Wedding dress confirmed!

Ahhhhhh...finally!!!

Starting from Mar 1, I keep looking for wedding dress almost every another day.
Thanks Stuare + sister & Sandy, for the search in TST again on March 2; with Mavis the other day in Central & Erica for today!!!!

The more shops I went, the more frustration I had. Bad experience, over budget, time is running out...stress level went all the way up and thanks Jin for his comfort & tolerance...><

I was so desperated to a point that I also checked Shanghai air ticket...just 1 step away from going to Suzhou for tailor-made dress. (even though we will still go and make it in May...).

Today is the watershed. HK rental vs SH purchase.

The answer is .....HK rental!

In fact we only checked 1 shop today - Anovia, the sister shop of 浪漫一生 (my photo shooting company). It is a new shop, opened only for 2 months, new dresses & fashionable.

Staff were nice I would say but the bargaining process was not easy - probably the shop is just too new and they have yet been able to cover the cost...? Anyway, we found a gorgeous dress, priced at HKD 3,380 and made it a deal at HKD 2,000. Thanks so much for Erica's support...I did insist this time. (I thought we were not tooo aggressive but Jin said it's indeed...ha..ha..)

All in all, I am happy with Anovia and the dress I chose.

Want to take a look of the dress? hehe..I want to keep it a surprise on Apr 27 - I won't post it here =p

Erica is really a good friend of mine. She was soo busy at work but still spared the time with me. We both like rice noodle (河粉) a lot but for my diet, she accompanied me eating 米粉...no cold drinks, too. hahahaha, although they were just small things but that meant a lot! (Jin said Erica is a good mentor for me on this marriage project..hahaha)

Thanks again Erica!

I always want to stay tolerable. If I become stressed with Carol, I knew things will not turn alright. It is one of us who looks from a step back, look at all angles, and see what would be the best solution.

All I did was to focus Carol in now, not in the worst case scenario. We both are doing the best not to fall in the worst case. That is the reason why the worry and stress is not at all welcomed. Everyone has the worry, but at the same time, NOT THINKING of the worry is also the strength.

In fact, I knew my Carol will do whatever needed to make the scenario which is goodo for both of us. You really really did a goodo goooodo job yo! You deserve a biiiiig "yoku dekimashita" chop la, hehehe. And thank you to Erica san for the kind support behind all the bargaining! Also credits to Mavis san, Stuare san, Stuare san's sister san, and Sandy san. Thank you for your kind support for Carol when I can't physically be there with her... Your strong support made the difference!


I really like the dress you choose yo!!! I can't wait to see this in reality, which Erica san has already taken a preview of it ( ・З・)envy...

Today is a big step forward for the preparation for our FIRST BIG DAY!!!!!
