Wedding gowns

:) speaking about weddings.. as much as I detest the whole hooo-haa and overhyped things related to them, we alwasy do wish to have our dream wedding..


(esp with good photographers- note from cousin: dont' Scrimp on photographs! you woouldnt' want to regret many years down the road when you look like a geisha/doll/what's not on ur photos.
Wedding dresses are tops on the list!! must invest in a good one!! :) well with the sky high prices oof those "princess"-looking gowns in singapore, most of us tend to rent them.. after all you wont' be wearing them more than once (I hope!). on the contrary, i've hear do f some couples who flew to vietnam or china to tailor make their dresses as it is really affordabel and nice! think of it, to get ur own tailor-made wedding gown!

so i decided to surf the net and guess what i came up with..



most of the dresses seemed to have the bustier design, bare shoulder kind of look.

which thankfully i have nice shoulders (thanks to SQUASH )

this on the far right is nice.. coz its a beige/ivory colour and reflects really nicely off her tanned skin! (means i'll have to find time off from the white washed walls of the hospitals in order to soak up some UV rays!)


but it looks more for the evening/dinner or after the main ceremony type of dress.


oh look at this!
this is so far my no1 pick!! :) really royal looking with a nice corset back :)
only problem is you relaly have to have a nice skinny waist to accentuate those curves made by the huge skirt..
This one is the simple wedding gown
the skirt should technically be more flattering for ppl with big hips (like me)
And these are all made from china. the website gives you instructions of what measurements to take and e luxury to pick any colour/material you want! but obviously they have a selected panel and you can ask for a sample panel of the material that they use.
cost? they range from US 65 to about US 140. which is around SGD 98 bucks and SGD 200 plus respectively. whihc is considered a goodprice considering renting a gown woudl cost SGD 250 at some places!! and i remember during high school prom, some girls spent at least 300 bucks for their dress!!
ok then. that's all for now.. back to the books :) let me know what you think of it :) esp my husband :) haha after all you'll be signing the cheques ;) wheee~

Whow the dresses like amazing. Just have to imagine my love in it. I think just seeing her in that dress must be worth the S$200 :)

I heard that the groom just shows up on the day of the wedding, has be sober and write a lot of checks while the bride does everything else ;)


Well, I am not too sure if my wife would agree to this kind of work sharing, but there are definitely a lot of things to be planed: date, venue, food, guest list, dress, photos, music, ceremony, ...

So we decided to use this blog to collect all the ideas over time and we can ask our friends who are already married for advice.
