Wedding Bands Design

Having decided on the ring designs, now we will have to exercise our creative juices to design our own logo to be embossed on the rings.

Deep in concentration. Evelyn also designed a few logos for us, using our initials "K&C". After several rounds of discussion, we decided to use the initials "S&H" instead and it has a meaning as well! So, with a new concept in mind, we sat down at our corners and exercise our brains!

The rough sketches that we came out with.

my dear designer, who made our concept come true :)

Wedding Bands Selection

Happy Boxing Day! Hope everyone had a wonderful Xmas yesterday! We attended our first wedding dinner as Mr & Mrs :) Anyway, back to our wedding journey, haha! What's a wedding without wedding bands? In the next few posts, I'll be documenting down our journey in choosing our wedding bands :)

We're (or rather me, haha) extremely particular about our wedding bands, as we'll be wearing a symbol of emotions and a life long commitment to each other. I wasn't really keen to buy off-the-rack wedding bands, as that meant we'll be wearing the same bands as xxx no of couples. So, the only way was customisation, for a pair of wedding bands that belongs to us only :)

Leecher (as always) entrusted me with the task of shortlisting shops so that we can go ring-shopping. From my intensive research online, I have already narrowed it down to one single shop that I wanna visit -

As usual, I don't like to start the day on an empty stomach as we will be on our legs, walking all over town - need all the energy that we have!

Not only did I see a design that I love, it fits like a glove :) And not to mention the superb service from Evelyn & Sandra, the 2 lovely ladies from the shop. We went to other shops, like Leehwa, SooKee, Love&Co - but nothing comes close to what Fairy Inc can offer. So, after a round of serious discussion with Leecher, we've decided on customising our wedding bands with Fairy Inc.

**************

Back @ Fairy Inc again to discuss on our wedding bands.

Evelyn, our designer brought out a lot of rings and designs for us to look. When doing customised rings, you can only imagine the outcome in your mind.

Leecher cant wait to get started!

The theme was "simple and classic". Leecher had a fun time deciding on his design and he wanted a piece of everything, super rojak. Evelyn was very patient with us and trying to sketch out the final design for Leecher to see. Somehow, Evelyn was able to sense what designs I prefer and she hit all the right notes when designing my ring. And, we decided to make our rings unique by designing our own embossing!

BKK Jun Biz Trip 2011

It's December & one of my fave month of the year, cuz it's my birthday month! Yippee (not on the growing old part though)! Anyway, Xmas is around the corner and soon, we will be counting down to 2012! Exciting plans lining up for 2012 and honestly, I can't wait for it to come :)

Guess my location ....

Mega hint

This should be obvious enough :)

Yup, jetting off again ..... to BKK! I was in BKK twice in Jan (1 week apart) & now, embarking on my 3rd trip to BKK. This was also the first time I travelled alone for business this year - I'm too used to having companions for trips this year that I actually felt lonely on this trip. Thankfully, it was just a 2D1N trip.

Breakfast on board to curb the hunger pangs.

The familiar sight of the airport & waiting area for the airport transfer.

On the way to the hotel :)

Complimentary Wifi access in the car! Suku-me quickly took a pic and whatsapp to Leecher, haha!

Staying @ Shang for this trip, as it was the closest hotel to the clients that I'm visiting this time round.

My "home" for the night.

The tidy room before I unpack and messed it all up, opps!

Complimentary water that don't come in the normal Evian bottles.

Love long mirrors, haha! They are always located strategically near the door, so you can do an outfit check before walking out of the door.

Platter of welcome fruit :)

A part of BKK that I have yet to explore. I was fortunate to get a room facing Chao Phraya River.

Enjoying the sights in the midst of preparing for client's meeting, haha!

Grabbed my stuff and headed for lunch @ the lobby.

It was during the election period when I was in BKK, thus, I had the chance to see the election posters decorating the streets. They have over 30 parties running for elections!

Back to hotel to change and head out for dinner :) As it was during the election period and I was traveling alone, Leecher and Mummy were worried about me and told me not to venture out at night. So, to give them a piece of mind (and spare myself from their nagging), I had my dinner @ the hotel instead.

Angelini was voted best Italian restaurant in BKK for 11 years in a row. It offers contemporary Italian cuisine and interesting selection of world class wines in chic atmosphere.

Love the lights, but I bet cleaning must be a chore!

Early dinner @ 8pm. Guess no one eats that early in BKK.

My fave Riseling to start the night.

Bread basket

Parma ham & rock melon slices.

Linguine pasta in canadian lobster and spicy tomato sauce

Sometimes, it quite enjoyable to have a meal all by yourself :)

***********

3 slices of waffles to start my morning :)

Chilling out @ the lobby in the late afternoon for my 9pm flight home. Once again, I couldn't get onboard the 6pm flight :(

The usual snack for me :) I think they are better at making breads/sandwiches than sweets (apart from the chocolates from the chocolate bar)

Time to head to the airport. I had to leave @ 7pm and braced myself for the horrible Friday night traffic to the airport.

The long journey & I had the time to take in all the surroundings along the way.

Finally! Till the next trip back :)
