xinyi_reiko 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2008 Excited lar.. In fact, we both very bo chup about the wedding, coz our minds are very very focused on the renovation of our flat nia.. That's why, the guests list, jie-meis and hongbaos were only settled just the very day before our AD... Even my hotel coordinator also buay tahan us.. saying, how come we never arrange anything with her at all.. It's her 1st time seeing young couples so relaxed about their big day..For our parents, they were really excited about everything.. His mum also rush here and there.. Prepare this prepare that.. My mum also called me everyday to ask about the progress.. My boy got 1 elder and younger brother.. He's the one to get married.. His mum, of course will be very jing zhang lar.. Maybe both your and his parents not 1st timers, that's why not very excited? i am the eldest.. but i dont feel any excitement from them.. feel very sian abt it..

Don't feel that ger.. I believe it's just becoz your AD is still some time away.. When the time comes near, maybe they will gan jiong more than you liao.. Don't dwell on it anymore k? Old people got their own wedding traditions.. It varies.. Like my mum and my boy's mum.. Just need to compromise and come to a final conclusion that is accepted by all...

It's like that one lah...i think every bride goes thru this stage...I also had a huge quarrel with my mum during the wedding preps...so many patterns and excuses until i boey tahan....I duno cried how many times liao....need to see the lighter side of things lor.....that time i also want to give up the whole wedding, then i thought if i give up, all my efforts will be wasted....then next time i look back, i surely will regret not putting up with it till the end....One word : Lun! but is like around 2 mths away.. i asked my mum to get a nice long dress for my wedding.. she insist no need. just wear a plain corktail dress will do. very upset abt it. is not like i wont pay for it. dress nicely got wrong meh?? ehh your situation really is a mirror image of mine...haha...My MIL went to tailor-made a cheongsum for our wedding...my mum insists on not wanting to waste money and got herself a cocktail dress for only $30....i told her I am paying but she don't want....but it's fine with me as long as she's comfortable....dun dwell on this lah....you also want your mum to feel comfortable in her outfit right? Even if you paid for it, and she feels uncomfortbale, she won't enjoy your wedding too....dun worry, this is xiao shi....some things you cannot insist too much, remember, some things can't just go the way you want them to be...Just let go of trivial matters and focus on the big ones instead, otherwise i think you will collapse very soon leh...

Don't be upset.. Take it easy girl.. Maybe your mum feels bad that you are paying for the dress? Initially, my mum also wanted to forgo something nice.. Coz she felt it's only for a night.. No need to waste the $$... Elders think differently.. But subsequently, I told her my boy's mummy also dressing up.. Then she understand it's respect for the others that she dresses up too..In the end, she really dressed up to the max, you can check out my photos in my friendster.. Much to my surprise..
