Today marks THE day when we settled Darling’s wedding gowns! We have already chosen some gowns for our indoor and outdoor shoots but short of a “spectacular” Cheongsam to truly match our Grand Shanghai Theme…..until today!
Darling is the one making all the research for her gowns, browsing through hundreds and thousands of pictures on the internet, flipping through the online catalogue of Z wedding gowns, as well as catalogues of Dang Studio, Le Grand etc, in order to find her perfect gown. Well well well, 皇天不负有心人, Darling finally came across her perfect gown after months of research!
We signed with Z wedding about maybe 3-4 years ago? At that time, we were attracted to the gowns already. We were curious to find out more about Z wedding and their services after we signed the package so went on the Net and searched….to our horror, Z Wedding has many mixed reviews. They even banned 1 forum from listing a thread under their name coz of too many bad reviews! We were worried, Darling more worried….did we ganna cheated again? Regularly, Darling would pay the Z Wedding website a visit to view their latest gowns over the years. The gowns of subsequent years after we signed were not as impressive and Darling was having second thoughts about continuing with Z Wedding. Luckily somehow from late last year, Z Wedding gowns actually picked up standard and became beautiful again. And it picked up the standard at the right time coz we are in need of beautiful gowns for our wedding on 17 March 2012!
We have both indoor and outdoor shots, all done in a day. 3 outdoor locations and 2 indoor themes. We have 2 indoor gowns and 2 outdoor gowns. How can we take it lying down to have only 4 gowns? There’s 1 evening gown which Darling like but not available on our Actual Day for Darling to wear. Our coordinator Grace actually is kind enough to allow us to use that gown for our photoshoot only and also allowed us to choose ANOTHER evening gown for our Actual Day! We initially have a White Can-Can wedding gown as well as a pink evening gown for our outdoor shoot, and a White Can-Can wedding gown and a Victorian style green evening down with black lace for our indoor shoot.
Darling set eyes on a Le Grand Cheongsam a few days earlier and has been dying to try it on! So we fixed a meeting with Z Wedding today and got Darling into the Cheongsam and OH MY GOD!! It fits her almost perfectly! Almost like made to measure gown!
So we decided to pay s$1788 for the rental of the LeGrand Cheongsam for photoshoot and for actual day wear! Totally worth it, 简直一见钟情!
After some negotiation today, we managed to fix a more favorable arrangement. A total of 6 different gowns for Darling to wear!
—– Outdoor shoot —–
1 white wedding gown
1 pink Chiffon material evening gown
1 Cheong Sam from LeGrand (special request to bring for outdoor shoot)
1 Casual wear (Most likely our ROM gown)
—- Indoor Shoot —-
1 white wedding gown (also for actual day wear)
1 green with black lace evening gown
1 Cheong Sam from LeGrand (also for actual day wear)

1 Qun Kua for tea ceremony (to be rented)

The photoshoot is happening on the 6 Nov…hope everything goes well! I am choosing locations for our photoshoot in the meantime.

I love you Darling. XOXO
