It all started with a seemingly innocent question by my mom on when we (referring to bf and I) are intending to get married.
I finally revealed to my mom,
10 October, next year"
Like all mothers, she got increasingly excited as I revealed more details with each of her pokes.
She rushed to check the Chinese calendar and gave her nod of approval that the Chinese calendar says that the date is an auspicious one (Mothers...)
She has been poking me to share with bf's mom on our intended wedding date.
Today, we finally did. And hence the wedding planning shall commence.
The funny part about sharing with the bf's mom was her first response to the whole situation,
I buy a condo for you guys to stay la
Bf and his dad stared at her with wide eyes and asked her how she is going to print all that money out LOL
There were more discussions on how to renovate the room, what furnitures to buy (FIL wanted us to start buying pots and pans for our Bidadari flat HAHA), what properties to look into..... but none on the wedding itself. LOL
OH and, the ILs were stunned when we said we needed no renovation done, but just a change of our bed to a bigger one.
We don't need so much hassle. Just a simple happy ceremony to celebrate the union of two lives and two families on one great auspicious day!
The bf thinks that his parents are slowly digesting the fact that their son is getting married. We gotta give them a bit more time before the wedding plans are unleashed upon us.
If no wedding plan is unleashed upon us, we shall stick to our initial plan and have everything kept simple and sweet. Perhaps we might just have a solemnisation at Dallas, and skip the wedding dinner altogether.
Then again, it should be a shame for a food blogger to skip having her wedding dinner when I have this plan of gathering all the best café food that I have had and gathering them all in one location on a joyous day.
There is so much planning to do. I need to breathe and (hopefully) not turn into a bridezilla.
My friend who also was maid of honor stumbled upon this place, a hidden gem, and we popped over right away to see if it had possibilities. On first look and we knew these wedding venues were perfect. The view is to die for, and provided a breathtaking backdrop to the ceremony and then dinner.
