Our Progress so far…
One of the first things we did was book the hotel for the dinner reception. We figured that the guestlist would be considerable, since we both have rather large extended families. My father has five brothers and two sisters. My mother has three brothers and a sister (and more who are not in the country) Jin’s father has also about six brothers or so, and her mother comes from a family of six siblings too.
Just family alone would be a great many tables.
We went through 12 hotels and all fully booked. Our luck came when we managed to get the Legend Hotel. With that settled, we moved on to plan the other aspects.
- Hotel - done
- Photographer for actual day - hired
- Photography (pre-wedding) - already shot, awaiting edit and album.
- Bridal car - picked.
- Dai kum che - favour asked.
- Wedding tea ceremony - applied for
- Wedding Miko girls - picked and practiced 3 times so far
- Wedding plant - purchased and being nurtured

- Catering for teatime - not done
- Website - this the one la…
- Makeup for bride on actual day - booked.
- Bridal bouquet - not decided
- Slideshow/video - someone else wants to do this.
- Furniture - just the bed, paid.
- Flower girls/bridesmaids for dinner reception - favour asked.
- Rest - going to get some after all this is done.
So far it’s going well. It is already July and so few weeks left. We are both excited and scared at the same time. Wish us luck.
