After months of preparation, it was finally the day for our ROM. We bought new clothes, new shoes for this day. Only family and close friends "our brothers and sisters" were invited. My gown was rented from Venus in JB, also my bridal studio for wedding photography. It was a bit formal but I loved the design and look. Perhaps, thats the flaw of a LEO. We woke up real early as we have arrange outdoor photography shoot at sentosa. I woke up at 6.15am to give dear a morning call as he was drunk the night before and I was worried he couldn't wake up on time to fetch the photographer. But to my surprise, he was already awake and sounded sober.
We reached Sentosa about 9.30am, not too hot and not too many people around. We had difficulty posing with our eyes open under the bright sun. So most of our photos, the eyes looked a bit wierd, those with eyes closed looked more natural though. Photos is showcased under the links by the side as well. Afterthat, we proceeded home to my place to bath and change for the afternoon ceremony. My ceremony was at 4.30pm at Cherish Suite.
My makeup artist arrived on time, she looks really pretty and totally different from what I expected her to be. Quite trendy for a woman her age..I guess she is about 30+. Opps..age is suppose to be confidential. Anyway, she managed to give me the look I wanted..except for my eyes that kept tearing and caused some problems for her..sorry about that. My makeup around that eye din stay on anyway.. but luckily it was only for a day and nobody really noticed. Perhaps they were already fansinated by my gown to bother about my makeup. Hehe.
As we wanted to go over to Chjimes for some photos before proceeding over to ROM, we had to rush a little and amidst the chaos, I forgot to bring the pass for Chjimes and dear had to run back home to get it. He was quite pissed about it. It started raining just when we boarded the car and it dampened my spirits..I was wondering, will friends come despite the rain? But fortunately, the rain stopped just when we were about to reach Chjimes. Thank God for that. We carried on with our plan as usual..phototaking...posing...
Ceremony at ROM was short but solemn, most of our friends turn up..I really thank you guys for that. Thank you Huixin for helping me with my troublesome gown...hehe..you shall be the official gown bearer for my wedding. Anyway, we went on with buffet dinner at Kuali. I had the best Turkey I ever ate..yummy...think I'll be back there for other Xmas dinner as well.
We din go for clubbing as planned as most people doesn't want to go...understandable...most are couples and they want to spend this special night together...hehe..us too. This really is a good experience for what to expect on our actual day...we definitely will be more well prepared and well rested for the day. Lastly, all I can say was...all this preparation for one day was made worth it with all our friends prescence and seeing them go off with a yummy dinner.
