Entertainment. That's all he needs to do at this moment lah. There will be more I tell you............... Tak boleh bagi muke he releks2 eh! HAHA!

I have enquired on Gubahan Trays as well. But, 2016 slots are not opened yet. Okay, maybe the one that I wanted. So, I am still enquiring around. Some do tell me to take Ribbons & Ties (Tu my sis wedding she used them bcos of "Kenalan") But, I wanted to check on something different. I actually loved Bonito by Bob's Gubahan Trays. Sadly, he is not taking in any slots. Not sure if he might do it for 2016. *Hoping*

Henna I don't have to worry because that can be settled with Mr Fiance's side. (Nasib lah kan ade!) 

Wedding Cakes. That I have like really alot I can choose from. And I know the budget I need to put in. Phew!!

Sireh Dara, Sireh Junjung and Bunga Paha. For Bunga Paha, I have alot from my sister's wedding which she had not used! Really man! She burst her initial budget! Just Sireh Dara and Sireh Junjung. That, I will see how lh kan. I know a few that is making it.

Invitations Cards, we plan to just do it in JB. Not sure if by the time my sis has time to design for us instead, and we just do printing. That would really save me!

That almost covers most of the things in my list. And now I tengok, pening-pening. 

It is not easy as ABC to kahwin-kahwin ni sume okay. Percaya lah ye..... But I just hope for a smooth sailing one. Insyaallah dipermudahkan, Amin.

Till then!

Outdated much?

I know I had forgotten or kept most of my sister's wedding. Oh well. Up here, a few shots of it. :D

So.....

Next week I am going down over to meet my Bridal that I have been pestering and dragging my Fiancé along to quickly book them. They are not exactly whom I want but they have a very good package! Like "GRAB lah, ape lagi!" Furthermore, I actually look into both their makeup and outfits. Makeup looks fine. Outfits, just okay lah. Well, you don't always get best of both worlds! 

Wait till this list be striked off. Hehek!

I am now in the office, have no events at all for 2 days straight already! I am purely on boredom. But ohwell, I am waiting for the clock to strike 6pm. And poof! Meeting Fiancé and his friends to catch The Purge Anarchy tonight. Will update in the next post for ratings.

Till then peepos!

I miss my Long Hair!

Eversince my hair has been this "nowhere" length, I missed my LONG HAIR.

Hye Readers! 

Okay, Let's get away from the Wedding Preps for a moment. Pretty sad that we missed this Sep 2014's Mega Wedding. It's fine, we will go early next year so that we will be able to set our minds on our Wedding.

Meanwhile, I am down with Flu, Cough & Fever. A very good combo indeed! So, stayed home and eating porridge. Boring. But that's all I can do for the day.

Mr. Fiance has been really worried about me being home sick. He will call to ask if I wanted to eat anything. Whatsapping me, and again calling me to check. HAHA! So sweet of him. 

Whenever I think of him today, I was thinking of when he would help me to paste those nail stickers again.

Cute right?! How can it not be!

All this made me reminisce the moments at this time of the year last year. We were preparing for our Engagement and yet to choose the right date.

And now, this year, we are saving the date for our Wedding! Time flies real fast this year. Oh, pls let me breathe for a little while more.

In between all the wedding planning, Mr. Fiance has something in mind as well. We have just ordered ARAI Helmets. Not just one, but two! HAHA. That costs a bomb in my pockets! No more spending like this anymore! So, as a motivation, he would be excitedly passing his Class 2A so that he can wear those helmets with the New Bike. 

HAHA

What would I do without him? The sadness to my tears and the happiness to my smiles (I always do smile okay.....). InsyaAllah, all will go on smoothly.

Our next to do checklist:

• Booking of venue
• To register for the Pre-Marriage Course (Super Duper Important!)

Till then, Cherios!
