Whole week I was too bothered about the banquet issues that I had almost forgotten that I actually have some stuffs that I am overjoyed with. My gowns. I love my gowns. I went to Bliss on the same day as the day I went for food tasting at PHO. Food tasting in the evening, and Bliss appointment was in the afternoon. Nel accompanied me to Bliss. Out of most of the friends, she is like most concerned with my wedding. She actually took leave to accompany me for my gown trials. Sad thing is that cannot confirm if she can take leave on my actual day, nor can confirm if she can be part of the jiemei entourage. Sure will be very fun with her ard.
I had confirmed my wedding gown (WG) during my previous fitting, and evening gown (EG) in the previous previous fitting. Gorgeous is the word to describe the WG. Wahaha... So when I went down on Tuesday with Mummy and Nel, my main purpose was to select my outdoor gown and also to take our measurements (Darling's MTM pants and my vital stats for amendments to be made to the gown). And I wanted to show my Mummy the WG and EG that we had selected.
Outdoor gowns were very disappointing. Nothing to my fancy at all. Shall select on my next appointment which is the final fitting already. Hopefully there are some pretty gowns available for selection then.
Wedding gown, as usual, fabulous. It has the 'wow' factor. I am really happy with the WG.
My co-ordinator Jenny asked if I dare to try a more outrageous colour for my EG. I told her that it was the colour that I had in mind coz I had a colour theme in mind already. So Jenny took another EG and the moment I saw it, I was like "Wow! This is the gown!" Fitted me almost perfectly, and the colour suits me damn well. Wahaha... When I stepped out of the fitting room, Nel, Mummy and Darling were like "very nice, take this!" I also had the same notion, but anyway I tried on the previous EG (which is dark blue btw) just to show them and let them make the comparision. Both Mummy and Nel had not seen the blue EG before, only Darling and I were present when we confirmed the EG. No 'wow' factor when I wore the blue EG. Haha.. And so I forsake the blue EG that I had previously chosen and settled for my new EG. Super duper delighted with the new EG.
Darling and I still have yet to confirm what outfits we wanna take for our photoshoot which is like 3 weeks away. WG (2 different hairdos), EG, outdoor gown, Kua. We still have one more. We dowan to take those Victorian or Japanese or Korean style photos. I wanna take others leh. Maybe take a short gown for photo shoot! Keke.. Shall decide on my next appointment which is next week.
Yet to confirm also is the venue to take our outdoor photoshoot. I only know that I wanna go to Botanical Gardens coz there is a dilapidated house there which I like very much (from the photos of other BTBs).
