the bonito effect

Remember my post about the great Bonito by Bob earlier this month?

I mentioned that I particularly ~love~ their newly launched bridal room decor services but since I'm having my reception elsewhere after my pre-nikah preparation, I planned to just kemas kemas my bedroom, gantung nice langsir, pasang nice cadar, campak some nice cushions and ribbons and flowers into the mix and hope that when my photographer takes pictures of my pre-nikah preparations, the backdrop will look decent at the very least.

But as luck and fate would have it, one thing led to another, which then ended up... with this:

And in case you cannot tangkap what that means, it means that the Bob of Bonito By Bob is coming over my place next week. Which pretty much means...

I IZ GETTING MY BRIDAL ROOM DECOR FROM BONITO BY BOB LOR!!!

Which one to choose which one to choose which one to choooooooooose :D

There's currently three template designs to choose from - Le Parisian, Rustic Vintage and Ala Kampong (in order of pictures) - but pengantin can choose to personalize some of the elements such as changing the colour of the drapes and ribbons or putting up pre-wedding pictures onto the backdrop... ada banyak lah possibilities! Cuma kena discussing discussing je, which is why I absolutely cannot wait to sit down and discuss with Bob on what I can personalize for mine :D

I hope this service of theirs becomes popular enough for Bonito By Bob to consider adding more designs so pengantins will have a variety to choose from! Mana tau one day they will offer FULL customized bridal room decor services instead of just template designs with personalization so pengantins get to choose which option they want to pay for eh eh eh? 

(Although the beauty of template designs with personalization is the cheaper cost for pengantins lah heh heh. Full customization yang cantik cantik and class class punya boleh masuk beribu oi.)

Super overjoyed at the idea of not having to susah payah bertungkus lumus cari materials and gantung sana gantung sini, panjat sana panjat sini, tweaking sana tweaking sini (tweaking eh, bukan twerking, heppppp) a few days before my wedding in hope of beautifying my bridal room... because I'll have an awesome pawsome vendor who will do it for me!!! Boleh jugak concentrate on other last minute wedding-related tasks yang confirm tengah sabar menanti nanti.

a story about bob and cherrie

Have you guys seen the bridal room decor and in-house dias setup by Bonito By Bob???

(Thank you @nraishah for the pictures!!! Such a darling, this girl.)

Saw these on Aishah's Instagram and I was squealing all over (dalam hati je... sebab time tu tengah dalam train haha) So damn refreshing and cantik kan??? I especially love the bridal room decor!!! 

I'm not going to have any bridal room decor for my own wedding since my reception will be held somewhere else so takde chance nak consider pun :( (Well, I am planning to spruce my bedroom up a liiiiittle bit though, since I'll be getting ready at home and our photographer will take pictures of me in my bedroom segala kan)

But if you're looking for a vendor who can do a different kind of bridal room decor + in-house dias, Bonito By Bob might be the perfect vendor for you!!!!! Some other samples (which is tak banyak at the moment, because they kind of just started on this whole bridal room, in-house dais thingamajig)

If you need a vendor to do your gubahan trays sekaligus, even better - Bonito By Bob can conceptualize and decorate them for you too! Their gubahan trays are very cute miut okay! I first knew about Bonito By Bob because of their gubahan trays actually - another bride-to-be (Shaz from Glitter On My Finger, I think) tweeted about them earlier this year and their gubahan trays left an impression on me because they were so cute and totally up my alley :P

They got the laci laci kind... 

(Suka eh dorang laci laci ni semua... bridal room decor pun banyak laci kat belakang haha!)

... the acrylic box kind...

... as well as the normal tray kinds lah. Oh, they also have gubahan trays yang ada crate tau!

For those who want a little bit of kelainan! :D

I'd advise bakal pengantins who will have the Mean Makciks Movement at their weddings to steer away from the crates though, because you know lah their mulut... mesti ada je comment dorang when it comes to something that looks different from what they are used to. Mulut tempayan boleh ditutup, mulut makcik how you want to tutup? Tenyeh dengan chilli and sireh pun their mulut lagi pedas, girl. No challenge.

But well, talking about sireh...

... even their sireh dara looks different hor?! In a super cute new way! Hehehe.

I wonder if they're ever done / considered doing bridal bouquets since they're so crafty?!

But even if they haven't done / not considering bridal bouquet services, you know who you can approach for cute bouquets for your engagements or weddings tak?????

Cherriesmitten!!!!!

I sangat suka with her presentation okay! Jom kita lihat her wonderful creations:

The perfect option for people who'd love to have fresh flower bouquets for their engagements or weddings or even any other special occasion lah! 

This Cherriesmitten make my tangan very gatal you know, macam nak order bouquets for my bridesmaids all! But this is not really a need (more like a want, hehe) and since I don't want to incur more costs for the wedding (cukup, Tipah, cukuppppppp!), this shall remain an angan angan.

But just because it's angan angan for me, doesn't mean it is just an angan angan for other people so if you're looking for someone to do your bridal bouquet with fresh flowers... tau tau lah nak buat ape lah eh. Kalau tak tau, meh I kasi you tau:

Click here to follow Cherriesmitten on Instagram lah, ape lagi.

Alternatively, you can email her at cherriesmitten[at]gmail[dot]com for orders. 

But for those yang prefer brooch/satin bouquets, there are other options such as House of Bouquet and Budgetnista Chic, besides Cradle Love and Heirbloom Bridal Bouquet Couture - who is having a September Sale for first ten 2014 BTBs who confirms their order right now by the way! - (my bridal bouquet choice, Woodleigh Park, does fresh flower bouquets and corsage bouquets.) Ni kalau you tak nak choose the tukang buat brooch bouquet yang pernah main busuk earlier this year ah.

Oh, and is it just me, guys... or did I see such lawa modern weddings happening during my bachelorette weekend??? Saw two or three weddings with a modern twist on social media and I was so happy to see them!!! Might blog about one of the weddings in the next post because I am semangat about pretty weddingy things like that :D
