Brides in Singapore 2

^ hahaha, yes, sis maxim04! i'm super excited, too, and i can't wait! it's definitely going to be a crazy week leading up to the wedding 

[Maxim04]

^ correct sis! I really detached myself a week before our wedding from the internet.. Nakaka "pressure" .. Yung mga message na, "anong feeling?" , "uy malapit na!" Ahahaha

We were occupied days before, kasi naglipat kami ng house. the next day we went to wilcon, the next day we went to home depot to buy stuffs, then some groceries, then nakakagulat na, "ay bukas na!"
You can't explain the emotions, pero wala naman akong jitters. Hehe. Iba siguro ang stress kung nasa pinas din yun during preps. 

Gaya niyan, november na bukas! hehe. 35 days nalang sis 120515!

[120515]

waaaahhhhh! 35 days to go and my husband and i have not yet really planned how we'll do our entrance and first dance! hahaha! we are not gifted at all in this - i do not know how to move to the rhythm so this will be interesting 😳 he's been bugging me about it but my heart isn't in it so it's not really getting done. i'm having more fun posting about what our out of town friends can do at the wedding!

deep breath, deep breath!

just have to get through these last 4 weeks or so! i wish i were you, sis maxim04, you're already done and your wedding was beautiful!

[Maxim04]

^ nako sis dont bother about the dance. My hubby can dance but hindi na namin inisipan ng special moves pa ang entrance namin. Let the music sip into you as you feel the moment. Ayaw din namain ng "scripted", as in do what you feel nalang para natural.. Yung Automatic mapapasayaw ka nalang. Hahaha. Unless you want a song na prinaktis ninyo talaga.

congrats maxim04.. next ka na 120515!

[120515]

yup, 30 days to go, sis hallerski! i just want it done because i'm having nightmares every other day now! hahaha!

[mrs.abc]

1 month to go sis 120515! I'm sure your wedding will be great and memorable. You put a lot of effort e, DIY's mo pa lang winner na. 

[120515]

waaahhhhh, mrs.abc, i'm praying we'll be able to pull it all off! thank you for the encouraging words!

Hi sisses! San ok magsukat ng rtw gowns dito sa sg? Any specific shops na ok at natry nyo na?

[lyr3hs]

Sisses, whos planning to have a prenup here in SG sometime next year? May mga target photographers na kayo? Or may mga kilala ba kayong photographer na pupunta ng SG next year?

[120515]

^ hi sis, we are already done with our prenup! i'm not sure if the other sg brides are done with theirs

[brendaumnas]

natry ko na sa Blessed Brides. Yun kasi sikat sa local bloggers. puro branded like rosa clara. pero yung mga sukat naman, pang kim chiu level ang kapayatan! pero may way sila para mai-hook [textspeak!] gown para lang makita sa harap if bagay ba yung cut. fun experience since pwede magsukat up to 5 gowns and pwede magtake ng photos. d din pushy yung nandun, sanay na sila na nagtitingin lang mga tao. call them to make an appointment. bawal kasi walk in. Along river valley road sya.

haha! i had bad dreams din few months before the wedding.. common yata sa mga brides.. pero nawala na rin nung malapit na talaga ang wedding! super excited for you sis!

maraming bridal shops/atelier sa Delfi Orchard.  Need to call for appointment so magpa-appointment ka sis on the same date sa different shops para isang lakad na lang
Tiara Bridal in Delfi has Vera Wang and Monique.. Nice experience din to try them   I've tried on more than 25 gowns (different shops) here in SG kaya angsaya..  Eto yung part ng wedding preps na super na-enjoy ko

pero yung mga sukat naman, pang kim chiu level ang kapayatan!

haha! true sis.. grabe lang yung ibang gowns nila, singaporean size na kim chiu ang level..

[120515]

thank you, sis hallerski!

trying out gowns was the one thing i regret not doing - it would have been a fun experience!

[lyr3hs]

^ 25 gowns sis?? Ang dami!!! Wish ko rin makapagsukat ako ng ganyan kadami kaso wala akong kasama dito si fiance lang hehe.

Do u have a list of those shops and their contact numbers para makapagappointment ako sa kanila? Meron din ba silang gowns for rent para sa prenup?

[NikkiV]

wow sis hallerski! ang dami ng 25 gowns. hehe. do they have for rent gowns too?

[adik_gumala]

WoW. 25 gowns! hahaha mukha nga na nag enjoy ka sis! I wanted to try gowns but I had reservations because I am fatter (than my usual), I don't have a budget for the gowns (kaya nga sponsored ang gown ko eh), and wala ako makasama noon. And parang hassle for my friends ba kasi feeling ko they are not the type who will be excited na magtry ng gown. Gusto ko lang mag try just for the sake of the experience. hehe

[hallerski]

^ Yes sissies, andami ko nasukat.. Sometimes kase, nakaka-5 gowns ako sa isang shop lang, kaya nakarami.. Haha! Ang ginawa ko kase, nag-allot ako ng one month na yan lang ang gagawin ko, ang magsukat ng gowns.. Kaya nagpa-sked ako ng nagpa-sked during that month.. Minsan wala ako kasama kase sometimes, during lunchtime ako nagpapa-sked.. I work somewhere in Orchard kaya nagpapa-appointment ako minsan ng lunchtime..
Angsaya magsukat, promise.. Solo mo ang shop since by appointment nga.  Kahit me alam na ako sa gown silhouettes, I always ask them pa din kung anong tawag nila sa ganung style.. Then I always ask them ano tawag sa material, i.e. if it's tulle ba or organza etc.. I ask them what kind of gown kaya ang bagay sa body type ko etc.. Di ko sure if meron silang rental for prenup purposes, kase ang tinanong ko lang is how much ang rate pag wedding purposes.. Normally, $1800 ang binibigay nilang pricing sakin for rent then if custom-made daw is around 4k-5k, depende sa design na mafa-finalize ng designer nila..  Then I get their calling card
Here are the contact numbers of the shops/atelier.  Tiara Bridal is the one which has Monique and Vera Wang..
