cuppy box

we supposed to meet Kimie Kajang today, but dotty's uncle passed away this morning so we had to cancel the whole thing. i'm not really in the mood as it's my first day period & last night was a stressful session with my trainer and every part of my body is damn painful :(

late in the evening, my couz zana & myself went to subang jaya, to view sample of my doorgift & cuppies box. nice, and they're handmade too. i've confirmed my order, and hope everything will fit in nicely. i just found out that each cuppy box need around 1 metre ribbon, whattt??? ni dah case ribbon lagi mahal dr kotak..cemane tu..hmm, will figure out soon...

need to come back on theme color for my boxes. doorgift is confirmed to be peach-pink. for hantaran cuppy box, i'm still cluelesssss.

wedding budget

i dont know how far can we apply this wedding budget guideline when it comes to Malay wedding hee. But, no harm to share right? Nanti kite tailor2 lah balik kan...

Btw, the guideline is taken from Martha Stewart Wedding - Summer 2008 edition.

reception (F&B, rentals, site) - 40% to 50%
flowers -10%
photo/videography - 10%
bride's & groom's attire - 5% to 10%
music - 5% to 10%
planner or coordinator - 10% to 15%
misc (invitation, fees, favors, transportation etc) - 10%
contingency - 5% to 15%

as for mine, i will definitely slash that 10% for music & me oso quite kedekut la to put aside 10% solely for flowers hehehe...

the rest tu ok lah, but i dont think im gonna hire a wedding planner :P i'm planner by myself cos you know what? each part of wedding planning really excitesss me !

the rainbow math

Just passed by a friend of mine YM's mode :

"It takes both rain and sunshine to make a rainbow.."

Very true - and you know what?

Reality in LOVE is LOVELY,

too much to be loved (and hated) about.

And the best part, for whatever that happened,

you still believe he's the man you want to live with, and also the one you cant live without :)

Cheers & Love!

cupcakes for darling buds

cupcake box for hantaran

cupcake box for doorgift

with pink/peach + green

pink/peach + whitey

cuppies are HOT now!

and for that reason, i've ordered some cuppies for engagement hantaran & doorgift !

the hantaran cuppies to be made by Hey Cupcakes as i really love Azura's detailing in coming up with cute & adorable lil cuppies. for doorgift i decided to order from sugarbuds as it's in my hometown, so can save some space in my car haha.

i'm about to finalize the cuppies design, too many cute design from Hey Cupcakes sampai dah rambang mata nak yang mane hihihi. my theme would be peach, with a mix of soft pink. for cuppies, i think i should divert sikit color tu cos both peach & pink are soft color, nanti nampak pale sgt pulak :P

design atas tu ok x, the green would make it livelier i think..yes, it's from Hey Cupcakes too!

packaging pun alhamdulillah dah jumpe, nice handmade boxes both for hantaran & doorgift. just nak confirm kan size cuppies betul2..

bridezilla cardio

i need to lose 10kgs (at least) before I could comfortably send my engagement dress to the tailor.

pushing myself for 400 - 500kcals p/day. already 2 weeks, and i'm about to start feeling the looosing (perasan..!). betul, seluar dh rase cm longgar2 sikit jeng jeng jeng..malas nak timbang cos i knew the early week is muscle gaining period, so by right my weight shudnt show any reduction.

ok, here's the math :
