The Bridal Party

We're pretty much sorted in choosing our bridal party. One maid of honour, one best man, and Lee's two nieces, Holly & Olivia, are our flower girl and ring bearer. Yes, we're going the unconventional (and cheap) way by having darling Olivia be our ring bearer.

The whole task of finally getting my dress over the weekend has sent my whole wedding colour scheme out the window. I initially wanted a white, silver and red theme. But now that my dress is actually an off-white champagne colour, with beautiful gold threads, the white and silver idea has to be scrapped. Now its become an off white, gold and deep red theme. The initial theme selection was an idea going for our East-West fusion marriage. And at the same time, I was really trying to avoid the whole Chinese-sy colours. Hence no ang pow bright red type of colour! But now we're somewhat closer to that. Meh.

In any case, the symbolism of the fusion is by having the boys wear suits and red ties, with Lee in a white tie, while my MOH and nieces wear a cheongsam. I went shopping at Haymarket with fSIL and her mother yesterday. And we found the girls these gold cheongsams. Don't they look adorable?
