I have three addictions.
1. The piano
2. Hello Kitty
3. LIP GLOSS
I have a separate little makeup bag just for my lipglosses. My absolute favourite is Lancome Juicy Tubes in Hallucination. The colour looks nothing like the website - it’s ultra sheer, glittery and slightly pink. I wore it last year when I was in a friend’s wedding and when the other bridesmaids saw it, they put…

MP: DO TELL DO TELLLLLL. I’m still sick so I could use more sites to look at while I’m getting better!!!!!

I know she’s not engaged or even dating DJ AM anymore. But I just wanted to know how many of you loved her ring? I have to say that Nicole’s style is something I love so much. I’m going to ask my makeup artist to do my makeup like hers.
Ok that’s it. I’m still sick but I’m better! Thanks for your well wishes!

Aiyaya. I have the flu and I’ve felt pretty awful for the past three days, and I can’t say today is much better. So to those of you who left me comments or sent me emails, I apologise from the bottom of my heart.
Now I’ve been getting a lot of requests for an entry on ceremony music. Mrs. Ladybug did a wonderful job with tips…

Hello readers. I’ve had a pretty hectic week with school and being semi sick. I have the flu I think but with some meds I’m all good.
There are many things that we have finished and it feels super good, especially since the wedding is next summer. So I thought I would list things that I have finished and a list I must do.
Finished:
- Dress: it’s…

I know some brides out there are looking for these and a lovely reader has extras! Please leave a comment for her if you’re interested!
I recently had a wedding during the last week of August in California and have some extra guest favors I’m looking to sell. They are magnets of a bride & groom wearing the traditional Korean ‘hanboks’. One set is wearing the…

*Drumroll please*
My dress was shipped to me via UPS today at 6:30pm.
I tried it on and I love itttttt. I love it so much!! I got to refrain myself from trying it on everyday. I just need it taken in a bit and it’s good to go. But I’ll have my altering after the new year.
I’m all giggly. wheeeeeeee!

Then don’t read beyond this point!
They came in, they’re beautiful beyond description… I love Angela Liu!
I got 6 beautiful wristlets from her and they are unbelievable. The fabric is sturdy and thick and perfect for putting things in. The colours are vibrant and I was so happy with every single one of them. I wish that I had gotten one for myself!!
Since all six of…

There is this really cute, small floral shop a block or so from where we live. Mr. Poppy and I thought it would be nice to stop in and get quotes on possible flowers.
Let me just say it was a horrible experience. First she looked at us like… “You’re getting married???” Although she did mention that we looked young but still!!! Then when I asked…

My bridesmaids gifts are all finished, but I’m debating when to give it to them. One of the gifts I bought I actually want them to wear on the wedding day, but I don’t exactly want to tell them what it is quite yet!!! So, my question is… is it bad to give the gift super early? (Will they forget?) Or should I just wait…

I am currently on a site called Yelp! - it has reviews on businesses by real people like you and I. I use it a lot especially for wedding related things such as invitation/print shops and bakeries. So if you’re ever on it, go look at my reviews, add me or whatever else! I like it since it has a bunch of cities and you…

Is invitation shopping that difficult? Well for me it is. I think I have literally looked at everything online and have even gone into some print shops.
Last week we went with a friend of ours to a print shop and when they came up with a estimate for 80 invitations, it was $1600. That didn’t even include rvsp cards, direction/map cards and whatever inserts…

Mr. Poppy and I have matching cell phone accesories. I knew from the moment I saw them on yaishop’s etsy shop, I wanted to get them. Originally I wanted them as favours but I am actually planning on different favours and promise to write about them another time. But I couldn’t resist posting pics of the cell phones! Yaishop can customize and will work with…

Both Mr. Poppy and I are so blessed to have our officiant as one of our friends. He’s actually in ministry school but still works for the same company as my fiance. We knew from the very start that we would ask him since he has been such an encouragement and great friend.
Then a couple of Sundays ago, I saw him and his daughter. She…

Yes I finally decided that they will wear this. The pick up skirt matches my dress and the colour of the BM sash matches my dress colour!
