Having been together for 8 yrs plus and counting, our wedding has ought to be one of the most memorable day of our lives! Planning a wedding is fun but it definitely isn't an easy job! It involves a lot of research, knowing what is it that you want, and couples should always agree on a comfortable budget together! Oh and first thing you'd need to do after saying "YES" to his proposal, is to discuss about the ideal wedding date! Ours was picked by my parents-in-law. And since the chosen date was coincidentally on my mummy's birthday, and during one of my favourite month of the year, my then fiance (now husband) and I readily agreed to it!
So here's our top list of priorities.
- Wedding Date
- Wedding Venue (Church Wedding for Solemnization and Hotel for Banquet) *
- Actual day Photographer (PG) *
- Actual day Videographer (VG) *
- Wedding Style (Modern/Rustic/Fairytale/Romantic?)
- Budget
- Bridal Boutique
Always remember to try on a few gowns first to see if you can find one you like. Pre-wedding Photographer and Makeup Artist will be included in this package as well.
Try to bargain for more freebies/poses/photos!)
- Florist (For Church Wedding)
- Marriage Preparation Course (For Catholic Church Wedding)
- Wedding Invites (For Church Wedding. Banquet's invites are usually included in the hotel package)
- Plan your
Itinerary for the big day
- Plan your
schedule/checklist as you slowly have the things done closer to your big day!
So yup! And not to forget, when the big day is closer, you'd find yourself busy with all the other chinese customary stuff. But yeah, on the overall, it's still really fun. Will be updating Part02 with our Actual Day details and Photos as soon as I'm free!
Cheers,
SJ
