This few months, my blog will be flooded with wedding related posts.
From frustration, to excitement, and back to frustration... Little did I know that wedding preparation could cause this kind of roller coaster cum ROJAK feelings. The wedding stress is coming on to both of us and we have so much disagreement that is so frequent, unlike those dating times when we were carefree and easy.
Going all out now, we have 3 MONTHS to our big day. I thought my last post mentioned only 5 months previously??? And I still haven't make my wedding cards! Faint!!!
Shopping Spree at IKEA and Courts
And so, we went for a shopping spree at IKEA Tampines and Courts last weekend to buy some items for our bridal room, which needs quite an amount of work for touching up. We managed to buy toilet mirror, shelvings, bed linen, mattress protector and comforter. All that cost about $400. Gosh! I wonder how parents can buy these household items and still have spare cash and savings for their daily expenses. I'm super B.R.O.K.E.
Funny thing is, we spend about 2 hours to decide on the bed items. LOL. Thread counts, bed size, quilt size, blah blah blah... so difficult to match these things! Seriously, I looking forward to sleep on the bed linen we have purchased. I think it was 700 threadcount? *oooh.... so soft...<dreams dreams>*
JB Visit and Home Recce
Last Monday we went to JB again to visit the wedding card shop. To our much horror, it was CLOSED! Well, it was partly my fault for overlooking their off days that was stated on their namecard. Many shops were not opened on Monday. I guess they are avoiding the Monday Blues. LOL. I felt so guilty that my in-laws had made a wasted trip. We are going again this weekend (just the 2 of us) and I pray so much that there will be no massive jam :(
And so, we proceeded back to SG to take a look at our BTO progression. Fortunately, a nice contractor brought us to an available unit of a different block for us to view the house layout. It felt surreal. Wow.
But the house is god damn small! I think, after placing all the furniture in, you probably have to climb over the furniture to get from one place to another. The MBR is the same size as the common room. So what is the point of calling it MBR? With such sizes for new BTOs, I feel grateful that I did not ballot for a 5Rm flat. Seriously, a resale flat is much more worth it...
Wedding Cake Discussion
We met with our wedding cake patisserie to discuss on the design and do some tasting. It was delicious but too sweet for me. Well, that's because I do not have a sweet tooth. But hey, one thing to strike off my "to-do-list"! YAY! And so, we have settled on the design and color theme for the cake. I believe its going to be awesome and I cannot wait to see the final product.
Honeymoon Accomodation
I'm happy that we have booked for our stay too! It is that accommodation which I fell in love with at first sight. He likes it too for the fact that the room provides PS3. -_-
With stay booked, and flight booked, we now have to place booking for car hire and probably, get a discounted pass for various attractions. I dreamt that I went on a skydive in my sleep yesterday. LOL. Egg-cited!!!
So these are the things that were covered in 2 weeks. This craziness will continue till our honeymoon is over. It's really tiring and I don't understand why is it so easy to plan events for companies or anybody else, as compared to planning for your own event.
