it will be over before i know it

we only get married once in our life.
yeah in some cases it might be twice or more, but that's different story.
so, in order to make sure that the wedding will be a successful event, the preparation itself is an exhausting long process.
it needs hard work and p.a.t.i.e.n.c.e., patience!

me myself, at times i do feel extremely stress.
everything is so tiring, but i just have to bear with it.
deep down inside, i wanted everything to be perfect, but i am lacking in terms of resources, financially & physically.

to hire a reputable wedding planner would cost a lot.
so i chose to organize the wedding by myself in an attempt to save my parents' money.
i have to handle every detail that needs to be handled.
things get difficult when i am a very detailed person, and fussy.
stress is one thing.
family drama is another thing.
sometimes i forced myself to tolerate on things that i actually did not agree or like.
suffice to say, i just want this to be over.

i said to myself, "it will be over before i know it", every time i felt so stress.
"everyone went through the same process and they have successfully made it, so it is nothing big".
"finish all these, i have a whole lot to look forward to!".
"at the end of the day, everything will be over. no use for me to obsess over the details".
haha so now i am sharing with you my motivational quotes.
you can use it if you want :P it works tau!

thank God there is nothing bad going on between me and my fiance.
yelah, orang cakap masa bertunang banyak dugaan, banyak bergaduh.
but alhamdulillah, practically, we didn't.
small-small fight tu tak kira lah, itu sejam je paling lama.
i am lucky to have a partner who can easily say "i am sorry" and doesn't have time for fights LOL.

but i know, when the wedding is over, i'm going to miss it.
i am going to miss the preparation process? are you kidding me?
most ppl told me the same thing.
or it is just in theory?
or ayat sedapkan hati? LOL.
whatever it is, i am trying to enjoy it.

sekian luahan perasaan saya.
bye.

a gift for my maid of honor

presenting the maid of honor of my wedding day, one of my best-est friend, dila anuar.

my MOH, dila anuar

she will be helping me dress on my wedding day and calming my nerves.
she is among the first person that i will turn to for help and advice.

due to that, she deserves a gift to let her know that i appreciate all the things that she will be doing and the time she will be spending for me on the most important days in my life.

since daily stress really takes its toll on me & dila (she's a busy working lady), i decided to bring her to spend some time for a spa visit.

look what i've got for us.

yeyy! an indulgent spa visit at eve de beaute, the strand, kota damansara.
and i bought it for two!

to dila, thank you for agreeing to be my maid of honor.
i hope you'll like the gift.
and all the kain-s as well!

pss the great deal was bought from milkadeal!
sangat berbaloi-baloi.
you can bring your husband with you.
or bring your maid of honor, just like me.
your mom ke, your sister ke, siapa-siapalah.

bila nak pergi niii?

reviews on dealsites

the voucher looks so yummy.
85% discounts on a package of body massage, steam bath and facial treatment.
normal price is rm236, so i can save more than 200 bucks.

i was about to buy this voucher from mydeal when i suddenly feel like googling on the spa.

until i found this in their blog.

haishh they lied on the normal price.
steam bath + body massage is only rm59.90.
and facial treatment is only rm48.
so where did the normal price of rm236 came from?

okay, maybe that's the grand opening promotion price.
still, i feel cheated.

famous blogger, thepinkstilettos, also reviewed on a deal that she bought from mydeal in this entry.
it was clearly stated in the deal she bought that "yummy! edible honey and chocolate used in the facial".
but then, she got a different type of facial.

i know that the goods and services in mydeal are provided by the partners and not by them.
but i think they have to be more alert with information provided by the partners.
information which is displayed in the dealsite must be accurate.
they have to do thorough checking on their partners so the customers won't feel cheated on deals offered by them.

in terms of dealsite layout and deals, i would prefer milkadeal.
they have language options - english or malay.
the writeups on partners and deals are more exciting to read.
and they have a discussion room where buyers can discuss on anything e.g. recent deals, previous deals, etc.
the best part is they offer rm5 milkadeal credit if we login through facebook.
and they will give us rm10 milkadeal credit when someone you invite/refer gets their first coupon.
milkadeal is a genius dealsite, no?

happy dealshopping, lovelies :)

"Fadlee & Aishah" vs "Aishah & Fadlee"

okay lovelies, i need your help.

is it weird if i chose to have "Fadlee & Aishah" written on the cover of the invitation cards instead of "Aishah & Fadlee".
i mean, the cards are for walimah at my place but i prefer to put his name first.
on the cover tau, bahagian dalam macam biasa je my name first.

my sister commented on the sticker tags, why "Fadlee & Aishah" and not "Aishah & Fadlee".
i don't know why, but i like it to be that way.
i deliberately put it that way because i wanted it to be that way.

but when ppl questioned me on that, i started to rethink.
orang tauhu tak yang i sengaja buat macamtu atau orang akan ingat i tersilap?

feedback please!

invitation cards vendor

yes, ilikecard is the chosen vendor for the invitation cards, and also for the sticker tags.
so far, i am very much satisfied with their service.
especially in terms of PR.
it is so good, i have nothing bad to say.

i chose them because i really like their work.
their previous works are amazing, which you can find here in their portfolio.
and i came across few of good reviews about them over the internet.

all this time, i am dealing with faizah.
she is a nice girl, never complained on her fussy client.
yes, i am the fussy client of her.

for those who are still searching for the right vendor, i am recommending ilikecard to you.
you will never regret, insyaAllah.
