The Celebration of Love

Hello all :) deepest pologies for neglecting this page for a bit.. too busy trying to orientate myself back into life. to those who still bother checking this page out, thank you! this post is definitely worth waiting for, so brace yourself for lots of visuals! :)

really thankful that #kenjade121212 went smoothly. amidst all the last minute changes and stress over time, it was near perfect. really gotta thank our guests who flew in from Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan, UK, Australia, and USA. hopefully i hadn't missed anyone out. also wanna extend my gratitude to friends, whether or not you know the couple personally, who sent in your well-wishes and blessings. really means a lot to the couple, my sis and (now) brother-in-law. it also gave me a sense of encouragement to really persevere throughout. big thank you and love y'all deep deep!

to those who are expecting the wedding photos, i'm sorry as they will not be ready so soon. we're still waiting for the photos from the official photographer, so do be patient and continue to stay excited!

enough of verbal diarrhea, here are the pretty photos for today! :D

day started early for the bidal shower. in fact, something cropped up at work, so i had to accompany jie to settle some stuff before we could proceed with our plans.

i planned the itinerary and jie had no clue about anything :)

Photobucket
first stop: brunch @ Chillax Cafe. both of us loveeeeeeee brunch. so brought jie here for brunch + quiet HTHT.

Photobucket
here's jie touched to tears by the letter i wrote her.

to those who doesn't know, jie is not the emotional type at all. unlike me, who cries at every little thing (happy/sad/angry/touched/etc), jie is super happy-go-lucky, so it isn't a commonsight to see her tear.

and if you haven't already realised, jie and i are tight, really tight. we talk to each other about every thing in the world. school, work, friends, parents, siblings, boyfriends, boyfriend's family, boyfriend's friends, ex-boyfriends, life, personal matters, private matters, and the list can go on and on. that's how close we are.

after brunch, we had hair wash + massage. however, it was really disappointing it actually took me by shock. never expeced a reputable salon to provide such service :(

Photobucket
after which, we caught Twilight in the platinum suite! we aren't actually diehard twilight fans, but let's just say we love the movie! ^^

after the movie was the highlight of the day! brought jie to her ultimate surprise!

then while waiting for the food, everyone started tweeting/ instagramming/ facebooking. everyone was super careful not to leak anything. thank you for being so cooperative! :D

Photobucket
one of the food for the night. okay the mains were all pretty normal. nothing fanciful to be honest.

Photobucket
the cafe is famous for their alcoholic cakes, which was really pretty awesome. even for a person like me who HATES alcohol and can't stand the taste/ smell of alcohol, i would say they did the cakes pretty well. if i were to return, i'll order the cakes!

Photobucket

Photobucket
games time!

okay not many photos of the games because (i) we were too busy playing / (ii) the photos cannot go public :S

Photobucket

Photobucket
thanks girls for making this such a success!

here are the highlights of the night is you're interested to have a peek of what we did! :D

after all the fun and laughter and shouting and screaming, we went back to the hotel room tired + shag + happy + smelly.

Photobucket

Photobucket

nothing much went on in the room because we were really tired. more friends came over, talked, ate, played and slept.

Photobucket

Photobucket
look at all the things we were carrying. checking-out is always the worst.
