How I Managed The Wedding Budget

Disclaimer: I know this post is somehow viral now and i really hope you have a good read. 
However, do take note my wedding took place in 2011 and most of the price indicated below is in 2011 ok! Other than that, i hope you have a great takeaway from this entry. 🙂 

Sometimes, i get asked on how much i spend for my wedding. Especially by friends yang dah pasang niat (atau pun dah gatal) nak naik pelamin. lol

and most of the time, i can’t give them an exact amount but i know it was less than $12,000 for our combined wedding.

This is achievable but i believe with much discipline, good contacts and lotsa luck. lol

This may or may not work for some people but then again, i just wanna share on how u can cut cost on your wedding.

Do bear in mind, my wedding was a combined wedding for 800 pax and i started planning for it in less than 9 months cos i got my house in January and have to get married latest by October.

Aku terima nikahnya…

I have finally collected my pictures from Hasemi and i love how it turns out!

Here’s a few pictures i love from our Solemnisation Ceremony.

and oh, sidetrack sikit, i got an awesome deal for my Photobook from Photobook Singapore. I got myself the Large Square Imagewrap Photobook (11 x 11) – originally priced at $154.00 at only $46.20 (mesti nak kena bold untukkasi impak gempak. lol) *happy dance*

I can’t wait to start on my design during the long weekend and send it for printing asap!

Ok here’s some pictures from our Nikah:

Review on My Little Cuppies: Cakes and more cakes!

Remember the cupcake stand i painstakingly DIY-ed?

This is how it looked on our big day.

I ordered some regular cupcakes ($1.80) and some mini ones ($0.80) from My Little Cuppies.

I chose a simple design considering that my Cupcake Stand has plenty of details already.

The cupcakes taste nice! You know how some cupcakes nampak lawa tapi bila makan, kadang2 manis and some buttercream has that plastic taste? Yang ni takde!

I was very pleased with the presentation and the taste so definitely thumbs up for Kak Ros!

All in all, i only spent less than $100.00 on my cupcakes and the materials for my cupcake stand costs me less than $50.00.

Apart from the cupcakes, i also ordered the Viola Set from Kak Ros.

I requested for Cake with a White Flying V guitar with Tiffany blue base for the cake and i absolutely adore the final outcome!

If you are looking for cupcakes for your wedding, i would recommend My Little Cuppies.

She also does wedding cakes and wedding cupcake tiers.

But if you are on a budget like me, you can get the loose cupcakes from her and diy your own cupcake stands.

If you are lazy to DIY your own, my cupcake stand is up for rent at a nominal fee. 🙂

Wedding Videos [Part 1]

Over the weekends, one of our good friends, Gee put up three short video of our wedding. This is supposed to be a lil sneak preview of our wedding, before Azmi starts editing the actual video itself.

Here’s the short preview. Thanks Gee! I love the mood of the video and the smiles i see. I’m starting to miss the wedding already!

and here’s a short video of Jentayu at our wedding, which is super cute.

Dah halal!

Just a short post cos akak sekarang dah jadi bini orang, dah start busy. Pasal rumah tonggang terbalik. Masih belom kemas lagik!lol

Alhamdulilah, everything went well. A little hiccups here and there but it doesn’t matter much cos there was few unexpected stuff that happened that made me smile on that day.

The boy secretly composed a song for me and sang it on our wedding day. That was priceless and automatically erased all the imperfection that happened on that day. It came as a surprise and i kept crying throughout the whole song. (him too!) lol

I think some of you would have seen some tagged pictures from either mine / lyanaz bridal / chase hasemi / jss deco Facebook. But here’s a bit of pictures till i sit down and write a detailed post on everything.


Here’s a little sneak peek from Hasemi’s album from our Marina Barrage Outdoor Shoot:

Me love all the 3 pictures. I can’t wait for all the pictures!

Till later, ok!
