Hunt for the Cake

Well. Michels Pateriser bailed out on us, so our cake plan has gone up in smoke!

Thankfully I found out now and not later! So off to find a cake shop.

So Far I've contacted the following:

Polka Cakes
Simmone Logue
Planet Cake

Casa Del Cakes
Faye Cahill

Steph - said he would as a work colleague about cake shops in Chatswood.

Thankfully we have a few months before the day to organize this!

Goodbye Miss Moonface!

Yep i had a closer look... I'm moving into the ovals!!!

Woohoo! I'm not a round face anymore!!!

Okay given the hairdresser did something fricking AMAZING to my hair. I have to say this is one of the first photos of myself I havent had a fit over... Weddings so some strange things.

Status Report

  • I got my crystal drops which will add some sparkle to the ever evolving Table CP…
  • I got my favor boxes again…
  • I bought spiky bamboo for the table cp. These will add strength and height and Japan City have a deal, buy one get one free! Must go and get more!
  • Coin Batteries are posted today
  • Ive lost more weight, I can circle my wrists now! Very strange!
  • Cake is back to the drawing board. Michels Patissere Cake wholesaler won't do the cake I want. So either get a crap cake or pay for a nice cake. Looking at a few suppliers
  • Found another makeup person. Will ask them what they think of Eva and makeup.
  • Emailed the post ceremony pub to book an area for guests to get pissed.
  • Mums hotel is booked for the week prior to the wedding
  • Steph's pars have organized their accommodation! So cool!

Lesson Learnt

Girls, if you have a chinky wedding, dont send your invites out in white envelopes. Any other colour is cool, but white is no go.

I was stuck as our invites were a unique size and I could only source white or bright mustard yellow envelopes.

Thank god mum has good humor and is searching for stickers/stamps in red to colour up the invite. If the worse comes, she'll stick them in red organza bags or wrap the invite in red wrapping paper..

Added: Apparently White envelopes and black text is what chinese use to give Death Money. When a person dies, the family is given "Bak Gum", another pocket of money that the family can use to pay for the funeral expenses.

Airfares

This is kinda freaking me out, but most of the Tassie guests have booked their plane tickets!!!!

Its closer than I think!

Wedding Bento

I've got this idea to make wedding bentos for the bridal party and the photographers!

What could i put in them?

I want to make them small and easy to eat. so im thinking little nigiri rolls. lots of hearts and red and pink.

and it needs to be tasty too! Food plans to come!

Hey Mr Postman

After a few nights of frentic writing, and help from kathleen, The invites are ready to be sent! So people please keep your eyes out for Mr Postman.

Then again. Maybe one should warn the Postman...

Honeymoon Desitination

Err... in light of the current political turmoil. Maybe Bangkok would not be a good place to relax after the wedding.

But it might not be as bad as it seems, certianly the Govt doesn't think so...
