Special Wedding and Birthday Cake

I am a dessert-holic. YES. You have no idea how much I ♥ dessert. Having a sweet tooth makes me a sweet and nice person. LOL. I just can't resist all those beautiful cakes, cupcakes and macaroons.

I ordered a special home-made wedding cake for our Malacca Reception. Kebaya theme cake is so lovely and definitely match our wedding theme - RED.

19th November is WY's birthday too. Was so lucky to have our wedding reception on his birthday. Myself and the team had surprise birthday celebration for him on that night without his knowledge. :p
Kak Siti from Lissa&Rayyan made another special birthday cake with Manchester United theme.

Oh ya... Not forgetting our special cows cuppies for morning sessions! Aren't they cute? :)

We have 2 cakes (almost 2kg each) and 378 cuppies for the day! Sounds crazy but I definitely LOVE all of them. She is very helpful and nice lady to work with.

Pre-Wedding Jitters

4 days till the wedding date.

Excited, nervous and worried. I have been so worried of everything that can go wrong. We all know that each and every girl would definitely have some kind of picture about her grand wedding ceremony on mind. I wish for a perfect and memorable wedding day. There is statement saying one of the most stressful days in many people's lives is their wedding. I hope it is common for one or both to feel really nervous. :)

I do experienced stressful period throughout our wedding preparations. I am glad that I have a calm and understanding partner. He never failed to squeeze in some lame jokes to cheer me up!

As time passed, I slowly realized that my level of patience and tolerance has increased. Thanks to my bunch of good friends. I look forward to our BIG day and the most anticipated honeymoon!!!

The Nyonya Reception!

We had our Nyonya reception last Saturday. Wow... I feel relieved that dinner went smooth and definitely satisfied. We had great company, good food and fun friends and family! Appreciate every single thing and efforts from everyone who made our day. And it was Wee Yang's birthday too~!

Started the day with Betrothal Gift Exchange ceremony or also know as Guo Da Li in mandarin. Family and relatives arrived as early as 9 morning. Lunch was prepared by mum and her helpful neighbours. They were kind enough to lend a hand for the whole morning session. I love my neighbourhood!

Our cows cuppies!

home-cooked lunch 

gift from Emily :)

The girls had lunch at my place before check in to their hotel for rest.

Left for Ambridge Cottage at 2.30pm for makeove and hairdo. Very early isn't it? The reason why I was early at the venue for dinner. :) I am the special bride to reached the venue before everyone else (except my relatives and friends).

I was nervous. Seriously. We have Birthday Surprise planned and I was afraid our guests will get bored. Thank god, no complaints YET. Lol. I was helped by the girls and siblings. Fuh... I don't think the dinner can be so fun and smooth without them.

Everyone has their own task for the Birthday Surprise! I have to make sure it remains secret, communicate with Feo Man and the gang and coordinate with everyone in the 'team'!

SURPRISE!

WY's birthday cake 

Birthday Boy~

As a 'mastermind', I have informed the restaurant PIC about my plans. 'Golok' the technical guy helped a lot, although there are some miscommunication in between. Overall, whole 'team' did an excellent job. :p

Speaking of dinner flow, we did encounter a little problem here and there especially the seating arrangement, unexpected amount of guests and delay in food (may be). We had so much fun towards the end as everyone was so excited and 'high'. Haha. Everything turned out perfect (almost) and we appreciate all the hard work and efforts as it really helps in making our day a success!

Love my beaded heels so much :)
Gotta plans for room decoration especially those frames!

Was kinda emo last weekend. Partly due to menstruation. LOL
And again, I simple feel uneasy when I was blamed unnecessarily!
I have strong personality and I consider myself a perfectionist.
Well, who doesn't want a perfect wedding?
Perfect doesn't necessary take a lot of money.
Been busy with office work and wedding preps.
Why do I need to please everyone else and meet the expectation of others?
Asking myself and I makes me think that I am living if someone's life.
Calm and everything will be alright!
After all, I've got a perfect man and others are some small stuff
Appreciate all the little things my mum and WY have done for the wedding.
And thanks for all the help and concern from friends and family.
You know who you are!

Feel great to meet up with the girls over the weekend.
I have so much fun catch up with Peggy and Alan.
We never had enough time talking - resulting a minor sore throat :p

Counting down the days!
*love & hugz*
