19/12/2009 - A Date To Remember!
Finally blogging about our special day! Haven't gotten the pictures from Alvin yet, will just make do with the not so professional ones taken by my Canon baby.
Even though I was feeling damn nervous and having tonnes of butterflies in my tummy the night before, I still slept like a pig cause I was too tired from work and all the last minute wedding preparations!
Headed over to Di Gio Bridal at 9am to do my makeup. And I'm so glad I managed to book Amanda as my MUA as recommended by most brides to be on Flowerpod. Really love the hairdo and makeup done my super gorgeous MUA!
And, the lovely hand bouquet from Di Gio as well!
Thankfully, the entire ceremony went smoothly with no major hiccups. A big thanks to all who helped us in one way or another!
And with the signing of the marriage certificate, Mrs Chia proclaimed us as husband and wife officially! Anyway, Ah Zhong has been appointed as Mrs Chia's PA!
We took the 5 hour ROM photography package with Alvin, and after the ceremony, we still had about 1.5 hours to spare. Alvin suggested going for an outdoor shoot, but pity the weather wasn't the least cooperative cause it was raining!Thankfully, the rain got smaller towards the end, and we managed to take a few pictures at Raffles Place area, though our first choice was Hort Park. That aside, the tail of my gown was utterly drenched and it was really a funny sight cause Mashimaro was bending down every now and then to squeeze out the excess water!
Anyway, the photoshoot was quite an experience cause even though it was a Saturday, Raffles Place was still pretty packed and quite alot of people were staring at us!
Headed back to our hotel room, complimentary from Grand Copthorne after the shoot! 4D number anybody?
The room was decent enough I guess. Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel holds special memories for Mashimaro and me cause we celebrated our 1st anniversary there as well! (:
That aside, the rest are all endless pictures of us, us and us! Please keep the 'x' button at the top right hand side of the screen if you wish to exit now.
I really, really love my gown from Di Gio, courtesy of Casey! Speaking of which, I haven't written my thank you card yet! Love the material, the purple sash but I love the crystals the most!
Some of my friends actually suggested to me to buy the gown and alter it into a short dress instead! But I still feel that it will be prettier as a long gown though!
Heading out for our early dinner at Ichiban boshi at Great World City cause I was super freaking hungry! Didn't really have time for lunch, plus I was too excited to eat anything!
Back to the hotel room after dinner and the cam-whoring continues!
Got a pleasant surprise when we switched the TV on for Guess 3. The screen flashed something along the line of 'Congratulations Mr & Mrs Lye Chai Yong!'
And I really had a hard time removing all the pins from my hair! Washed with conditioner, shampoo, then conditioner, then shampoo and finally conditioner again before I managed to get rid of all the hair spray.
Because we had our dinner too early, we got hungry again real soon. Decided to try out their room service and ordered some late night snacks. Thumbs up for the yummy bites! 
Had breakfast at Cafe Brio the next morning!
And that's all the pictures that I have from my cammie!
Accordingly to the counter on my blog, we've been happily married for 1 month and 1 week, and counting! There's so many stuff that I can say, but guess I can sum everything up with I love Mashimaro the mostest! (:
That aside, I've suffering from serious post Phuket withdrawal symptoms. Dragging my feet back to work after such a great getaway is really a pain! ): Shall try to collate the pictures and update my super laggy blog soon!
