But Mr Bee is a traditionalist, thank goodness for my parents. So he planned everything and did everything. Dinner? Choose a decent restaurant/hotel which had an available opening on the date that is decided. Pictures? Go to a recomended studio. Gowns? Ask them to recomend you gowns that suit your figure. Choose. Pray and hope they dont give your gown to someone else on the wedding day. IF that happens, throw a bitch tantarum. Flowers? Deco? Go to a florist. Cards? Print them.
End of story. We did that in one day. Of course, we did abit of research before coming back to KL to settle things. But research was done after work, at night.. prolly like 2 weeks before we came back to KL. Actually, Mr Bee was the one doing all the research.
Maybe the first part was too easy for me because, Mr Bee did everything. Heh. I just give the final say whether it was ok or not (ie, card design, bridal studio concept, dinner place, etc). Lucky eh?
Then came the hard part. The tradition part. Tea ceremony. Meeting the relatives (this involves smiling non-stop till your jaws hurt throughout the duration you are in the relatives house). Seating the guests. Deciding who to invite, and not to invite, how to deflect situations where people whom didnt cross your mind to invite say.. "Hey, I heard you are getting married? When is the wedding? You must invite me you know"
*URK*
Then came seating the guests . I have to worry if the guest in the same table have some history together to avoid bitch fight later on (alcohol is going to be served, and it can turn ugly later in the night...). I try my best to seat everyone to their liking, but sometimes, I've gotta fill in tables u know... :( So please please try to get along with everyone in the same table as you and focus on me instead.
I cant wait for all of these to be over so I can resume my normal sweet life again.... :) Marriage to me is just to legalise a relationship and to make a solid commitment to be together, forever.
