Win & Van's Big Day P1

** special thanks to Van for all the professional-taken pictures :)

The wedding where Leecher & me were on opposite camp - him being part of the brother gang and me, with the sisters gang! Well, the AF guys thought that they gained the upper hand in planting me as the mole in the sister gang, but where got so easy one? Of cuz must tekan the groom!

The sisters meet-up @ Number 5. Van was still so protective of Win and it took us a lot of coaxing before she finally revealed what Win was afraid of. Haa, too bad, I won't 手下留情 just cuz you're my 大哥.

The day started with the sisters meeting up 1 hr earlier to prepare for gate crashing. When Leecher dropped me off @ Van's place, he still whatsapp to the group and said "Mole planted". Win even got Leecher to test water and see if I'll leak out the plan or not, so scheming! haha, but my 口风 is so tight that Leecher gave up.

Avocado for the groom (one of his weak points), as part of the 酸甜苦辣 routine. We wanted to mix this with vinegar, but decided to abandon the plan, cuz bride's mummy didn't want to start off the way with anything bitter. So, we made the groom eat direct from the fruit instead.

We prepared tomatoes and peppermint ice cream for Win's desserts - see, the sisters are so nice! After preparing for the food items, we went to check out the bride :)

Pictures of the lovely couple decorating the wall.

Love her gown, with the sweetheart neckline and blings.

Van almost done with her hair and make up.

Drawing our foot on paper for the groom to guess which matches that of the bride.

Bridesmaid corsages :)

All set and ready to tekan the brothers ...

On the other hand, Leecher reported to the brother's camp ...

The geeky brothers, all had props while Leecher put on his own specs, haha!

Brothers getting restless - the only clue that I provided was to them was to come on an empty stomach.

Chuanyew sent a teaser to our whatsapp group, he was in charge of the flowers for the day.

Finally, the gang of brothers arrived! Wa, machiam like 山寨 mafia version.

Helping each other to tidy their clothes.

Gang of brothers ready to conquer the gatecrashing!

The brothers had to sing and dance to Jay's chou's song 霍元甲 as part of the gatecrashing item.

I seriously didn't know that they were that 鸡手鸭脚.

Special request by Van for Win to sing 就是愛你, so sweet! The guys made damn good back-up singers and we had a sing-along session with him as well :)

Nice convertible!

Off we went for picture taking.

Finding the right spot

Guess our location?

We went up and down the escalator numerous times to capture these pictures.

Heehee, guess the couple must have felt pretty awkward to kiss passionately in front of so many on-lookers.

Managed to guess our location yet? We went to the airport for picture-taking, as the wedding venue was at the airport :)

Took these pics when the brothers went to freshen up & powder their noses. Where got let the bride & company wait one? Aiyoh!

Geeky bro & sis! By default, we always ended up pairing with each other, cuz the other brothers don't dare to touch me, haha!

The girls pushed the guys forward after taking this picture, and they almost fell onto the ground, haha! Well, it was the photographers who signaled to us hor, we won't think of such evil plot.

Brother gang

with the mole! haha, but I think they had it easy during gate-crashing.

To be continued with P2 for the later part of the day tomorrow :)

Shirts

When I told Leecher that I ironed extra 10 shirts for him to choose while I'm away, he simply said

Win & Van's Big Day - Briefing

Just landed in LDN and the weather was still bearable. Will be in LDN for a week of conference, meeting people from other offices and putting a face to those names that I've seen frequently on emails and over phone calls. The conference will start tomorrow and I'm kinda excited :) Oh yes, speaking of excitement, I've finally sorted out the pictures for Win & Van's big day, so here we embark on their wedding journey!

**************

After the fabulous stag night party, it was time to sit down and listen to the briefing for the actual day. Win wanted to meet us back @ NTU, so most of us drove across the country, heading back to NTU campus.

The early birds!

The cars beginning to arrive one by one

The bride & groom arrived :)

Group (leg) pic before we set off :)

The familiar sight - it had been quite a long time since we graduated.

Leecher thought he was some triad's 老大

The familiar slope that lead us to Canteen B

Canteen B went through a makeover and we couldn't recognise the place. I remembered the chairs used to be green, but it had changed to red. More stalls have appeared, like this fruit juice station.

Venturing to the new school where ex-hall 3 used to be.

School of Physics & Math.

While waiting for the guys to venture this new school.

Groom taking out his file, with duties allocation.

Step by step briefing.

All paying 100% attention to their roles and responsibilities for the actual day.

After briefing, headed to Boon Lay for nasi! Check out the long queue.

Who could resist a hearty meal of nasi and milo peng?

Stag Day

Coincidentally, Leecher had his stag day on the same day as my hen's night. Can't believe I'm blogging for his behalf cuz he's still very much in retirement (and not doing anything else apart from expanding his waist line, haha!). Anyway, the guys met up bright and early for a day trip to Batam :)

The guys went for 2 rounds of go-kart - 10 mins drive from Harris Batam. The tracks were so muddy that Leecher came back with his soiled T-shirt and I had difficulties getting rid of the stains.

Leecher told me the horror story of cabbies in Batam. The guys walked back to Harris, hoping to spot a cab - this particular driver wanted to charge each pax $25 for a ride from the go-kart to this dim-sum place (which they found out later was just a 10-mins ride from go-kart centre). Gosh, that's daylight robbery - that's $125 in cab fare. Can take you around Singapore island to-and-back 4 times lo. The guys didn't give in and walked further away and managed to grab a cab that charges $3 per pax. Wow, I didn't know that they charge by pax now!

The pro-family-gang who celebrated his stag day! I have no worries leaving Leecher in their hands, heehee!

Project Thursday - Confessions of a Shopaholic

One of my fave blogger has this project 365, where she take pictures of anything interesting that comes along her way. She has a special eye for details and great photography skills. While I'm contented with dent dent, I've begin exploring photography using my trusty iphone 4S, haha! With all the photography apps available, I've decided to come up with my own version of project 365 - which is Project Thursday, since Thursday is now the new Friday :)

Something close to the heart for the debut post! haha, Leecher will definitely agree, looking at the stuff that arrived at my mum's place whenever we head over for dinner, haha! Time to freeze the credit cards in a gigantic ice cube :p

Edit: Project Thursday is now known as PicPrints (from 1st June 2012 onwards)
