the wedding

so happy that i (we) no longer have to think and plan and worry about wedding prep :)

thanks to our lovely and fantabulously helpful and capable friends, everything went smoothly and i don't think there were much hiccups (if any) worthy of mention.

the day went passed quickly with so much fun. the dinner finished early, at 10.30pm and everyone could go home and rest well for the next day's work. fullerton was fabulous and we had lots of compliments about the food. I didnt fall down the stairs during march-in, although i could almost hear everyone's bated breath as we took the scary steps. :P

if there's anything i wanna pick and tear apart.. i would say...

if you receive any invitation to a wedding, you do not simply ignore all the facebook messages, emails and smses. if you genuinely cannot make it, (or really just don't want to go for whatever silly reasons), let the couple know so they can plan and make arrangements. so that they dont have to stare at the wall and wait for your reply before they can do anything else to get things going. i simply do not understand how these cases can happen, especially when we invite people whom we think have a good relationship with either of us, and would really enjoy the invitation.

or, if you have accepted the invitation enthusiastically (and even asked if your husband can join), you do not wait till the wedding day, at 5pm even(!) to sms the couple and let them know that you (and your husband) are unable to attend. you have no idea how much of a headache this creates to everyone in the wedding party.

fortunately, our superbly super wedding party was able to resolve issues and told us to relax and leave anything to them. so grateful and thankful for these people in our life, really. :)

ok, rave and rant over, for now. so tempted to post this on facebook so that those anonymously guilty people mentioned above can read and feel bad! :P
