24 Days to Go!

It's exactly 24 days to go before our wedding and I've been very busy with work and the wedding preps that I totally forgot to update our wedding blog. So, now that I have some free time in my hands, I'm abusing it by updating our accomplishments for the wedding.

Let's start with our additional guest give-aways. We have our main give-away which is the photobooth but my dad suggested that we have a separate give-away for our older guests, like my lola, who has problems walking already. So, Doms and I searched endlessly for an additional guest give away and I emailed each one of them and inqired.

I was able to find Swell Sweets online. Swell Sweets is owned and managed by Gel Colet. Her specialty is baking and her creations are wonderful! I saw her cookie designs and I instanly fell in love with it! She gave us a quote and it was right for our budget so we got her to make our cookie give-aways.

Our cookie design is like this, see image below, but of course the main color is purple!


I initially wanted to use our cookie give-away as our place card holders, where the table number of each guest is printed, but we haven't finalized it yet. Doms will be making the Thank You card taht will go along with our cookie give-away. I'm sure it will look great!

Next stop is our wedding ring. Doms and I were not very worried about finding a wedding ring because they are hundreds of jewelry stores here in Singapore and we see them everywhere. So, we just let time pass by and decided to buy the ring in December. This is where we went wrong.

Looking for a wedding ring is as hard as looking for needle in a haystack! Everything matters in searching for a ring. From how it looks like in our finger to how it goes along with my engagement ring. We really underestimated the power of searching for the "right" wedding ring.

Then we saw this wedding band in Taka, ION Orchard. Shempre, epal yung engaement ring ko kase sinama ko sa picture :)


We tried it on and we instantly loved it! The rings were thick just like what Doms wanted. The bands are made of 18K White Gold with a .3 CT diamond on each ring. What's best is we had a great deal and discount for the rings.

For Doms' wedding band the price was 1,350 sgd (45,562 php) and was discounted to 950 sgd (32,062 php) while my ring costs 950 sgd (31,9884 php) to 800 sgd (27,000 php). We were computing our savings and we immediately bought it because it's really value for money.

Next stop, Doms and I need to search for our wedding shoes and he needs to buy his belt, his inner shirt for his barong and his perfume.

So that's it for now! Until our next wedding accomplishment :)
