Wedding Planning 2

Mood: chirpy....
And finally we have a date! Hear hear all ye faithful blog readers. It's more or less gonna be in July. Hehe I've finally convinced him to have it in July so no excuses for all of you to not save up for that fat ang pao. (NOTE: The July here denotes July 2008. Just realised that it's not July yet so whenever I tell people I have to explain that it's NEXT YEAR :P) And yup we did it all without consulting anyone on a so-called "good" date. Bah.... too troublesome. I believe the day we get married is a good day for sure! Anyway whether a marriage lasts doesn't depend on what a silly book says but on how you manage to live with each other.

Anyway in my previous post I did mention I want to take a calendar out and just point, although I didn't do it in the end but we did something close to it. Actually this is more for the house than for the actual wedding since we sent our application in for the balloting and by the rule of our great government we die die need to show the marriage certificate in order to get the keys. So we resorted to working forward the dates as to when we roughly need to show our cert. There's a whole range of dates that we couldn't decide on so in the end we wrote numbers beside each date and wrote the numbers on blank papers, rolled them up and made my brother pick a number. Hahaha like the old days when our parents would make us pick 4D numbers for them during occasions like our birthdays.

Then came the planning of our budget. If neither of us print currencies than it's wiser to plan out our budget. With just a rough gauge only, we realise that we have a rather tight budget to work with. I'm glad we have so much more time on hand to save up for THE day. Sure hope my prudent money sense will come in handy this time.
