In a blink of an eye

Oh no, I definitely need to put more effort into this blog. My last entry was more than a month back, so as usual, I'll have to do a quick summary entry to catch up on what has happened so far.

So we're on the verge of putting down the deposit for the ROM venue and surprise surprise, after all the fuss over wanting a waterfront venue, we've settled on a location on solid ground and smack in the middle of the city. This will be finalised within the next 1 week.

We've also confirmed our photographer. He's really the one service we're not scrimping on, some people may say that it's just the ROM and we should save the expenditure for the AD but E said something that made loads of sense to me. The traditional stuff like the church and banquet are more or less for our families, the ROM is one part of the wedding which we can really put our stamp on. So while we'll definitely try to keep the budget low, we really want a ceremony which isn't run of the mill and something which we'll look back on and be happy about.

And of course after the fuss is over, the only thing left of the ceremony are the people's memories AND photos, so we're willing to spend that little bit more on this.

We're also exploring the possibility of customising our wedding bands. Have consulted our ring designer (sounds so atas right? Hahha) and we're currently waiting for him to advise us on the estimated cost.

Now all that's left to do is to find the perfect dress. More excuse to shop, I'm not complaining ;)
