Me and habib just got back from our beautiful honeymoon at krabi..mashaAllah..we had an amazing holiday, i would def do a few entries on the honeymoon first...

Alhamdulillah since everything went well, alhmadulillah from my very pleasant nikah experience, all of the vendors i took is fully reccomended..alhamdulillah..hehehe...


quick update for now..i will elaborate on them asap.

p/s:if you have any questions on vendors kindly email me...I'm more then willing to share my experience

updates....

just read diah's entry saying she regret not writing more about her wedding prep..i realise I should get my lazy fingers to update more often, esp these last few days...


Nikah legal stuff:
Ok i'm suppose to call the imam next week to remind him..hehehe

Date:
Did u guys know that I'll be having a joint reception with my sis in July???..oh I'm so excited, i know it sounds weird but me and my sis have been wanting a joined wedding since a few years ago, we have always planned our reception together, and Alhamdulillah somehow my circumstances has worked out well for us...
sure ramai say what about our own personal wedding vision?? well its simple, we plan our dream wedding during our nikah..so me and her still get our own dream wedding, and then the reception, we inshaAllah will do it according to what we have been planning the last few years ...

Outfit :
I actually just picked it up last week...I love the baju soo much..its so sweet...but the veil..Its also so pretty...but .hmmm..well i'm a very simple person kan?? when i told my designer i wont be wearing a crown, terus he made me a heavier beaded veil, then i initially wanted..hehe...the veil is sgt cantik...but because I'm wearing it during nikah, i takut its too much..
everyone in my family says its NOT though, and that i'm just paranoid...heheheh... maybe i am..

Favours:
I finally finished doing them, i buat soooorang k...but i can't be mad at any of my sisters...everyone is sooo busy...our house lately non-stop new things happening..talk about changes...


Hantaran:
I'm so freaked out because i belum hantar my barang hantaran to MG, but I don't want kacau them till Amys wedding selesai..hehehe...sempat right?? its only a few more days to go...

Spa:
U know, i decided not to do ANY spa, everyone close has advice me to stay away, sbb my skin so sensitive, takut it will somehow react..i also redha je with the situation...Allah SWT always test us...this is my biggest dugaan/test in life i guess...not the spa, the skin part.ehehe...

Sign boards:
From my previous experience in wedding prep , there are 2 things yg we all always stress last minute, signboard and hantaran..so this time i learn my lesson, i habis kan sign board by this week...hehhee..its done, It so big and clear, i hope everyone can see..i choose the most obvious colour, White and red..bunga manggar in Blue....its so simple, not cantik also, but I wanted it to be more practical then anything...


Honeymoon:
I actually booked the trip a few months ago, but instead of 6 days, i book for 5 days only..so I emailed them straight, to make sure the bookings is for 6 days..there is no way, i can kurangkan the days now, because we have confirmed our flight even earlier than that... but Alhamdulilllah everything is good, I also have e-mailed them the flight details, so they can pick us up from the airport straight...

wasssalam,

Sabby

I'm back...alhamdulillah...

Long story to the change of address, i would much rather put everything behind me and move on...everything happens for a reason..Allah swt knows best...

the first thing i shall do is update my checklist..its in 19 more days inshaAllah...ahhh......hehehe
