tsumori,
but the flowers on the boards are probably flat jor... cus i stacked them together. & some flowers fell off when the hotel people packed things up for me afterwards   it's pretty sad to just put them away after my hard work, i really 唔拾得throw them out. but i have nowhere to put them in my place!   so i sent them to my storage downstairs in our parking level....aiii

np la~ it's still so memorable & fun discussing all this stuff with you girls la. keep me entertained, i don't mind showing you my ideas

tsumori,

i've just sent you 2 other emails with pics of the board. i went through my HEE dvd, so now i don't need to go down to storage to dig up the boards! you go check check la. it might take a while to load, cus the files were taken by HEE, so their professional camera makes huge file sizes

tsumori,

i ended up getting my dress from Lisa's bridal. as i say before, i really went to 12 bridal salons before i ended up deciding. it was such a hard decision lor... i got 2 dresses...both creamy white. cus i don't want rainbow color evening gowns like a 雀 gum

the one i wore in day time (when hubby pick me up, day time pics, ceremony, & entry into my banquet) is white tulle, full gown. exactly how i imagined my dress to be, cus i know in my mind, i want a tulle layer dress. $1300

the 2nd one, is spaghetti straps, completely made of silk french lace.... $3000 that one i changed as my "evening dress". the best thing i love about this dress, & the main reason why i was WILLING to pay that much for it is: it has a sheer long underdress...which can be detached. so it turns into a sexy lace mini-dress with a long train for the 2nd half of my banquet evening.

bridal salons here, the dresses on display are ALL too big for me. there's no way the typical chinese girls like us will fit. but when you try it, they will pin it on you, so you can see the color & style on you. of course, when you order your dress, everything in your size will be proportional & look good. but it will take at least 6 months to order. so if you buy dress, you need to shop in advance. plus, when it arrives, you might need minor alterations... so make sure you have enough time.

that's weird...
did you make an appointment to go shop for dresses at each shop? cus that's what you're supposed to do.... so they will have a lady to serve you only. if you walk in, they might not have time to serve you ga bor.

i think the most prettiest dresses were Bisou, Something Blue (i ALMOST got my dresses there....almost), Blush Bridal... Lisa's bridal, you really have to dig through ALL their dresses lor.

hmm... sounds crazy, but i wanna put on my wedding dress again just for fun, every year. AHHAHAHA see how many years it takes for me to not able to fit into it anymore

gum i think that sales lady treat you bad jeh... maybe she was pms-ing gua

back then, i also had this dress idea in mind: vintage style with elaborate crystal/beading on the bodice. i found a beautiful one at Something Blue...but too bad, i was too skinny to wear it, it didn't look good on me. dress shopping was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUN~!!! i didn't go with friends, i went with my mom, & sister, & a few times with my dad when he was back in vancouver at the time. i want only them to see me in a wedding gown FIRST!!!!

anniversary pics in wedding dress? can you imagine 10 years later taking that pic with your dress on?
