The Beginning of Crunch Time...

The time has arrived for us to start designing our invitation cards. This is perhaps the trickiest part of wedding planning aside from table arrangements (which will be handled by our parents) because essentially, we will need to get 6 people to be in agreement before we send the final design to print -- Irwin, myself, and both sides of our parents :P

SATURDAY -- we made our ways back to Jalan Brunei Selatan; where we last visited Mr. Z back in September!!! Surprisingly, he still remembers us; and most importantly remembers promising us that he would take our orders for a minimum quantity of 400 pieces. He usually doesn't take personal orders for Chinese weddings; unless you go through a certain popular Malaysian wedding planner. Anyhow, we hit it off with him right away, discussing our ideas and budget $$$. We especially loved him for being very straightforward in his pricing and rather easy-going with the extras he will throw in altogether.

As with the whole wedding planning process, WAITING for quotes, designs, proposals and final outcome is the thing that kills me most :P We now have to wait for 2 weeks till we see the first draft of his design. After which, we will start discussion and finalizing with both sides of our parents. We have estimated that we will see the finished product in at least 6 weeks; if not more. Hopefully, the cards will be ready by mid-May so that we will all have ample time to fill it up, post some and hand-deliver others.
