But, I need to do budget on transportation charge if I choose Theme of Que Rafael. Hmmpp.. Keep it as dream.

Nearly same right ? This pelamin are from Puteri'iz Boutique from Kuantan. My dream dais !!

If you are bride to be from Pahang especially Kuantan or Pekan and bride on budget, I make a list of wedding planner and bridal boutique for you to refer.

1. Puteri'iz Boutique at Kuantan.
2. Eezi Bridal Centre at Bandar Indera Mahkota, Kuantan. 
3. Idaman Hati Bridal Collection at Pekan, Pahang.
4. Bridal Heritage at Kuantan Avenue.
5. Teratak Bridal House at Kompleks Teruntum, Kuantan.

7. Eksotik Collection & Jaja Touch at Sg Isap, Kuantan.
8. The Twinlight Bridal Gallery at Kuantan.
9. De Tanjak Bridal Gallery at Sg Isap, Kuantan.

My heart goes to Puteri'iz Boutique because of the dais. But, my families are still looking for Twinlight Bridal because the owner has related to my family eventho I dunno him actually. Ngeee~

And this might bring you to your inspirations

Ideas for bridesmaids

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

This week I'm going to Jakel Shah Alam hunting kain for my solemnization outfit, families and bridesmaids.

Reason why I need bridesmaid :

1. My appreciation towards friends who always saw ups and downs in my life, giving advices when needed, and share my tears and laughter.
2. They will be my tray-bearer.
3. I need them accompany me during akad nikah
4. They love being in the photos.

Lets picture shows you the ideas.

Designer or tailor ?

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

I start survey for my solemnization dress almost two years ago. Still I do not know how to make it come true. I do not know which way I should go.  

1. Looking for the plain material at Jakel, send to tailor, and beading at Bead Me Please. 
2. Looking for material with lace and send to tailor.
3. Send to designer. (I might get an objection from someone. Huwaa..)

I like a simple dress but still look stunning. I don't like heavy bead and lace.

She rent this solemnization dress for RM 200 + RM50 for veil. I want to rent but I worry I cannot take care of this dress very well. I like the design. Should I ask my tailor to design a dress likes this and add beading ?

A bride on the left-side always catch my eyes. I love the simplicity and the bottom design. Her kain complement with the baju at the top. She looks sweet wearing tudung bawal. They know how to match the colour. Groom wearing baby pink baju melayu and white sampin match with the bride dress. Maybe I can find the material for lace and send to tailor.

If I am not mistaken, her solemnization dress was her personal collection. She recycled and added bead. I guess she send her reception dress to tailor. I admirer her dress !

I choose for Tahirah's and Bahiyah's. MAYBE.

24 Julai 2006 - 23 November 2011

Tak pernah aku sangka akan ada persahabatan sehebat ini. Ada 10 orang kawan perempuan serentak. Bukan sekadar kawan. Lebih dari itu.. 

Kita bermula dengan keakraban. Di pertengahan hubungan kita sedang melalui proses menonjolkan kekurangan dan kelebihan diri. Kita bukan sempurna selalu. Kita bergaduh, berselisih pendapat, kadang-kadang bermasam muka. Kita berjaya lalui dugaan itu. Kita terima seadanya 10 ragam berbeza. Buat apa nak marah atas kekurangan rakan-rakan, kerana kita juga belum tentu terlalu baik untuk mereka. Sahabat la tu jika mereka membutakan mata dan hati melihat perangai buruk kita, menerima seadanya. Perpisahan ini manis dan indah untuk aku kenang.

Kemudian Iwa dan Fairuz hadir melengkapkan kita. Adik-adik kesayangan selalu jadi keutamaan. Jadi tempat dibuli dan selalu membalas balik.

Aku akan rindu Anis. Roommate yang sekelas, sebilik, sedaerah, dan senegeri dengan aku. Walau kadang kita tak sekepala tapi kita saling memahami. Ko boleh kongsi benda yang sama tentang perangai aku dengan family aku. Sebab ko terlampau faham.

Aku akan rindu Yana. Berbual dengan ko 4 pagi. Dari ko la aku banyak berubah sebenarnya. Walaupun ko tak mahu dipanggil 'kakak', tapi ko la kakak aku dari kematangan, idea, dan pengalaman hidup. 

Aku akan rindu Huda. Sanggup bersusah payah dengan aku, sebab aku akan buat perkara yang sama dekat ko. Kadang-kadang jadi saksi aku mengigau. Rindu untuk berbaring di bilik ko berjam-jam.

Aku akan rindu Tipah. Berhati lembut walaupun nampak ganas. Perangai ko, terlalu banyak buat kami geli hati. Ko paling unik diantara kita.

Aku akan rindu Elda. Pernah susah senang bersama aku. Berhujan panas bersama. Buat 'critical path' pasal hubungan cinta ko, aku takkan lupa. Aku gembira tengok kebahagiaan hidup ko sekarang.

Aku akan rindu Anna, tak pernah lupa bawa makanan untuk kami yang jarang balik kampung. Berkongsi pengalaman rumah tangga dengan kami. Melayan jenaka-jenaka kami tentang alam perkahwinan.

Aku akan rindu Syikah. Kadang-kadang blur.. jarang bercakap pot pet pot pet macam yang lain. Tapi sesekali keluar ayat, hebat jugak !!! 

Aku akan rindu Lya. Kita sangat banyak persamaan. Warna biru, berebut kentang, macam-macam yang sama. Aku takkan lupa tarian Wawasan 2020 yang kita cipta malam sebelum exam KISSM.

Aku akan rindu Kema. Selalu merapu. Dengan suara keanak-anakan ko tu selalu buat orang rasa nak mengejek. Ingat tak birthday ko kami siram air jagung ?? HAHA.

Kak Skieyn akan rindu Iwa dan Fairuz. Tengok nasi goreng sotong pun rasa nak menangis. Dengar lagu Mr Simple pun rasa sedih. Akan rindu bila teringat Fairuz selalu suruh dengar lagu yang Fairuz suka kat youtube. Akan rindu korang berdua bila tengok 'keroppi', 'tabung bear' dan frame kita semua 12 orang.

Aku akan rindu kita jalan sama ke kelas

Aku akan rindu suasana kita dalam kereta bila nak kemana-mana

Aku akan rindu suasana buat assignment

Aku akan rindu kita rotate pinggan, tadah tangan baca doa makan 

Aku akan rindu SEMUA dalam 5 tahun 3 bulan 4 minggu 2 hari

Check my list !

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

I'm done make a list for my wedding. Take a look at Wedding Checklist above. I refer a lot at other brides to be blog such as Kak Shakina, Miss Marea, the wedding graphic from previous entry and Google. The list still not complete, but it's still can help me to work my plan.

Close friends sharing my happiness

Plan my wedding

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

Lacking of post because :

1. I don't have a spirit to plan my wedding since my father passed away. 27 days after my father passed away, my grandma from my father's side followed him. My family were busy settled other important things. So, I decided to think about my wedding later. Just now, I feel nervous because I never start anything because I have 6 - 7 month to go.
2. I was very busy finishing my thesis, viva, exam, and final semester.

I found this picture and it help me start plan my wedding day.

Pemergian abah

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

7 Syawal 1432h. 5 September 2011

Terasa seperti dia masih berada bersama kami. Menunjukkan kami jalan hidup yang perlu dilalui. Masih terdengar guraunya, nada marahnya, nasihatnya, arahannya ketika mahu kami melakukan sesuatu. Dia pergi tatkala kami masih melihat dia segar bugar melalui kehidupan harian bersama kami. Dia pergi ketika kasih sayangnya belum pernah berkurang untuk kami. Dia pergi meninggalkan pelbagai rancangan yang kami sekeluarga rangka bersama. Dia pergi disaat dia keghairahan membuat persediaan perkahwinanku. Dia pergi saat aku sedang bermimpi dia mewalikan aku dan menggenggam erat tangan bakal suamiku untuk di akad nikah.

Sungguh cepat abah pergi. Hanya itu yang mampu keluar dari mulut kami. Dengan usia 47 tahun. Dia pergi tanpa sebarang penyakit. Diakhir nafasnya, dia hanya mengadu pening kepala sahaja. Tidak sakit. Pemergiannya mudah sekali. Sampai ke akhir nya, dia tidak menyusahkan kami. Malah, kami lah yang banyak menyusahkannya. 

Ketika dugaan itu datang menimpa, kami terkedu. Orang yang selama ini menjadi tiang untuk berpaut bukan sekadar meninggalkan kami berempat. Meninggalkan emak, abah dan adik beradiknya terlebih dahulu. Dia bukan sekadar tiang kami sekeluarga, dia adalah tempat bergantung semua orang kerana dia anak lelaki tunggal tempat rujukan adik beradik perempuan.

Semua perkara yang aku lihat dengan pandangan mata ini mengingatkan aku padanya kerana selama ini dia lah yang membawa aku mengenal dunia. Mengajar aku berdikari. Membiarkan aku melangkah sendiri dengan kawalannya dari jauh. Membiarkan aku membuat keputusan sendiri dengan bijak. Dia cuma membetulkan serba sedikit apabila dirasakan perlu. Malah diakhir kehidupannya, dia membiarkan aku memandu sendirian dari Pekan ke Penang dengan lapang dada. Seolah-olah dia yakin bahawa anaknya mampu bergerak sendiri setelah ketiadaannya.

Akulah anak yang paling tidak kuat menghadapi pemergian abah. Selama hidup aku, hanya kata-kata dia yang aku pegang sebagai peringatan. Hanya kata-kata dia yang aku anggap tepat, betul dan bijak. Hanya arahan dia yang aku nampak rasional. 

Aku redha dengan ketentuannya. Tak perlu aku mengeluh pada Allah malah bersyukur, Dia mengambil abah aku dengan cara paling baik dan urusannya dipermudahkan. Maka nikmat Allah yang mana lagi yang aku dustakan. Semua dah cukup baik. What has happened to me has happened to others before me and will continue happened to those after me. Abah, doa-doa kami ni takkan putus menemani abah. Hanya itu yang kami mampu. Al-fatihah.

We always have an argument. Sometimes I wonder, can I be a good wife ? or maybe both of us are different. Maybe both of us are not meant together. We always think that we did not understand one another. I am too harsh when giving advice and he was too stubborn to listen my advice. But then, I think what happen to me if he walk away from my life. It's not easy for me. He is my other half. He is the men who always let me be my own self. I never pretending to be a perfect girl to him. He just love me.

I hope I can be a better wife to him. A wife who can comfort his feeling and listen to his story or problem. A friend to share his happiness. The cooling of his eyes, his partner in crime, best friend, advocate, attorney, playmate, and support one another.

Books marathon

Semangat nak dengar semua lagu Lee Seung Gi. Beli earphone comel sebab earphone lama dah rosak. 

Menapak masuk dalam gedung beli-belah itu dengan melayan perbualan HATI dan AKAL

Akal  : Jangan masuk kedai baju yea.. anda sudah banyak baju. Jangan membazir. Membeli bila perlu sahaja

Hati   : Baiklah, masuk je Popular. Boleh baca buku free.

Selepas setengah jam dalam Popular.

"Buku ni macam best. Ala mahal la.. rm 34.90"

"Buku ni murah sikit. Rm 33.90"

"Isk.. duit dalam purse ada berapa je ni. Tak boleh !"

"3 buah buku Rm 69.95 ?? Murah ni. Nak beli ke tak ?"

15 minit kemudian, masih di depan buku tadi.

"Nak beli atau tidak ?"

"Ni last stock la.. Kena beli"

Keluar dari Popular

"Wah !! Seronoknya !! Duit boleh dicari, buku ni belum tentu boleh beli lagi.. HAHAHA"

"Masuk kedai baju beli baju, masuk kedai buku beli buku, masuk kedai makan tentu la order makanan"

GAGAL !

To Ipoh with Love

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

I cannot write any review about my engagement yet. I didnt get the photos from my OP. Insya Allah this week the album will be arrive. A lack of post because I was busy with internship and finishing my action research.

It was spontaneous idea to celebrate our 5th year together. A budgeting trip to Gua Tempurung, Ipoh and have a fun to Lost World of Tambun.

What I remember :

1. Eight girls entering hotel at the same time with wet clothes. The receptionist and i were speechless. All of us never fail to show our shameless face. We didnt care how peoples look at us, since we are happy.
2. Pillow talk how we met for the first time. But it end with what happen to your love story. Everyone tell about their love. A beginning of love, a sad love story, a happy start for marriage, taking a second stage for the last long relationship, a never told love story, and a 'classmate' love story. Everyone have their own and unique story.
3. Jump ! Jump ! Jump in the bed. A good bed always make a great bounce for us
4. We were cackling together when one of my friend fell on the bowling lane. Sorry dear, I know you gonna be mad at us. At least you cheer up our day.
5. Ran into the waters like Paris Hilton and the friends. Suddenly the whistle from life guard makes us stop and start belly-laugh. Hahaha. We know that  the life guard will never give chance go into the water because wearing a tracksuit with zip but we didn't care and find other way of having fun.
6. A wonderful 2 times sailing on the giant tube through the advanture river. With waves along the way.. 2 of us fell onto the water while controlling the giant tube.. 
7. I burst with laughter again in the car when my roommate told us something embarrassed happen to her at LWo Tambun.

Kalau dah 10 orang terjun dalam air, siapa la nak ambil gambar kami. Gambar ini je la yang mampu

Dream photo 1

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

I think I need to do a list for my dream photo during and after my wedding. I need to find the ideas and make a collection. Then, I can show to my official photographer(OP) to make my wish come true.. Since I am really addicted to Korean drama, My Girlfriend is Gumiho right now. I choose this scene as my dream photo.

You might think this photo such a formal snap for wedding photography. To me, this photo is significant. It shows happiness, intimation, chemistry, and how important a woman beside a man. It cannot be a great moment without one of them. Perfect two ! Their smile show that they happy being together and they never be separate. I love it when Mi Ho embracing around Dae Woong's arm !! The backgrounds are perfect for them. Hmm. I should hang a big frame for this photo on the wall in our future house. Compulsory !!

I heart this scene to the fullest and I hope that my OP can take this moment after our akad nikah. I want this to be my first memory as a legal hubby-wifey. The couple want to save a  simple memory took using mobile phone. It's look common to us. But, do you think that is a great candid ? One photo saves in mobile phone and one moment in OP's lens.

To be continue...

Engagement Day Review : Handbouquet

Assalamualaikum wbt

Salam Sejahtera

Aku demam tak bangun-bangun sejak balik dari Pulau Payar. Oleh kerana aku dah puas tidur, aku nak buat review tentang e-day aku. Aku buat yang termampu dahulu sebab gambar dari OP tak dapat lagi dan aku memang tiada gambar langsung sebab guna kamera bff aku. Aku mula kan dengan handbouquet.

Beberapa bulan lepas aku ada join contest Hana Zakaria Wedding Planner di facebook. Contest gambar paling stylo dan pemenang dikira berdasarkan LIKE terbanyak. Gigih la aku join pastu pergi memancing undi kat semua kawan-kawan kat facebook. Aku join atas name Mr white. Akhirnya dapat no 3. Hadiahnya Handbouquet (Fresh Flower) | worth RM 200. Jimat dah kos e-day aku. Thanks kawan-kawan yang tolong like.

En Osman (nama facebook bukan nama sebenar)

Sehari sebelum handbouquet dipos kepada aku, Hana da upload gambar dekat facebook. Excited bukan main lagi aku. Hana pos hari rabu, e-day on saturday. Hari khamis Hana sms tanya dah sampai ke belum handbouquet tu. Malangnya belum sampai. Aku maintain cool sebab banyak sangat perkara nak fikir. Jumaat belum sampai lagi, aku dah redha dah. Kalau xde pun tak mengapa la. Memang bukan rezeki aku la tu. Hana call Gdex untuk tanya status penghantaran. Bunga da sampai HQ Gdex dekat Kuantan. Redha je la....

Hari isnin selepas e-day, handbouquet sampai. Pekerja Gdex tu minta maaf tapi sempat lagi marah aku sebab dia kata kalau bungkusan macam ni kena tulis 'alert' kat atas. Aik ?? bukan dijamin sampai dalam satu hari ke ?? tak kira la penting ke tidak. Kami bayar untuk services anda yea.

Walau apa pun, thanks Hana dan kawan -kawan di facebook sebab merealisasikan impian aku untuk dapat handbouquet ni.

Yeay !! blog baru.....lagi. Dalam masa sehari je aku ambil keputusan buat blog. Sehari lagi edit sana sini. Siap !! My wedding blog.

Kalau nak buat blog korang cantik, kemas, sedap mata memandang.. sila lah terjah blog-blog ini. Ada banyak tutorial tak berapa nak mudah kalau korang baru nak belajar, tapi bila dah lama-lama main dengan code html, mudah je sebenarnya.

1. Belog Cap Ayam
2. Geek In The Pink!
3. Nurul Fatihah
4. Huda Luna
5. Ikahoneybunny's blog
6. Blog Zirahfah
7. Edriena Hazelina
8. Cik Tom
9. Anis Nutella
10. Blogger Plugins

Cari tutorial mereka dan cuba buat. Good luck ! Oh. Biar aku terangkan perbezaan researcher dan copycat.

Researcher : Cari bahan dan idea dari pelbagai sumber dan hasilkan sesuatu yang baru.

Copycat : Jumpa satu sumber dan buat 90% sama macam sumber tersebut

Kepada blogger-blogger di atas, terima kasih kerana berkongsi ilmu.

Ini pula video pre-wedding kawan baik aku. Anna dan Muz. Masa Anna minta buatkan video ini, aku macam..."anna ni da gila gamaknya!" Edit gambar aku boleh la. Buat video, pernah sekali. Itupun 3 tahun lepas. Beraninya dia tanggung risiko suruh aku buat video dia. Nasib baik berganding bahu dengan Husna untuk buat video ini.

Thanks bob kerana meminjamkan dslr. Thanks Anna dan Muz sebab merisikokan diri memilih kami jadi videographer. Kerja-kerja amatur je ni, kalau ada kelemahan pejam mata je la yea..
