Seven.

 

Less than 7 months to the wedding and it scares the hell out of me.  

It seems like there are endless list of things to do/source/book and I hate it so much. I seriously don’t understand why some BTB love all these planning. The only thing on my mind is to quickly get over it. Hahaha.  

Also, I’ve been MIA for far too long.

Well, let’s recap with whatever I can remember (events not in sequence)

1) It’s already been a year since a) we became engaged, b) me donning the hijab.

2) I appeared in Suria for Jus Cook-off – such an interesting experience, cooking with cameras surrounding you, it was great overall. And I won, obviously. Haha :P

3) I am more attached to my work now, doing OTs and coming back on Saturdays and even Sunday (well, it was one time only, heh).

4) Was overwhelmed by the number of orders that came in last month, it was really a good month huh May. Alhamdulillah for the blessings.
 

5) Went to Marriage Course (Kasih Sejati) and got our certs! Dah boleh kahwin dah~~~ Truthfully, I think it’s a bit too early to go, IMO. But had too coz he’ll be constantly travelling out of the country for projects and the schedules are not fixed. And the duration is about 1 month minimum. :(

 

Well, I guess that’s about it. I can’t trackback the events at the moment.
 

Moving on to wedding preps, there is still a long list of things to settle. I know, forever procrastinate, FOREVER. Seriously ah, and truthfully, I MALAS nak plan the wedding. It’s like too overwhelming and I just don’t like it. Liaise with this person, that person, got to check if fits the budget, schedule etc etc.. so the leceh lah kan. Paling tak best sekali is the budget, semua kena fit the budget. Hahah.. And he will constantly reminding me of that and track my savings and expenditure so that we save enough. Yup, I like to spend, on FOOD especially.
 

Oops, dah side track sikit dah
 

 

Things to do (as for now):

 

1)    Source out small mason/glass jars for berkat : I’m planning to DIY my own berkat but finding these jars annoys me. I can’t seem to find a reasonable price and size. Should I find an alternative packaging? Oh, got to source out for tags too!
 

2)    Design my Nikah outfit :Yup, no design yet but I got a few ideas. I want a soft and flowy dress, white of course, and look as though it was a gift from heaven. Heh heh. :P
 

3)    Order Invitation Cards : Well, this one is already sponsored by his father! Hehe, Alhamdulillah, thank you Abah. What we have to do is to pick a design and provide the details and his father place the order in Indonesia. His father works there and he got his connections.
 

4)    Do research for honeymoon destination : Part ni, I suka sangat. Hahah.. Siapa yang tak suka travel kan? Already have a destination in mind but still doing some research coz the it will still be winter season and it seems that most of the reviews says that it will be dull. It is certain we’re going there but we’ll work around and plan the activities to do.
 

5)    Staycation after wedding : Yay for this, coz he over excited and booked a room already. Talk about mad kanchiong. Super kanchiong lor.. it is a nice place and I can’t wait! The bathtub, awesome gila lah k. Am already planning to buy lots of bath bombs. Nak rendam kat dalam bathtub 3 hari 2 malam ah kat sana. Hahaha..
 

6)    Choose theme colour for family/close relatives/bridesmaids: Parents in Deep Lavender and siblings in Lilac. As for my grandparents I can’t seem to find a colour that will not look dull on them. I was thinking of cream, or maybe towards a darker cream perhaps. Close relatives, part ni susah sikit, semua tk sama kepala. I need to choose a ground colour, that fits everyone. Maybe blush colour? A pastel-ly blush colour? And for my bridesmaids, a light silver/grey colour, a softer tone.
well, something like this.

 

7)    Wedding Car/ Car : definitely have to look into this, coz we don’t have any car of our own to transport us here and there during the wedding itself. And the wedding venue is not under the block or nearby CC. so definitely need a car. As for wedding car, I want a nicer looking one, (actually I don’t want to use his grandfather’s car.. L). Confirm this one, he not happy lah. Sigh.
 

8)    Choosing bridesmaids : Yeap, planning the outfit but haven’t chosen the person itself. Well done. I’ve already asked my bff, and she agreed (last time I checked). So I’m going to ask her again and another 2 more coz he wanted to have 3 groomsmen and wanted to have an equal no for both sides. -.-“
 

9)    Wait for 150 days mark to register. I think this part, after dah book, I confirm kanchiong gila lah. Banyak benda belum settle ni.
 

10)  Lose the belly fat and take care of my skin. Yes I do have belly fat and it’s getting worse right now. Ape tak, dah makan lunch, terus tido. Got to buck up ah Fiqah. Drinking lots of water now and putting more masks. I want clear skin, smooth like a baby’s bum. Oh tak eh?


Like a lot of things to do je. Kan? Adoi, malas nyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…………

Kk, got to get back to work now. Manusia mana OT  hari Saturday sampai 5.45? Aku. 

 

 

xoxo,
