Wedding date: 2006
Wedding Place: Wedding was at Santuario de San Antonio and Manila Peninsula Hotel, both at Makati City, Philippines

My dress: “I’ve always wanted to have my gown custom-made.  I wanted it to be unique and very specific to my tastes.  And besides, having the gown made in Manila would be more cost efficient than buying a designer wedding gown.  I also wanted my gown to be halter and to have lace.  The rest I left with the designer.  I was so pleased with the results!  The details are amazing… the embelished lace, the two-toned gown, the silk flowers at the back and the floral lace racerback that crawls up the neck.  I definitely felt most beautiful on my wedding day!”

My dress: “I have always wanted a wedding dress that is modest to reflect my Islamic faith but still elegant and beautiful. It’s common for Malaysian’s bride to have more than 1 wedding dress. The white dress is for an ‘akad’ ceremony, which is an important Islamic ceremony normally conducted by the father of the bride. The pink and lavender dress is for reception that was held at my parent’s home and also at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur. The lavender ‘kebaya songket’ dress is a rare colour as traditional ’songket’ normally comes in bright or rich colour. We were so happy to find the songket in this particular colour! ”

 My dress: “I was trying gowns almost every weekend. My task was to go to bridal salon to try on gowns.  I don’t know if that happens to every bride?  You have a feeling of “that’s it” or “no no” when you try it on. At the end I found the “that’s it” gown FINALLY.  My bear was being very patient with me trying on gowns.  I have to give him a big Beari Hug for this!  Even I was kinda frustrated throughout the whole process.  Both my bear and I thought this was the one.  However, I made several requests to change some of the details to my gown.  I changed the material of this gown to Ivory Satin instead of Organza and you will see the crystal beads on the satin instead.  I also ordered crystals brooches as well to put on to my gown to replace the roses instead.  I wanted my gown with this bling bling sparkling effect!  It  took approximately 3-6 months of wait plus the customization.”
