Items that you MUST bring to the Registry of Marriage:
1. Your Wife or Husband
2. Photographer
3. Witnesses
4. Identity cards of wedding couple and witnesses

My cousin will be going for her ROM (Registry of Marriage) later and I will be attending this very important function!!!

She has always been my adorable younger sister even though she is just my cousin.

She just personally called over the phone to invite us to her ROM although she had invited us earlier. Hmmm…this is called courtesy and respect as she explained she had to do it because she is more junior than us. 😀

I will be helping her to take photographs as she is going more for budget-wedding. So, as relatives, we are trying to help her in anyway we can, to help her reduce costs. >.< Okie....I got to prepare my camera, my batteries and my compact flash card. Will post some of her pretty photos later! >.<

One more week left and it seems like I still have tons of things to do:

1) Last Saturday, I have met up with my brothers and planned a draft for our wedding schedule…did I say draft? yes, I have edited it for about 10 times in these past two days. I will be editing it again.

2) next, I have more or less planned the guests sitting arrangement? “What? who can’t sit with who?…who MUST sit with who?…” I have been hearing remarks from my mum and it seems like I’m trying to plan my time-table in University to fit my schedule.

There are still some guests who have yet replied me if they are attending. For Singaporean, it is no “pai-seh” (not embarrasing) to check with guests if they are coming or not. However, according to Hong Kong custom, my future mother-in-law had a difficulty asking her guests. This led to our difficulty of checking who is coming.

(Remember rule number ONE !? If you want a good life as future son-in-law, NEVER confront your mother-in-law. Grooms, remember this!)

3) My fiancee is very nice to help choose the wedding songs from the song lists supplied by the hotel. She is also trying to come up with the wedding videos, montages and slide shows.
