:: Guo Da Li ::

I'm no expert in Chinese customs so it was up to my parents and in-laws to settle... hehe
Main idea was to keep in simple as it was more of a cultural symbol than a religious act.

:: Good News & Bad News ::

Good News: More people invited to hotel dinner equates to more ang bao.
Bad news: We've ran out of invites and we're asking the printer to stop collecting ang baos in their home country and print extras like NOW.

Good News: The Hong family has finished their hotel table seating list.
Bad News: The Goh family has not. And they take up 75% of the tables.

Good News: Everyone in office knows when i'm taking leave from work.
Bad News: My attention span at work is diminishing every minute and everyone knows it.

Good News: Our honeymoon trip is booked and we can't wait to go.
Bad News: We waited for so long for this trip but we can't decide what luggage to bring; haversack or hardcase?

Good News: I gained inspiration and lost weight for the pre-wedding shoot.
Bad News: I've lost inspiration and gained weight for actual wedding.

:: A marriage is a test of one's love for the other person ::

But a wedding photoshoot is THE test for....

Me: 12 hours of non-stop posing (lack of sleep, water, food, good health)

John: 12 months of planning (initially refusing to do the boring shoot to now possibly setting a trend)

Bing: 12 years of friendship (the waiting, the serving, the carrying, the free show, the peeing and all that jazz!)


I can confidently say that we all passed with flying colors!
