We are getting married!!!

Hi Everyone!

My name is Qiuru and my co-author and husband-to-be is Jeremy. And from the title of this entry and our blog, we are getting married. Next year in fact...
This blog is pretty much to our diary from now, the planning and research, till the wedding day next year. When is the wedding day? Hmm... That's a very good question. That's one of our biggest problems at this moment. Like all traditional chinese families, we rely on the Chinese Almanac to choose and auspicious date for the actual wedding. As I've just managed to get a copy of the Almanac today, I'll be handing it over to Jeremy's parents for them to choose the most auspicious date for both of us. Until then, we have look at another important thing, which is the registry of our marriage.

As of today, the only thing we kind of achieved is the signing up with a bridal studio for our wedding photos. We've signed up with Ivy Brides, who are a Taiwanese based bridal studio. As such, we will be flying to Taiwan to have our wedding photos taken sometime in May next year. That would be after our ROM.

We've settled the date and location for our ROM. It will be on 24 Apr 2010 at St Hilda's Secondary School. We had initially wanted 23 April instead, however, 23 April 2010 happens to be a Friday, thus the 23th instead. And we choose to go back to our Alma Mater to register our marriage. As cliche as it sounds, we are highschool sweethearts. We met back in 1997 when we were in Secondary One, and we were classmates. Haha!! And my wedding coordinator is my bestest friend Priscilla. Weve been working out the details of the ROM together. Lots of ideas have been poured out from both of us and its kinda dauting. There's alot of details to look into for a ROM for family and close friends. We are expecting about between 20-35 people for our ROM. That's quite alot of people. Haha!!

So for now.. Its more planning and researching.. Loads of things to look into.. Keep checking back for updates on our progress.

Cheerios!!
Qiuru
