salam ramadhan from kahwin khronicles

The process of customizing my dinner bridal gown... has officially commenced.

*hits a gong*

Dahlia called me last Saturday (about an hour after we sealed the deal with Ishq by Nora Zee) to get a feel of what I like and what I had in mind so she can discuss the possible gown designs and styles with the appointed designer in KL. 

Fast forward three days later - Dahlia came to Singapore yesterday and together with Nora, they met me with three possible design ideas that the designer had sketched out in hand for my input and approval! Pretty much finalized the colour and details during our meeting yesterday and I am so so so psyched to see the actual bridal gown in person when it's ready to be brought into Singapore!!!

We moved (and are moving) really fast because we're actually on a pretty tight deadline - less than four months to the wedding, designers busy with their Raya orders and collection and eventually their bridal orders for year-end weddings (as we all know, year-end is the peak period for weddings!), the amount of time needed to source for the right fabrics... it's madness. But a crazy good kind of madness :D

Sneak peak of one of the sketches WOOP WOOP!


For now we're expecting my dinner bridal gown to be completed and brought in to Singapore by end September so I have Ramadhan (July), Aidilfitri (August), my bachelorette party (!!!!!) and other wedding-related appointments to keep me occupied till then. In the meantime...


Ramadhan Mubarak, everyone! 

May your Ramadhan this year be fruitful and full of barakah for you!

This year's Ramadhan will be a ~pretty~ emotional one for me personally because this is my last Ramadhan having sahur and iftar sessions together with my family at home as a single. Next year got laki already! If Saliheen and I get our house keys before Ramadhan next year then all the more it will be a very different experience for us when next year's Ramadhan comes along. Ah well...

Part and parcel of growing up and getting married eh?
