Dear all,
This site is setup for more efficient transfer of file and information
about our November wedding. I suppose most of you that come to this
page would be from the "ESDlife's Wedding Chatroom". Perhaps
you've messaged me before. Hope this page could provide you with
some useful references. If you do want more detailed info on some
topics that I've put below, you may leave me a note. |

sorry, I couldn't share more with you on this MUA topic
since early March, cos due to the outbreak of the atypical
pneumonia, I've cancelled all my makeup trials, until, I
am not very sure when. I will probably try to make booking
again this week.

| DRESS |
I guess choosing the right wedding
gown or evening dress of your choice, is a very personal
thing. Often, not even your fiance can affect your
decision. In fact, before we make our final decision,
there are still quite some common factors that we
have to take into consideration, such as,
- the $$$
- when to wear that?
- does the color matches with other dresses that you
have?
- does it fit ur body shape, which is most importantly,
do u look good in it?
... Of cos, there could be a lot more other factors
that you could think of .... That's why, it's very
subjective. Therefore, I'm afraid I can't provide
you with much helpful hints on this topic, but just
to share some personal experience of mine. 8)

Hey, i've just picked up my "Kei

| SHOES |
If you are looking for nice pair(s)
of shoes to go with your beautiful gowns, here are
some shops that I've visited and bought my shoes from.
Personally, I found their styles are nice and the
price is reasonable too. These shops sell ready-made
shoes and custom ordered pairs.

PHOTOGRAPHER & TAIWAN PHOTO Information :: |
|
|
Download file for detail information (.doc)
- updated 30 Mar
| |
These
photographers provide service for photo and VDO shooting
on your wedding day. The choices that I've marked down in
the file would be more expensive than "KUM DOH".
The total you
have to pay after counting all the film that you've used
plus development and print will definitely be over $14,000.
For some more famous/experienced photographer like DW and
TWO YOUNG would be more expensive. If you are interested,
may have a look.
*Just added more information on the production company called
King's that I'd really want to use ...

| Oh,
time has passed so quickly, here I am, come back to
HK after our 7 days trip to Taiwan for Photo Shooting.
Definitely have to share about this trip and photo-shooting
in Taiwan. Unfortunately, I don't have time to type
out and sort all the detail yet, if you don't mind
come back a bit later, ....it's coming... 8P
But, just
before I have time to type any detail, I must thank
all the crew at 'Romantic Life', Taiwan, (which
is the studio that we've picked), both their sales,
photographer and even MUA are all very considerate
and friendly. Since my boyfriend felt very unwell
on the day of photo-shooting, if it wasn't the photographer's
particular effort (persistence), we may not be able
to finish this. Thx Apple. 8)

P.S. I have to wait 4 weeks for
the photos, so no picture to share at the stage...yes,
I'm so desparate waiting for the pictures to be
delivered! (the fitting pictures were taken by my
boyfriend with digital camera)

FLOWER REFERENCE :: |

Flowers
of my Choice - updated 3 April

These are the style and flower references
that I've chosen for ordering bouquet corsage and other
decorations items. Instead of using all fresh flowers, for
some table decoration or frame decoration, I will also be
using silk-flower, I know
friend who can custom-made the order (silk-flowers) for
me, if you are also interested, you may send
me an email. Probably we can get higher discount if
we group the order. 8)
There
are 2 main tones of flowers that I've picked. 1 for day-time
ceremony and 1 for nite time banquet.

Now, you may click to the link below to see some pictures
of some actual bouquet. These are bouquet order of some

If you want to decorate the

fill up the place. I passed by that very long foot-bridge
from the convention cetnre to Wanchai MTR station, I found
a plant leasing shop. The contact is: 25199939. |

MOOD
- updated 3 April
| |
Pop the window to see the "MOOD"
that I prefer. I'm in a process of discussing the decoration
ideas with the production house designer.
The Production house that I've chosen is
"THE MOZZ". They are expensive, but their ideas
are more original comparing to other decoration services.
So if you have budget and want some sort of more special
decoration, you may chat with them. Their contact is 27218386
(Kelvin or Ern).
In fact, to cut down cost, what I am doing
now is 'work with them', this means, I work out the ideas
with them, but try to source some of the material myself
at a cheaper price. So eventaully, they charge me for their
services. Actually THE MOZZ, also provide choices of fresh
bouquets and corsages plus car decoration...

INVITATION CARD :: |
|
|
Finally,
got the draft #1 done. Would like to share the W.I.P
with you. -
updated 12 April
Since it will be quite hard to show the true color of the card
on the web, please note that what you see is the best contrast
that I can get. Cos when placing(converting) print graphic
to web-color, it will lose its sharpness and contrast. Here is
only the cover & the back of the card, probably will put the
inside of it later.
Similar
to the silk flower order, since I'm designing and printing this
myself, I would really like to see if any of you would be interested
in my design, so we may probably order together. Hopefully, I
can gather more order and get a bit more discount from my printer.
8)
(Can just change the inside content/information).
You are welcome to
drop me a line, if
u've got any comment or question.
Still got a couple other design in mind and some could be for
the day-time ceremony invitation. 8) You will see them soon.
Here
comes the "Day-time
Invitation" . .

ABOUT MARRIAGE REGISTRATION & WEDDING CEREMONY :: |
|
|
Do
you think the same as me, want to have your wedding ceremony at
a decent or more memorable place rather than those Marriage Registries?
Since at Hong Kong, if you are not
a Baptised Christian, it's not appropreiate to host the wedding
ceremony in Church. Apart from Church & Marriage Registries,
there seems no other choice . . .
I've talked to the Immigration department
and Marriage Registry many times, and would like to share some info
with you here.
| |
- updated 18 Mar
|
| |
There
are rumors saying that now we can apply to have the government
registrar/lawyer to witness our wedding on location. In fact,
i've double-checked with the 'marriage department". They
said 'having people married by lawyer is just something those
government officials would like to suggest. But it has NOT
BEEN FINALISED, they don't have any internal document for
this, so can't give me any instruction on how this can be
done.
BUT since 6 of the marriage registries will be closed down
byJune to minimize cost, therefore many people (including
the marriage registry staff) guess that around that time,
new policy may be released, that is, they may allow registrar
to certify wedding on site.
Now if you really really want to hold
your wedding at somewhere special, by law, WE CAN'T SAY
THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE. Actually you may also apply (wirte to
the chief offier of the immigartion department) for external
registration by paying a high premium charge (around $10000+).
However, most of the time,
people would only use this service if they are in jail,
in hospital or disabled....
Anyway, for myself, i've decided
to write the letter to apply, nothing to lose. 8) Maybe
u can try too. To sumbit
with this letter, you have to get a special application
form from the marriage registries. You may click to read
the following relevant news. I mean if "some special
people' can use this service, why can't we?
article
<I>
article <II>
I've
booked the 'marquee' area for holding my wedding ceremony
at the Marina Club. Hopefully, the new law would have been
passed through by then. 8)
|
Just a bit more info on this special application:
We've just talked to the Marriage Dept again, they said if we
wanna apply for 'on-location registration', we don't have
to apply this early, should do it around June (provided
that our wedding is on NOV), cos they don't look at cases
too early. Just FYI

SUGGESTION OF DOORGAMES :: |
|
|
I am sure most of you would have read lots
and lots of popular, or traditional 'Door-games' from different
wedding web sites, chatrooms, or magazines. Here, I don't plan
to repeat too many of those, cos that will only turn your wedding
to be another replica of somebody else' previous wedding. I
suppose, there's no formula for arranging wedding, it should be
SPECIAL, and should be ONE OF
YOUR OWN. For
these reasons, this website only mean to share ideas and information,
so you can generate more ideas of your own.
These are some
'Door-game' Ideas that I find quite interesting (some are
just OK, more will be added when I have time)

MUSIC FAVOURITES :: |

Have you thought of what kind of music to use
on the very special day? -- updated 26 Mar
Just want to share some
music favourites of mine. If you are a computer game fans, you'd
know where they are coming from, if not, these may sound totally
new to you.
Actually, Faye Wong did sing one of these song before but part
of the lyrics was quite sad, so I will use the music without people
singing over it.

-----------Apart
from the above, some lines are great ......
-----------------------------------------
So let me come
to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming .....

| SKIN CARE |
Girls, while you are busy preparing
all sort of things for your big day, I think preparing a
perfect look would be above all on the list.
Apart from the MUA info above, I would like to share some
skin care product info with you.
I am not a very loyal Clinique
fan, but since like many other girls I do have 'dark-eye-circle'
problem, I've been using different types of eye gel for
years (mostly Shisedo's), but it's not too effective on
me. Lately, I've tried the Clinique
line for eye treatment and moisturize
treatment. After being very persistent on applying these
products twice a day for a month, I found them relatively
effective on me, especially comparing to other brands that
I've used before. Particularly good at smoothing the fine
lines under eyes.
I've collected images of these products and listed them
below for your information.

TIPS FOR THE GROOMS :: |

I know, to the grooms, this doesn't look
fair to have this topic right at the very bottom of the list.
But face the fact, when it comes to the topic 'wedding', the bride
is always much more sensitive and devoted to it. They would invest
much more time to do their research and planning, therefore the
brides would deserve more & better options...bear with us,
guys. 8)

Information on Erave: Me and my boyfriend
had visited e-rave a month ago after looking at thier ads on magazines.
I personally think their collection is much better than those
that you can generally choose from the bridal shops. Both me and
boyfriend always find those 'shinny collor' and 'silver stiched'
tux very shocking... -
