Wedding Preparation #1

Decided to document down whatever is happening during my wedding preparation so that I can reminisce in years to come by☺Whoever is reading, beware that this post is full of words and little pictures.
So last Tuesday on 16 September 2014, boyfriend decided to pop the question to his family on our decision about tying our knots mainly because we don't want to get married when the date of keys collection for our new house is near to reduce the financial burden on us. I expected a NO answer from boyfriend's father because this isn't the first time boyfriend asked and he gave a NO as an answer for at least THRICE. Surprisingly, this time he finally said YES and obviously, boyfriend and I was elated. And from there, I started sourcing.
Initially we didn't want a customary wedding nor a wedding dinner. What we wanted was to just sign the ROM papers and go for travelling. In chinese, we call it Travel Wedding 旅行结婚. However, boyfriend being the eldest son, we had to no choice but to go ahead with customary wedding with wedding dinner but in a simpler way.
Everything in this post is what I want / may get but not confirmed.
Date
- To hold a wedding, first thing to decide is to get the date fixed.
Mummy is a Christian and hence on my side, I don't have much to worry (I'm a free-thinker). We went ahead in our dialect way (We both are hokkien). We decided to ROM and hold the dinner on the same day to reduce any further costs. Initially I wanted it to be on the 9th May 2014, but however it was mentioned as an inauspicious date for wedding (according to boyfriend's family) and it clashes with Rabbit (boyfriend, I was born in the year of Monkey). Hence, I picked 27th June 2014.
