Wedding Invites for AD Selection & Car Deco_Flower Bouquet (19-9-09)

Early in the morning, I woke up to prepare because today, we’ve got a lot of things to do since 7th month is over!
This is the time to start preparing for the Actual Day Wedding too!
Gosh…

Ok, so first thing, we went to Yitai Hotstamping to confirm and order our AD wedding invitations. It only took us about half hr in there and the girl told us she’ll send us the soft copy template next Thursday afterwhich, if we confirm to print, then she’ll go ahead.
We were told that we’ve to tie the gold strings to the cards/inserts ourselves! Haa… think gotta engage help of others to do! ^^

"Cards, Cards on the wall, Who's the prettiest of them all?"After the printing company trip, we headed to BBC to choose my AD bouquet, car deco and also to see the photos layout.
Turns out that the layout is very sweet and colourful… :)

Didn’t manage to get the soft copies that day for both the edited and unedited (extra photos we bought) though. Told Kim that I’ll collect them on next Thurs when I collect my ROM gown instead.
Xiaofen also told me that she’ll be adding a string of blingblings to the peach ROM gown.. haha..hope it turns out nice… ^^

I've shortlisted 2 bouquets.. This one below and the 2nd pic below... Which is nicer??
Cast your votes and let me know, ok?? *Turning into a Bridezilla!* :p

Before we left for Orchard, we dropped by at Suntec's Travel Fare and guess who I saw? haha... Tay Ping Hui... Macho handsome guy! *drools*

After the selection, we went to Orchard’s Takashimaya to buy sweet wedding card. My intention was to use the card for the guests to sign. While browsing the many nice cards, I saw a very nice Prince & Princess Pop-up card and being the Princess-fanatic, I decided to buy it to add to the deco for the reception table. Hahaha.. so ended up, I bought 2 cards.

So the cards are settled and then we went to the basement and saw that there’s the mooncakes sale with many vendors! We ‘snaked’ in with the crowd and went around sampling different mooncakes. HAhaha… I find myself loving durians mooncakes this year!! And also the yam/pumpkin flavor mooncakes!! Alright..let me go dig out the pricelist/pictures before I post them here again…

Marina Barrage 11-7-09

BB and I have finally watched Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen, last Friday 10-7-09, after like 2 weeks since it's opening? haha...Anyway, I just want to say again, it is the BEST movie ever for this year??!!
I just totally HEART my lovable BUMBLEBEE!!

Found an interesting old cartoon picture of Transformers..*feels like I'm travelling back in time to my childhood days and I can still vividly remember the sounds they make when they transform..*Ahhh... I miss those days!!

Here's an old pic of BumbleBee..hahaa...very 2D right?

Did you all realise that BumbleBee also stands for BB in short?!! hahaha...Gotta force BB to buy BumbleBee's toy for me, and to buy a sports car like BumbleBee's!! At the same time, to have the sound of the car lock system to sound like Autobots! Hiak Hiak Hiak~~~

Okie, Saturday, BB and I decided to go Orchard Road as it's been such a long time since we've both been there and we also wanted to see how ION and Orchard Central looks like now.
ION is really beautiful in my opinion and I think it will look even more beautiful at night. Though the passageway that links from ION to MRT is open already, the ION building is still not ready for biz yet.

Then we walked to Heerens and guess who I saw?
It's ZHANG DONG LIANG! haa...
Apparently, he's having a Qian1 Chang4 Hui4 there and I managed to take some close up shots of him :):)

Next, the 2 mountain tortoises went to Orchard Central. Wow...I was amazed by the length of the escalator. It's just like Illuma's.. very long. I didn't dare to take the escalator outside the building as I think my legs will grow jelly..haha..
Btw, they only have "UP" escalator and don't have "DOWN" escalator, probably because they fear that people will tumble down the escalator easily especially since it's so lengthy!!
Orchard Central is yet another modern sleek building with 7 levels?? I can't remember..haha.. except that there's lotsa shops, lifts and resting areas with comfy sofas.

After Orchard Central, we decided to reccee Marina Barrage (MB) since we've also never been there before. Another ulu place but luckily, there's shutter bus which brings us there. We took the train to Marina Bay station and saw th bus schedule just in front of the control station. The bus frequency is about 10-15mins with the last bus leaving MB at 9pm for weekends. ^_^

The Queue for the bus....

The walk into the barrage.... surrounded by high walls made of....ROCKS!! Once inside, the place looks like an arena to me..haha...
See BB walking in front??
The Climb up the path....luckily it's a windy and cloudy day..hee....the view up there is really nice...^^

I think it's a nice place for photoshoot especially with a nice weather. That day, there were people having picnics and flying kites there. Great place for family outings! =) The Sea-view
Solar Park atop the BarrageBB has absorbed enough Solar Power and trying to become a Man-made BumbleBee... HAHAHA...

One of the sculptures we saw....interesting...:)

This looks like the old "channel 8" logo...hahaha...

Another interesting sculpture...

I kinda like this picture..hee... Can u spot BB and Me practically "ON TOP OF THE WORLD?" hee...

Ahhh... Why is BB closing his eyes??!! He must be 'enjoying' the moment...haha..

Saturday @ Vivocity

Was out at Vivocity with BB on saturday 15-3-08.

We watched "THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES".. I would say, I'd give it 4 stars out of 5. It's an awesome one especially since I love movies that involve magic/fantasy stuffs. hee... ^^

Do catch it when you have the time!

One thing I must say, Freddie Highmore (the child actor) did an excellent job playing the twins! He's able to portray the twins with different personalities very well!! Amazing young actor who has a good future ahead! ^^

Before the movie, we had some free time, so had lunch at Marche. I quite like the ambience there and it has a 'country-cottage style' furniture theme, and I find the 'cow skin' chairs very cute! hahaa... See below for some cam-whoring!! hee ^^

Strawberry Smoothie!*Slurrp*

"Cow Skin" Chair!

Dear stealing my drink!!

Then, that day happened to be a COSPLAY day. Event was held at the open space on the top deck of Vivocity. hee.. Din take pics with those people cos it was so hot!!! But took some secret shots of them..haa...

See any nurses?!hee..

Who's this ghostly fig!! haaa...running away frm me.

After movie, we ate dinner at KIMGARY Restaurant. It was forever so long queue.. but it was quite fast. Managed to get a window seat but it was so packed and we were practically sharing tables with another couple! Darn~~!

Food-wise, not bad and price reasonable.

Dear's mushroom porkchop rice. Nice!

My Cheese Baked Chickenchop rice.. not bad, so-so

Mango-Coconut duno what drink.. :p

Yeah..after dinner, it's SHOPPING time!!

Bought a pair of black shorts from F21, a vintage mirror and container @ Daiso for storing my collection of earrings. (*^_^)m

The loot will be put up next time! :p

MingTao & WanJun's Wedding 8-3-08

Yep, I attended 2 weddings consecutively on friday and saturday last week... :p haha... I must say it's rather tiring but I enjoyed myself on Saturday 8-3-08 (International Woman's Day), even though Mingtao and WanJun are not my direct friends.. hehe.. got to know them through my dear. ^^

By the way, Mingtao and WJ are JC frens, and dear with most of the others are Dunman sec and then TPJC classmates of WJ.

It was really a star-studded event because MingTao's dad is a producer from MediaCorp. Wedding's held at Marina Mandarin Hotel Ballroom 1. Quite a number of celebrities turned up, e.g. Zeng Si Mei, Lin Xiang Ping, Xiang Yun, Cao Guo Hui, Pan Ling Ling and her husband, Zheng Ge Ping, Liu Qianyi and some others. They were seated at the far end of the room, haha.. so didn't really have a chance to take photos of them, but then again... *heh heh* I managed to take a few secret "zoom in" snapshots of the stars when they walked past!! hohoho... Videos too. :p

Anyway, I was seated with dear at table 29 out of abt 40 to 60 tables, with GuangKai, Dave, ZhengNan and his gf, Gracia & bf and Guo Wei and Angeline. *hope I didn't spell any of your names wrongly ya* It's real fun sitting together with them especially with Dave, GK and Zhengnan cos we all can talk 'cok"... hahhaa... Dave like Yvonne Lim sooo much that he sent an sms that was to be posted on the projector screens (which was meant for greetings for the married couple!!) and he excitedly pointed out the sms which read "Yvonne Lim, you look so pretty today." and self-declared loudly that it was sent by him.. hahaa...and he even said Yvonne and he are having "underground Love" and so she's shy to reply to the screen "Thank you". *hahaa* (^_^)m
Not to lose out, GK blurted he likes Zeng SiMei and that she walked past our table purposely because she wanted to take a quick glance at him! Gosh!! These 2 guys ah!!.. ahhaa...

I think the couple made a lot of preparation for this event which is very successful. I really enjoyed the creative Video montage of the groom getting ready for the gate-crashing in the morning that day. They even use props from "DEAL or NO DEAL" to put their hongbao inside the suitcase and set a deal with the JieMeis. hahhaa... so funny!

MingTao also did a romantic solo play of the piano on "Wo Yuan Yi" for WanJun, to show his love for her... And after "Encores" from the audience, he did another song "Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin" with WanJun. Guessed they're so nervous cos their voices are trembling.. hehe...
**How I wish my future husband can do that for me too** so romantic and touching**

After the wedding, our table people together with the rest of the other sec/JC frens of WJ & MT, went up to their room for "Nao4 Dong4 Fang2". hahaa.. We meant to give them a surprise and we sent Guowei to be our 'undercover". The surprise was considered quite successful except for the part when Dave was spotted by WJ when the door opened. hahaa..
MT was already kinda drunk after downing so many glasses of red wine and Guowei's face was like a red lobster!

We stayed till about 12+am before taking cab home. And oh ya, heard that ZhengNan's proposing to his gf on that day (no wonder he said got something on and cant join us in the suite). So hope he's successful!!! (^o^)p

Jeannie!! I forgot to take a photo with you that day!!! It's so Qiao3!! The world's so small and you happened to be MT's sec sch fren. hehe... Anyway, BB said you have become prettier and he couldn't recognise you. ^o^ kekeke.... Keep in touch ya.. and hope to have a meal with you soon cos we've been planning to do so for ages but seems qute hard to co-ordinate a time. :p

Oki, photos coming soon! Stay tuned.. ^^
