♥ Saturday, April 11, 2009♥
I've been looking forward to 10th Apr 09, Good Friday, a day where every girl looks forward to. I'm glad i have with my dear Hubby Hao , Estee and Meimei to help me dress up like a princess that day. Poor Estee ended up with sore fingers from the zippings...i'm so sorry =P
We reach Bliss around 2pm and there was already a couple trying in progress. Ruby, the original person who attended to me when i signed up for the package was there but Jenny attended to me instead. I guess Jenny will be my co-ordinator. We were seated and given a few albums on flower bouquets to browse but we decided to choose them another time until we finalize the gowns. Next we settle for the estimated ROM and photoshoot dates.
Now for the moment i've been looking forward to, i shared with Jenny some rough ideas of what i'm looking for. I like to try the different styles (halter, tubes, lace, embroidery, bubbles etc etc) to see which one suits my figure and skin tone best.. She started bringing out some collections... everyone look so pretty... hard to make a choice...
Here's us at the begining of the discussion
As photography is forbidden, Estee managed to sneak her camera in her Jeans pocket and followed me to the changing room.. There were 2 rooms and one of them is rather small and cramp..the exciting part was trying to get into the can can, dress up and snap some pics b4 the coordinator barge in. Luckily Estee was the one with me otherwise i feel weird being topless... Mei Mei took over almost towards the end.
I tried on in total 8 wedding gowns , 7 evening gowns and 2 outdoor gowns... I'm not gona post the gowns pic for the time being as i like my gowns to be a surprise.. so just use ur imagination
Wedding Gown
No 1: Spaghetti strap with beaded floral embroidery over the cheast & tummy
No 2: Strapless gown (half cup) with beaded floral embroidery on the tummy, back n bottom of the gown
No 3: Strapless gown (3/4 cup) with beaded embroidery over the whole chest, tummy, v shape all the way to the bottom with cross strings back
No 4: Halter with a deep V floral lace patches, peach slim sash ribbon and netted lace back

No 5: Dirty Green halter with embroidery at the tummy and bottom side
No 6: Purple tube with gathered crumple top and plain bottom
No 7: Teal colour tube with embroidery at the tummy and champane gold ribbon, criss cross strings behind
Outdoor Gown
* I gona reselect my outdoor gown another day, guess Jenny, myself and everybody else was too tired to see anymore..
No 1: Spaghetti flower pattern Strap with simple embroidery and inverted split v
No 2: Flexible string like strap which you can tie it as halter or spaghetti with flower patches
Next Jenny brought out 3 suits for Hubby Hao.. 1 white and 2 black.. All look the same to me.. the only difference are the buttons.. lol guys dont have much choice.. We saw one guy wearing tuxedo but i think he look like a magician.
* Hubby Hao is also going to reselect them again for better designs..
Some interesting incidents during gown fitting
I thought i shall end this post with a funny incident.. here goes
I was dress in a dark coloured evening gown and waiting for the changing room. Estee commented if the ballroom lights off, people probably cant see me in the gown that i am wearing currently.. Then the curtain open and a bride to be step out in a luminous green gown, i'm not kidding it's luminous green like those pants that the lion dance troupe wear...
My immediate words were, ohh if it's that dresss i tink lights off also can see me? It was just a innocent question, i didnt think too much but i saw Estee and Jenny shaking their heads vigourously and Estee ran inside the room trying to sniffle her giggles.. i only managed to "catch" the joke 30 secs later.. i wished i took a snapshot of the green gown... it look somthing like the green below but brighter
I know it doesnt sound funny here but i will share during our meet up sessions... i'm still wondering what's wrong with the gayish designer.. he seems to be picking out very plain and weird colour evening gowns for the bride (maroon, luminous green, shocking pink) or issiz the bride request..I guess i really offended the designer unknowingly coz after that i was holding on to a dark purple gown and he told me it doesnt suit my skin tone.. bleh..
Thank you so much for making feel like a princess in those gorgeous gowns.. The pictures look fantastic but i guess i shall keep them as secret for the time being. Special thanks to Estee, Mei Mei, Hubby Hao and of coz Jenny who did all the hard work for bringing out the gowns.
Currently i am satisfied with my height, skin tone and all I need is to slim down alittle more to achieve my desired figure. It was tough breathing in and zipping for poor Estee who ended up with sore fingers...
**Coming up next.. we gona visit our house again in a few hours time...
