wedding shoes

I've been hunting for my wedding shoes and of course, me being the typical me....i want it to match my outfit...and I've selected a few designs that i really love...I'm still contemplating to custom the shoes, or buy ready made...because i have found 1 shop that sells it..but i have to bring my baju to make sure it actually matches...

This is my fav design actually...i love pointy shoes like this, but i reckon it wont suit my baju so much..plus i wear shoes like this all the time with jeans so for wedding i want something slightly different..for my tandang i dah custom an open design because its a garden theme wedding inshaAllah, but for mine since its going to be in a hall and i cepat sejuk i want something covered......

as for height, seeing that I'm not so tall...hehehe..i will take 4inch kot...my daily wear would be 3 or 31/2 inch..so hopefully 4 inches wont kill my back on the day itself...from my experience if you walk on carpet the whole day..memang tak sakit...

so the winner is

simply beautiful...

p/s: Does anybody know a cheap place to custom shoes?..i heard kat shah alam in pkns ada...i have yet to survey there...

p/s: i do not like people like you...

I never wanted to do this entry and i hvnt, since spoke to her last...and habib pun said its ok just let it go...but its been long enough..and its still bothering me..so yes..i need to vent it out...here goes...



a few months ago...i was looking for a decorator for my wedding hall...i came across her blog...and i was pretty impressed by her work...... and the thing that made me feel like she is the one because she wrote at her blog, "For my future clients out there, if you think that you are very busy with your work and have no time to plan your wedding and you need someone very reliable, whom you can trust and also can make your dream wedding come true, ...I would say, I am the person you are looking for"


So that was it i feel for it...i showed my family all her work and told my mum i think she is the one...I'm going to see her soon...my mum being careful as she is said...meet her first and keep your options open...but i said ...no its going to be fine someone recommended her and she seems very baik in her e-mails..

being a perfectionist as I am..i have this like wedding folder where i arrange everything...because i like to be coordinated...hey i was doing events for 3 years,so i should know all this by now..


Anyway so before hand i e-mailed everything to her..my setup...my vision and everything needed....so we made an appointment.. her house is around 45 mins from my house...se we went to see her at her house..which i found was weird because its very not professional to have a business meet up at a personal house...

1) i had to wait 15 mins outside her gate before she opened it for us..
2) during the meeting we achieved nothing because she was busy looking for stuff to show me, and I was irritated coz i've already shown her what i want and she should have prepared everything before i came...but I still loved her work and nobody is prefect so i figured takpela...just let it go
3) last2 finally she said..ok for what u want I charge RM 7000...and i was like ok..that is within my budget..so she said she will prepare the quotation and will get back to me...I said I'm very interested so yes do get back to me as soon as possible...

a few weeks went by...and i heard nothing from her..i msg her she said she is busy and will get back to me asap..i pun waited some more...


months went by..finally I heard from her...(during the wait I dah so angry because I DO Not work like that) I expect professionalism when we are a paying customer..
she sms me at 5 freaking am and ask.."oh u still interested ke with the quotation?" I was furious when i got the sms...dahlah i waited lama gila and u can ask me whether i'm interested or not...but ok i just said its my dugaan so I replied and said yes I am....


so I thought dah sms pukul 5pagi maybe u will hantar e-mail asap..but no..she only e-mailed me a few days later....and the worst part was..from RM 7k the price we agreed on....she naikkan her price to RM 15k..and total quote RM 24K.....After i told her specifically my budget the first time I met her at her house..
.

I'm so pissed...i hvnt replied the e-mail till now because i know if I do, then I will say bad things to Puan S N

so everyone careful with people like this out there..who thinks just because  dah well known abit can up the price more than double even though she has given her word to me on the price...


p/s: i said i'm an extrovert....and I said I'm here to share...I just do not want anybody out there to go through what i went through...I want all consumers to know your rights and not allow all this poeple to pijak our kepala...dah lah as it is weddings are getting more expensive nowadays..we just have to be very carefull......

My dream wedding ring

A few weeks back, finally i got to watch brides wars..funny movie...the scene that i cannot forget was when the guy proposed to anne hathaway's character..and goodness i couldn't take my mind off the ring...it was absolutely beautiful...

While the trend nowadays is white gold or platinum...secretly I'm still all for the yellow gold (even though many of my friend has commented is very makcik)...not like a bright bling gold, but just like the colour above...I started searching for it online...

Below is a ring from Tiffany...but it has 6 prongs...not like the one I'm in love with

Ahhhhh look at the ring below...absolute beauty...timeless...solitare cut diamond with 4 prong...my personal fav...

its timeeeeeee.....

I was just going to upload pictures from last night, and then everybody in my house was shouting away...

My sister is in labour...weeeeeeeeeee.....

hope all goes well inshaAllah...now getting ready to go hospital...i'm so excited....

oh Allah swt do give my kind sister an easy labour...ameeen....

dinner update

Alhamdulillah today i manage to find a suitable venue for our engagement...but unfortunately i wont be able to name the place yet, because I'm only going to confirm with them tmrw...but inshaAllah once everything is done i will reveal everything...

as for the makeup, i decided to do it myself..because i actually have a gone for a few makeup courses because before this i wanted to be a makeup artist..also this would save me some money, I'll just make full use of everything i have learnt in the pass...plus knowing habib, he always prefers me with my natural look alhamdulillah..so just a simple do would be sufficient....

(gambar sekadar hiasan, though this would be my ideal engagement dinner set up) picture taken from here

The concept of my engagement is of course different than our norm. We have kept our guest list to only 15 adults and 2 kids...hehehe...which is actually just both our families...engagement to us would be a time where both families get to know each other and discuss on wedding stuff, so we figured what not a better way to do it, with an intimate dinner...

after finishing our brainstorming session, we shall adjourn inshaAllah to an appropriate place to sarung my ring by habibs mother...

as for our attire, i seriously haven't decided on what to wear...waiting for Habib to send me his baju melayu (which is tmrw i hope), and i will somehow find something to match it (benefits of having 3 sisters and a mother with all similar size, SHARING BAJU..)

May all our planning goes pleasantly InshaAllah...

suggestions needed pleeeease...asap....

salam my kind readers...

since we are having the engagement in 4 days inshaAllah, I was wondering if anybody knows a hotel or villa or a restaurant or anything something similar to carcosa seri negara..it has a private launge so i can sarung my cincin there...

so far somebody suggested jeumpa d ramo in bangsar...is there anywhere else that u guys knw off??

wedding dress teaser..updated

Eid mubarrak everyone...alhamdulillah i just got back yesterday from both my kampungs and raya was great...pictures will be uploaded when i get a new memory card reader..

anyhow since raya pics still cant be uploaded so i shall upload teaser pictures of my wedding outfit...i only have my nikah and sanding baju...i forgot to take picture of my tandang baju (that one is in champagne)

This is my nikah lace...but of course it will be worn with white satin..not the black/white batik at the background....for my nikah attire, I'm actually partly using my sisters nikah outfit...since we are the same size and body shape...it saves a lot of money and I'm only wearing it for nikah session at the mosque....inshaAllah..My sanding material...when i choose it, alot of people was very worried because of how simple it is (design only at the border for the baju. the rest is plain chiffon)...but i loved it......when they opened the material i straight away fell in love with it...well it actually wouldn't be so much of a problem if i wanted to do a proper wedding dress...but i insisted on a kurung modern....I have always preferred myself in kurung than kebaya, so no matter what people say i do not want to wear a kebaya for my on my wedding day..my body shape does not suit a kebaya......

and to make matters worst..i do not want a train nor a long veil for any of my wedding baju..mum put her foot down and said no dragging anything, since there is a hadith sahih that supports that statement..so i reluctantly follow.....so pretty much it does sound more like a baju nikah then a sanding attire..

finally my designer drew a design that i really liked....he will play with beadings and layers of materials instead....1st fitting will be in 2 months inshaAllah...can't wait

p/s: secretly i do feel sometimes that my wedding dress is too simple..but when i see other brides wedding outfits...i always seem to love the nikah outfits more than reception...
