Wedding Video
the Story of Us (our Wedding Highlights Video)
Hi everyone! I have not been here lately not because the wedding is done, but more because of work and in-between moving in to hubby's place!
We got our highlights/trailer from our fab videographer Mayad studios and just wanted to share it to everyone. They did a great job in getting all the main points/highlights of our special day. Absolutely LOVE it! (Btw, if the HD version is lagging, click on the "HD" word to turn it off for a faster viewing experience!) |

DIY Wedding
Apothecary Jar Table Numbers (huh?!?!)
I was planning on blogging every single day in August up until the wedding day to chronicle my most exciting month but I missed an entry for yesterday! *boo* (I have my reasons though and it's wedding related - spent most of the day working with 2 of the best gals I've known: my MOH & Usherette-turned-BM!!!)
I had originally planned on working on the favors (putting labels on favors) but I miscalculated and ran out of labels so we ended up doing the table numbers. Now lemme backtrack a bit... if you've been following my posts, you should know that I have 30 apothecary jars sitting in my basement. It was supposed to be my original centerpiece when I thought we were having a simple wedding - which of course after watching WeTV, TLC and non-stop wedding channel - has changed and our "simple" wedding transformed into a grand event! (It also did not help that FI invited a TON of people - that's going to be a different blog all-together). So in my attempt to dispose all of these 30 jars, I thought of using them as table numbers! So I ordered vinyl decals from Coins4Sale (I know, the name is misleading. She DOES personalized decals though) but my mistake was I ordered it in WHITE... and I didn't know it was too narrow... but the deed is done and can't back out of it (I refuse to pay extra since I've spent a LOT already just figuring out how to re-use these jars!!!). Back to yesterday afternoon, my MOH & BM helped me glue personalized ribbons and stick the vinyl decals on the jars. My mom later joined our assembly-line and that extra hand helped speed up the process. (Btw, we started out at around 5pm and ended at 11pm!) All finished jars are back in their boxes for safe-keeping and closer to the date, we will be filling this out with gold water jewels & floralytes to make it glow like the one sample photo that I was able to make (note, it's only half-filled with jewels, we'll make it full for the day-of). A couple of things I've learned from the DIY session yesterday: My MOH has a talent for glues MY BM has a talent for ribbons My Mom is a natural with decals The coin is better than the credit card S Club 7!!! and most of all... 4-pair of hands is better than 1-pair of hands ^_^ So to my Mom, BM, MOH - thanks for stopping me from becoming a solo-DIY-er-bridezilla!!! |

Wedding Music And Songs
our wedding song - Beautiful by Jim Brickman sung by Wayne Brady
(note: we chose the Disney Cinderella version)
From the moment I saw you From the moment I looked into your eyes There was something about you I knew, I knew That you were once in a lifetime A treasure near impossible to find And I know how lucky I am to have you 'Cause I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away The beauty of the setting sun, that ends a perfect day And when it comes to shooting stars I have seen a few But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you Holding you in my arms, no one else's fit so perfectly I could dance forever with you, with you And at the stroke of midnight, please forgive me if I can't let go 'Cause I'd never dreamed I'd find a Cinderella of my own And I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away The beauty of the setting sun, that ends a perfect day And when it comes to shooting stars I've seen a few But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you Ohhh I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away The beauty of the setting sun, that ends a perfect day And when it comes to shooting stars I've seen a few But I've never seen anything... ohh No I've never seen anything... as beautiful as you From the moment I saw you From the moment I looked into your eyes |
