Ring Pillow


Hee, this is my ring pillow and I'm still trying to enhance the look of it. Once my wedding day I will hang my rings (or considering hanging fake ones) on the wire.

This is consider an alternative type of ring pillow. I don't really want the normal ring pillow, looks boring. Probably I buy a butterfly or dragonfly to put within the roses, and tie a big ribbon on the pot. Once my wedding is over, I think I can sell it at a good price.

Floral Garland Headpiece Part 2


I have completed both floral garlands for my future nieces. Luckily it fits them snugly. Pretty isn't it!

Floral Garland Headpiece Part 1


I have almost completed one of the headpiece, except that I have not add ribbons and maybe accompaniment flowers to it. Nevertheless, I'm damn proud of it. Since my nieces are not here, I can only ask Sunny to pose, so that I can take pictures.









Haha, how crazy I am. Sunny gladly takes his position. One, two, three, SMILE *Click*

Disappointment

Despite the raving reviews on Singapore Brides forum, I was disappointed with the services by Love Droplets. As much as I like their style on decoration, their services are terrible.

I went to Singapore Brides forum and saw the raving reviews Love Droplets has, I went to their website and one of their ring pillows caught my eye.

To my surprise, I like their wrist corsage too. Simple, classy and my sisters can keep it after the wedding. Immediately I sent an email asking for quotations. After two days, there is no reply. Despite that I went to trouble to retrieve the password for my unused Multiply account, logged in and left a comment. It's been a total of 6 days and I havent got a reply from them.

Yesterday, I decided to forsake them and went to my florist to check if they did this style of wrist corsage. Luckily they did and is able to ask them to improvise on the decoration of wrist corsage.

As to the ring pillow, I guess I have a slight idea on how to diy mine. As much as I wanted to buy from Love Droplets, but I am unwilling to wait for them for one week to respond to my email. 2 days should be the lead time set for them to acknowledge any forms of message.

Anxiety


Most of my invitation cards are ready, except those for relatives. I don't intend to do stenciling, as parents spend too much time finding out relatives' full name. I don't have time to wait. Next week, I shall spend time organising meet ups. Very soon, you will hear from me. And yes, Esther is the first to receive my card, and she like it.

I have solve my 喜饼 problem too. Thanks to Hongxiu's advice, I can actually buy vouchers from cake shops and let my relatives collect themselves! The voucher is valid for a year. This morning I passed by Prima Deli and enquired. They actually do sell 8 and 10 dollar voucher. They can choose the type of cakes and tarts they want when they collect it.

My immediate problem is that the solemniser is unreachable. It seems like he is overseas and I badly need to meet him and let him sign the agreement form. If I can't contact him by next Tuesday, I have to start searching for one again! There's also deadline to file for ROM..if i missed it......

Butterflies

I'm getting butterflies in my stomach, wedding preparation just not going smoothly for me. It doesn't help when I've a P6 class, and PSLE is just around the corner.

It's worse when you have a mother, who is so fickle minded. Her ears are so soft, and she want to change everything we have compromised. Sometimes I wonder it's her wedding or my wedding. Since it's my wedding, why can't I do as I want.

I could only just sigh, and pray for determination to complete my wedding stuffs after work everyday.

Not ready

My invitation cards will be sent out late. Paint took around 10 days to dry, yes I'm not kidding. Apparently, I have no place to air my cards! My cards are over the place and Dear's stacks of comic books proved to be extremely helpful now.


The punching of holes took a long time too. Dear took 2 days to make 7 cards. It's damn difficult to punch the eyelets in.
After all these are done, I need to print labels and hopeful I can mail out soon.
