Tentative programme - roughly done..but still need to make it proper again...

Life after marriage
Home sweet home - loan approved Alhamdulillah, to sign S&P, apply KWSP, should be after our big day almost settle all about it

Honeymoon - our house kot…or maybe dekat2 ajelah…

Huhu so many things to do..but I believe we have progress quite good esp the major one has been booked like mak andam, photog

I still have few DIY that never ending *100% done by myself ape tak nyer..*but I still bloghopping to esp bride-to-be blogs....mana yg bagus saya ambil idea, mana yg saya tak mampu atau x berkenan – just leave it...since diff people have diff taste and budget...

I believe that we must try not compare from one wedding to another...sebab we do not contribute in $$$ pun kan..? of course yg mampu will spend to what they have, while brides yg bergolok-gadai all the saving will try their best to allocate all the $$$ *saya pun begitu...walaupun sy tulis all the part : Big day..all about wedding xsemua mgkn sy dpt penuhi..but at least sy mengenjoykan berangan dgn tengok gambar....berangan kan FREE!! *

Ok…bersambung kemudian..but before that enjoy the only pic…Congrats to Azam dan Shamsiah for their wedding *for both of us kenduri penutup 2008*

psstt.. since afraid that all my wedding things "hilang seri", I have decided not to put any pics on it..but surely I will post it once..after our big day..- lagipun my wedding should be something simple..nothing super-duper marvellous
