Busy weekends

By God's grace, we managed to squeeze in this round of PMC classes. Total of 7 sessions and we'll finish our classes by end nov.

Yesterday was our 1st session. Including us there are 6 couples at the facilitators hse. Hope we will take away valuable lessons from this course for our marriage and be more prepared and ready by then. Building a strong foundation for marriage is really impt.

Our membership class is coming to an end soon. To end the class, we are having a "Power encounter" weekend at Gallery hotel. That is, we have to stay overnight at the hotel. There will be a lot of teaching, ministering and fellowship i guess. Hope the meeting will really bring us up the next level in our walk with Abba Father.

ROM

Oh well I cant wait to choose a gown for my big day. Really looking forward to the many "happening" things next year. I guess my ROM most prob on the 15th March Sat. Cos we think beta to hold it during sch hols. I ll keep my dearies posted! Pls pls make time to come for my ROM ok. I ll love to have my dearest frens celebrate my wedding with me.
I ll probably do more planning in Nov or dec during my sch hols.

So far haven decided on venue, theme, caterer etc yet. Will do some research when I ve the time.

Change in ROM date

Hey dearies,
We have decided to change our ROM date to next year. No confirmed date yet (maybe feb or march) but definitely after we have attended the PMC course.
Praise God He answered our prayers. We have been praying and seeking God for our wedding and last sundae finally our prayers are answered!
We both felt at peace with this decision and immense joy too, cos we know favour of God is upon our marriage and He wants to bless our wedding! What a privilege. :)

Thankyou God for guiding us everystep. My or rather our burden has been lifted up! Hooray! Look forward to a blessed, lovely ROM next year! :)

Pro 16:9 In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. Amen.

Wedding banquet

We had a fruitful weekend looking around at hotels to hold our banquet. We shortlisted a few. Sat we went down to Chijmes, Raffles hotel, meritus mandarin etc... We'll roughly need abt 35 tables in all. So far I think Chijmes is awesome but the downside is the many pillars and the max sitting capacity of 32 tables.
Shangri-la is top on our list too. I quite like the ambience. The garden villas etc.. plus the ballroom is huge! Menu also not too bad. And there's already a WL for the dates we are looking at!
Heard that Grand Corpthorne has very nice ballroom too! Will go recky soon!
Plus maybe will look at Ritz.

Ok will update you all again!

Wedding shows

I am looking for a place to hold my wedding banquet. I prefer to find a ballroom with a long aisle as I plan to get a gown with long train. Shortlisted 2 places so far, Chijmes and The Legends.
Planning to go to this wedding show.

A Starry, Starry Wedding at The Grand Marquee The Legends Fort Canning Park 29 September 2007, Saturday 6.30pm - 10pm $25 per couple http://www.legendsfortcanning.com/fortcanning/Weddingbanquet.htm

Found a really good website http://www.singaporebrides.com/ Very informative and I recently joined the forum!

Hope it will be useful for my frens who are also planning for their wedding! :)

Bridal

Our first bridal experience was quite nightmare. This BS M*M tried to hard sell us their packages.. OMG we were stuck there for the longest time and lucky we didnt make any impulse purchase.

Forget abt the terrible experience. The 2nd botique I went to JWB. This time thanks for gir and hubby we manage to get a good package deal. I tried 2 gowns and love them! Esp the 1st one with alot of laces and ribbons with the long train...I truly felt like a princess! Short of a tiara. The 2nd tube one is stunning too.... I love their laces and swarovski crystals...

The negotiation took us nearly 4hrs! But it's was all worth it cos we got a good deal. Hopefully the mua, photographer, co-ordinator are patient and trustable. After paying so much really abit worried how their after sales svc will be.

Think sept/oct i'll be choosing my rom gown! So excited abt it.... Hope can find something really nice.

Oh finally the hdb balloting is open. Quite many areas.. but limited units. Anyway we are gg for it!! Really really hope to get "lucky" and able to get the units we want. We ll know by end Aug.

This is such a special season of my life that's y I wanna blog it down for everyone of my frens to share in my joy (and stress) of wedding preparation to the next phase of my life.

Will share more. Hope there's good news to share soon!
