Hello Universe!

Welcome ... henceforth, will be mostly about Our Story and hopefully more decades of stories ahead of us,
in this now-life-long journey of marriage, and yeah, maybe that includes all the bling-blings in between. =)

About 10 yrs of long (and sometimes twisted) engagement...then just got civilly married in 2009...
and we just did it again in a church, exactly a year after --- last 28th of July 2010 @ 3pm
---a dream come true vintage themed wedding!!! Hooray!!!

The Bouquet Inspiration

Oh my...................
I don't think I'd wanna throw this away.


I must put up a signboard somewhere that I'm not really THAT into Flowers. Oh but hey, I love them when I see them, not just INTO them, you know what I mean? So that's why I don't know what flowers to pick for my bouquet, needless to say for the whole wedding itself but Thank Heavens, I have a flower faery/friend/wedding coordinator Tisha to confide with. Teehee!
Else, I might go ahead with the thought of having ALL ORIGAMI to do the works. (but I still DO think it's a cool idea though) Hehe

And seeing this inspiration, my eyes sure beamed with my heart. Now let's figure out how to handmade one soon to match my (not yet found) wedding gown..
Hmm mmm mmm

The Food Matters



Their website tells proudly how their food tastes as good as they look and by far, I've got best recommendations from reliable sources too, so what better choice among others then --- and with pretty packages available that fits our pockets,too. Teehee! :)

And yes, we love wedding cupcakes....


And wait wait....there better be a mini SUSHI bar of course.
Oissshiii desu ne!!!

Hope these suppliers will be settled before this month ends.
Yosh!!!

Head spinnin'


I just recently put up that tick-tock wedding counter on the side bar.
It's pretty scary and exhilarating at the same time to look at you know -- a great way to keep me awake,too on sleepy lazy times ---like how I spent these passed days.

I've been rummaging online for outlandish ideas while I wait for my wedding coordinator/friend, Tisha to fix up our reception & catering details (contract drafting process by now).

Some updates on the CHECKLIST so far ...

VIDEOGRAPHER.
Tisha have asked a videographer prospect who can possibly come up with a super8mm-style-wedding-coverage. THAT I'd luv to see a sample first before I go and sign the contract. =)

INVITES/SAVE THE DATES.
The initial idea is a Vintage PostCard or Airmail Design (with fun stamps & doodles) using a TYPEWRITER's Font. If I knew calligraphy myself or with my own proud handwriting skills (haha), I'd luv to just do so myself. Hmmm. Haven't drafted any details for that yet. Will be working closely with my faery buddy on that SOON. Our Deadline's on May(?)*winks to Dimps*

Lookiee!


SOUVENIRS/GIVE-AWAYS.
Ugh! Nothing I can uniquely think of yet. *sniff* (and i still call this update hehe)
I did mention about disposable cameras but I wanna still look for alternatives ---something eco-friendly on the budget and something NOT people just forget. =)

WEDDING TUNES PLAYLIST.
Jazz. Bossa. Putumayo. Indie. and yes, Beatles = That's all there is to melt me.
The hubby apparently has no preference, but my heart will surely get soaked if he'll strum his version for me of 'Fields of Gold' by Eva Cassidy. =)




Anything else I haven't crashed out from here are things I'm still staring at until now. *sigh*
Geeez, I'm starting to hear the real tickin' of that clock. Hehehe

Oh waitt..today's V-Day but excuse my indifference as I am not really into the V-thing Hehe, however I do like to quote "Nobody has ever measured, even poets, how much a heart can hold." - Zelda Fitzgerald. =)

Spreadin' La la la ♥ ♥ ♥

Guests-What-to-Wear?

Before I write further, just so you know, I haven't given up on desperately searchin' for my wedding gown yet. *wink*

So while I'm rummaging on that, I am thinking to spare our GUESTS from same tedious task (or NOT?!). As I want something at least out of the mundane, like how fun it was wearing GREEN on our civil wedding while the rest wore WHITE, so this time on our church wedding, how about if the rest wear JUST ANYTHING but VINTAGE-Y.

For the entourage, this melts me!
Look how the muted tones are just purrfect!!!


And for everyone else, just come as kinda modern with



Ohhhh well, I don't know yet --- these are part of my raging random thoughts.
I keep sayin' ---- WHY NOT!!!!
A faery friend of mine then suggested to award the bestest vintagey guest to arrive.
Interesting, yeah?

Oh-my-OTHER-gownnnn!!!!

Be still my heart.
I just wanted to cry happily finding this OTHER
oh-so-for-me-vintage-dress.

*all the goosebumps i can feel now*



But I went utterly out of heartbeat --- when I found out this was already RESERVED for someone else --- imagine my total dismay...and in no time, few minutes (while writing this), the owner replied to confirm the buyer already made the deposit. Given that I might find a dressmaker to make one for me, will it even cost me as wonderfully cheap as this with all those details? Hmmmmm.

Enuf said...moving on.... to more etsy-hoppin'. *BIG SIGH*


Whatta!

Got so late, with no make up and hair messed up --- and worst, lost my shoes...
on the day of our church wedding.

Whatta throbbin' nightmare that woke me up early morn today.
Phewww.
Hihihi
