PART IIIAre you ready for the third part of wedding planning? If you haven't read my 2 previous <a href="http://bethkissbang.blogspot.sg/2015/12/planning-wedding-in-bali.html"><span style="color: red;">BlogPost</span></a>, click on blogpost to read the rest. For readers who have read it, we are going to continue with the next chapter. Food & Beverage!<br />
<br />
I basically found the best Balinese buffet style for the wedding day. My husband is european and he has many friends and family who flew all the way to the beautiful island of god. Because of that, we decided to do something different. I guess picking the right caterer is all in your hand. Do you have fancier taste e.g. set menu dining european style. We had attended a wedding where by the bride and groom preferred a set menu european style dining where waiters/waitresses served 3 dishes starting from a starter to dessert. Usually caterers have choices for you to choose from whether its 3, 4 or 5 dishes to serve, everything depending on your budget. They are a little cheaper than Balinese buffet style because of the portion.<br />
<br />
We often thought the term 'buffet' will probably cost a lot cheaper than a fine serving set menu. Well, truth be told, we were both wrong! But come to think of it, it was worth the price. It was a pleasant moment dealing with <a href="http://korirestaurant.co.id/experiance.php"><span style="color: red;">KORI</span></a> Catering. They are so professional and friendly to work with. We met them at their restaurant as per schedule and we did food tasting without the horrendous wedding planner we fired. We had learnt that food tasting alone with your partner and Kori crew actually gave more freedom compared to having a planner around because you get to give your opinion to change some dishes to your caterer upfront! You can also negotiate in a friendly manner with them (that's what we did). We really loved their professional manners!<br />
<br />
We tasted so many food. Price we paid for food tasting was about Rp. 960.000* (SGD96) for 2 pax excluded canapes tasting. We made some changes with our menu and Kori was very easy and told us we could change and with the changes we made, prices were reduced too because we took out some menu we didn't like. There were so much food we couldn't really finish them all. But we enjoyed the time seeing them.<br />
<br />
On the wedding day, we finally served:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>4 types of canapes (Balinese/Western style) -Lumpia (Vegetables Spring Rolls), Cheese tomato with pesto, Bruschetta Avocado and Tomato Salsa and Lemper Ayam (Sticky rice stuffed with shredded chicken). </li>
<li>Soto Ayam Soup (Indonesian Soup with shredded chicken)</li>
<li>Carving station: Babi Guling (Roasted Suckling Pig), Ayam Betutu (Balinese style chicken with special sauce), Nasi Kuning (Yellow rice with coconut milk), White rice and Sambal</li>
<li>Stir fried vegetables, Potato and Cauliflower curry</li>
<li>Dessert: Apple Crumble and Sticky Toffee Date Pudding served warm butterscotch sauce</li>
<li>Coffee and Tea </li>
</ul>
<br />
That was a lot of food and guests did not actually finish everything. We had so many left overs and the saddest part was that caterer did not ask if we wanted to keep the food as we were staying longer in the villa. So before we know it, everything was cleared. So much meat to finish. With all the menu we ordered, we paid approximately Rp. 600.000* per head. You could easily spend a good USD40* for a 3 course meal. But I recommend to have a try at kori even just for a nice lunch and dinner. Their place is in kuta, it is easy to find (small alley) and the place is really balinese style. A peaceful restaurant.<br />
<br />
The most expensive I'd say would be the beverage. We only took the non alcoholic beverage with them because we brought our own bottle from another seller. They were not so keen to do such a service but they finally gave us the best quotation. Prices ranging from Rp.250,000 and above (per head).<br />
<br />
I don't know how else I could praise Kori but we are now so thankful that you made our wedding day a memorable one. Thank you for dropping by to see me before you leave Fheny. You have been very helpful since day one and always reassuring me that there's nothing to worry in regards of the FIRED planner. I was worried but because of many other vendors reassured me, I finally had the best day of my life.<br />

**Sorry, I do not have photos of the catering side because I guess our photographers were too focused on the bride, groom and guests instead of whats on the plate haha. But here is a sweet sweet wedding photo to remember by! I hope you enjoy reading this chapter and I'll be back soon!<br />

PART IISo, how far along are you from planning a wedding? Having trouble looking for the right vendors? Don't worry because I have everything you need (not exaggerating) to know from the most important to the least. When a planner tells you "All you need is TRUST". but as long as you have that "GLITCH" inside you, don't let what they tell you about "trust" be the judge in your mind. Follow your heart and listen to yourself.<br />
<br />
From the previous <span style="color: white;"><a href="http://bethkissbang.blogspot.sg/2015/12/planning-wedding-in-bali.html"><span style="background-color: #674ea7; color: white;">Blogpost</span></a> </span>I made, I talked about how you should start and slowly find your own vendors. I also listed the vendors I used for my wedding back in the 19th of September 2015. I hope those lists will help you (somehow) to make the right choices. If you find that your planner is making you wait too long for one answer, tell them that you couldn't be waiting all the time. Planner will always give you the excuses they can create at any time e.g Busy with clients, had a meeting, big night for client wedding preparation, you name it. We are living in the new era where you have your cellphone by your side 24/7 (don't lie now because I'm sure you sleep with it too). Sometimes it is just funny how they can give any excuses. They could have just replied and said they will get back to us soonest but they left us hanging. Anyways, if you are worried about that, it is best to get your own vendors because that way, you get quotations quicker than some planners. Basically that's how I did it. Fuss free and quick response from vendors. Quicker than a lightning bolt!<br />
<br />
I know that there are TOO MANY vendors to choose from, so how did I get them?<br />
<br />
- I took all the time I had at home. My husband would pat my shoulder and said "Well done". I did a lot of research and compare prices from all vendors. If you didn't mind a little more work, I'm sure you can do exactly the same. To hire a full time wedding planner (from day 1 til day end), it will cost you more but if you have the "Mula$" and that you have no time to do the things I did, I suggest you to just flow the mula! Back to the question, before picking the one, I also see how quick they responded to my emails. They were mostly QUICK and in the end, it all depends on how they do the quotations and charts. You need a clear chart that indicated e.g 1 boutonnière for Rp. 20,000. You definitely do not want a vendor that stated e.g 1 boutonnière from Rp. 20,000*. With that said, bill will comes out different than your calculation you had in mind.<br />
<br />
- Don't be afraid of asking for prices because that's all we need you know!<br />
<br />
I found many Florist in Bali. Too many to be exact but just because you do not have many updates on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/baliweddingflorence/" style="background-color: #674ea7;"><span style="color: white;">Instagram</span></a> that doesn't mean you are not a reputable vendor. Communication with vendors is key! If you felt right after meeting with the vendors, you will know what to do next.<br />
<br />
Upon meeting with Susy from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/baliweddingflorence/" style="background-color: #674ea7;"><span style="color: white;">Bali Wedding Florence</span></a>, she was a pleasant lady to work with. Very helpful and she gave me ideas with the wedding set up e.g where the altar, food, dance floor will be even though it wasn't her job to tell me in the first place but it was nice to have the vision before. (FYI, my FIRED planner did not even give me any vision about it).<br />
<br />
Though there was a little glitch with the flower arrangement, I was happy because the wedding was beautiful. I requested a royal/navy blue but it turned out to be a light blue. Far from what I'd expect on that day but I guess if the light catches the flower in every angle and it's still beautiful, I shouldn't be worried about whether or not its royal blue, navy blue or light blue.<br />
<br />
We had roughly 60 guests and every guests had a cone of flower petals to shower us when we walked the aisle. It was such a beautiful moment! We had a beautiful and simple pergola for the ceremony, petals on the ground aisle, tiffany chairs, jars of flowers, white lanterns, candles around the villa, candles floating on the pool, corsages, boutonnières, hand bouquets for bridesmaids and bride. Flowers I pick for the evening was very simple, roses, hydrangea, baby's breath, carnation and tuberose. With those, we spent approx. Rp. 26million (SGD2600)*. I think we had the best deal with whatever we had that evening. If you could find lower price than we did, I salute your hard work ;)<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy reading and also I wish for your hard work to look for the right vendor :)<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">I've finally return from my trip in Australia. I have to say I LOVE AUSTRALIA! Anyways, let's get back to wedding talk. Since there are many couples out there planning to have a wedding in Bali, I'd be honored to share with you my experiences with the vendors I picked. Don't sweat because they are all reputable and guaranteed the best service. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you are planning to have a wedding in Bali, you need to bear in mind that Wedding in Bali is rather expensive. It is either you are super loaded or you are the type who would prefer an intimate wedding gathered with only close friends and family. With this post, I'll drop a rough idea about the cost you will have to pay. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">It is never too late to plan your own wedding and have only the wedding planner to help you 3 months prior to your big day. If you have the time of your life to be doing it (planning) then do it! I did my part, It wasn't easy but you learn so much from it. If you are planning to have someone help you from beginning to the end, you will need to expect accepting some vendors recommended by your wedding planner. And because I 'Fired' wedding planner (If you haven't read my previous post, do refer <a href="http://bethkissbang.blogspot.sg/2015/10/more-on-bali-wedding-butler-with-emails.html"><b><span style="color: red;">HERE</span></b></a> and <a href="http://bethkissbang.blogspot.sg/2015/10/worst-wedding-planner-in-bali-with-more.html"><b><span style="color: red;">HERE</span></b></a>) in the end I got the wedding I dreamt of having, WITHOUT HER.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you are planning to hire 'Wedding planner on the day only', they will help you build your run down. All you need to do for yourself is to meet up and talk to your vendors of your choice. Make sure they are legit and as soon as you paid deposit, jot them down in your organizer and make a list. So it will be easier for you to send them all together to your Wedding planner. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">My wedding went smoothly thanks to all the vendors who worked very professionally with me. Conversation with them were very pleasant and easy. The best vendor was my photographer, Pande Kadek Heryana and crew. They were young and talented people. Their rate aren't as expensive as others and they provide you a stunning and memorable photos. Check them out </span><a href="http://www.apelphotography.com/" style="font-family: times, 'times new roman', serif;"><span style="color: red;">HERE</span></a><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">! Since we took all package with them, we received a book of about 100 pages of our photo printed. It is beautiful and also it came with USB and CD for the other photos and also videos. Be ready to spend from *USD3500 (Pre-wedding, Wedding and Videography). Price changes every year so drop by if you want to get the new rate. He's a nice guy and super friendly!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Kiki, Our wedding planner is young and ambitious. As soon as I fired my old planner, I started the conversation very quickly with kiki as we didn't have much time left. Kiki and her crew were very good. Click <a href="http://balidreamday.com/wedding-services/wedding-planning/"><span style="color: red;"><b>HERE</b></span></a> for the rate! If you wanted a rehearsal (a day before the wedding), there's an extra charges of *Rp. 1million (approx. SGD100). It is optional for you! Every wedding needs a blessing ceremony, bear in mind it would be an additional *Rp. 3million (approx. SGD300). My husband and I were very happy with the priest. He is good and very fluent with english. If you are interested, please refer to Kiki about it. Kiki's coordination fee cost *Rp. 9million (approx. SGD900). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">There are 6 more vendors left to talk about. Wait for the next post if you are interested to have your wedding in Bali. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop me a message :) </span><br />

Especially everything was recorded beautifully by my talented photographer from Nusa Penida, Pande Kadek Heryana. I am so happy that I made the right choice. I was given many options but my heart set to just one and only one. There were many others that replied to my email but it wasn't as relax and friendly as Pande aka Apel. He's a very young and carefree photographer along with his crew. They are all young and talented!<br />
<br />
He recently posted up our wedding video on youtube. And because I love his work so much, I would like to share it to you readers. I HIGHLY recommended ApelPhotography to anybody who's planning for a wedding in bali soon. You can check his website <a href="http://www.apelphotography.com/"><b style="background-color: #c27ba0;">HERE</b></a> and simply write to him. He will get back to you as soon as possible. He's unlike other vendors, if you text him, he wouldn't ask you to not text him or that it's for urgent use. He will entertain you with any answers you need from him.<br />
<br />
I'll also be continuing to share my vendors experiences and help readers and brides/grooms to make the right choice in picking your right vendors. Wait for the next post ;) But for now, let's check ApelPhotography's work, Shall me?<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A couple of weeks ago I made a big change to my look as soon as the wedding was over. My hair was pretty damaged from all the coloring and bleaching due to the prewedding photoshoot and wedding itself. It was very hard to get it right because I had previously colored my hair jet black. You can imagine what I had gone through in order to get even a tiny bit of color. It was simply impossible to get it. I had to go through many process to get a touch of brown. Bleached at least 3 times and god knows how many layers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My hair wasn't THAT long but they are thick. So it kinda made me feel tired to carry it around everyday. Needless to say, to wash it and to see how much hair were dropped and drained by the water. It was rough especially (if you spotted) the inner corner of my hair. They were slightly blonde. It was supposed to be lavender but due to the rapid wash, the color came off.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
SO...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are tons of hair salon in Singapore. They are everywhere in Far East but because I had a couple of hair cuts done there, I wasn't amazed by the result. I had no idea why but I felt the choices at Far East were just too overrated. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I headed down to Robertson walk to check out Trimmings. I initially wanted the Creative Director to do the cut because I thought if I needed to cut ALOT, I might as well get the best out of the salon. But sadly, the creative director only works on Tuesday and Saturday when I needed to go on Monday. All I needed to do was to whatsapp them to make the booking. It was quick and easy! I was offered to go with the Senior Stylist Benson. He's a modern looking guy with (if I could remember) colored blond/plat hair. It took him quite a while to finish the cut. It is not a complaint, in fact I'd prefer someone to spend a bit more time with my hair and REALLY cut the hair. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
His rate cost me SGD70 and it was all worth it. I'm already planning to go down again for a color for my trip next month. If you are planning to have a hair cut and wonder where you might want to go? Just try out Trimmings. You can easily find them via Google. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
GOOD LUCK!</div>

"There are more to the story"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That was what I received from a member from Tripadvisor</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To cut things short, I've even more proofs of our conversation via Whatsapp</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We used to exchange messages via Whatsapp</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There was no issue at all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She never once told us (from the beginning) that we HAVE to email her in regards of the wedding.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
UNTIL she decided to ditch us</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After she received her USD1200 deposit</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She clearly had no respects towards us</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just by reading her messages, it got us so deep!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She tried to be all professional but her messages usually are super long and worst, NO SOLUTIONS!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All talks but no works done! get it?</div>

BALI WEDDING BUTLER IS THE WORST WEDDING PLANNER IN BALI!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was shameful of you to ask PEOPLE on tripadvisor to write good things about you</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You have no shame to do such a thing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You don't have to act all active in tripadvisor because you were never there</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
No shame!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. The last message we received from her before we contacted her back in March was that clearly she mentioned that she "PROMISE" to send the update on catering vendor. That message was sent somewhere in November 2014. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. We decided to message her after she disappeared for 4 months without any news. Even if you had no updates, as a WP you need to come back to your clients to tell them what's going on. Instead of leaving them aside (note: it was 5 and a half months prior to our wedding). Her reply was shocking! She was asking if we were ready for the arrangement!?!?!?!?</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. We clearly had nothing else to say... So, if we hadn't send her any emails, she will never ever get back to us??? Speechless with her services!</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. It is funny which kind of vendors willing to make clients WAIT for their new rate. It was already MARCH 2015! Why the hell did she say she's still waiting for the new rate since NOVEMBER til MARCH with no NEWS UPDATE??? We found it really odd! Call me naive but If you guys are in our shoes, you would have been so pissed by this pathetic wedding planner from BALI WEDDING BUTLER! </div>

5. So do you all get what I've been saying? The only thing she wanted to DISCUSS were "CONFIRM" and "PAY". There were no discussion about negotiation. The fact that she thought we will ever gonna be using iPOD, that was just ridiculously low of her.</div>

6. She finally became rude by telling us not to message her via whatsapp. I guess everybody knows that everything is recorded when you exchange messages with time and date. We messaged each other since we started paying her so what's the big deal now? The reason why we left no choice but to text you because you took a long time to reply to us. To us, IT WAS AN URGENT DISCUSSION. What do you mean that you will have trouble holding phone and chat? Do you realised that you were handling clients situation and not "FRIEND CHAT"? We are not your friends! We got the procedure, we are just afraid you have no decency and no respects towards your clients. </div>

In the middle of their compliments on her, they would say "something is not right with this post". DUDE, tripadvisor members have rights to share their experiences and what benefit do i get to create a "not right" story? I'm not working for anybody! I'm strictly a client who was mistreated badly by her. Just because she is tickling mostly Caucasian, European and American + Australian, that doesn't she will be flawless. Every now and then, when you made a mistake especially mistreating your clients, you bound to get negative reviews.<br />
<br />
When you posted reviews on tripadvisor website and when you gave a ONE STAR review to hotel/restaurant/villa etc and other people gave a big fat FIVE STAR, do we call you a liar? do we call you out and say "something isn't right with his/her story because i had amazing time". NO! We are not forced to write our experiences. It is to show people that certain people can be very irresponsible and that they have to be extra careful. They might have had hundreds of client but that doesn't mean they are always perfect. You can always b*tch about your clients but if you are professional, you wouldn't abandoned your client right in the middle of the arrangement, especially after we paid deposit to her.<br />
<br />
Just because all of them had a beautiful ending with her, that doesn't mean my stories were fake. If you had a terrible moment with a Wedding Planner and exactly like how my partner and i went thru, you wished to share the experience so others will not be treated that way. I do not care if anybody WILL listen to my story but there are flaws with Bali Wedding Butler. And the flaws she made were very unpleasant and unprofessional.<br />
<br />
Because I couldn't share my conversation with her via tripadvisor, here are the screenshots (Sorry for the quality as i didn't know how to print screen via Mac but i finally found how to do it and there's a couple with clear view:<br />
<br />
1. Desyana from Bali Wedding Butler quoted that she had already emailed Kathryn the GM of Villa agent. but look at what Kathryn's reply to me...<br />

3. She started to be rude at the end. It was not done on purpose when my husband sent her the email that he had forgotten to sign his name. but we have our own individual email address so i think it is logic that if it was sent via my email, that would be me who was typing but if it was from his email, that would be him. There's no necessary question in regards of who sent the email. Maybe you should start to ask yourself why we complained in the first place.</div>

4. I simply asked her question regarding the band as i thought she would know better. With that said, her replied show basically she isn't as professional as she thought. She told me Villa has strict rules and that I'm not allowed to have music play until midnight or i'll have to pay etc. BUT... look at what she said in the email. I guess if we HIRED her BAND, we get to have the band til Midnight? and sometime 1pm? I think she meant to say 1am. but yea... from no midnight to 1am. How is it possible to have such an ignorant wedding planner? you have to book vendors from her in order to have her service? omg...<br />

I replied to her immediately because i couldn't stand the fact that she's lecturing me after everything i've done and not her. It was all my work and since no problem with the vendors regarding their 'reputable status' and she tried to make everything about her. She told me to do this and do that, contact band, contact decorator, ask them this and ask them that. What is she going to do then? Whats the use for us paying her coordination fee of USD1800? when other wedding planner charges half the price she quoted. With no more patience and hesitation, i replied her as the way she replied to me. I think every human has their limit of tolerance with the kind of people who took kindness for granted. In green are all her answers.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
First of all, I would like to share a big Thank You to Moses crew.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is pretty amazing to know that there is a talented bunch of young crew in Medan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was pretty unsure about their talent but boy, they are amazing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to admit I did some mistake 3 days before my big day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You had no idea how terrible I felt and apologetic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I realized while going through the invoice Moses sent me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I contacted Reffy (The leader of Moses Band) and he responded quickly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course, I'm sure with a shock of his life too!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've never met them in person so it was really hard to get to know the group.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All I could do at that time is to trust Reffy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He told me not to worry and that he would try his best to fix it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He's a very sincere and helpful young man.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The good news was that they were available on the big day BUT...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since they had to hire a grand piano, that came the problem.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The vendor they picked refused to rent it out unless he made penalty payment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remember telling him if he needed any help (money wise for penalty) just inform me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know I made that mistake so it is obviously my turn to help one another.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He tried in that little days to try negotiate with the piano vendor.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had so little hope that he could manage to negotiate BUT...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
VOILA....!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think he's a charming guy and probably well known in Medan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The vendor decided to give a good news to him and to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If I hadn't had him and crew, I had no idea how the night would go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Probably as screwed as you might have thought...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My wedding was very small.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not more than 250pax but It felt so exhausted but...!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remembered the MOSES so I made a quick turned (my head) to look at the band.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To see who was the one talking to me all these while.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I watched the singers (A young man and A young lady),</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I watched the Pianist...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think that were the only attractive area in the ballroom :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought It was impossible to make eye contact and MIME to the singers,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I diverted my vision to the Pianist,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as you might have guessed, Pianist is Reffy himself.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made the Miming with my lips saying "Reffy?"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While playing his grand piano, he looked and nodded.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the end of the wedding, I made a quick Hello to him and his brother.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are YOUNG, TALENTED ANDDDDDD GOOD LOOKING!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For those of you who are planning for a wedding in Medan,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And are looking for youngblood to play you some bubles, Check them out!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prices are reasonable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Again, Thank you for everything Reffy!</div>

As some of you might know, I've just had my wedding in beautiful bali. And because of the wedding held in bali, i waited for it to be over so i can tell you guys out there my worst experience with the specific wedding planner.</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

I found her on tripadvisor posted by someone. She is from Bali Wedding Butler and her full name is Sri Komang Desyana. You can actually find her on google search and linkedin. My husband and I have never met anyone like her. </div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

I will try to make the story as short as possible:</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">
She was very enthusiastic at first (before you paid her) and replied to us quickly as if she had nothing better to do. But because of her promptness, we picked her. We met up for a quick inspection of the villas and she brought us to villa anapuri and i decided to changed my wedding date from 19 sept to 26 sept (just for anapuri as it was full on 19th). we also initally liked villa arika but we preferred anapuri but we failed to negotiate for better price so we ended up with beautiful arika. (we missed arika)</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">
There was some misunderstanding as i wanted the wedding on the 19th sept at villa arika, she contacted my husband without my knowledge (thru whatsapp) and asked if 26th is ok for arika. Both were in the wrong as they did not mention it to me. 19th at arika was booked by others and i was not too happy (that's why i prefer email with CC). We almost lost the villa to other couple but luckily, they released the booking. (i found arika on my own without her help)</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

After paying her the sum of USD1200 (coordination fee for 80 pax + commitment fee (both 50%)), we proceeded with vendors. We tried to ask her to help negotiating with the vendors of her choice but she failed to deliver. She did not even try to ask for best price. She insisted us to make downpayment (50%) and negotiate later on. I think smart people will never do that :)</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

Because of her ignorance, we decided to move forward with our own vendors (reputable one of course). She promised to come back with another catering vendor but again, failed to do so. She disappeared for as long as 4 months from november 2014 til march 2015. My husband emailed her and she replied that caterer did not give new rate. It was already march, i guess every vendors want to make a dime!</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

Since she refused to work, we decided to give her the vendors we will be working with. She was "OK" with it. She wasn't happy because we did not pick any of her vendors (if she worked well, we will take some from her). She even said we have to take their "BAND" called AZIMUTH. but i guess like every other couple, they would check out the vendor mentioned to see if they are really as good as how she described. again, failed to see information about such band. That's when i found Soul Entertainment.</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

I still took her as an experienced WP (she mentioned couple of times that her clients always said her work is beyond expectations) and because of that, i was looking for an advise from her regarding DJ. she did not try to help me (that's a wedding planners' job). Instead, she said "You talk to the band, You have to talk to decorator.. you this and you that." She also mentioned that her crew and herself will leave the premises before 12am regardless of other vendors still in the compound. My heart sank.. I wanted to cry because it was 3 months away from our big day. by now you know how i felt. It was a nightmare.</div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

She used to scare us about other vendors outside her comfort zone. She is so negative about everything but herself. She mentioned other caterer uses cheap staff and that they will not deliver. But because i'm an indonesian myself, i was not scared. Everything is all about social media. We know good vendors from reviewers. </div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

She also threatened us by making a complaint with Bali Wedding Association. Little did she know, I know some people who had mentioned to me that she doesn't have good relation with the owner. </div>
<div style="color: #4a4a4a; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 0px;">

At the end, We know we HAD TO fire her. Before we do so, i contacted bali luxury villas (villa agent for arika) and talked to the General Manager Kathryn Whyte. She was very helpful and we finally fired desyana. With proper and respectable email, we sent her one last email to tell her we no longer needed her services. </div>

After all the complications, she still managed to pat herself in the back. Mentioned she intro us to Soul Entertainment when the one sh intro was AZIMUTH. It was funny really... The Wedding Planner Bali Wedding Butler was so bad we had to dismiss her. If we hadn't, i wonder what it would become. But because we fired her, we had the best wedding ever in Villa Arika. </div>

Just a little advise for couple out there who are planning for a wedding, and if you have a bigger wedding (more than 50), find someone who is reputable from Bali Wedding Association. You can find good vendors via the website and if they did not deliver, you can make a report to the association. I've learnt my lesson and only advise i can give is to always make sure your planner is legit and well mannered. After all, you don't want your money to go to waste. We wasted USD1200 for her NOT doing anything but things happened for a reason. I guess the reason is this :)</div>

(Look below Before and After)<br />
I know I'm not supposed to even chop my hair for the wedding but because it was too heavy for me to handle, i just had to do it.<br />
<br />
If you travelled down to Penang island, malaysia, and if you like the style, go down to Twiggy Salon at Pulau Tikus or Macalister road. My hair stylist was Franson. Hair cut cost me RM50 and hair color for long hair is at RM280. But if you want to do the way i did, it will cost a little more.<br />
<br />
But I had such a good time chit chatting with the stylist. He is a talkative man. I got my hair in brown with lavender ash.<br />

Some people can never grow up.<br />
Despite all the experiences they have gone through.<br />
<br />
Most people get older and they get smarter and wiser.<br />
But for some, they stayed the same and forever be an ass.<br />
<br />
A Wise man will not tolerate negative influence.<br />
For some people, it is pure pleasure to ruin people's life.<br />

<br />
A Wise man ain't a hypocrite.<br />
They know what they are talking about and are usually make sense.<br />
<br />
A Wise man will never shut people down.<br />
Instead, they always have a better solution to work things out.<br />
<br />
<br />
A Wise man knows boundaries.<br />
Those who has lesser knowledge of being a wise person would go beyond your expectations.<br />
<br />
A Mature man knows when to stop playing games.<br />
Games that most people could see it wasn't a pleasant games.<br />
<br />
A Mature man doesn't spread rumors.<br />
They don't kiss and tell.<br />
<br />
A Mature man listens but they never judge.<br />
They judge only from what they see.<br />
<br />
A Mature man doesn't need a leader/pack.<br />
They always stand tall on their own.<br />
<br />
A Mature man has many good friends.<br />
Good friends that doesn't just gossip/b*tch about people but real good conversations.<br />
<br />
If you realized that your life are basically the opposite of the above, You need a wake up call. May that be from your mother, your father, your brother, your sister, your lover but probably best to have a wake up call from YOURSELF. Stop being Vain just because you think its fun. Quit bitching just because you thought you can go anywhere with that. Mainly, STOP BULLYING! One day when life gets tough, you will taste your own medicine.<br />

<br />
It is funny how we used to hang out, dinner, partying and as time goes by we all grew apart.<br />
Friends become selfish, arrogant and envious towards one another.<br />
Friends started to intentionally bullied (mentality) and expected to attend our wedding.<br />
<br />
When those people we used to call friends started to disrespect us,<br />
All we needed to do was to cross their name off the list.<br />
Because of a petty little fights among the boys,<br />
One of them started to be nosy and the other started to spit junk out of his mouth.<br />
<br />
He quoted :<br />
"I will not go to your Bachelor Party and I will not Attend your wedding"<br />
<br />
If you were the kind of friend who knows how to appreciate Friendship,<br />
I doubt you had that heart and mind to say such a thing.<br />
If you had the guts to ruin a friendship over PETTY LITTLE THINGS,<br />
Boy oh boy... You are nobody.<br />
FYI, it was out of obligations that you were first invited,<br />
But We are gladly uninvited you in the end because you know what...<br />
You ain't worth it.<br />
<br />
You lot know Bitchin' and that's all you lot do best.<br />
Have you done anything great throughout your life?<br />
The only thing you love doing are talk shit about other people,<br />
Especially STRANGERS!<br />
<br />
We are so happy that finally our real friends are attending our big day!<br />
Let the losers find their way to shitty land.<br />

That was the date we called ourselves Husband and Wife<br />
We celebrated our Semi Big Day at Singapore Botanic Gardens<br />
Along with my parents, sister and a friend from Penang<br />
My husband's friends were there to witness too<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A couple of months before we picked the date,<br />
I struggled to find the right Solemnizer<br />
As many as we all know that there were some negative comment on some Solemnizer<br />
I was afraid I picked the wrong one.<br />
<br />
There were a few that I contacted but most of them were busy<br />
They are usually booked by other couples too<br />
<br />
After quite a few emails, I received a respond from Dr. Eileen Aw<br />
She is a pleasant woman and after a couple of emails,<br />
We paid a visit at her beautiful home<br />
She is a kind person and she joked too!<br />
She told us what to do and reminded us of important documents<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since we were still confused with the location,<br />
(ROM office is close on saturday and sunday)<br />
I asked for Dr. Eileen Aw's advise as we were looking for small/informal ceremony<br />
She suggested to go to Singapore Botanic Gardens<br />
Both of us agreed to it!<br />
<br />
The ceremony on that day was quick and easy<br />
There were no complications whatsoever<br />
We took a couple of photos with Dr. Eileen Aw<br />
I was so blessed and happy to have her as my Solemnizer.<br />
<br />
We also packed a token of Appreciation (Red Packet)<br />
Since we read some comments about red packet,<br />
We were quite nervous how much to give<br />
And so we gave SGD60.<br />
The ceremony lasted less than 5 minutes.<br />
Like I said, It was QUICK and EASY!<br />

the first thing that comes in your mind is Quality service<br />
without quality, you might as well dump you job and find something else<br />
<br />
I have never met anybody who works in the service industry that gave poor services<br />
UNTIL!<br />
I met the one and only, our (EX)wedding planner.<br />
We are so disappointed with her work...<br />
<br />
She did not feel any remorse when we cancelled their service<br />
there was no QUALITY in her service at all.<br />
<br />
For those who are planning to have your wedding in Bali and if it's max 100 guests,<br />
All i'm saying is that YOU can manage it yourself<br />
It is not hard to communicate with Vendors of your choice.<br />
<br />
You have every rights to find them as long as they are reputable for Villas<br />
I wish i could be a wedding planner and that way, you would know what they are charging you<br />
and what direct vendors will charge you.<br />
<br />
Beware and always follow your guts.<br />
<br />

As soon as If your WP is unethical and has nothing but the wrong Etiquette to talk to clients<br />
I have to say, THEY ARE NOT THE ONE FOR YOU.<br />
<br />
My planner has been a disaster.<br />
Note that I'm no BRIDEZILLA!<br />
I've been nothing but patience with her (including my partner) but she gave us no solutions.<br />
<br />
Besides bad job, she also threatened one of the vendor I picked.<br />
<br />
But I'm happy that I'm about to get a better certified WP.<br />
<br />
Stay tune to know who I was talking about.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16079250344259195414noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262345398690472607.post-35366537055214388932015-06-19T17:57:00.002+08:002015-06-19T17:57:38.621+08:00Hate is a Harsh wordWhen I talked about people, It's a sin<br />
But when YOU talked about people, It's suddenly a word of wisdom.<br />
<br />
People may spread false rumors but If you wanted to do so,<br />
At least look yourself in the mirror and do yourself a favor<br />
Before you spread the city with all your germs.<br />
<br />
Trying to make others think about the negative of a person<br />
It certainly reflect back to you<br />
About what kind of person you are, really.<br />
<br />
Hate is a serious word to use<br />
You hate a person<br />
Let that be for yourself<br />
Don't ever try to influence your thoughts to others<br />
Not everyone will be listening to you<br />
<br />
As much as I dislike them<br />
I don't spread around the shitz about you lot.<br />
<br />
Have some respect for yourself<br />
Oh wait, you don't deserve one.<br />
<br />
P.S: Thank you god for listening to my prayer. At least one of my wish came true :)<br />
<br />
Peace out!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16079250344259195414noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262345398690472607.post-62780471197836390752015-06-18T17:43:00.000+08:002015-06-18T17:43:27.114+08:00Bali Wedding PlannerAll I can say for now is...<br />
<br />
Wedding planner that I found from BALI is such a pain in the a**.<br />
<br />
And also one particular Vendor that I hand picked myself (It's not even planner's PICK) wasn't grateful that I found her. I guess Balinese are just eager to rip foreigners off their pockets.<br />
<br />
After the wedding, I will tell you guys more about the charges Balinese Wedding Planner (At least the one I have right now) make you pay. I've done by duties as the "Second Wedding Planner". Basically, I'm the MAIN wedding planner :) and once you know how much (double triple quadruple) they charge you, you'd be shocked! To those who are loaded, I understand you have sh** load of cash to throw and spoil the Balinese Planners but to those who are good and reasonable with the money, just take some time to do some research. It won't cost you a dime to be aware of what you are paying for.<br />
<br />
I have to say, I've done a good job!<br />
<br />
Stay tune and Sorry for the long break :PAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16079250344259195414noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8262345398690472607.post-74299729245996355142015-04-05T14:55:00.001+08:002015-04-05T14:55:28.929+08:00Raw Kopi Luwak BeansOrdered too much Luwak coffee aka Civet coffee<br />
Originally from Sumatra Indonesia<br />
For coffee lovers out there, you know Sumatra has the best Luwak :)<br />
And also the most expensive coffee in the world!<br />
<br />
Once you had it, you would want more!<br />
<br />
I have 2 bags of 500gram, if anybody is interested please leave me your email add<br />
I'll get back to you shortly.<br />

I've been contacting many vendors for the wedding<br />
Needless to say I have an unreliable wedding planner based in Bali<br />
And yes, I'll be having two wedding events: My hometown and Bali<br />
The island of god :)<br />
<br />
I will sum up the stories after my wedding (About unreliable wedding planner)<br />
<br />
Realizing how much things need to be done consumes me<br />
Since I won't be needing much help from my planner,<br />
I had to handle things my own<br />
From F&B to Decorations and Entertainment (band and Photo Booth) to Wedding cake alone<br />
I've had much fun learning to be my own wedding planner ;)<br />
Sometimes it may seemed time is catching up,<br />
But sometimes I felt the time is enough for me to settle everything<br />
Now, that's a good thing!<br />
<br />
So far, I've been lucky to have met good vendors and everything settled smoothly<br />
(fingers crossed it will be smooth on that day itself)<br />
Transactions/deposits went through smoothly as I hoped!<br />
<br />
Thank god we are having an intimate wedding in Bali<br />
I couldn't imagine what it would be like if you had more than 100 pax<br />
Let alone 80 pax (Very intimate)<br />
The fact that villas in Bali are very strict and that we were given a curfew<br />
After midnight, there are no party allowed in the premises<br />
With the existence of such rules, Villa is still a better choice compared to hotel/resort<br />
Even though hotel/resort gives you less stress but the fact that you are given the privacy you need on you wedding day.<br />
<br />
Last year we went to Ayana resort and there was a wedding event (outdoor)<br />
Even though they blocked the premises, outsiders were able to watch and take photos<br />
Something that some of you wouldn't like!<br />
That is the reason why we picked villa<br />
<br />
But bear in mind that if you picked Villa, you'd require to have a wedding planner<br />
A wedding planner who will handle basically everything for you<br />
All you need is a pocket full of "Greens" and a "YES" to everything he/she says<br />
<br />
------------------<br />
<br />
When it comes to my hometown wedding (it will be in medan),<br />
Things are slightly easier and simpler<br />
Since we will be doing it in JW Marriott, our event manager helps us a lot<br />
Compared to the planner in Bali... oh boy...! *pissed*<br />
And also I'm not picky whereas my partner is pickier* than me!<br />
e.g1: He needs the table to be rectangular instead of round<br />
e.g2: He wants to have petals shower<br />
Boy has some wedding issue haha!<br />
<br />
The most important question and many were asking...<br />
What about the wedding dress?<br />
I've decided to get it tailored;<br />
Something simple and nice to look at :)<br />
I've had some tailored for my pre-wedding photoshoot too<br />
I'm super excited to see what it will turn out<br />
So, stay tune to see and if it turned out beautiful I'll feed you girls information about the dress.<br />
<br />

I've been waiting for my supposedly "1 Business day" iPad mini 2 that I got it online via Apple store<br />
I thought everything would go smoothly and I'd get it on the 11 (I got it online on the 10)<br />
DHL provides tracking system and so I waited for a day at home but no news except:<br />
<br />
"With delivery courier"<br />
<br />
Assuming that I will get the goods today! (11 Dec)<br />
I gave up and called up DHL to know if they will be coming at all (Called at 7.10pm)<br />
I asked the guy on the phone to find out and so he tried to call the courier<br />
Without any luck, he did not pick up the phone calls so he left a message to the courier<br />
<br />
I reminded him to make sure the courier calls me in order to get to the building<br />
Only tenants with card are allowed to be in the building<br />
It is absurd that courier did not even try to call me and just left!<br />
In that case, DHL shouldn't state:<br />
<br />
"Delivery attempted; Recipient not at home"<br />
<br />
Fact is that I was home THE WHOLE DAY just for it!<br />
They did not even attempt to call me<br />
What is the use for apple store to ask for my phone number if courier didn't bother to call?<br />
Courier did not even knock on my door to even say I'm not home<br />
<br />
To make couriers and DHL at ease, they should improve their service<br />
It is just a call away and they have to understand that we need to be home to receive goods<br />
They can't just let us wait and wait forever at home<br />
Worst part: I still didn't receive the goods after staying home all day long!<br />
<br />
I hope tomorrow I'll receive it... seriously!<br />

Our last day in Perth was another beautiful day</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blue sky, Sunny day and wonderful day well spent</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We checked out early from our place and decided to find the London Court</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of the attraction in Perth city</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a little alley of London</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Very tiny and it took only a minute to walk through it all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We didn't spend much time in there as it was pretty crowded</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After checking through London court we went to the famous fish market!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Fish Market at Fremantle was very crowded</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I'd say not as crowded as the one in Sydney</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was easy to find a spot to sit but mostly under the shade with no sun light :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was pretty windy and cold with no sun </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was on the look out for seat with umbrella!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
While waiting for the available sunny side seat</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was waiting on any available seat and after waited for a few minutes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some people left and so i moved from one seat to another</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I got the best spot!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We enjoyed the view and the sun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I enjoyed it with the food and a glass of hot Chai Latte</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSFU9Q8IwI-JTn7QfltfdK1KEWi9_ii7tWaPJaaB0KxJw_JA2XVEQ8EgBW7qNb8vnrAvimwmByNjqecH2GuRBPy_98g-G7A1B-rAhMPri6gBLM5e6sEoEwQdXBn3eF2xrl1LX_0g42Tjb0/s1600/IMG_2911.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSFU9Q8IwI-JTn7QfltfdK1KEWi9_ii7tWaPJaaB0KxJw_JA2XVEQ8EgBW7qNb8vnrAvimwmByNjqecH2GuRBPy_98g-G7A1B-rAhMPri6gBLM5e6sEoEwQdXBn3eF2xrl1LX_0g42Tjb0/s1600/IMG_2911.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seagulls were EVERYWHERE!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They often took opportunity to steal your food</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
AS SOON AS you got off the table</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were as fast as lightning bolt!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
There were a few Fish market in Fremantle</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to say that we enjoyed more of Sydney's fish market</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perth and Sydney has differences when it comes to fish market</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perth is more like a restaurant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(We went to Kaili's Fish Market)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sydney is like a real fish market</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have simply EVERYTHING in Sydney</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sashimi, Oysters and a whole lot!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perth has a very limited menu...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But we enjoyed the day just relaxing and chatting away</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
After dunked down tons of fries, fish and prawns</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We headed to the famous Kings Park Botanic Gardens</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to say that we love it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was our few hours left in Perth and we refused to leave!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We drove up to the top and Kings Park is way too big to explore in such a short amount of time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we decided to just find a spot </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Take some shots!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And nap...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What a comfortable grass to be on...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We didn't want to leave :(</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It was really hard to leave Perth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We wished we had more time to do more things</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was very happy I get to taste such delicious food in Perth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I got to witness the amazing mother whale and baby whale</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Not up close but STILL)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you PERTH and we will be back!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully not too long :D<br />
<br />
P.S: I'll be needing a new pro camera to take even better photos!</div>

On our forth day we had a long drive to Margaret River for some wine and lunch</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made a reservation online when I was in Singapore</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just in case if it was a busy vineyard</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The day was pretty gloomy with a lot of cotton balls in the sky</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(As seen on photos)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After a long drive, we took a break and stumbled upon a herd of cows</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There were many flies around them which I'm sure was pretty annoying to them</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They were all facing back and as soon as we approached</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ALL OF THEM...</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Were staring at us...</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was pretty creepy </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was as if they wanted to attack us but there were fences</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And so we left the herd and found an old man selling coffee :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The sky was getting darker and cloudier when we arrived Voyager Estate</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was so happy we arrived (Finally!!!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It took us around 3 hours or so just to get to VE</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I'm glad I picked VE and spent minimum 3 hours just in one Vineyard</div>

The compound was amazingly beautiful with tons of roses around</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was also very spacious and not as crowded as usual vineyards we've been in Sydney</div>

Rose petals were scattering around the grass </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Nonetheless, we enjoyed the scenery ;)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We went to the restaurant for our 12.45pm reservation</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would say service in Voyager Estate wasn't pleasant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I have the say the food was delicious with the capital D!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Voyager Estate provides ala carte and menu course lunch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(With/Without wine : Different price)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We weren't sure if we wanted course menu so they assigned us a two-seat table</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The area wasn't as pleasant </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(We requested the corner 4 seater table but we were assigned elsewhere)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we changed our mind after browsing through the menu</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We decided to take course menu instead</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were pleased to inform us that we could move to the "Initial requested" table</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess what you paid for gets you to move to a better table too...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And that's just awkward because we were from one table to another and another</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways, we were also given a complimentary sparkling wine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were DELISH!!!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The course menu is called "The Discovery Menu"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There were 6 menu and we had so much fun tasting every one of them</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were also given a free postcard with every menu we had</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Everyone of them has its own stories to tell</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've forgotten all the names but enjoy the photos!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just by looking at them, brought me back to Voyager Estate again</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We had 2 desserts!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One was from the menu and the other was complimentary</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How amazing was that!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After our awesome lunch we decided to go to the front building to taste and buy some wine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The place was empty and we would like to have a taste some of the wine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lady wasn't very pleasant and helpful</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She took out 2 glasses of wine, pour one for my partner</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But didn't pour one for me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Despite the empty glass next to his glass</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She asked me if I wanted one as well...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
DUH!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When second wine came, she didn't even change nor wash the glass with water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She poured down the second wine to the same glass...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why on earth would she do that?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Despite all these weird service, we bought 2 bottles of wine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All we could say: Hopefully VE can improve with their poor service</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apparently there were many complains with their services</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perhaps we are not the type of customers they were looking for...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
To be Continued...</div>

Just a couple of months back, My partner and I visited Perth for the first time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were there for 4 nights and it was way too short :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We visited couple places in Perth and we had so much fun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From amazing dinner to whale watching and lots of other activities!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our first night (we arrived pretty late), we were starving and was looking for food</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We drove around Mount Lawley (where we stayed) and stumbled upon this crowded restaurant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bivouac Canteen and Bar is a must place to visit for a good food and service</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We ordered a little too much and I ended up passing the food to my partner</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bad HABITs!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The weather in Perth was a blessing, we had such a beautiful day cruising around</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had my itinerary with me and we headed to Araluen Botanic Garden</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It took us around 40 minutes to get there</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With such a beautiful day, We didn't mind how long it took us to drive :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Along the way to Araluen, we spotted one wild kangaroo (what a beautiful sight)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought we would be seeing more but that was it</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Araluen is beautiful with tons of roses everywhere</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also spotted duck and ducklings in the pond dipping in the water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How ADORBS!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Things we didn't know, when we arrived end of october there were tons of flies around</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was almost the beginning of summer but the night was still very cold (16degree)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of the time especially outside perth city, there were many flies following us everywhere</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was very annoying and I hate flies!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
There are many beaches in Perth to visit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Famous one are Scarborough, Frementle, Cottesloe, City Beach and so on</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought perhaps the famous one are easy to find/go, we would start off with somewhere far</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To have itinerary is always a good idea to know what to do the next day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't you think?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So we went to Burns beach and it took us about 30 minutes to get there</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Traffic in Perth is amazing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everybody drives in a good phase</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No one was ever racing in highway like most asian countries haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We enjoyed the sunny day with breezy weather</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was so good I could taste the sea :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(I WANT TO GO BACK)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Having a car in Perth is a MUST!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Without it, you have no freedom to go wherever you want</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Public transport are not as convenient as Sydney</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
PLUS, cab fare are very expensive!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just a quick note, do yourself a favor and get a driving license ;)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
After a good tour of the day (it was an easy first day)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went to Must Wine Bar, I made an appointment before we got to Perth tho</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were actually very happy with the food</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was rather $$$$$ but the portion was big (Aussie style/size)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always ended up passing the food, once again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ordered a bottle of red with amazing dessert to share</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We ended the night with happy tummy!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
On a sunday morning, we got up pretty early to get to Hillary's Harbour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We arrived a tad too early actually :D</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I refused to be late so we got up early and waited in the car at the harbour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How silly of me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet another sunny day but the sea was rather choppy :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The last time we went for such activities was when we were in Sydney</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But instead of whale, we had dolphin watch but to our disappointment;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was no dolphins at all :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We took Mill's charters to do whale watch because we were guaranteed to see whale!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The watch lasted about 4 hours...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A VERY LONG HOURS INDEED...................!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Our an hour ride to the whale watch, we bumped at a whale carcass (Yes, as seen on TV)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sea was so choppy that our boat was going side ways... It was terrible</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I wasn't feeling sick (Just yet)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The carcass was smelling so bad; after inspection, we took off again to find live whale</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
After a long journey trying to spot whales, I started feeling sick....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So sick I wish I could just let it out in the water but I required to do that in a paper bag</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mill's charters provides them, So don't worry!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You had no idea how tiring it was to gaze at the sea for so long with choppy sea...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the end my body gave up and so I LET IT GO!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I felt little better and we finally spotted mother and baby whale</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were very shy... I wish to see them jumped off the water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or at least wave to say Hello or goodbyes haha</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I guess at that moment I just want to go back to solid ground</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not as adventurous as others but I wish I was...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I felt so happy that the trip wasn't a waste of time gazing at the sea and get sea sick</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was worth the sickness haha...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After a crazy boat ride, It was time to just laze at Hillary's Beach with a pack of Sandwich</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Homemade sandwich ;))</div>

Couple months back Cathy came to Singapore to visit his son</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My partner :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She came down to Singapore for almost a month</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She's a very carefree person </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She told me she would love to get a make over on her face!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was delighted to help her...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was not sure whether I'd be any help for her</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but it turns out not as bad as what I'd have thought!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd say I did an OK job and not over the top too</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She's an european with very intense features</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is good to cool it down with the shadings and contours</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It magically made her look softer and demure </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did a fun make up for her in Singapore </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I also did one when we were in BALI!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She looked amazing and happy with the outcome</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What do you think?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you want to be my muse? :D</div>

It has been awhile... I'm back with some great review for the ladies!<br />
<br />
Just 4 weeks ago, I visited Graceous for the first time to check out what is the fuss<br />
<br />
Many ladies were talking about the natural looking lashes by the Japanese team<br />
<br />
Do note that if you are a first timer, you'll receive a 20% discount<br />
<br />
I paid less than SGD110 :)<br />
<br />
I am a pretty satisfied customer knowing that I'm in a good hand<br />
<br />
Graceous is located at Mohammad Sultan road and it is easy to locate<br />
<br />
If you are lost, just use your GPS to track!<br />
<br />
When I arrived, there were a number of ladies getting their lashes done<br />
<br />
After mine was done (took about less than 2 hours or so), there was another lady waiting<br />
<br />
If you ever think about doing this, it is best to make appointment<br />
<br />
<br />
OK! I'm sure there are many of you would like to know what are the pros and cons<br />
<br />
I was very excited to get them in the first place<br />
<br />
One thing you need to know is that once you got them, you'll need to pay extra care<br />
<br />
REAL GOOD CARE<br />
<br />
It took me awhile to get use to the fact that my vision would be different from the usual<br />
<br />
The reason why I did lash extension is to reduce using eye shadow to enhance my look<br />
<br />
It helped with the lash extension, it made me look natural (don't mind the drawn brows) :)<br />
<br />
For the past 4 weeks, I rarely use eye shadows and would just go out with brows and blushes on<br />
<br />
I've read that some Bloggers find that the extension doesn't do much<br />
<br />
Guess what, I believed that extensions are for less dramatic look in a GOOD WAY<br />
<br />
Some says they want more dramatic...<br />
<br />
They could have just buy fake lashes and put some mascara on it<br />
<br />
I believed that would do the trick<br />
<br />
As for extensions, they are not for you to do anything to it<br />
<br />
I couldn't imagine some of the ladies would actually put mascara on extensions<br />
<br />
Must be a hell of a job to remove the mascara :P<br />
<br />
I took care of my extensions very well<br />
<br />
Whenever I put on some light/brownish shadows, I would removed it with cotton buds<br />
<br />
Don't forget to purchase an oil-free make up remover ;)<br />
<br />
Don't forget to comb your lashes ;)<br />
<br />
Try to remove excess water (after shower etc) with tissue paper and dab slowly<br />
<br />
Avoid touching your lashes for no reasons :D<br />
<br />
Am I going back for second round?<br />
<br />
Ans: I don't think I would any time soon because they are pretty pricey (Touch-up is SGD100, That's insane)<br />
<br />
Ans: It is a pain to take good care of it<br />
<br />
Ans: You can't simply just RUB your eyes (I like to do that :))<br />
<br />
Ans: You have to watch the way you sleep!<br />
<br />
ANYWAYS!!!<br />
<br />
Here are some photos from week 1 til week 3+<br />
<br />
As you can see they looked pretty good (thank god I have double eyelids)<br />
<br />
From the pictures you can tell that I really made efforts to maintain them well to last up to 3+weeks<br />
<br />
The last photos from the 3rd collage shows disorganized lashes haha!<br />
<br />
At the end of this lashes galore, I was too lazy to groom it<br />
<br />
But I had a good time looking at my beautiful eyes for a short period of time :D<br />
<br />
(My lash stylist is RIRI)<br />
