Wedding preparations (Gatecrash dresscode)

Went hunting around for the polo-tees with customization at places such as Army market, Queenstown shopping centre, internet ordering and even JB! 

Finally managed to get a shop with reasonable pricing and have the kind of bright colors that we needed. There's a shop at JB that does customized printing but quoted us about the same price that we can get at Queenstown.

Placed a $50 deposit in the month of May with Queens Printing located at Queensway after a brief draft of what we need to be printed out and settled the polo-tees for brothers and sisters!

After meeting up with brothers and sisters, we managed to gather the sizes and returned to the shop beginning of this month with the exact sentence and word to be printed on each of polo-tees. It was albeit confusing as we need to ensure that the each word are printed with the right color. After that, it needs to be sticked on the right size of the polo-tee via 3 alternate color sequence. Eventually, the whole sentence must be completed word by word. 

Sounds confusing? I thought so too, but I'm sure the photos will ease your confusion!

I was quite worried that the colors and words might be mixed up, and after collecting it today, I was so glad that zero mistakes were found! Yeah!!! 

Bought the ties from TaoBao, watches from Bugis Village and topping it up with the badges that we bought previously, the attire for Brothers and Sisters are finally settled.

As you can see from the photo, the mess that was below the watches are a bunch of movie tickets that I am trying to sort our based on dates, and have it pasted on the photo frame that I bought from Ikea. This project has been delayed for a while and it's about time to start! 

Wedding preparations (Getting started - Gatecrash theme)

Many researches were done on the internet and reading through all sorts of wedding magazines. Few ideas came to mind with all sorts of themes such as beach related, single color defined, funny characters but all don't seem to fit. 

After shopping around and checking out lots of websites, we've decided that since it is an happy affair, we should use happy colors that are loud! 

As we have 10 brothers and sisters and after selecting Navy blue, Red, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Green, Light Blue, Purple and Pink, we're still short of 1 color! 

Cheerful colors 

Once the theme has been decided, things are easier to move on. 

Thought of looking for another color to meet 10 colors so that each person can take 1 color but after going through our 'to-buy' list, it's too difficult to find different colors for all the items -and it's better not to make life difficult for ourselves!

Finalized the theme for sisters and brothers for the gate crash with bright colors:

- Yellow (Groom)

- Green

- Orange

- Pink

As gate crashing is a physically challenged session, didn't want the brothers and sisters to perspire with their pretty gowns and formal wear so decided to do it casual with polo-tee and bermudas for the guys, and polo-tee and 3/4 jeans for the gals.
