it's a new beginning...(part 6)

A lot of emotions have been going around these past few weeks just for the "The Big Day" to be as perfect as possible... Exactly 3 months away now~

Alhamdulillah... After much tears, arguments, misunderstanding... We have come to conclusions on few matters;

Honeymoon Trip
Much deliberation. Searching, discussing, thinking, here and there... We decided to go to Phuket and Bangkok for our honeymoon. No worries for the near-budget-trip location, as long as we get to relax and enjoy ourselves that is mostly more than enough.

We will be flying off to Phuket first on 15 January 2013, Insya Allah... Return back to Singapore on 17 January, and once again fly to Bangkok! Fiuuuhhh~

And this trip is just for the 2 of us. And.... Hey ho, everybody! We will be staying at Sala Phuket Resort & Spa. Awesomeness! I got blown away by only viewing their photo gallery at the website. Let me just share few pictures here from their Facebook Page...

Jealous much? Haha :) You can do your booking at their website -> www.salaresorts.com/phuket

Our purpose of choosing 2 locations, basically at Phuket is for us to relax. And to Bangkok, where we are actually bringing both families along. Just for shopping :D

And I'm contented! Because, Mr. Fiancee has pinky-promised with me for another Honeymoon trip to Paris in either March or April 2013. So, Amirah, if you are reading this... Please psycho your husband for your anniversary gift there! And we can shop there together!!! How great is that, huh?

Wedding Bands
Seriously, it is just so difficult looking for Platinum ring for guys. Not much jewelry shops that brings in Platinum. We asked almost all shops; SK, Goldhearts, Soo Kee, Taka, Meyson... Just one shop that we did not ask, thinking the price must be a "bomb" because of the "atas" brand look. It's Lee Hwa Jewelry. So, yesterday, we just stepped in and asked and voila! They do have Platinum ring for guys... And maybe luck is on our side, they are celebrating their 42nd Anniversary. Discounts, baby!!!

Our choice - bottom right

Platinum for Him

White Gold for Her

Platinum ring for guys can cost up to SGD 3K. And for this one, I'm getting it at affordable and unimaginable cheap price! Of course, white gold is my choice - another item under the Mahr.

Why not Suasa? I've googled and searched here and there... Suasa - is a mixture of copper and there's an element of gold, more to gold so that the item will not get rusty. And in Islam, men are forbidden from wearing gold (anything relating to gold).

White gold? Even though it is white but there is still element of gold in there. So Platinum or Silver is allowed, as Nabi Muhammad p.b.u.h once wore silver ring before. And Platinum is another factor of metal one of the chemical element in periodic table, mixture of nickel, and copper.

Wedding Cake
To blend in with my Garden-theme-wedding. I'm choosing to add Rainbow Cake as my wedding cake.

Both my sisters will be baking the wedding cake. I'm just feeling blessed with them... I've discussed with them the concept... So, surprise me sista!

We had fun during our selection outfits. A total of 4 outfits - White Dress for Nikah, Turquoise Ghangra for "Berinai", Songket Orange for Sanding, and Red/Black Gown for "Dinner". Satisfied with the color chosen, our favourite colors by the way!

So, now! I need to confirm with my Sanding Program Schedule... Mom!

Oh! Toodles for now peeps!
