All these planning didn't start with him proposing and me saying 'I do'. Instead we were being talked into signing the pre-wedding photography package with a huge discount given in the name of being a half-Taiwanese. Perks. Turns out, he was as excited as I am, while being $500 down for the month. So, before I was formally known as 'the girlfriend', I am now officially the fiancé, the bride-to-be.
I am definitely amazed by what I was able to research and confirm in just half a month's time. How can anyone contain that much excitement and happiness? It's impossible.
Wait a minute, right, checklist.
I've already bought 2 wedding magazine within the first week.
Informed parents of both sides.
Rings, chosen. Engraving details, discussed and confirmed too.

Notify and confirmed bestman, maid of honor and bridesmaid. I get three and he gets one; maybe another brother as the driver.
Setting
the date and get it 'authorized' by my shifu. Apparently it turns out
to be quite an auspicious date plus it's definitely one nice number for a
date to be permanently printed on my marriage certificate.
Called and emailed the whole world, to get packages, menu, services and rates.
Research for wedding gowns. Contacted designers for MTM gowns.
Set up meetings to drop by the various hotels aka venue search.

Went
to Raffles Hotel on Monday but we left with disappointment. Plus,
impromptu trip to Hotel Fort Canning. Nice, we were already putting it
into our 'consider list'.
Venue search just before the meet up. Yes, we are still
on Monday this week. After urging the HTB to meet up with Mr L, to
discuss and to engage him as our wedding emcee. Turns out he gave us
quite a bit of tips and pointers, what to look out for and what's not. Anyways, the meeting was at Jewel Box, it's located at
Mount Faber if you were wondering, and could you believe it's my
virgin trip up here?! L suggested that Jewel Box would be a nice place
with an awesome view to hold the event. You know what?! He's right. We
manage to get someone, that'll be Alexis, from the sales team, to introduce us their packages and also to show us around the place.
Finally, we found the perfect venue for our wedding.
