♥ Love is
patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7(NIV)

Busy as a bee but tasting some honey!
Now, what is the honey that we are tasting then! Well.. during this one month that we have been missing in action (Apologies for our hiatus!), we have:
1.) Signed a bridal package :D
After our last post, we visited the third bridal boutique on my list, Olive Suite at Orchard Delphi. Once again, we were blessed with ultra friendly and helpful ladies during the gown trying. It is a beautiful little shop which designs their own bridal gowns and they are famed for designing MTM (Made To Measure) gowns. So for brides who have an idea of their dream dress, do check out Olive Suite (: I tried on about 5 gowns in a variety of styles. Really likes the colours that their gowns come in, especially the eggshell pink, such a sweet and delicate colour. However, the cut of their gowns somehow do not really suit me. Also, despite me liking details from the different gowns I tried, there is not one gown which has everything I like. Lenard's expression when I tried on the gowns also made it clear that this is not the shop for me.
So! I brought Lenard back to Dang, which he had missed the first time I went. After seeing the gowns on me and the package that they offer, it was clear that Dang is the one that we are going for (: Other then having a bridal gown and an evening gown for rental, I will get to have a tea dress that is MTM and Lenard will have his MTM suit. Oh, did I mention we will get to keep our MTM dress and suit? WHEE! (: So far, I have met Dang (the owner) and Yu Han to discuss the design of my tea dress. Can't wait to go down with Lenard to have his measurements taken for his suit too! Going to the bridal boutique just gives me a tingle of excitement! (:
2.) Confirmed our photographer and videographer!
One fine day, Lenard sent me a link to view a facebook page. Bobby Kiran. It was the first photographer that we checked out (See Bobby's facebook here!) and the stories that he had told through his photographs had been lingering in our minds ever since. After meeting Bobby to discuss our vision for our wedding photographs, we felt that Bobby's style of photography really matched what we are looking for. We found our photographer (:
From the list of videographers that Bobby had kindly recommended, we soon found our videographer too! The Wedding Paparazzi was screaming at us right from the moment we saw their first video. And when you find yourself watching another video and another video and ANOTHER video and MORE... it was crystal clear that we want them for their versatility, personal touch and tinge of humour while capturing couples on their big day! Sealed Deal! :D
(By the way, Ami has an uber adorable resident office cat, Duke Orange. Show some love here! Meow!)
3.)FOUND OUR HOUSE!!! Hallelujah!
Yes! WE FOUND OUR NEST! (: -dances around in joy-. After about 2 months of house-hunting, God has finally blessed us with the right house that fulfills all the conditions that we can ask for! Now, we are waiting for our appointments with HDB and we seriously cannot wait to start our renovation. Been looking through numerous photographs on houzz.com and there are just so many ideas exploding in our brains (: it's really a good kind of explosion.
And the above is the sweet, sweet honey that we busy bees have been tasting amidst the busy-ness (: and we are just so thankful for the love and blessings that God has showered on us. Not just in the favours that He has granted us as we searched for the various vendors for our wedding, but also in how He draws us closer to Him and to each other during times of stress and disagreement. It is just amazing that He is always the solution to our problems and it is really through these hiccups that Lenard and I have grown to understand each others' emotions and thoughts better.
And just one sneak peak of my gown from Dang:
The countdown continues! (:
