Blogging at Medford

3rd day of our road trip back to Vancouver.
Spent 2 days in San Fran meeting up with frds. I'm pretty exhausted from waking up early in the morning and spending all the hrs in the car...

Anyways...

I found out a lot of our frds got married in the past few months...
and I have a question after looking at ppl's pic.
is it normal to wear black...or white at someone's wedding??
Coz i know it's a big no no in Western culture...

Hmm...

Quick post in LA

It's super hot in LA, especially at Mark's apartment. We went to San Diego for 3 days visiting my friend Mika and of course went to San Diego Zoo and Sea World.
We'r moving out in 2 days and Mark is busy packing and everything. I'm too tired to help out (I'm very bad at packing and throwing things out). I'll probably help cleaning the appartment.

Gonna go pick up our wedding favor now~

Leaving Comments (Blessings)

Sorry guys, I didn't know that I've set the comment function limited to registered user only. I've fixed that, and everyone can leave comments without a google account. So for those lazy asses out there, you guys have no more excuses to NOT leave comments now, hahahahaha

**Leaving to LA in less than 24 hrs**

Happy News of the Day

I think this is one of the happier moment I have during the planning of this wedding. I got this message early in the morning from Jimbo saying that he'll be in Vancouver for my wedding.
Wow, it's such a GREAT news!!! You can't possibly imagine how happy I am right now. In case you don't know Jimbo, he's like my elder brother. AND Jimbo and Mark knew each other since high school. So for him taking days off work and fly all the way from Shanghai to Vancouver, it's PRICELESS.

YAY~ I'm so Happy~

Sigh

I've picked up my wedding gown yesterday. And just when I was about to sleep, I found out that 1 of the 2 veils I ordered came in wrong. They'r suppose to be in different length...So now I need to call them and hopefully they have it in stock. I hate going back and forth becoz of this stupid little things which they shouldn't have messed up in the first place.

Finally done

I don't mean the wedding planning... I meant my classes.
There's about 30 days left. Need to start thinking about the logistics for the wedding day...

someone to greet the guest
someone to escort
someone to MC
someone to take care of the music/slide show
someone to take pictures...

what else am I forgetting?

9 Days till LA

YAY~I'm gonna run away to LA on 10th

I've already had my 1st fitting of my wedding gown on Tue the 8th. I actually got a phone call from Lisa's Bridal a week before telling me that the gown has been shipped by ground instead of express. But they guaranteed the shipment will arrive on Mon the 7th.

I'm glad that it worked out fine and I'm really satisfied with their service. Coz u can tell that they really want to help and put every effort to minimize the stress of customers.

My first fitting went very well. There's basically nothing to alter except the length of the dress. But even with minor alteration, they charged close to $200. But I guess that the average price?!

You know what? Customer need to bring their shoes with their fitting, so that they can alter the dress length according to your heel height. So when I bought my gown, they have this perfect color matching shoes. But they'r gone~~~So I bought another pair from them (even the color is off). But then Mark said I should check online since there'r a lot of bridal shoes with good price on the internet. So I called the bridal shop and see if i can get a refund. The receptionist told me that everything's Final Sale (they do that even without telling people...I can understand those gowns aren't returnable...but...). So I explained to her what happened and told her that I didn't even take the shoes with me (becoz there's the final fitting next week). So she said in that case, it's reasonable and thinks that the other person in charge can probably work something out. So she transfered my call to that lady and she's willing to refund without any fuss. She's more worried about the gown's length since I'm getting another shoes. But I told her to keep the length and I'll get the same heel height shoes.

I hope I'm not gonna gain any weight during my stay in LA...or else all my gowns won't fit @-@
Ok...i should watch what I eat...even I've never done that before...
OR...maybe I'll even gain more when I'm too conscious about it...
