Alhamdulillah, today has been another productive day.
today started at 10am and ended at 7pm but every second of that was filled with chores/errands i needed to do. and when i say 'need' i REALLY mean it because first strike-off from the list was a pelamin.
yes, exactly 30 days to my first function and only today have i decided on a pelamin.
it took a surprisingly short amount of time to choose one there and then, considering the amount of time i spent googling, researching, sketching, tossing and turning and agonizing over the pelamin design. i even dreamt about pelamins last night because i knew that today i had to make a final decision.
but alhamdulillah, i am blessed with honest, fashionable, fussy but practical bridesmaids. also, there was a new pelamin up on display today at nurhayana. One look at the new pelamin, i just knew i liked the frames (awu not the whole pelamin) because it didnt have chandeliers! hurray!!
so after discussing a bit with bridesmaid 1 and bridesmaid 2 (bridesmaid 3 couldnt make it and bridesmaid 4 is permanently unavailable due to study commitments and geographical difficulties), i decided on a colour, a centre and the rest of the details just flowed easily.
now i have a custom pelamin (which i had to pay extra but i am more than happy to do after what seems forever on coming to a decision) for berbedak and ambil-ambilan, thats one less thing to think about!
Dear Fiance also stopped by to join us and now he's got a pelamin as well. also chose his outfit for malam berbedak (because my dad's baju is just too tiny on him) and berziarah. Since the package was for a set, i had fun just choosing bajus because i was entitled to. so i got a beautiful pandan green and gold indian dress for my malam berpacar (which is actually non-existent but i'll just wear it on the night when im getting mehndi-ed) and a peachy silver kebaya for my badak2x mandi.
then i got to choose accessories and play princesses by trying on tiaras. fun!
Also made a pit stop at lauren to check out my baju bersanding and it is finally in its FINAL phase! now both bride and mind-reader bridesmaid agree on perfect colour and cut and i'll be able to pick it up on tuesday once they're done with stuffing it with more tulle (to enhance my derriere hehe).
last pit stop was kadai kain, to get the men in my family kain cara melayu for my nikah day.
please pray for me that everything goes as planned. amin!
much love,
rabi'a xoxo
