Our Wedding: 3rd Nov 2006
Preparation Time: More than 1 year - Started from buying bridal magazines, attending wedding shows, sourcing for bridal shops, photographer, videographer, to booking of hotel for the wedding dinner, planning of itinery, getting close friends/colleagues to help as Brothers/ Sisters/ Emcees, printing of invitation cards & table arrangements.
Actual Day: Din really feel the excitement kicking in, even from the eve of the wedding day. Only until the makeup artist started to do the makeup, the photographer and videographer getting ready to shoot, and then upon hearing all my relatives and sisters pouring into my house to get themselves ready. At the very moment when I hear the loud honking of the cars, do I realise that their arrival is setting my heart to pounce out from my mouth! Haha! I was so excited that I grasped my mum's hand, exclaiming " 他们来了!"
I missed the playing games part cuz I m waiting inside the room, waiting for my "Prince Charming" to break through the obstacles and to come and fetch me. Later it becomes a whirlwind process of getting ourselves starting on the journey of going to one place to another, to start the tea ceremony in one house and another.
The greatest excitement: Comes from the Gorgeous looking Red Beetle Convertible!! It is simply wonderful to be sitting in that car, opening the top, and taking pictures in it! Woohoo! All thanks to my JC sisters for sponsoring my dream wedding car! They've contributed in making part of my dream to come true!
The most emotional part: Huggin my parents before leaving the house, and seeing my mum starting to tear...Oh my god!! They are the closest family kin I have in my life, and I love them so much!!! My life is starting another chapter, and I am always glad that I have my family in my life all these years... My relationship with my mother is also very very close...& I felt so touched when she started to tear... Mummy & Daddy, I love u 2 so much...I will still be your dearest daughter despite getting married off.
The most amazing thing for the Day: Dear becomes so spontaneous in playing the games that my sisters requested, and also said amazing touching words to me in front of other people! I can't believe that my shy Dear has become so daring for that day! Maybe he got drunk from the very start of the morning...Haha....After the dinner ended, with only us in the room, with him drunk after being "saboed" by the friends, he started to hug me and tell me things that are very very touching and emotional....I m Soooo Touched by what he is telling me...* Hope he is conscious and knows what he has told me lah! Haha...*
The small little regrets: I din get to decorate my reception area the way I hope it can be. I was not early enough to attend the cocktail reception and mingle with my relatives, friends and colleagues which I wanted to do badly! I din get much time and chance to chat with old-time friends, or to take more photos with them... Too busy twirling round and round by the sequence of events...
What I wanted to say now: A BIG "Thank U" to our wonderful Brothers & Sisters, Emcees and all the friends who have helped one way or another...The wedding is a success!! Of Cuz, we are also very touched by the majority's attendance for the night, and their well-wishes and compliments...U all make me feel so good about myself for that night!! Really!! I am also grateful for the tremendous good work of my videographer - Christopher Tay, cuz his Video express is praised and well-liked! He has captured wonderful moments and portrayed in a very touching and humorous way... Andy, my photographer has also done a good job by cheering ppl up before taking photos. I am confident of his works. Jessie, my MUA has also been a very nice person, who has dolled me up very beautifully for my ROM and the actual day. I have been fretting over the hairstyle for the daytime, but she has done it so well that I feel I should not have worried so much in the first place! Danny (from Sattine) has also been such a nice guy from the start we took up the package from them. He is ever so dearing and nice to us, that we are happy to be using his bridal services! Every so dedicated to his customers on his works and services. Lastly, Felicia who is my hotel Banquet Mgr has been such a nice lady who is every ready to make things work for us! Even the Duty Mgr for that day, Roy, has made us felt so reassured that things are going to work well.
Conclusion: I have wonderful memories, and happy moments throughout the whole preparation process and the wedding day itself. I have wonderful friendships which I will treasure them dearly. I am fortunate and blessed to have such wonderful family support, and lastly, I am glad that I have found you as my lifelong partner, Mr Yam

Hey girl, congrats! After the entire preparation, you are happily married! Wishing the both of you a blissful marriage!
