Let's Plan
Planning a wedding is hard when money is limited. And finding a good and cheap wedding planner is hard, when you know you can be a difficult and fussy client. So you have to do everything! If only I'm the type of person who doesnt care about this wedding stuff.

Nightmare
Just as I was about to go to sleep, this came to mind....
Oh SHIT!
I have a small bladder.
How am I suppose to pee during
my wedding ceremony?

Back!
Feeling all jet-lagged, weak and sleepy but very happy. Went to Dubai for a couple of days and then off to Paris!
I am very lucky and blessed that I am able to go to there to do some wedding shopping. Alhamdullilah. And thank you Mummy for wanting to spend it on me, yourself and my sibuk sister ;p.
The girly trip was fun but sometimes annoying because the sister was trying to overrule my ideas and suggestions. Especially when it comes to choosing a colour for my family. I've already said that I dont care about the colour, but I would like everyone to match. But the sister kept asking me, so when I finally picked a colour, but it was denied because she didnt like it. Why ask in the first place!? AGRH! But I love you no matter what.
I too am truly blessed that I was able to buy my French Lace from a renowned lace designer that Kate Middleton and Amal Clooney wore for their wedding! But its not as expensive as theirs. I am very happy with the beautiful lace. Now I need to find a good but affordable designer to design my dress. Any suggestions?
First stop was Dubai. End/Early of the year is a must go to Dubai. The weather was perfect. Not too hot and not too cold. It was my first time in Dubai, and I enjoyed it. A bit expensive but beautiful. After all the shopping we did in Dubai, we rewarded ourselves with the Desert Safari. It was soooo fun and scary. The desert was breath-taking. And at the end of the journey, the campsite was marvelous. I enjoyed every minute of it.
Next stop was Paris. Paris was cold. We were very scared to enter Paris after the attack but Paris was peaceful. The only think that scared us was the pickpocketers. Other than that, Paris was lovely. Met my cousin who is currently on an exchange programme in Paris. He loves Paris so much that he is thinking of working there after he graduates. Our Aparthotel was at the perfect area. Just walking distances to all the major shops. In Paris is where I bought my fancy lace, wedding heels and wedding present from my generous aunty! THANK YOU AUNTY! I'm not married yet and I already got a wedding present! hehehe.
Shopping almost done, now I have to stress myself with the planning! I'm already panicking. And at this moment, my mum is a tad upset with me ;p. I have wait till she cools down. It was my fault. I'm sorry mummy. I love you!
Got to go! need to do some sucking ups! ;p

It could be life changing...
2015 will be in a couple of days. I'm hoping and praying very hard that it will be one of the best years of my life.
A few weeks ago, I've lost one of the most important women in my life, My Opah. I know it was her time to go but I still feel that it's too soon. I did managed to inform her about my big day next year, and I could see that she was happy for me. She even tried to reply me when I told her. I teared up when she did that and I'm tearing up now writing and remembering about that day. I miss you Opah. The house it not the same without you and Atok. Its very empty and quiet.
Half way thru 2015, will be a big day for me. I am very much excited and nervous as hell. Planning this is not easy, especially when I have a sister-bride-zilla, who is happily married with three kids. I'm hoping it's because she is overly excited.
I only have around 5 months to prepare. As for now, the only thing that is confirmed is the the 1st venue (malay weddings and their ceremonies!) and the 2nd venue, still under the waiting list. Can't do much till the venues are confirmed.
Before I end this, I am looking forward to an all girls trip next month! SHOPPING!
Laters Smellys!
