DIY: Hantaran (Gold & Black)

Hi lovelies,

Hari nie nak sambung cerita pasal my hantaran. Anyway, hantaran from my hubby bukan i gubah sendiri but his aunt did. Even masa tunang dulu pun his aunt buatkan tuk his side. Loved it so much! Sebabnye nampak exclusive and very contra with my hantaran yg more to sweet looks. Bila dalam gambar nampaklaa cam black vs white :)

Cara-cara nak buat hantaran nie idakler saye ketahui dgn specific..tapi kalau tengok from the pics maybe uols bleh guess decorative items yang digunakan. Eventho tak mampu nak explain in details camner nak gubah hantaran2 nie tapi rasanya tak salah kalau just share pics kan? Mane tau bleh bagi idea kat b2b yang tengah sibuk dok fikir theme hantaran. For those yang super creative maybe bleh figure out how to decorate your dulang hantaran just by looking at the pics.I know ramai yang creative. Masa i sibuk buat preparation dulu orang lain lagi sibuk buat macam2. Ade yang gubah bunga pahar sendiri, jahit bantal hantaran, buat candy buffet, buttonaires, guestbook.. pendek kate macam2 adelah. So yang mane tengah sibuk lagi ngan preparation.. banyak lagi idea bleh dicari.


Anyway, pape pun.. enjoy the pics ya!

 

bath set & perfume :)

 wedding ring + duit mas kahwin, shoes + clutch

 

chocholates & duit hantaran

Dalam banyak2 hantaran rasanya sirih junjung nielaa yang paling mahal & exclusive sebab guna fresh orchids. Jarang nak jumpe kan? Dan yang paling best skali sebab bunge2 nie sangat wangi! Bile letak dalam balik rase best je sebab bau dia kuat x macam roses. Kalau ade yang berminat nak cube ape salahnye.

Okaylaa.. sampai sini saje. Even x dpt nak share macam2 citer pun xpelaa kan. Janji ade. Sharing is caring right? Well, have a great week ahead! :)

Till then. Take care!

DIY: Hantaran Fresh Flowers (White & Purple)

Hi lovelies,

Rasanya dah lama tak bercerita pasal wedding stuff kan? Almaklumlaa, kite dah jadi mantan b2b. Erm, tetibe rasa rindu plak.. after wedding haritue still dok jenguk2 blog b2b lain yang sibuk buat preparation. Rasa seronok tue still sama je ngan before kawen. Maybe sebab dah melekat minat bab kerja2 kawen ni. Jadinye memang pantang tengok baju lawa ke.. kasut lawa ke.. kek lawa ke.. asalkan kena mengena ngan bab kawen sure rase seronok je :)


Anyway, hari ni trase macam nak share about my DIY hantaran. Dulu tak sempat buat review pun. So, sajelaa nak share hasil keje yg x seberapa nie. Thanks to my sis and cousins yg tolong siapkan my hantaran. Nie sume hasil keje last minute. Tak tahula dulu nape berkeras sangat nak gune fresh flowers. Maybe sebab dalam gambar nampak lagi cantik kot. Yelaa, nak preserve the memory selame yg boleh kan.. so naklaa gambar2 tue nampak cantik (walaupun just hantaran.. haha :p) Actually cita2 asalnye nak buat hantaran warna biru & putih.. tp at that time bunga kaler biru out of stock. So terpakselaa change to purple. Sah2laa orang kate i purple freak. Nikah purple.. sanding purple.. :D


Okaylaa, tak nak bebel panjang. Silelaa jamu mata ye. Kalau uols perasan, tray tue i recycle je yg i guna masa tunang. Jimat! hehehe :)

fruits-chocolate-tapai

sunglass & shoes

tafsir Al-Quran-kemeja-sirih junjung

Cara nak gubah hantaran nie senang je. Prepare span basah & aluminum foil. Pastue cucuk jelaa bunge tue ikut suke hati. heheh. Kalau yang macam dekat buah tue..xyah pakai span, selit2 aje. Lagi satu tips, make sure selalu spray bunga ngan air. So that bunga slalu nampak fresh :) Okaylaa..sampai sini saje. Nanti i continue ngan hantaran belah lelaki pulak ye.


Till then.

Post-Wedding Photography?

Hi there,

Ade sape2 penah buat post-wedding photo shoot? Well, since i don't have pre-wedding shoot (not keen on having one - due to some reasons) trase macam best gak if buat post wedding shoot. Bukannye ape, i have one more dress yang belum dipakai sampai hari nie. Baju back up mase nikah aritue sebenarnye... Nak pakai time biase2 nie rase cam x sesuai pulak. Kalau ade function ke takpelaa gak kan. So daripada dok simpan dalam almari, baik gune time photo shoot. Tak gitu? Actually, I have blogged about this once.. mase tue dok fikir2 mane venue yg sesuai tapi sampai sekarang still undecided. haiyooo... dasat sungguh ye

Well, trase macam nak buat two sessions - one semi formal & another one is casual. Location pun x pilih lagi. Bukan xde tempat best, tapi banyak pulak yang menarik. Sampai tak tahu nak pilih mana satu. Rambang mata sungguh :p Anyway, sementara i xleh nak decide venue ni, let me share some of my fav pix. Nie gambar yg dh lame godek.. source pun x ingt dh from where. 

Choice 1: Agak formal/Semi formal

 padang camtuh xde kat sini.. padang lalang pon bleylaa kot :p

 owh.. kalau mau scenery ala2 gini mestilaa kat pokok UPM tue kan

 picnic tepi tasik/pantai


My fav. venue - Putrajaya... mcm gambar2 kat bawah nie

Choice 2: Casual

beaches! i love beaches :)

 

 woods.. or ladang getah? nie kalau wat kat RRIM pon bley kot


satu lagi fav. venue selain Putrajaya --> Colmar Tropicale! 

 owh.. this one @ Putrajaya

back to school theme.. haha.. yg nie menarik! sah2 we ols xleh nk pakai baju skolah lame sbb dua2 dah mengembang dengan jayanya :p

Choice 3: Wat kat rumah je.. jimat minyak. hahaha

 matching Tees... so cute! tapi saye takde dapur cantik. pinjam dapur mak mertua bley? ade brannn? :p

and lastly.. sempat jugak berangan nak pix ala2 newlyweds kat bawah nie... huahaha.. giler koser! Okaylaa.. takat nie jelaa sesi jamu mate. Harap2 adelaa rezeki nak wat post-wed shoot. Tapi nak kena diet dulu kot. Badan dah bambam giler nie.. huahaha :p

PHOTO CREDIT: respective owners of the pix. kalau jmpe link nnti i provide. buat mase ni mmg lupe sgt2 

Till then.

Love,

DIY: Veil

Hi lovelies,

Sorry sangat sebab lately nie terlalu busy sampai tak sempat nak blogging. Baru dapat adjust diri kat new office and baru selesai ngan second reception. Tinggal satu majlis je lagi.. huhu. So sementara ada masa free nie blehlaa post about my DIY project. Kira cam bayar hutang laa ye. Banyak mende nak share tapi asyik kesuntukan masa je. Sorry again ya. Anyway, thanks to my new followers. Even dah lame takde new post ade gak yang sudi follow. Yang mana saya tak sempat follow balik tue please leave your link kat chatbox ye. Nanti ada masa i drop by kay :)

Okay, meh kite go straight to the point. Veil yang saya DIY nie untuk pakai masa nikah. Just guna chiffon sebab material ni paling senang nak handle kot. Senang nak jahit and iron. Actually veil nie antara yang paling last saya DIY. Semalaman before nikah dok bertungkus lumus jahit veil ni. Selamat menjadi gak (tapi xler vass pun) :D

Steps untuk buat veil nie agak senang sebenarnya. Kita gune numbering laa ye tuk mudahkan uols bace. Nak wat diagram cam x sempat lak.. ya ampun

1) Mula2 potong kain bentuk D. Nak gune chiffon ke net ke.. ikut citarasa masing2. Diameter and panjang tue ikut ukuran sendiri since uols bleh pilih nak buat selabuh mana. Kalau nak labuh lagi maybe bleh potong bentuk U. Then bleh hantar ke kedai tuk jahit tepi. Tapi kalau ade plan lain tuk hiasan tak perlulaa hantar jahit tepi tuh.

2) Untuk hiasan keliling or partial (bahagian kepala) blehlaa guna lace. As for me, gune aje lebihan kain lace yang digunekan tuk buat baju. Jimat!.. and nampaklaa sedonson sket kan. hehe. Kalau material baju uols bukan lace, bleh je beli border lace or patching lace. Kat kedai kain xpun kedai jual barang2 kawin ade jual. Lace ni saya potong bahagian border and bunga tuk letak di bahagian penjuru & tengah veil.

3) Jahit lace atas kain veil. Kalau dah kesuntukan masa, maybe leh praktik cara saye. Gam aje! hehe... x caye? Silelaa percaya.. just gune gam UHU okeh. Memang agak tak senonoh di situ tapi dh emergency sgt, nak wat gane kan? :p

4) Since saya tak pegi hantar kedai tuk jahit tepi kain tue (padahal tak sempat).. so untuk cover tepi kain yang nampak sangat buruk tuh saye lipat tepi sambil jahit manik di sekeliling veil (konon emergency, skali bleh plak tekun menjahit keliling veil tuh.. naseb2.. nak cover part yang berbulu ngan senget benget tuh sebenarnye). Time nie memang terpakse gagahkan diri. Kalau tak, konfem cepat je siap veil ni. 

5) For final touch, i added some pearls untuk hiasan atas kepala (yang nie kenalaa jahit. kalau nak gam jugak tak tahulaa camner hasilnye :p). Kalau nak style lain sikit maybe bleh jahit pearls tue as juraian bahagian tepi keliling veil.

That's all! Senang je kan? :) 

Hehehe.. Bulehlaa kan daripada takde langsung. Lagipun saye nie memang stock yang fail bab menjahit. Kire okaylaa kan tue. Maybe i'm lucky sebab lace yang saye gune tue senang nak dipotong and border dia sangat cantik (at least pade mate saye..hehehe). So to all b2b yang bersemangat nak DIY veil sendiri, selamat mencuba! :)

Till then.

Update: Last Weekend As a Single Woman

Hi lovelies,

Meh nak sambung citer about my last minute preparation. Last week sebenarnye antara my most progressive week i must say. Sebabnye berjaya settle mengecat bilik then berjaya tempah fresh flower and... WEDDING CAKE! Seriously, i placed the order just few days ago. Tak caye? huhuhu.. Kan dah kate, i'm a last minute person. Banyak mende yang dibuat last minute but luckily everything goes accordingly. Alhamdulillah :)

ouhh, saye x order pillow cake pun. saje tempek gmbr nie sbb kek nie nmpk gojes :)

So far persiapan kawen xdelaa stressed me out, mende2 lain yang buat saye tension.  Started ngan barang yang paling saye sayang hilang. Down giler tapi bile fikir2 redha jelaa. Mungkin bukan rezeki saya. Pastue last Thursday my car broke down kat Setia Alam when i was on my way to Klang. Selamatlaa time tue betul2 tgh berhenti kat area pump station and shop lots so takdelaa terkontang kanting sorang2. Then dekat plak ngan site my temok, jadinye blehlaa dier datang jadi my savior. huhuhu. Rosak tue bukan ape, masalah bateri. Last month penah dah kong kat Bangsar Village, then after isi air bateri and re-charge okay jap. Ni kong balik. So i decided to change the battery. Gune dry battery lagi better kan. Sebabnye saye bukan stock yang rajin nak check air bateri. Huhuhu... Humpphh.. tak pasal2 melayang RM200+ kat situ. Then esoknye tue tayar kete plak pancit kat Jalan Loke Yew. Adehh.. Satu2 masalah. Tue nak kena tukar gak tayar tuh. Banyak lak expenses lari last2 minute nie. Pastue kelmarin tibe2 paip rumah bocor then salur air tersumbat plak, ape lagi habislaa melimpah air tuh. kitaorg lak sibuk mengemas, memang x perasan lansung. tak pasal2 banjir bilik tido my parents. Kul 4 pagi kitaorg dok mencedok air. Dapatlaalaa dalam 4-5 baldi air... huhuhu :(

Despite of the misfortune events that happened, i was called for an interview last Friday. Interview tuh on Monday morning. 3 hari before wedding sempat lagi pegi interview ye. Dhler dah dua malam berturut2 x cukup tidur menyiapkan bilik. Slumber je redah interview ngan mata panda (@_@) Alhamdulillah everything goes well during the interview. Harap2 adelaa rezeki ngan company nie. It's a big company and the industry is fast growing. It would be a great stepping stone for me if i'm accepted to work there.  Doa2laa ye. Mane tahu rezeki kawen kan. Ameen :)

di saat B2B lain dok pi manjekan diri kat spa.. dok buat facial... buat manicure, pedicure... saye pulak dok bergelumang ngan cat and sibuk bertukang.. haihhh :p

So, back to wedding preps punye update. Ape yang dah settle last weekend? (next weekend dah jadi wife orang. rase cam x caye je :p)

1st - Set katil saye dah sampai. Last 2 weeks pi settle payment kat their showroom at Bangsar :)

Update: Floristika Bangsar

Hi lovelies!

I have many things to share with you but due to time constraint i have to make it phase by phase. Jadinye kite citer satu2 ye dulu. Lots of things going on.. almaklumlaa, dah saat2 kecemasan dah nie! (tapi sempat lagi blogging eks? :p) Well, i'm officially on leave today sampaila next week. So bleh focus more on the wedding preps :)

Anyway, for those that have been following me sure tau yang i nie jenis last minute punye orang. Sume mende pun last minute! Luckily i didn't freak out like most bridezilla do. hehehe. So ape lagi yang last minute kali nie? The fresh flowers! Last week baru pegi Floristika Bangsar tuk tempah bunga2 yang nak digunekan masa majlis akad nikah and reception. Slumber je kan pi cari vendor last2 minute. Well, since my wedding will be on CNY so i have to pick up the flowers a day earlier (nampak gayenye kena tumpang office abah i laa tuk simpan bunge2 tue) The price for flowers that imported from China will increase too during CNY season. At least by 10%. So nak tak nak kena prepare jelaa tuk bear the cost.

pink roses... antara yang saye order :)

Actually, bleh je if nak pegi beli terus on 2nd Feb tapi since dah pegi sane last week, terus je pilih2 bunge and place the booking sebab i don't think i'll have time to pick up those flowers nanti. Keje tue kena pass kat my sis. One thing about Floristika yang saye suke adalah layanan from the staff. They let me go through the flowers first, then bile dah ready nak place order baru dia akan follow. Sambil2 tue bleh mintak explanation from them and ask for their opinion. Mende yang saye tak suke? It's freezing like h*** kot dok dalam chiller room tue. Terketar2 i nak tengok bunge. Rase macam kat Paris lak. huahaha (tapi dah memang bunge2 tue nak suhu sejuk kan? nak wat gane :p) So, lets see some of the flowers available when i visited Floristika.

carnation spray - purple

 carnation spray - pink

filler flowers - mix dianthus

 white daisy

eustoma - my favorite! tapi xleh nak beli sebab x tahan lama :(

Banyak lagi bunge yang ade. Tulips, lilies etc. Kalau rasa nak cari fresh flowers especially if u are looking for imported ones, silelaa singgah sini. Sebab Floristika nie mmg wholesaler so rasanya lagi banyak choice kalau datang beli kat sini. Price wise pun okay. Kalau nak lagi best, sile datang time stock baru masuk. Bleh je call them and tanye bile stock baru sampai. Konfem lagi banyak pilihan :)

S0me detail 4 uols:
Floristika

Open daily 8AM - 10PM

Okay, tue je update kali nie. Wait for my next entry ye :)

p/s: to my followers yang saye x sempat lagi nak follow back or exchange link.. can u do me a favor my leaving ur link at the chatbox? i will get back to u asap. thanks :)

Till then.

Best Regards,

Update: Make Up Story

Hi lovelies,

Countdown starts! 7 days left... and sempat lagi berangan2! hahaha. Asyik duk angan2 mat jenin jer. Keje banyak lagi x settle sempat gak nak blogging. hehehe. Kasi can laa ye. Nak release tension sat. Anyway, hari nie nak share pasal my favorite make up style. Saye suke make up yang highlight part mata even mate x bape nk power pun (berangan mata ala2 org Arab... so nnti lehlaa jeling lebih2 :p)  Slalunye orang kate mate saye bulat, jadinye rase best je kalau dapat highlight tang mate. Lagipun saye jarang pakai eyeliner or eyeshadow. So if skali skale dapat pakai (esp kalau orang pakaikan), memang teruja laa :D

Pix atas nie sgt2 gojes (maybe sbb orangnye dah sedia lawa), but then sgt suke tgk make up dier. nampak very subtle and sweet (credit to editing gak :p) Another make up style yang saye suke adelah make up Rani Mukherji (yerp, i'm a big fan of her) sebab dia slalu highlight part mata and lipstick pilihan dia slalunye nude colors jer. Sangat2 suke! Nampak simple aje kan. Takler nampak tebal 10 inci cam tepung gomak.

 

 kalau uols perasan, make up Rani slalunye nampak same je.. yang beza biasenye warna eyeshadow dia. most of the time dier pilih brownish.. tapi kadang2 ade gak gune purple or blue (setakat yg saye noticed laa)

So, when i look for MUA basically mende yang saye focus adelah make up tang mata and pilihan lipstick! Luckily i found what i want. Cube tgk gambar bawah nie, ade ala2 style make up Rani tak? hehehe... both pix bawah nie antara hasil keje my MUA. harap2nye my time nanti blehlaa nampak cantek ala2 Rani gak (eventho muke x bape nak cantik.. hiks :p)

To those yang giat mencari MUA maybe familiar with this pix. hehehe.. kalau tahu sape punye gambar nie maka uols tahulaa sape MUA saye nantii :) Alhamdulillah, even saye booked agak last minute and just through online je.. cepat pulak saye dapat jawapan & luckily MUA tue free on my date (dpt tau some ppl ssh nak reach this MUA.. x tahulaa nape lak ye. maybe rezeki saye senang je dpt) Yelaa, kadang2 orang book MUA a year before! Saye nie lak, less than 5 months baru terkedek2 cari itu ini. So bile tahu je dia free, terus letak deposit. Tak fikir ape dah :D

kalau nak try lipstick terang sket maybe leh mintak MUA buat camnie

Blum nak reveal lagi sape my MUA, nantilaa kot.. skali ngan full review. hehehe. Hopefully everything will turn out well *fingers crossed*

p/s: rasa cam nak buat threading. sape tau tempat yang best and murah? hehehe (sempat lagi ke ni nak buat?)

With Love,
