Wedding Project #2 - Morning Highlights

Hello everybody! I know this is way overdue, been so anxiously asking for photos from my photographer, Kent Wong. Yet, hehe. Here I goes, haven’t shared these with anyone yet – will be uploading more photos into facebook after this entry!

The dress that every girl dreamed once in a life-time, went to Venus to select my AD gowns one month before our wedding. Tried almost all their gowns but nothing close to my dreamed gown! With no much choices, I selected 3 best gowns among all. I got so depressed thereafter.

Just one week before the big day, I decided to hunt for my dreamed wedding gown in Singapore instead. First stop at la belle couture, and I saw an exact piece that I adore! *Happy girl*

The above piece is from Venus, and the below one is my gown hunt in Singapore.
Decided to wear both instead for morning and night. Which is better?
Personally i like the below one, big ball gown with long train..
Simple design that I adore much!

My lovely wedding shoes from Pedro.

 

My hair and makeup started at 8am that morning, and all bridemaids came over early to prepare too! Kudos to mummy for cooking noodles for me and my bridemaids in the morning. :)

Even though I only had 4-5 hours of sleep, I know I will be in the safe hands with my makeup artist, Vivi Wong – who made me look the best I ever looked. But please pardon my 包猪婆 hair.

Gatecrash time, see how my bridemaids torture the guys !

The chinese's gatecrash will never miss out the 酸甜苦辣 food to torture the guys!
酸: It may not look as sour as it is, but sour plum with citric acid is real powerful ok?!

甜: This diaper shit dunno made of what.. look really eeeew!!

苦: The super bitter and raw coffee powder my mummy bought from wet market!

Each cup still have coffee bits! Look at my dear's expression..

辣: Hubz hate to eat fish ball, want to make giant fish ball.. But i guess the making of fishball shape failed, isn't it? haha!

The traditions as followed after fetch the bride. Was holding back my tears so hard, because daddy doesn’t like us to cry on a happy occasion! Folks sending me off and really like the below pictures so much:

Back to the groom’s place, and changed into my made-to-measure cheongsam. Designed my own cheongsam for tea ceremony, thanks to Iris and Edel at Lucky Chinatown for this lovely piece. I love it much!

Nice candid, both in-laws drank the 媳妇茶 with muchness happiness!

And this is my new family now.. ^^

They guys MADE IT back home!

Worth a cheers~

Returning home for another round of tea serving to my side of family..

Didn’t have enough time to head out for photo taking session with my bestmen and bridemaids but glad that I have managed to get some portraits done with my lovely bridemaids, where the guys are at the backyard having late lunch!

 

It was an extremely long, warm and tiring morning!

But also a magical moment beyond words.

To know how our folks really loved us till the day we are married and having a family of our own.

 

Thanks daddy and mummy for the priceless dowry and of cos to my parents-in-law for the generous gifts as well!

Almost 5 years in relationship with hubz, and finally two became one.

Marriage life has been too good for me, and I hope our love will be as pure as the day we tied the knot! Loves!

Happy Wedding Monthsary!

Satur-date with hubz! It’s our 1st wedding monthsary last Saturday, hubz planned a day-out for us!

Laze and cuddle on the bed till noon is the best thing to do every-weekend, agree?

Woke up in the noon and taking own sweet time getting ready to head out, went to the favourite neighbourhood coffee-shop for lunch before starting our adventure~

First stop, to the River Safari! Arrived in the late noon, the weather was awesome!

The River Safari consists of 3 main parts - River Adventures of the World, Giant Panda Forest and Wild Amazonia. The Amazon River Quest, which is part of the Wild Amazonia boat ride experience is not ready and will only open to public towards the end of this year.

There were tons of animals to spot during our whirlwind journey! Ranging from beavers, paddlefishes, Mekong catfish, alligators, barramundi to even a peculiar-looking softshell turtle. But of course, we were so excited when we approaching the most adorable envoys from China - the Kai Kai and Jia Jia.

This is kai kai! Jia jia is so shy.. we waited about 15 minutes before we could see her!

And only snapped her butt!! Kaays, not really.. Because, my phone low batt! So when arrived Jiajia, I couldn't snap anymore photos! Boooo~

I love photogenic food!! How cute is this?!

Ended our River Safari adventure at about 5.30pm. Hubz brought me to Yakinikutei-Ao-chan for dinner!

It was crowded and mainly based on reservations booking. So remember to call for reservation before heading down to avoid disappointment!

 

I absolutely love yakiniku! Sizzling meats over the hot grill, and juicy on the inside.
They serve different types of meat, mostly beef. Pricing ranged from $10 and above.

Hubz is a carnivore!! He loves BBQ meats, perhaps, it’s because I’m very fussy over the greens that I eat. So this made me became a slightly meat eater too!

The spread of meats for just the two of us:

Top: Ox Tougue Prime, $16.80 (honestly, it's not bad! but the thought of "tongue" made me goes, eeeew~ Hubz loves this!)

Left: Pork Belly, $9.80 (this is the normal Pork Belly, with rating 3/5)

Right: Belly Tender Prime, $19.30 (is god-awesome! Must TRY, if you are beef lover)

Left: Ibelian Ton Toro Karubi, $12.30 (another Must TRY dish, hubz and I love this..)

Right: Japanese Pork Belly, $12.80 (their marinated sauce is oh-so-good!)

Under the raw beef dishes, we saw this yolk looking real good in the menu and we just ordered it. Didn't know this has to be eaten raw.. and we actually attempted to grill it. What a joke! Wahahaha~

Never expect this could be so nice! Doesn't taste funny at all, and it's sweet with their special sauce and the raw yolk!

Rating 5/5!

I like it~ Try it if you want to try something else other than fish sashimi!

Last activity of the night! Hubz booked a movie at the Cathay platinum suite!
It’s my first time watching a splendid movie at the platinum suite, say me noob! Aaha!

Thanks hubz for this, it was god-awesome.
With blanket and pillow provided, and lying down enjoying the 2 hours show! Yahoo~

Before marriage, after marriage! I feel the much-ness love from hubz.. felt so blessed to have him!

 

 

Thank you baby, and happy 1st wedding monthsary to you too!
