Makeup by Ayang Kamell

Remember my last entry on Makeup?
At first i memang nk pilih mak andam biasa2 je kat Batu Pahat but bila survey2 takder satu pon yang berkenan!
Memang pening. 2nd option amik dari KL.
Alang2 amik dari KL, baik amik yg terbaik.
or dari kalangan yang terbaik. hihi

Macam entry yang lepas, pilih makeup artist yg sesuai mcm carik jodoh!
Harga, availability and PR dorg sangat memainkan peranan penting.
Akhirnyerh mungkin dah tertulis yang makeup saya dirias oleh Ayang Kamell.

Alhamdulillah sangat senang deal ngn Ayang.
Dahla datang awal. Kol 7pagi dah smpai rumah. 8.30 dah abes makeup siap ada byk masa utk pose puas2 dlm bilik. hihihihi

Both my akad nikah n reception makeup done by him.
Ayang Kamell is highly recommended!
sbb...

- Makeup neutral n flawless tahan smpai petang
- tak berminyak
- Sangat baik tak sombong byk bagi tips bila tanyer mcm2
- terer pakaikan baju n accessories lelaki. tgok alip ensem je kan? hahahaha

Jom layan gambar.

 Akad Nikah

Reception

Btw contact lense color brown memang membantu! hihihihi. beli kat BP Mall harga RM34/40.
Tak ingt.
Perhaps my first and the last pakai contact lense?
Seksa u olls~ naseb dah prektis few days b4.
Tp masa buat outdoor pukul 6 petang tuh dah rasa nk pitam sbb mata dah sgt kabur yang amat.
Kena beli liquid utk kasik mata fresh if wedding 1 ari suntuk kie.
But i gave my best for the outdoor shooting walaupon mata dah kabur sgt mcm cermin keter di kala cuaca berjerebu. hahaha

Tq Ayang~
Everyone love ur makeup.
n i received alot of emails regarding to it.
Ayang based in KL not in Batu Pahat.
If anyone needs recommendation any makeup artist/mak andam from batu pahat mintak maap byk2 sbb mmg tak dpt tolong.

Maybe boleh tgok blog foto by razali n if u like the bride's makeup, can ask them?
Normally the bride will comment in the related blog post with their FB account.
I hope this helps sbb i tau susah sgt bab makeup ni kalo nk cari at the bp area.

Tudung, Shawl, Veil

1. Akad Nikah
Selama ni tak pernah pakai tudung awning. Then akad nikah terasa nak sgt pakai tudung awning tp puas la carik yg sesuai tak jumpa~ try semua pon nmpak boolat muka. until i try at Hajra sebelah Jakel shah alam. Ohs rupanyerh yang sesuai di muka ku material dia lycra. Dapat color soft pink suka giler ok. sbb susah sgt nk cari color dusty pink. Hehe tp taknak pakai tuh smata i nk make it as inner. So i padankan ngn shawl RM10 i beli kat small boutique at Batu Pahat. Harga tudung lycra awning ni FREE. hehe jap g cter. But puas ati sgt sbb tak perlu membazir kat tudung . Alhamdulillah cost tudung utk akad nikah = RM10.

2. Reception at Batu Pahat
Pas dapat baju Rico pening plak style aperkah untuk tudungku. Sebab dari awal terasa mcm taknak pakai veil. nk somethg different. Pastu terasa nak pakai anak tudung mysaa tp pening mana nak cari color gold/cream? Siap msg Renee sbb ada satu link Renee post dulu bride tuh pakai mysaa anak tudung mmg berkenan sgt hati. then bride tuh ckp buat ngn Qudyn aziz. agak2 la kan. perlukah aku membzir lagi untuk reception satu ari? hehe kalau dgn designer tuh ntah baper ntah nti kena charge. So google la 'maysaa anak tudung' dengan harapan byk la vendor2 dah buat trend ni dgn harga murah. Jumpa lah blog ni. Haha harga tak murah tp beli jugak color gold sbb rasanyerh akan match. Puas ati 3 ari je dpt.

Pastuh matching kan ngn shawl chiffon RM10 beli kat Batu Pahat. n outer kena la liplap sket g Hajra ohs suka nyerh byk sgt pilihan dengan harga tak mencekik darah spt di Arianni. Tp veil jenis pendek yg i nk dah takder color mcm gold or cream. sobs dah lama eyeing tp tak beli2 last2 tak dpt beli.

So second option is tudung siti ni. okla it turns out not bad. I can be trendsetter too hahaha. now go and mix n match ur maysaa anak tudung with this tudung siti. ker dah common aku jer baru tau? haha wuteva. Mahal sikitla tudung siti beading ni tp rasanyerh sgt berbaloi sbb boleh sewakan or boleh pakai masa raya? but i rasa i akan sewakan sekali dengan baju reception nanti. Ohs beli tudung siti ni dpt free any tudung lycra tuh. yahoo. so dats explain naper tudung lycra td free.

Total cost, tudung siti beading (RM150 with free lycra tudung) + anak tudung maysaa (RM60) = RM210

Pose ala2 jelita. hahaha

3. Reception at Putrajaya
Sebab dah terbeli chiffon 1 layer kat Arianni (mahal cekik darah tol arianni ni. RM30 kot! padahal kat jalan tar lepas beli terjumpa RM10 jerhhh!) so padankan ngn maysaa putih. Beli kat blog yang sama.
Total cost, chiffon mahal arianni (RM30) + anak tudung maysaa (RM60) = RM90
*Kalau nak save cost, beli je plain shawl putih biasa yg RM10 tuh. Byk jual kat kedai2 tudung biasa kat any Giant.

Kesimpulan: Beli anak tudung maysaa sangat berbaloi sbb skrg tengah in, and boleh suai padan untuk aper2 event pon.

Veil
Tak dapat gambar dari belakang betul2 dari OP so takleh nk tunjuk. Apapon sangat puas ati veil akad nikah yg Rico tolong alter kan. I just request plain veil with patch kat hujung belakang bukan kat kepala.

Veil Reception Putrajaya by Nik mmg tak puas ati ngn beading nyerh but wuteva la. time tuh rasa veil tuh tak memberi impact yang besar di gambar pon. Janji ada. ^-^

Reception Attire at Batu Pahat

This gonna be my favourite entry of all.

My Reception dress by Rico Rinaldi 
Percaya tak masa buat dress ni adalah 4 bulan setengah before my wedding.
Sebab time tuh bila estimate budget alamak macam tak ckup nk tempah dress ngn tailor mahupon designer.
So start survey few boutiques. Memang weekend g butik kawen la test2 baju.
Tapi ada jerh tak kena.
Samada harga sewa baju gila gabeng smpai 1-2k untuk dress jer tuh.
Kalau sewa smpai begituh harga nyerh mmg tak berbaloi la rasanyerh.
Nak buat kat tailor pon cecah RM600.
Masih rasa tak berbaloi sbb tuh harga belum masuk kain.
Nanti campur kain lalalala sure cecah 1k gak.
aihs..so mmg pending n malas nk pk.
Pastuh tak tau design cmner yg aku nak.

Prob is concept kat batu pahat adalah garden. But i tak rasa nak pakai modern since Putrajaya concept dah modern.
So traditional tp i mmg taknak kebaya.
Bila cakap nak pakai dress sopan, mak dah bebel2 takot dress tuh nampak tak senonohla aperla.
Mak kata ni kat kampung nanti orang cakap aper plak padahal dress cmner pon aku taktau. haha.

Tuh yang g Jakel padahal teman mak n adik beli kain dorg, ntah cmner terasa nak beli kain for my reception tanpa discuss dulu ngn husband.
Rilek je beli kain.
Dah beli pening plak nak hantar kat saper n fashion aper nk buat.

Thanks to Adlin for her suggestion to send to Rico.
Gamble je g Kajang jumpa Rico with my friend since husband i di Arab bekerja time tuh.

Apa yang buat saya terharu sangat2, time tuh appointment kol 5 petang kot.
Sampai2, Rico yang time tuh tengah melayan customer kat meja dia, bangun dan sambut n salam saya di muka pintu and keeps on saying sorry sebab saya kena menunggu jap sebab dia tak habis lagi layan customer.
Wah, bagi saya dats a good sign.

Sebenarnyerh saya takder la kesah sgt nk tunggu pon sbb tak rush nak ke mana2. huhu
So borak2 la ngn assistant dia sambil go tru his portfolio.
Tengok2 eh rupanyerh dia lagi muda dari saya.

Pas setengah jam kot or 20 mins baru la discussion dia ngn customer tuh habis.
n dia suh customer2 tuh salam n say sorry dari saya sbb dorg sampai lambat n terambil slot time saya. Gituhla.
Terkjut gak haha tak sangka walaupon dia tak kenal saper saya tapi dia respect saya smpai tahap cmtuh.
For me, if attitude ok, InsyaAllah everythgs gonna b ok.

Since i roughly dah tau cmner i nk, so i just show him few pics as reference and my sketches as well.
Also i asked for his availability and his opinions on my dress.
Pastuh i asik ckp sorry tau...material i simpleeee ajerhhhh biasalah low budget.
ahahaha i cuma ckp do his best.
N then dia tanyerh budget i baper.

Price dia slightly over my budget but i faham la nama pon designer.
Pastuh dia suh i pk dulu ok or tak.
Then i pk balik, hermssss rasa ok la walaupon lari sket.
Tak byk sgt.
So okla just proceed.

First fitting pon dia yang ingtkan haha sbb i busy giler kat opis.
Bila dtg fitting tros menjerit kesukaan sbb suka padahal time tuh loose lagi. But suka sbb rasa mcm princess habis.
Rasa baju ni confirm mak i suka. Sebab sopan n cantik.
2nd fitting longgar sket bahagian lengan sbb i dah kurus kot but takperla sbb dia ketatkan on the dot tunggu setengah jam cmtuh dah siap dah.

I tak buat veil ngn dia sebab haha again on budget. tight budget la dekat2 wedding.
Ingat nak sewa jer dari sesaper or beli veil murah2 dari mana2 butik.
Gituhla sbb i rasa baju tuh da cantik so i tak perlu worry much about the veil.

Anyway, yeah dia tau i blogger since i mention i knew him tru Adlin hehe.
But for me first impression is always right.
It's really easy deal with Rico.
He is very humble, polite and so kind.

In fact if i knew him from beginning, i should just send all my dresses to him.
You guys should visit his boutique.
Alot of pretty dresses with nice beadings.
Sigh.
For me it's worth every penny.
Cutting pon sedap. sebab tak ketat. Just nice to my body.

Groom's attire by Azika Collection
Dari awal, mmg dah pk nak sewa jer baju Alip since tengok baju2 kat Azika Collection cantik sangat untuk lelaki, terletak kat badan.
My husband is a bit fussy like me.
Sebab susah sangat nk carik tempat sewa baju lelaki yang kemas, cantik n murah.
Cuma dorg ni kena improve customer servis dorg sket kot.
Ada staff dia yang nama ila tuh baik sangat. Yang lain2 tuh mak aih, sangat la sombong.
So i mmg call ila je. Takder ila ni, malas nk deal ngn lain2.
Sewa pon harga dia sangat affordable compare to the other places.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I pilih color cream sbb senang nanti nak sewa untuk baju Alip sbb cream color common untuk wedding. :p
Alhamdulillah naseb baik color kitorg masuk sangat2.

Again, thanks to Rico Rinaldi yang baik sangat melayan i walaupon i bukan artis. Juga tak pernah cancel our appointment and sabar melayan i especially sbb tolong alter veil akad nikah i yang hampir disaster made by the other designer tuh.

If Rico being able to keep his low profile attitude ni, InsyaAllah I believe he can go really far.
I can see his passion and talents in him.
Tak pelik kalau satu hari nanti dia akan jadi sehebat Rizalman.
Yang penting dia kena jaga kualiti setiap kerja dia.
Seperti mana yang kita tau hasil kerja rizalman sangat halus dan tersendiri kan.

For me Rico akan jumpa style dia sendiri jugak nanti.
Passion, hard works and experiences will bring him far~

My dress by Rico Rinaldi. Alip in Azika Collection.

Mak i call baju i DBKL dress sebab i sapu smer sampah kat lantai dewan. :p

Akad Nikah Attire

Indah jugak masuk ofis awal.
Ofis start kol 9 pagi. sekarang 8.30 tepat da smpai ofis. Siap dah breakfast dari rumah.
Hebat kan? Something that i never do for all this while. Haha.
I always arrive office on time or slightly 10 mins late? :p
Sekarang kan share 1 keter ke tempat kjr, so suami hantar i dulu.
Walaupon i dah offer nak hantar dia luh, tp dia taknak. Sebab dia masuk 8.30 pagi.
Hurms so dia lambat sket smpai i plak terawal. Camner tuh.

Anyway, arini tentang akad nikah attire.
Attire by Nik Erwan Roseli.
Ingat post yang lepas?
Lepas dah decide nak color apa, i msg few bloggers asked for how many meter for the materials that they bought for their attire.
Thanks to Miss Yuyu and Sab yang baik melayan email saya.
So carikla kat kedai beli.
It's my first time buy lace and chiffon by myself.
I have the idea in my mind like how it suppose to be, but not sure if the designer able to do it or not.

The drama
The materials really pretty, and i feel the execution can be improved better if the designer put much effort on it.
But to my disappointment, it was herms almost become disaster.
I had 5x fitting with the designer - and imagine i had to travel from kelana jaya (which famously known for it's terrible jam at LDP after work) to shah alam for so many time just to make sure it was perfect to my body.
The last fitting, i gave up and just said ok to it - with deep disappointment inside.
I send to a tailor - ask to alter it a bit - make it loose, because the designer make it too fitted.
No, im not gain any weight at all, In fact, i lose weight.
I dun understand y the designer make it too tight at the first fitting.
Isn't any designer shud know that first fitting, shud make it loose - 2nd fitting, shud be better.
Even the chinese tailor told me, it was bad executed, and takkan the designer tak fikir this is for akad nikah, which i have to duduk bersimpuh kat bawah. If duduk, pakai ketat2, memang seksa la badan kan.
If the chinese tailor can think like dat, isn't it weird the designer not be able to think the same way?
Hurms, but i redha. Benda dah berlaku.

Yaps, i shud be thankful for at least he still wants to alter it.
Even tho he keeps on cancel our appointment.
Sorry to say, but we really had bad experience with him.
Perhaps i shud say im a blogger from the very beginning, and maybe he will treat me nicer?

Maybe other people have great experience with him, but for us, it's almost become a nightmare.
Actually the outcome not like wut you see in the picture.
I dah tangalkan beading yang pelik n nampak weird.
Bayangkan i tak boleh tido bila tengok beading yang berserabut.
So i decided to tanggalkan the beading and make it simple just like dat.
Yes, at the end, the attire looks nice and pretty altho i knew i cant fit into that anymore after this since it was too fitted to my body.

The veil
I have to ask my other designer to alter it since i dah nak muntah darah deal with him.
I tak kisah if nak patch lace kat bahagian atas, tapi make it nicer. Ni bila i tgok pon, herms i rasa sedih.
Nak taknak terpaksa make pity face ask my other designer to help to alter it.
Nasib baik my other designer baik sangat nak tolong.
Actually for akad nikah, i nak simple ajerh tp cantik.
Pastuh tgok gambar2 baju kat FierNawal i rasa sedih sbb they can execute better.
The materials lebih kurang sama, tp bayangkan FierNawal yang baru bertapak kurang setahun pon mampu buat lebih cantik.

Anyway, benda dah lepas.
Im sorry i terpaksa ceritakan jugak. Ambil masa yang lama untuk i decide nak cerita or tak.
Sebab i rasa ni memang betul2 satu penganiayaan.
I hope other brides 2 be berhati2 dlm memilih designer yang betul.
Ni kisah betul.
Mungkin orang lain menerima layanan yang sempurna dan tak seteruk saya.

Nanti, bila dah sedia, i akan sewakan untuk sesiapa yang berminat kie.
Sekarang i tgh busy. hehe

p/s: I really had GREAT experience working with the other designer. Macam langit dan bumi layanan yang diberikan padahal harga lebih kurang je for all attires. Itu i ceritakan di entry seterusnyerh ok. :)

Baju akad nikah yang akhirnyerh cantik jugak di badan dengan 1001 cerita di belakang.
5x fitting with the designer, 1x altered by tailor, veil altered by other designer.

I still feel the outcome can be nicer if the execution can be improve. wuwuu. takperla benda dah lepas.

I taknak mengaibkan sesiapa dalam hal ni. Tapi pengalaman yang i lalui sangat menyakitkan.

It's something that i have forgive but i can never forget.

Yang penting i taknak other brides to be lalui apa yang i lalui.

Sebab i tau susah nyerh kita semua bekerja keras mencari rezeki halal and we want the best for our wedding.

Yet, we've been treated like this.

Pelamin Akad Nikah and Reception at Batu Pahat

I have plenty artworks to submit yet im still blogging.
Ish2 just consider this as 1 way to release stress? :p

Pelamin was beautifully done by Syura Bridal House.
You can read my previous entry on how i do my research.
I did little survey on few boutiques in Batu Pahat but most of the boutique/shops close during that time.
So, without wasting time, i follow my heart to just choose vendor from JB.
Reason is, i dun want to have any headache for my big day later. huhu

You know Syura, bekas penyanyi traditional tuh?
Hehe yeah it's her. Rite now she focus on her bridal boutique.
She still looks pretty when first i saw her.
and terkejut bila menjelang my big day, dia tengah menunggu hari for her 3rd child.
How time flies. Because i book her 10 months before my wedding.

Still, she gave her full commitment on my pelamin.
The team came early, Friday evening to setup everything until midnite.
Few days after my big day, she delivered her 3rd baby. huhu naseb tak terberanak on my wed. :p

For past 10 months, believe it or not i just deal with her tru emails and she responded very fast.
Masa awal2 jumpa, i dah tunjuk gambar semua macamana i nak.
So bila email, senang la. Just to confirm everythg. Just on akad nikah pelamin jerh pending on design n color.
n i just did stupid thg!
On the last email to her to finalize things, i accidentally send wrong info on how pelamin i want.

Sepatutnyerh pelamin akad nikah ku ada kerusi takder belakang. wuwuu. just a simple one. supaya bergambar cantik sket la.
Dahla time tuh tgh pakai inai. tunggu inai kering.
n my 2nd sister helped to deal with the pelamin team since they send the items a day before to set it up.
Since i was busy with my henna, i mintak tolong my sis assist pelamin stuffs.
Bila akakku cakap pelamin akad nikah kat rumah takder kerusi eh rai?

I was like...whattttttttttttt? No way!
Dengan inai tak kering lagi, i teros basuh tangan, I tros called Syura, asked what happen sambil separa bridezilla mode. (Thats explain why my inai nyerh design a bit kembang. Bridezilla lagih saper suh)
Then Syura said isn't that what i had confirmed at my last email?
Dengan bengang tros check email.

There it is. My fault. Biggest mistake.
I ter-paste wrong info on my pelamin at the email.
'Pelamin without kerusi - cushion style'.
Huwaaaaaaa.
Pandai kan?
Lesson here: NEVER reply emails in office!

Dengan hati redha, and stress gak la since everyone mula2 asked y la my pelamin so small yada2.....
tp on my big day, tak sangka, it turns out pretty~ haha
So tips to other brides to be: Sometimes things are out of our control. Rilex. Bersabar. Redha. On big day, just be happy. Trust me, when u r happy, it shows on the face. Pelamin sederhana pon tiba2 nampak cantik n sweet ajerh.

Pelamin Rumah (Akad Nikah)

Pelamin Reception:
Haha i think i have no complaint at all for this.
LOVE IT to the MAXIMUM.
Just like how i want it to be.
Sederhana dan tak berlebihan.
NICE and PRETTY~
Semua orang pon suka.

I know kat KL dah berlambah ala2 garden ni.
Kat Batu pahat jerh tak berapa lagi.
So everyone datang to my wed kinda excited with it.
Like me. hahaha.

Pelamin Dewan

 

Dengan Syura, korang boleh la request memacam benda2 kecik, dia tak charge sgt.
Contoh, bantal akad nikah, and payung putih. :)

I think dats all about pelamin.

You can contact Syura on their FB:  Syura Bridal House.
Korang boleh cakap camni, 'I know about u dari Raihana yg kawen kat BP yang cerewet tuh'. haha
Syura tau i cerewet tapi dia sangat sabar yer melayan i especially time i kena bridezilla mode tuh i rasa i ada ter-jerit sikit kat dia tru phone. Dahla dia pregnant time tuh. Ohs terok nyerh i.
Tp i dah said sorry dah since it was my mistake.

Hehe i guess, where's the fun part of ur wed rite, without lil dramas here n there? :p
If you read this Syura, thanks alot! It's really easy working with you. :)

Being wife.

Arini rehat dari update pasal review leh?

hehe sajer nak buat entry santai.
Sekarang pukul 2.26am and i still havent sleep trying my best to complete my freelance job.
Selepas balik dari honeymoon, mmg tader masa lapang lagi.

I think honeymoon is the only time hubby and i stay away from our laptop and we able to spend our quality time together.

After back to malaysia, we received alot of emails related to works. pheww.

Just what we expected.
So sorry if ramai email past few weeks and i lambat reply k.

Tp still susah nyerh la bila mood rehat nak tukar tune buat kjr.
I only have time to unpack our clothes properly and put into cupboard last week.
Which is a week after i totally recover from my illness- demam n batuk.

Tong gas tak bli lagi. Plan nak beli Ahad tp tunda lagi sbb both of us stuck with pile of jobs.

Sabtu sekarang i alternate kjr.
But husband being helpful on houseworks. Alhamdulillah.

Pergi rumah mentua pon dapat tolong mentua masa waktu makan jer la.

Tolong masak n after masak.

After dat stuck in da room try to finish our freelance works again.
Atho mother in law understand our situation but i still feel bad.

Harap situation ni sementara. Husband is sleeping n i cant sleep next to him rite now because if i do, tak dpt la submit kjr mlm ni. wuwuu.

Takper knr be strong. Ramai lagi pasangan yg PJJ as well yang laki bini kjr lain shift kan?
Plus mcm2 dugaan yg setiap orang alami.

Yang penting husband n wife kena saling tolong menolong.
Thats wut we remind each other everyday.

Skrg ni mmg pegang pada motto 'Bersusah2 dulu, bersenang2 kemudian'. :)

Sebelom ada baby bekerja keras la. Nanti da ada baby, takya la struggle sebegini. hihi

ok la boii
nway congrats to all pretty brides who just got married last weekend. :)

Emcee Akad Nikah & Reception

Best jugak lunch tak g memana few days ni.
Rasa ada moment peace sendiri kat ofis.
Sebab dah kahwin ni, setiap saat adalah emas.
Tak boleh berlengah buat kerja, nanti ada jer kerja tak siap and sendiri yang susah hati.
Now i know y my parents laju jerh buat kerja setiap jam.

Hehe so today about Emcee.
Dari tahun lepas lagi bila decide nak kahwin, dah tau dah nak suh saper jadi Emcee.
Tak lain tak bukan my cousin who has 20 years working experience as Emcee in corporate event and weddings.
If bukan dia, serius tak tau nak suh siapa.

Sebab pernah tgok dia jadi Emcee in other cousin nyerh wed. Memang kelakar.
Tp kelakar yg bukan merapik tau. Means lawak tak over. Just nice. Tak mengantuk dan tak annoying.

Cuba angkat tangan baper byk wed yg korg g, dia nyerh Emcee cakap merapik2 and buat lawak syok sindrik?
For me Emcee yang bagus kena pandai handle majlis and tepati aturcara majlis yang telah disediakan.
They should know how to handle any unexpected situation, people or technical errors which commonly happened in any events.

For example, masa akad nikah, i dah cakap kat Alip, takya pantun2, sebab nak buat simple je akad nikah. Tiba2 belah lelaki ada pantun. agagaga. amik ko.
But my cousin rilex je time2 tuh dia pon boleh balas pantun on da dot.

Thanks to my cousin both my akad nikah and reception went well and everyone said Emcee best n bagus.
My akad nikah started at 9am and he arrived as early as 7am. We dun have any rehearsal but we discussed tru emails for past few months before the event. A day before my big day, he called to confirm and discuss about everythg.

For me, Emcee play important role especially when u have 2 in 1 event like mine. I had bertunang and akad nikah at the same time. Alhamdulillah i think both events went well takder kucar kacir  :)

So, anyone who needs his service doing Emcee, can contact him tru his FB here.
Rite now he worked in KL and JB. So privilege to those who stay at this 2 area. hehe
Tanyerla pasal price sendiri kie.
He also just started his Emcee blog. InsyaAllah i will help to design his blog later and he will update about his experiences more as Emcee in his blog. :)

My cousin look serious in picture. But trust me dia tak garang pon in person k. :p

This picture is interesting. Look how kepoh we are on the stage. :p

*Sorry abg ngah gambar elok kena tunggu dari OP. hehe guna gambar yg ada jer. :)

Handbouquets by Daun Sireh Butik Perkahwinan

Sepatutnyerh entry kali ni tentang MC tapi saya terpaksa tukar kepada entry hand bouquet atas sebab2 tertentu yang kalian akan tahu di akhir entry ini.

Hand bouquets adalah antara item last yang saya fikirkan lantaran mengutamakan item2 yang lebih penting dahulu. Sebulan setengah sebelum perkahwinan barulah saya sibuk msg and email beberapa vendor yang saya dah simpan laman facebook mereka and tanyakan tentang harga dan availability mereka.

I dunno why but i really like handbouquets by Daun Sireh Butik Perkahwinan. Walaupon tak banyak lagi koleksi handbouquets dorg lagi time tuh dlm facebook dorg, tp saya dapat rasakan handbouquets yg dorg dah buat for their prev clients menepati citarasa saya.

Terus saya msg dan tanya harga. Kebetulan harga pon ok memenuhi budget saya. Then i send some pics as reference macamana yang saya mahu dan saya hanya follow up few days b4 my wed. Walaupon saya kahwin di Johor tp tetap menggunakan vendor dari KL sbb senang. Saya takot nak take risk ambil dari batu pahat sbb nanti tak puas ati saya juga yg sedih.

Bagi saya handbouquets cantik penting untuk tujuan bergambar. Plus if it's pretty sure akan buat saya lebih berkeyakinan di hari bahagia saya.

Adik saya yang di UITM Shah Alam bebel jugakla sbb dia kena bawak 2 handbouquets saya balik. Kena pegang dalam keter for the whole 3 hours journey since it's fresh flowers. Sebab dorg balik friday nite which is a day b4 my big days. Naseb baik bunga masih dlm keadaan baik bila sampai Batu Pahat n i couldn't stop smiling because both handbouquets are so pretty.

Bunga tahan sampai beberapa hari. 

Sebab suka sangat dengan kedua2 handbouquets, saya msg lagi pemilik Daun Sireh Butik Perkahwinan untuk buat handbouquet saya belah Putrajaya. Alhamdulillah mungkin kami serasi bekerja bersama, dia agree untuk buat walaupon gap cuma kurang 2 minggu. 

Ini ketiga2 handbouquets saya.

Semalam saya dapat tahu melalui laman facebook beliau, yang beliau telah pergi ke pangkuan Ilahi.
Rasa terkejut sbb saya jumpa last masa majlis persandingan saya di Putrajaya semasa beliau menyerahkan handbouquet saya.

Walaupon dapat jumpa sekejap, tp saya dapat rasakan arwah seorang yang baik.

Innalillah Semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat di atas rohnyer dan membalas jasa baik beliau.

Catering at Batu Pahat by Dzan Catering

As mention in prev entry, catering food was by Dzan Catering.

Korang takkan menyesal hire dorg because they knew wuts best for ur wed.
They even suggest wut kind of song u shud provide during berarak.
I dun have much time to download any malay songs, luckily they have backup malay songs.
So they kinda good on arranging/mix my english songs with their malay songs.
Altho masa berarak menuju ke dewan, muka aku dah berkerut dgr lagu melayu yang asing di telinga.
It's like bila plak aku download and burn lagu ni?
But masa dalam dewan, i understand they mix the songs. The malay songs that they chose not really bad at all.
Masa berarak tak ingt lagu aper. ahaha i was busy smiling to all cameras and being careful not to step on my own dress. :p

Actually my parents yang cari catering.
I tak tahu menahu.
Tugas i pilih color alas meja.
Menu parents i yang pilih.
Since dorg banyak g wed, im sure the knew well.

But setahu i, catering ni agak femes di batu pahat.
Plus mmg berbaloi, sbb dorg provide dancers as well.
So tak payah pening kepala nak cari penari zapin n joget.:)
We really satisfied with their services.
Rasanyerh food ok dat day. Ramai cakap sedap.

Cuma ada a few things i think they can improve better:-

• Color alas meja patut lebih variety - Provide more soft and pastel colors. Since trends nowadays 2011/2012 are pastel colors. I choose dusty pink because thats da only pastel color in their package! hahaha. 
• They shud change their mic/improve their sound system. Mic ala2 karaoke je. Because i dgr dari atas pelamin, sound tak berapa clear. Im pretty sure it's da mic. See even tho i shud just sit on the pelamin n enjoy the day, i still notice this small lil things. :p

But for me, it just small things. Yang penting we love their services. Efficient ok. Khamis malam dah abes setup pasang semua nyerh. 

Contact them for more details kie.

P/S: Yesterday, i had fever and hubby took care of me. We just move to our house at Damansara and the house still in the mess. Worst is, it's rain after office hour and we were caught in the jam. Hubby had to buy me bubur ayam MCD since i ate nothing from morning and dats the only thing i can digest. I hardly sick, once i sick it's seriously terrible ok. I was shaking and fall asleep in the car during the traffic jam. Our house ceiling got leaking when we reached home and the bedroom got affected a bit with some drain. Hubby have to clean the drain by himself while im so weak straight to bed after took medicine. It was bad day but i believe this is just lil test for us. Hope we will be able to go tru all His tests along this marriage life. InsyaAllah. However, it feels good to have husband on your side, take care of u, and go tru this hard situation together. :)
