Work as a team! Confirm Pastor for Solemnisation & Message too!

(source: www.sibkl.org.com.my)

First time ever, we both work as team shooting James & Cissie wedding. Chia Huey has no idea how to use video camera. I had crash course for her(rather teach her the simple stuff like press record, change tape & zoom). She manage it very well, really proud of her! She did the master shot at the ceremony, while I shot on another roaming camera.

While befre that, she was my driver on the way "chip san leong". Kena scolding from me many times while she was murmuring on how she is not used to my car. Sorry dear, bit harsh on you. That's how serious I work. Had a bit of arguement, but we overcome it with sincere sorry. Somehow we forgive one another as we know each have own weakness. I am demanding yet she is but timid on certain issue.

It was definately a tiring day for us, but it is a blessing that we learned how to work with one another. Our love definitely grow stronger.

Oh yes, it's also a blessing as God really have his plan. Met Ps Chew and manage to talked to him about our wedding. Reminded him about our date and he said someone also him to solemise on the same day, but giving him a sceond choice date. Good thing we mentioned to Pastor 2 months ago. Thanks for my Sweetie for keep reminding me to tell Ps Chew about it 2 months ago, and also yesterday.

Bonus is that Ps Lee Choo also promised to speak at our wedding. Prasie God!
Off course, we told them we are toying between choosing a restuarant in PJ for convinient OR good food. Both pastors without much thought go for GOOD FOOD! Good Food that is! Will work on it now on the good food!

Solemniseation : Ps Chew Weng Chee (tick, done!)

Honeymoon, anywhere?

We sort of plan on a budget of RM 2,000 for our honeymoon. Searching through Air Asia and MAS, still realised Air Asia has better rate. Sorry MAS, not gonna take you.
Choice of honeymoon locations:

1) Karbi, Thailand. Estimate RM 800 for both of us on flight, the room there about RM 120 a night. Not too bad. Nice beach, food is quite good!







2) Bali, Indonesia. Flight fare is ok too. Full of cultural activities, beautiful beach and resort, and off course Babi Guling, crackling pork dish!




Anymore ideas?

Wedding Barter Trade - Wedding Photographer

We realised we do not have much money for the wedding. Off course, we also do not want to spend too much on wedding as we rather spend the money on the house.
Meet James and we want us to do his wedding video. They suggest barter trade - we do the wedding video and he will do our wedding photo. Hmmm ..... sound reasonable trade off .... Ok we close the deal! Not too bad, at least save money on photographer.

So, 1 item confirmed. Wedding Photographer - James Chew(http://www.flickr.com/photos/jameschew/) - DONE! (tick)

Many more to come!

Time to loose weight ... ha ha ha ...

362 Days to go ..... got to loose some weight - it's for the health and also looks of coz .... ha ha ha ... Plan? not yet! Well, she bought goggle, swimming trunk and swimming cap. Gonna start my swimming lesson soon together with her ...... woohoo .... can't wait to jump into the water!

Keep it personal

Well, first thing you learn about marriage is communication. For me, I love to tell the world about good news, except my family member. For her, it is the opposite. She like to keep it personal and share it with only family. Had a chat with her over the phone before head back from Johor Bahru, apparently she is not comfortable sharing personal matter. Everyone congrat her and she is startled by it coz I posted, "365 Days to The Big Days" on Facebook. So, I am still deciding if I should close down the blog. Need to communicate more.
The other lesson to learn, the thing you do may seems right, but it may make other people feel awkward like what I did now. Still take a lot of adjustment. Used to be alone and I decide what I do and it doesn't effect others. In this case, I did the blog without her consent. Kinda feel bad.

Welcome 2 Marraige - 365 Days Countdown

It is exactly 365 Days to our Wedding. As most people said, "Wedding is once in a lifetime." I am setting this blog to document what happen in next 365 days to our wedding.

So far, we have inquired quotations from restaurants and hotels, yet we felt we should shop for more.

Tropicana Club looks good and Tai Thong is not too bad RM 683 per table. The rental for Pool Terrace for our wedding solemnization is RM 2,500. No too bad.

We particularly like The Club at Bukit Utama. RM 738 per table but no place for our wedding solemnization. Well, we will do it at church then.

Actually, we want to have our ceremony at church too. Still looking for church - St Paul is only taking Anglican, so that options is out! Some suggest St Andrew, we will check it out!
Anyway, 365 Days to go, we got to work on many other arrangement soon!
