Been worrying about having last minute fire-fighting situation especially in the last few days before the big day. But everything went smooth sailing except PY who had been sick for a week running high fever & thus couldn’t make it for our wedding. And that meant… We had to find a stand-in Main Co-ord in less than 1 day! I was like “oh no… my nightmare has become a reality!!”. But I was real glad & relieved to have wonderful jie-meis around who came to our rescue. So we did a bit of reshuffling with the list – Sara, instead of taking charge of our music part, became our MC & we pulled Celena in to take care of the music. Really thanks to Celena who’s always so willing to help & doesn’t mind doing any task, be it ‘dirty’ jobs or minor ones.
Come back to the eve... as we recalled we’re surprised by the no. of things we settled in just 1 day. By the time we finally called it a day, it’s already nearing 10pm! What I remember most clearly out of the whole day’s activities was when Vince saw us off in a cab after a series of mad rush, all of a sudden I felt sad & couldn’t bear to part with him… the kinda feeling’s just like when I bade him farewell @ the airport before each of my trips. Was so used to having him around, taking care of everything for me. So told myself that I would see him again very soon, early next morning... when it would become the happiest part in my life!
On the way home, was telling Ann my 6th sense (ha! such an old-fashion word rite??) told me I’d soon be receiving a call from her aunt, who’s my mum. And true enough in less than 10 mins, mum called & started nagging that why I was still out & I needed to rest early… … … … … Actually my sis was also shocked to know that I was still on the road when she smsed me around the same time. Hee…
After reaching home, I was busy compiling the checklists, details & emailed to the 2 gals. Had tele-briefings with them & got it settled by 12. Then modified my wrist corsages… they were too huge! There’s no doubt that our dear florist wanted to prove that they’re worth every cent of the $10 per piece, in total $60! But I want my sisters to look pretty with them & not as if they’re carrying small flower pots on their wrists!! So did a bit of trimming & arrangement... At least they looked less intimidating after.
Washed my hair & showered @ about 1am. Then finalised the packing for the following day & cleared up the room. When I was finally done, it’s already close to 3am & I was supposed to be up @ 430am as my make-up artist would arrive @ 5.15am. Had a short conversation with my honey who’s also busy helping out his mum’s last minute tasks, preparing for the speech & the special item he wanted to dedicate to me.
Felt that I only had a few winks before the alarm went ringing… Same for my poor honey.
