Finally! This blog is back again! It has been a long time since I have been involved more with my life offline than being online. Taking the photos for the wedding was a long day. Waking up for me was not an issue, the makeup and hairstyling at the studio was long. My poor hair was teased and pulled and more hair spray. Took me a long time to wash out the hair spray w...

Somehow, when a certain age creeps in annually, I'm asked, "So, been proposed yet?" I wonder why the huge concern. Perhaps it's how life is supposed to be since the dinosaurs went extinct. Ladies are rather excited about being proposed to in a romantic way. Well, this guy went to this show called Perfect Proposal and did it on TV for his girlfriend. Let's see what he ... Read More »

DD's friend was holding her wedding dinner at Marina Mandarin, the building next to Marina Square. It took us a long walk to the POSB ATM near the cinema and back to the bridge connecting CitiLink and Marina Square. We were still early, 7pm is way too early to arrive at a traditional Chinese wedding dinner.
Not to forget that it was a weekday night whereby traffic ... Read More »

I am utterly bored by Chinese wedding dinner styles but won't have a say in mine although it is mine. Because of face. Just that one word. I don't think there is a need to show off the wealth since I can jolly well put all that money into better use such as go... Read More »

Time to officially announce my new project, Lovely Momentos. It's about weddings, hotels, bridal studios and love. I try to compile articles related to wedding, hotels and most important, reviews of bridal studios whenever possible.
Getting married in Singapore or anywhere is no mean feat when there is so much to plan for, guest lists, wedding gowns, dinners, hotel s... Read More »

Chinese New Year is coming. So are the frequently asked questions by the relatives who are very concerned about my marital status. Since they don't see me every time throughout the year (that is in case they get sick from looking at me and won't give me the ang bao so generously), they will ask me "So, when are you getting married?"
A colleague of mine... Read More »

Attended a wedding at Furama Riverfront Hotel last night. I late but in time for the 1st march in. My first impression of the ballroom, Venus at level 3 was, cramped. I think there were more than 40 tables being squeezed into the ballroom.
The tables were just enough for 10 average sized people. Seems pretty small to me. While the greeter at the lobby was polite, I w... Read More »

You can say that again. Couples planning to tie the knots are having trouble trying to book their preferred hotels due to the steep and rising prices of the banquet tables. Even the red packets (ang baos) have to be bigger too. That way, the couple will not be able to cover their wedding celebrations, let alone honeymoon.
The price list for 2007 is available and I ca... Read More »

What bride would be without a bridal set? I'm in love with this bracelet from this bridal set by Goldheart.

And no, don't ask me when either. I don't know. But my friends, do take note. You can give me this set when I send you my invitation card. :P... Read More »

It's no longer safe to wait at the bus interchange. I was on my way home from the wedding dinner when this drunk, yet another dark skin, stared at me. I walked away from his line of stare. Not happy, he mumbled loudly and attempted to walk in front of me as close as possible, twice. I was contemplating to walk home when he tried to make his advances on me. Seriously, ... Read More »
