Back-dated (2 july) ~ My Bridal Car


According to Chinese wedding custom... the bride and the groom are not supposed to meet up...... but i dont care.. coz i need to make sure everything is under controlled..... which includes my bridal car....

in the morning.. we brought our car for snow wash before heading to the bridal shop....

Sending the Black Knight to the bridal shop...... beside was a Porsche...


while the person in charge start deco-ing our car... we went for a drink.. coz they said it will take awhile... when we come back... our car has become THIS...

OH MY GOD!!!! nice?? for me FOR SURE IS A NO NO NO!!! how can you put so many ribbons on such a sporty "petite" 2-door car?? why they dont even have a sense of beauty and sense of design???

For sure im not happy with the design.... ofcoz i need my car to be re-do again... after discussion with the person in charge... we decided to take off some ribbons...

but im still not quite happy with the long-tailed door ribbon and the ribbon ball at the rear....

after discussed with hub... we decided to cut short all the ribbons... :p

hub said wanna give me some surprise.... hehehe..... he wanna do something to make it more machooooooo~~~~

TADA~~~~~~ This is our bridal car!!!
with racing stripes and the lucky number "18" on the bonnet.. and our names at the side mirror ;)

Back-dated (21 Jun) ~ Set up for Bridal Bed


according to Chinese wedding custom, setup for bridal bed means "After the groom's family has selected a 'good day' as the wedding day, a man who's considered to have had good fortune all through his life will be hired to move the bridal bed to the right place. Then a lady who's considered to have had good fortune [with healthy and living husband and sons] will make the bed and place certain good fortune food and fruits on the bed. Then the bed will be left untouched until the day of the wedding."

we also took the opporunity to put some wedding deco on our house... ;)

Back-dated (14 Jun) ~ Preparation for Guodailai ( 过大礼)


As per Chinese wedding custom, we have this Guodailai (过大礼)ceremony... meaning "The groom's family will pick a 'good day' and send the bride's family the following bridal gifts: gifts, cash, cakes and food and sacrifices for worshiping the ancestors. This act confirms the marriage agreement between the two families."

mine was set on the 15th of June... well my MIL doesn't really knowing much about the chinese custom, so i have to take care the preparation on my own... (yeah it suppose to be groom's family job)...

self-prepared "hamper" with wedding biscuit, liquor, fruits, money, wedding invitation, marriage auspicious date selection, and other red packet (everything need to come in a pair or even number)


bought this hamper from the auspicious wedding house, some dried "auspicious" food, candy, tea leafes, wedding candle


Chinese Wedding Biscuit x 30 box (2 biscuits each box)


These are all from the groom's family... very simple :p
