...and so the countdown begins...

I got 10 days
One for everytime I gone away
One for everytime I should have stayed...


And so the countdown begins. You know the countdown has started when you are thinking in terms of “this is my last insert activity as a bachelorette”. It starts of with big events like birthdays, Raya and narrows down to daily activities like working, watching movies, shopping, showering, eating dinner, blablabla…you get the idea.

And the more it narrows down, the more real the idea of marriage is becoming. Which is definitely not a bad thing, but the dauntingness of it all can get overwhelming. It helps that you keep busy with wedding preparations since we can only keep 7 or so things in our head at one time. And trust me, you’ll have more than 7 things in your head.

OK, so last weekend was filled with mostly sending out invites, procuring friends’ addresses over FB, text messages, family meetings on preparation before the BIG-day and guest list management.

The photographers? I am really excited about this. After much shopping around and deliberation, we decided to go with NurrStudio and Atiyya, photographers during our engagement last August. Personally, I like their style which is a mixture of artistic and standard poses. Photos are important since your wedding album is about the only thing you can show your kids long after you start showing your age. Although, I’m still nervous on how the photos will turn out (I hate buying experience goods), but lets hope for the best and smile a lot during the day.

We’re going DIY for the video though, getting snippets here and there and compiling it with a video editor. Based on my observation, wedding videos always seemed a bit too long and draggy, so it would be great to have a video with the highlights, mixed with the photos, with our favourite songs in the background. And my dear Xaty, you have to help me on this!


PEACE.
