A new idea? Yeahuuu

Salam to all brides to be! =D
Its officially weekend for me and in few hours, lets all say helllooooo Saturday!!! hehehe.


Blog hopping is awesome! I stumble upon some wedding blogs which linked to some wedding website and found this great idea. Guess, apa nah?


Tadaaaaa!!!

a personalized favor bags for souvenirs/door gifts.

It looks great and its definitely cute. Color nya lagi bari grigitan. I was thinking to make this as one of my DIY projects, but....500 bags, terungkayah kan nda ni krg? hehehe. Plus, at this point of time, lets save some time and focus more on the major stuffs =)  Let me know where i can find these cute bags and if there's any local selling it in bulk at reasonable price (i meant cheap. hehe). Customized sizes would be great.

Have a nice weekend =DD

DIY - Door gifts

I wanted to make and bake my own door gifts for the guests. I never make any sugar cookies though, so might give it a try. If we don't succeed, we'll just call in the expert and make some orders. hehehe. Got the recipe form youtube

Inspired by marthastewartweddings.com, my sugar cookies might look like this. yayyy! excited! excited!

DIY - Part Two

Yayness! Another post for tonight =)


I've promised to post an entry for the invitation cards, but regretfully its not been finalized yet. InsyaAllah once we gave them the 'green light' this week, they'll start printing both of our cards. I've yet to proof-read and look at the draft. Once we are happy with the draft, the invitation cards will be ready in less than 2 weeks and we can start with the distribution.


Last October i've engaged 2 regional vendors to quote me on the wedding invitations. Me, having to share most of the brides to be fantasy.. hehe, was very determined to get the hard copy invitations. Both vendor quote at a very different price, one being very pricey and another boleh tahan lah (when i said boleh tahan, i actual meant tempted banar tah udah tu. huhu). 


Why boleh tahan? Coz they offered us a very attractive price PLUS a free thank you cards and plastic cover for every cards. For more than 600 cards, they'll print extra 50 cards for you. They even make special design for you, and customized the size of the cards to meet your requirement, say al wakil terlampau byk, they wont stick with the standard size but will proposed a size to make your invitation look purrfecttt! Which also means one thing, "One and only design for you". Atu jua nda tempted bah. Saya amatlah tempted.


After a few discussions with the fiance (few being 2-3 weeks or almost a month kali), the proposal was rejected =(. Initially he agreed, but when the price and the shipping costs were revealed , its a NO-NO! The fiance kept on reminding me not to spend too much on wedding invitations. "let use that money on more important things than cards." 


Luluhnya hati beta, huhu. So we, (i meant me) came back to reality and we start surveying for our invitation cards at the local printers company. Sungguh saya terkejut when we went to one of this local shop, he quoted us the same price for a one piece of soft card, where i can get the exact same price for my 'dream hardcopy invitation cards + ribbons + hot stamping + embossed + the thank you + plastic cover'. Shocking! Coz dulu harga invitation cards sana not as pricey as now. Me being me, buat muka penyeluru and konon confident lah that we can proceed to print our cards arah my first choice - regional printers, sekali nda kana layan. haha. But he was determined that we can get a good reasonable price at other local shops. Again, punah harapan beta. 


Dengan penuh sabar setelah men-surveyed cards in Miri, KK and seluruh brunei, Alhamdulillah, we finally found what we wanted =) He did made his point and gave me a smile. A reasonable price indeed. Im blessed with a very calm lovable fiance who always reminds me of everything. Thank you Sayang, sabar itu separuh dari iman =)


Will share with u guys on the finalised invitation cards once siap, insyaAllah. 


Here's the DIY invitation cards that i made for our Berian & Akad Nikah. Since we didnt get to print the cards that i wanted, and insert cards are quite pricey here, we decided to make our own cards for Berian & Akad Nikah dan Berbedak. Whats more exciting? I'll be making his cards too =D
