for busy brides

Simple table centerpiece idea. It’s local made, too. Did I tell you how much I adore LOCAL TALENT? I really mean TALENT here - something new, something fresh and not too much diversion from our culture. And potentially cost saving ;)

mini centerpiece

Hi again, I’m bored. Damn bored.

To bring down this boredom, I decided to flip again my wedding folder, not those girly one with fancy ribbon (Read: computer folder) and start picking up some idea to blog about.

CENTERPIECE FOR GUEST TABLE. Not a-must, really. And often in my place, we’re not used to such deco for under-canopy weddings.

I’d love to have it, I don’t mind it’s not as big or tall or bold as this – my wedding will just be in a small town of Kepala Batas, remember?



I just wanted something tiny, and very personal. Not blocking the sight too; tak syioklah nak bergossip :P

I just need this. The artificial just as good as fresh one, believe me.


And….this.


*POOOOOF*

And here’s the not-so-magic, mini glass with bunch of hydrangeas..! My favorite blue hydrangea with misty white glass or the other way around is just okkkayy.

Ceremony is o-ver, so what’s next with those leftovers? Can consider for free (or force-kind!) giveaway to besties/girlfriends. Nazlin Shakir tidak terkecuali (Leen, I know you’re reading this since you sooo love to google your name on net muahaha). Bride’s handmade, jgn buang!

Anyway, don’t worry, Mom will veto her “NO” straight away. And be prepared for her mak-mak excuse..”MEMBAZIR!!” Kuikuikui.

wishin' and hopin'

Wishin' and Hopin' (My Best Friend's Wedding soundtrack)

Wishin’’ and hopin’’ and thinkin’’ and prayin’’
Planning and dreamin’ each night of his charms.
That won’t get you into his arms

So if your’re looking for love you can share
All you gotta to is hold him’ and kiss him’ and love him’
And show him that you care.

Show him that you care’ just for him.
Do the things that he likes to do.
Wear your hair just for him’ ’cause’
You won’t get him’ thinkin’ and a prayin’’
Wishin’ and hopin’. ’

Cause wishin’’ and hopin’’ and thinkin’’ and prayin’’
Planning and dreamin’ his kisses will start.
That won’t get you into his heart!

So if you’re thinking how great true love is
All you gotta to is hold him’ and kiss him’ and squeeze him’ and love him.
Yeah’ just do it!
And after you do’ you will be his.

You gotta show him that you care just for him.

*Pakej Fleksi boleh diganti mengikut kesesuaian.

a friend of mine sought an opinion on this. usually, i dont fancy all-in package cos i've seen some items were not to our need and taste. but still, worth to sit for appoinment and discuss each line item offered with the wedding planners :) better if could request for sample/pic of all promised items. yang mane tak berkenan tu, nego lah for some replacement which suit your taste. mind the extra cost for any further customization too..

and pls DONT hire to only one for the sake of malas nak meng-survey yang lain. wedding is lifetime, so buat lah yang terbaik mengikut kemampuan kita. just a thought!

tiffany favors hunting

talking about wedding favors, nowadays most brides would go for something simple & yet stylish. i'd still love traditional egg giving for reception, especially for my side. hopefully mom wont pop any idea of having goodie bag with lots of foodies inside, no offense but seriously tak suke too much goodies.


preferred packaging either box or paper pouch. customized box a lil expensive, so pouch cukup lah kan for guest biasa. and these were a-la tiffany pouch i found on net.



but i know, good quality paper for such pouch wont come cheap too. i dont need such super quality thick paper for such too la, come on nanti orang buang jugak kan ehhe. memadai la if it's nice, fit enough and can safely hold the egg, kan?


and later i found this piccy from Bandung favor maker. simple one, a-la paper pouch that i wanted with personalised tag. since it's from Bandung, i really really hope it comes CHEAP cos i'm looking for 1000++ pieces with some tiffany theme. i'm still waiting for their quotation, and will go for it if really worth during my trip to Bandung-Jakarta this coming April. since the pouch is ringan, harap2 tak leceh la nak bawak balik Malaysia later hee..

let's pray..!
