diary of a half cooked wedding planner
I know I know, should’ve have said diary of the bride-to-be…but one thing I’ve figure out this past few months – when u’re planning ur OWN wedding..the pressure is more intense, cause you’ll crack ur head wanting to make it too darn perfect (when u can’t). So I’ve decided to pretend that it’s not MY wedding I’m planning, instead its Lia’s or Kak Wani’s wedding hahahah. Hence I’d make the best I can but I wont kick myself in the head wanting the perfectness of everything. Take loads of pressure off my shoulder, in a way.

You should have seen my wedding checklist. I’ve made the most complete (huh I wish) checklist right down to the price of petaling st’s white roses. Heck, I even got a few bookings requesting for my precious checklist for my frenz future reference when their time is up. Maybe I should quit my job and become a wedding planner instead. On second thought maybe I don’t have to. With 4 adik ipar on tow (tunggu ikin..pastu faiz..pastu yati…pastu syafiq..hahaha) and my own 17 numbers (and counting) of anak buah, I have enuff wedding planning to last till I’m 50.

I’ve announce proudly to my 6th sis during raya that my color theme’ll be fuchsia+purple+white. And my sis just have this to remark , ‘Hmm…but u’re Gemini. Gemini is unpredictable and inconsistence. Next week maybe u’ll want green or brown or black’. Darn it, Ms Nazuha, don’t put ideas inside my head. Purple is good. Purple is good. Purple is….conventional. Purple is…done repetitive of times…no, no..purple is good. Huhuh…

Time’s flying so fast, we’re now already in November. Got so many things to do…and time is running out. Fati keeps scolding me for haven’t got the time to do our date massage+spa+facial and God-knows-wat, haven’t done the songket fitting@the butik yet, my date for trial session with my dear cik andam waney was shifted to Dis, my hantaran is only 30% done (and I’m having second thoughts bout the one finished…finally shove them under my bed to keep from messing them up), card is still in the design stage with the card-maker (I’m printing the inlay myself cause I want to put a personal touch), bedroom and pelamin still in sketching stage (we’ve decided to do this on our own…I have a bunch of creative sisters and frenz hahah), haven’t tempah my nikah baju yet…haven’t decided on the gift yet…and my budget is already bursting!!
|*_*| Sanity…please, please don’t leave me.
I’m trying my best to put a personal touch on everything…as this is a one in a life time special event for me and him. Being simple-minded person, I’m trying to avoid all those frills and exaggerated kerawang2 and concentrate on a clean, sleek look. Lil bit of kerrawang is nice, but set in a simple setting. Trying to break free from tired conventional routine…trying to be unique and special…but at the same time moderate enough to be accepted by the conservatives (esp my mom), cause I’m not marrying in the United States y’all, I’m marrying in Terengganu, the state proudly declared as Negeri cantik, Budaya menarik. Maybe I should get married on the beach with turtle eggs dangling from the coconut trees and serve keropok lekor to all. Darn, now that’s a scary thought.
T_T
But somehow in all this madness I’m praying that I wont forget to real objectives of all this, to gain Allah’s blessing…and to make my family and his family and our frenz happy in celebrating our union. I want to make it an event to remember, but above it all I want to make it a beginning for more special things onwards, beginning of making beautiful memories out of us. The beginning of sharing responsibility and love, in sickness and in health. To be there through the ups and down and to begin a team that completes each other. To be proud of each other and to fiercely protect each other’s weakness from others to see.
I want to begin this with utmost sincere heart. To let bygone be bygone and be committed fully to what I’ve destined to be. And you, my friend, your blessing to this would be awesome
