Fail

I have to come to terms with my (big) wedding (dream) plans. I've been swayed too far away by the beautiful wedding sites (here, here, and here, and anywhere else not Malaysian). They made me dream (a helluva) big for when it came to my own wedding day. They made me believe I could DIY favors for each guest, DIY everything and anything. They made me think I could have a garden wedding (I can't because we Catholics have to be married in a church).
But NO. I have 500 (or a little less) guests, and the maximum number of guests American/European/Australian couples have are 150 people. I have been so strict with the guestlist and we still managed to reach 500. Kerraazzyyy.

I need to get out of my dream and come back to reality. The most that I keep thinking about nowadays is the decoration part. There are so many details, and I just don't think I can do that. And I just got a little pep-talk about Malaysian weddings (guests, actually). They wouldn't remember about the decor much, just the food maybe, and how much alcohol they had, and if they had a good dance session after dinner.

So from now on, I'm gonna put up a sign wherever I can see it with these words:


And these shall remain in my thoughts too:

(sidenote: I have officially failed at August Break. It's worse than last year's attempt, goodness gracious me. My only lame excuse shall be that I have started working full-time and am therefore too tired to think of anything (or come up with a photo) to post. Hence the posts about wedding woes full-on. For this, I am terribly sorry. I do dream of one day blogging almost-full-time. For now, it remains a dream, until I develop something to blog about and maybe (hopefully) something handmade-but-awesome to sell.)


peace & love
