Full Steam Ahead!


Things are moving pretty quickly! We're down to the last 3 days before the big Gift Exchange - the Guo Da Li! Recently, both our families met at Grand Park City Hall's Park Palace restaurant for the food tasting and ironed out all the specifics of the exchange as well as made our choices on the final menu for the big night.

The past week and earlier have been spent gathering recommendations and doing research as to where the buy Suckling Pig, Teochew traditional biscuits called Wu Se Bing, and other things. We've also received our Chinese Dinner invitation cards (see sample above) and will soon receive the Church invitation cards. Today, Deepavali, was spent writing out names and addresses for some of our invitees.

Following the Guo Da Li, we'll be sending out the Dinner and Church invitations to our guests. Apart from the collection of our finished Wedding Bands, our next big project will be the photo montage and arranging for the gown refitting before the actual day itself. It's all coming together quite nicely! Oh yes, and we've been doing lots of research into Italy for our Honeymoon too!

Just today, we were browsing through some photo albums that Shermaine's mom put together about her daughter. There were quite a lot of photos of Shermaine in her younger years, up till about 10 yrs of age. I think its quite endearing to see so much of her current mannerisms and behaviour manifesting from age 2 onwards. =D Adorable!
