The Furniture

I want that beautiful red sofa.
Fabric. Not leather or jati, but real fabric.
I hate jati.

But I don't think it will be quite suitable for us since fabric sofa prone to be dirtied quite easily, right?

'what if someday, my kids termuntah atas sofa tu.
mesti akan mengamuk sakan la mak dia ni, kan?
...

Whatever it is, I've told my dear hubby that our sofa must be in red color.
And guess what? He totally agreed with me.
*wink wink*

And striking green curtains to match with it.

And that gorgeous Japanese-style bedroom set from Cavenzi.



or this lovely Balinese-style bed.



And that crooked-shaped display cabinet.

And the stunning room divider.



and, and...
'wahhh sangat tak sabarlah mau membeli-belah nih!



and, oh... look at that!
This contemporary living room set is made of belle suede and wood.

Very nice, kan.
I'm sooo into this type of modern design.
Home-studio.

'maybe cream-colored sofa is not so bad after all.
I can always use red curtain to match with it.
hem hem.

Tadi time video conference kat opis, kepala otak aku bole dok terpikir pasal that red sofa and the green curtain.

very the ding-dong.

Another 8 months until our wedding and I haven't prepared a thing!
Hantaran untuk majlis tunang ni pun lansung tak disentuh lagi.

haish haish.
Terover excited la pulak dengan furniture untuk rumah baru.

Engagement Dress

I'm going to wear red for my Engagement Day.
real red.
my fav chilli chilli red.

Aritu waktu jumpa my mak andam, he asked me what's the color of my dress.
When I said red, dia gelak.
Dia cakap kat my mum, orang zaman sekarang ni warna dah tak macam dulu.
Semua nak yang berani-berani.
Dulu-dulu kan kaler mesti la ala-ala pastel gitu.
Typical white.

haih.

I love red.
I do love red.
Tapi bukan aku kemaruk sangat nak pakai merah gini pun time bertunang nanti.
Tapi sebab baju tu memang dah sedia ada, given by my aunty yang ada boutique kat Subang nuu, dah memang sangat lawa, so baik guna untuk majlis ni kan.
Tak payah la susah-susah nak sewa, or susah-susah nak buat baju lain, nak kena carik tailor lagi.

Baju nikah aku tu pun terbiar dalam beg lagi sebab tatau mau nempah di mana.

haih haih.

Lain kali pun tatau bila ntah nak guna baju ni lagi.
My annual dinner selalunya ada theme sendiri.
Lagipun takkan nak pakai baju merah meriah begini kan ^ ^

So, muktamad.
I'm going to wear red for my engagement.
And of course akan memaksa si dia juga ^ ^

Sekian.

The Wedding Book

I've finally got my official blue-colored Wedding Book.
yey at last ^ ^
but why on earth that I choose blue, I don't know.

Now I can jot down all the important things yang terlintas kat otak such as the cost of this and that, the tailor, the suitable design, the bridal, the souvenir, etc etc.

But so far the only thing that I've wrote in it is my list of hantaran.
sigh.
harus lebih rajin ni ye cik.

And I've got my Wedding File also.
A place where I clips all the receipts of our buyings for the engagement and wedding.

'haa improvement kan nih ^ ^

oh dear.
so much to do and so little time T_T

Anyway, those who wants to share their thoughts with me can drop their email at the Komen box. Tak nyempatlah mau mereply di sini but insya allah I'll get back to u as soon as possible.

ya, and by email of course ^ ^

The Ring

We've found the ring.
yep.
my beautiful, gorgeous engagement ring.
...

Last week we went to Habib Jewel to buy it.
My hubby and me.
We've already went there once.
Konon-kononnya mau jalan-jalan survey-survey dulu.
Tapi entah macam mana boleh terpaut hati dengan satu cincin nih.
3 mata.
Memang sangat tastylah.
Harga pun not bad.

Tapi si dia tak berapa suka pulak.
He likes the other one better.
the vintage, timeless solitaire...

He said that it is much better, bigger and lovelier.
Tapi lebih mahal juger.

Actually aku bukan nak yang mahal sangat pun.
Yang 3 mata tu memang dah sedang elok la tu.
It is more stylish and modern look.
Tapi si dia yang sangat bermurah hati telah memberikan yang lebih baik.
the spectacular, classic cut diamond ring...
He said that he loves me so much dan ini tanda cintanya yang sangat mendalam pada aku.

'kan sangat sweet bila dia cakap camtu time kami tgh sibuk memilih cincin kan.
hiks.

Bila tengok ulang-ulang, gosh... I felt so ecstatic!
And I can't stop staring at it!

It is absolutely my dream ring...
Now I can't wait for the day to come ^-^

Thank you dear...
thank you thank you thank you ^-^
Love u sooo much!
...

2 days until our Merisik day.
Sunday, 5th April 2009.
another lovely ring on my finger.
**wink wink**

Songkok - Songket

Last Monday, waktu balik ke kampung, suda membeli songkok pun for him.

Actually he bought it himself kat Batu Pahat.
Songkok tinggi pulak tu.
Nasib baik la aku request untuk buat baju melayu Cekak Musang tu dia nak.
Kalau tak terpaksa la makai Teluk Belanga untuk nikah nanti.
haish.

Then cari-cari songket untuk buat hantaran tak jumpa yang menarik pulak.
My mum nak order from her fren yang duduk kat Terengganu tu tapi takut nanti tak ikut citarasa kami jadi aku cakap takpelah nanti nak cari sendiri.

On the way balik ke JB, singgah kat Angsana.
Fortunately banyak kedai yang jual songket kat situ.
Harga pun not bad la.
Songket Pakistan around RM40++ and Terengganu around RM100++
Survey je dulu mana tau kot tempat lain nanti ada yang lagi best.

Then, singgah kat Habib Jewel.
Tengah sale sekarang ni.
Tapi harga emas pun memang tengah mahal la.
RM122.00 per gram.
fuh~

Hubby said mau beli weekend ni.
And he wants us to complete all our hantaran.
Songket, Tafsir Al-Quran, Rehal, Wallet/Pouch Bag, Shoes, etc etc.

So he'll be here on Sunday.
yey~ bershopping-shopping lagi ^-^

Tempah baju nikah

gosh... 3 months to go and I haven't prepared anything!
Baju nikah yang nak buat hantaran tu pun tak berjahit lagi!

adoi... mana la nak carik tempat buat baju nikah kat JB ni.
peningnya kepala...

Kalau tempah mana-mana takut dia buat tak cantik.
I don't want to try and error.
I want everything to be perfect.

So, kalau ada sesiapa tau tempat buat baju nikah/kawin yang lawa tapi tak berapa mahal sila la bagitau yeh.

hum hum.

Engagement Makeups

Last 2 weeks waktu my sis balik ke sini, we went out to search for her wedding gowns. Sebab dia takut dress yang wedding planner dia carikkan tu tak ikut taste dia.

Jalan-jalan kat a few bridal boutiques kat situ, tapi tak jumpa pulak yang menepati citarasa. Aku pun memang tengah mencari mak andam for my engagement day so ikutkan je la.

Most of the bridal charge around 150++ for makeups only. And I plan to book this one makeup artist for my big day sebab hasil tangan dia memang cantik and selalu masuk magazine.

Adli Bridal.

Tapi time tu ingatkan besoknya la baru nak book sebab dia suruh datang tengok-tengok baju dulu kat main shop dia kat JB tu.

Then, lepas pusing-pusing kat bridal tu, kami pun terus ke rumah Amril.
He's my sis's wedding planner.
Sebab lepas ni bulan 3 nanti baru dia balik ke sini lagi, so she decided to finalize everything for her wedding.
The photographer, the makeups, the dress, the canopy, the table arrangement, the flower, the pelamin, everything.

Tengah dok belek-belek album kat rumah dia tiba-tiba ternampak gambar my old fren yang baru kawin aritu.

Kebetulan, aku sempat pergi ke kenduri dia and her makeups memang omg... truly marvelous'lah!

On the spot aku tanya berapa charge utk engagement makeups.
Dia cakap, sebab dah alang-alang mak andam tu nak mekap untuk Angah, so dia charge 120 je la. Siap dengan tudung, selendang and a few accessories. Datang rumah lagi ha.

Maka on the spot la aku telah membooking dia.
So okeh, satu perkara setel.

'wawawa sangat suker ^-^

Belt

Bought this at City Square.
Si dia lebih suka menempah daripada membeli, jadi untuk hantaran, kami telah menempah di situ sajer.

Tak mahal sangat pun.
Tali pinggang yang dia gunakan sekarang pun tempah di situ.
Dah bertahun-tahun guna masih elok lagi.
Lansung tak rosak.
Jadi aku rasa sangat berbaloilah dengan harganya.

Then, cadangnya mau cari wallet to be paired with the belt.
Tapi wallet yang dia gunakan sekarang ni pun masih baru lagi.
He wants a small leather pouch bag.
Tapi tak jumpa pulak yang menepati citarasa.
*agaknya kena nunggu sale lain kali lah ya dear ^-^

Last weekend, balik dari Desaru, kami singgah di Kota Tinggi.
Sebab ramai yang cakap barang-barang di situ agak murah berbanding tempat lain. Dah alang-alang lalu, jadi kami pun singgahlah.

And yes, the price is quite cheap compared to other places in JB.
Banyak pilihan lagi.
Kat Ayer Hitam tu kalau nak ikutkan sebenarnya lagi mahal.

Hubby tanya, aku konfiden ke nak buatkan hantaran untuk dia.
Aku gelak.
Aku cakap, ala nanti sampai masanya mesti siap punyalah.
Dia cakap, sempat ke balik opis aku nak nyambung buat keje remeh temeh ni pulak kat umah. he said, daripada aku nak try and error untuk hantaran dia, better la dia beli yang dah siap lawa-lawa kat situ.

hiks.

He said, he wants his hantaran to be grander than mine.
wahaha.
no way man ^-^

Heels & Handbag

Jalan-jalan kat Metrojaya aritu terjumpa pulak 2 benda ni.
wahh sangat suker!

Mula-mula ingat nak beli handbag Guess tapi macam sama lak dengan yang kat pasar malam tu so tak jadi la.

Nasib baik jumpa handbag ELLE yang sangat tasty nih.
Tengah sale pulak tu.
Dapat extra voucher lagi.
Tu yang hubby terus beli.
*hum hum mekasih dear ^-^

So, this is the heels and handbag that he'll give me for his hantaran.
*oh, mau yang real nantilah aku nunjuk bila suda siap semuanya ya.

Tatau la heels tu berjaya tak nunggu sampai waktu aku bertunang nanti sebab sangat tasty lah. Rasa macam nak pakai je buat gi opis tu.
Kalau tak sabar sangat, untuk hantaran nanti terpaksa la orang itu carik kasut lain untuk aku.

hiks.

Hubby's Hantaran

Kelmarin, aku dengan Kak Lin jalan-jalan di Jaqueline Bridal House di Masai, and we found this :




Lawakan!

Cadangnya mau membeli-belah bakul sajer. Last-last benda lain pulak yang dapat.

That flower is only RM10.70 per piece after less.
I bought 7 pieces.

And that bakul is only RM8.10 after less.
Sangat murah, kan.

Going to use this to make hubby's hantaran.

1- Coklat
2- Cheese Cake
3- Baju Nikah
4- Tafsir Al-Quran & Sejadah
5- Tuala & NuSkin set
6- Cincin & Duit RM100.00
7- Handbag & Kasut
8- Sireh Junjung

Aritu masa pergi ke Ayer Hitam dah terbeli silver ornaments sebab our initial plan is to use this theme : red-silver for my side and golden-brown for his side.

Menyesal pulak tak rancang awal-awal sebelum pergi kedai.
Nak tak nak lepas ni terpaksa la cari bunga yang boleh combine dengan warna silver untuk hantaran aku nanti.

I want red because my engagement dress is going to be red in color.
Real red.
chilli-chilli red.

Tapi yang ini terjumpa warna yang sangat menepati citarasa plak.
Actually, it's not really purple.
If u look carefully, it's more to golden color.
I'm not very good at taking pictures so u might say that it's not very pretty.
Tunggu la nanti bila siap yek.

I plan to make hubby's hantaran using my own hand tau.
Hopefully menjadi la.
My hantaran plak nak tempah kat kawan my mum.
Time Angah tunang aritu pun dia yang buatkan.
Memang sangat lawalah.

hum hum.

Baju Nikah

hem hem.
already bought our baju nikah.
for me and for him.
and he paid for both.

dark-golden-brownish-bronze.

yang terbayang kat kepala otak aku sejak dulu, baju nikah mesti la kaler merah bata.
or soft reddish.
masa pegi kat Nagoya, dia sukakan satu baju yg merah ittew.
tapi takkan nak nikah pakai warna merah menyala gitu kan.

then, pegi ke Jakel, Euro Moda, and Angsana.
pun tak jumpa yang aku suka.
setelah berbelas kedai kitorang masuk, terjumpa kaler ineh yang sangatlah menepati citarasa.

mula-mula takut tak sesuai dengan kulit aku yg gelap nih.
tapi... what the heck!
lantak la kan.
lawa jek aku pakai.
hiks.

tapi memang sangat lawalah!
berterabur dengan manik-manik yang merelips.
masa kat kedai tadi nampak macam simple-simple sajer.
bila dah sampai rumah nampak terover vouge macam baju sanding la pulak.
tapi dia kata, takpelah. boleh buat baju bertandang. nanti kalo jumpa yg cyg suka kita beli lainlah.

hem hem.
serius aku teruja.
balik rumah, letak baju atas meja sebelah katil, tiba-tiba datang rasa excited.

wahaha.

i'm excited!
**macam tak percaya u!
