National Museum | Kampong Buangkok | Chinese Temple | Singapore Flyers | Duxton's Rooftop | 二哥's House
After some discussion with Paul sir, we decided to engage Pixioo Photography by Samuel Ng for a photo-shoot session. Oh yes, Paul sir have been very accommodating to my request for photo-shoot as he knows i love to capture the many moments in life. So one day, we met up with Tracy and Samuel for the shoot. Decided to go to a couple of other places such as :
National Museum | Kampong Buangkok | Chinese Temple | Singapore Flyers | Duxton's Rooftop | 二哥's House

We have been thinking quite a bit ever since our Justice of Peace, Mr. Alex Tan has approached us asking if we are going to use the standard template for exchanging of vows or to create a personalised version that solely belongs to PaulnKarine. We have a discussion and decided that we should write one that belongs to us. :)
Decided to head to google and started typing "wedding vows" and found some really good template for consideration and personalisation. Thus decided to post here as a form of reference should anyone requires it. :) We are still in the midst of creating what is OURS and will share upon completion. All love have its own story, unique on its own, how we first met, how we first find each other and how love blossoms in the most unexpected of ways. How do you know? That the person in front of you, is the one? One would never know until the day comes. Was it love at first sight, or was it a realization after numerous interaction? The first part video is a story-based recap of how Paul and Karine met by chance at a gate crashing of their friends' wedding. Be dazzled by the magic of fate that brought them together. Following their journey towards their matrimony, as they slowly tell you what love is to them. From knowing each other as brothers and sisters in their friend's wedding, their relationship slowly blossoms into that of a close friend, and then slowly into a love that would last into matrimony. It was never about how long a time spent together, it was how this time was spent together. It was never about the quantity, but the quality of time, spent together, the fundamental thought and perception of what love is all about, honestly expressing yourself, enjoying each other presence. Though not perfect by themselves but rather fit perfectly to each other. We have engaged 米粉制作 as our cinematographer for both Pre-wedding video and Actual Day cinematography. I would say that we do see the passion in them but definitely hope their after-service will be much better. In order to stay in this line, both before and after customer-service is important. Treat the job with pride and put in 100% effort will bring you far.
We hope the guests will love the Pre-Wedding video as much as we do. :) Beautiful Ang Pow Box done by Doreen Teo, owner of The 1984 Store . Requirement given is Fantasy with shades of blue and she did it! Totally adores the Carriage and the blue flowers attached to the Ang Pow Box that i think if i don't mention that this is one, bet no one will know. :) We are so excited of the big day coming and hope the guests will notice the beautiful Ang Pow Box. That's all for now. Realizing that 28th Dec seems to be a rather peak date especially for travelling as personal favorite is to travel before Christmas to after New Year. But this year, i just hope that more of my friends will skip or adjust they trips to attend my Wedding. Paul sir and i decided that we should do our Save-the-date to pre-notify our our dearest friends to mark down this date on their calender in hoping that they are able to keep the special day just for us. :) After discussion, the man decided to take up the responsibility to design the Save-the-date which i am so happy about his initiative. There are many different formats of Save-the-dates available on the internet when you googled "save-the-date". To just differentiate into two types, the simple ones and with photo ones. The simple ones will be like without photographs, with just very simple and straight to the point wordings so to capture the attention of your friends. While with photo ones, a photograph will be chosen for which we deemed as "feel" photographs and start finding on headers and fonts to fit into the image. And so, we looked through our engagement shoot which is one of the best professional shoot of us. We found this photograph that both of us love about. We feel that that this picture have "feel" and there is a good space by the right for us to write our details. BEFORE. AFTER.
Have been seeing many of our friends Pre-wedding photo-shoot taken in Taiwan and when it comes to our turn, my initial thoughts will be like i also wanna shoot in Taiwan since there are plenty of 山山水水 there. I proceed to research on the various famous Taiwan bridal studios like Bluebay and many others that comes to Singapore for wedding fair on their packages and portfolios.
But after much research and discussion, we decided to take locally since this is the place where we belong. Browse through many bridal magazines and realized that good photographers are able to make use of the good scenery and snap photographs that will amazed about. Remember when we started flipping the magazines, i fell in love with the wedding gowns by Digio Bridal. We found many positive reviews of the Bridal studio and we decided, Digio is the one. Here are some behind-the-scenes: Discussed with the man that we should shoot lifestyle photo-shoot in places like IKEA, NTUC Fairprice, Punggol Lalang and etc and we figure out that topping up such photographs in album will be rather expensive. So, we approached Vince whom is our Actual Day Photographer - Luminous Aether Photography to shoot the engagement shoot for us. The preparation for the shoot requires planning and thinking on the various props and outfits whichwe will want for the locations. Began our shoot in IKEA Tampines and Vince has been giving us alot of tips as to how to pose since we are both newbies. We had lunch and moved on to the Treehouse Villa Chalet for some Bali feel followed by NTUC Fairprice and lastly, Punggol Lalang. The day ended with us smiling till we both have cramped and were so sick and tired of smiling. We feel that this can be of a good experience for us to feel how we will be like during our Pre-wedding photoshoot and be prepared! Some teasers: Taking into consideration where the existing single bed is too small for both of us since we grew quite abit. haha. We decided to start looking around for a queen size bed. Our requirement is relatively simple, we will want a bed that is suitable for people with back problem and to last for a couple of years as we are not going to move the bed to the new house.
Check with some of our friends on the recommended furniture shops and we have shortlisted S & C Furniture Dynamic located at AMK. With the lady-boss suggestion, We tried the Princebed range and felt it was quite good and very value for money. The shop is very flexible with the frame of the bed and allow us to pick from the range of 10-20 frames given. May proposed one of the frame that the shop has personally designed as she mentioned that it is the last piece with partial image of the bed frame shown to us on her mobile phone, We felt the design is relatively nice and we took the offer of the frame. Here comes the bed: |
