Corsages
sis decided she wants to do it, because mum wants to make it personal...

Balloons:
Yes we usually prepare helium balloons for the kids..to keep them entertained..so far its been a hit...of course it will be in pink and white....

Sign boards:
were having our nikah at a new place..and takut my family from jauh don't know the way, so i think its best we put a few signboards here and there...bunga maggar, will just buy from shah alam or something...

and finally, my fave....

Honeymoon:
yay booked our flight to krabi...we decided to stay there for a week...i wanted to get the goholiday package because its soooo much cheaper...but me and habib gatal nak change2 hotels..so ended up booking with the hotels straight...nasib baik ada honeymoon package..plus they also included all the island hoping package..yay so no need to worry so much..ohh i dah e-mail them about halal food in advace...inshaAllah food pun dah settle...airport tranfers, and hotel transfer pun sudah arrange..alhamdulillah...

InshaAllah I will anounce my vendors bila sudah confirm, or at least deposit paid..still ada a few yg tak finalise lagi..hmm...
