L&F WEDDING | SINGAPORE . Pre-Wedding Sneakpeek Series 03

Wednesday, November 19, 2014

Hello!

Wow it's just a 3 days away from #FideLeonWedding! 
It's crazy how much we put in into ONE day isn't it? 

After last saturday's Bachelorette party (thank you my awesome girls Carrie, nadnut, Gwennie and Shirley for throwing me such a fun one and cutting me some slack from your sabo plans!! haha) I'm feeling a little sick now, have been a little feverish for this past 2 days and this annoying scratchy throat and dry cough but i've been spamming manuka honey drinks + Vit C + Cod liver oil and panadol and hoping that it goes way quickly, can't afford to be sick since we're flying on the red eye flight for our honeymoon the very next day! :D

So far all the wedding planning has been good, our co-ordinator, David from the hotel (The Village Hotel, Changi) has been faaaaabulous and he's really so passionate about making our special day the best ever and I hope we haven't troubled him too much but so far he's been so wonderful and accomodating to all our requests. 

Phew! Thank God!




PS: I've been sharing a series of these pre-wedding photos sneakpeeks shot by the talented Jeremy from AlvinAdeline & Co

[Ad] Yo What's up? Jelly Belly + Thunder Thighs!

Monday, November 10, 2014

Hello!

I think if there's one body issue every girl is concerned about, that would definitely be lower body fats! Like a jelly-ish lower belly, thunder thighs etc, i'm sure even some skinny girls are bogged with this annoying problem since most of us Singapore ladies generally work in offices and we just cannot run away from habits cultivated from working in an office! 

Habits such as sitting and working right after lunch time (no time to walk around in the office to wait for my lunch to slowly digest hello! work piles up every single second people!) 

Tea breaks at 3pm when your pantry in-charge comes around asking if you want a yummy sandwich/snack, it's always hard to refuse but you want a break from working and staring at your computer and a little chit chat time with your colleagues right?

How, you tell me how! LOL



Dorra Slimming invited me for quick treatment at their Kovan branch 
(just 10 mins away from my home, yay!)

Do you know that they focus on lower body fat slimming? 
Yeah! That's right, they only target your annoying jelly belly and thunder thighs!
While waiting at the reception for my consultant to get ready.


Time for a quick weigh-in prior to the treatment 
and basic assesment of water/fat/muscle mass in the body


The consultant explained that all the products used during the treatment is in-house and researched + produced to target slimming of lower body fats.


Hahaha can probably see all my problematic areas from here, 
jelly jelly fats and cellulite everywhere! *face palm*

Basically they will do doing a session of the Bye Bye Fat Treatment, haha such a cute name but power ok! It's supposed to be able to burn 3000 Kcal within one short 40 minutes session which is equivilent to a 10km run! Hahaha i've never, never, NEVER ran anything further than my compulsory 2.4km run in physical education, so seriously 10km?! That's freaking amaze-balls!


My consultant first applied this 2 types of Dorra Booster on my lower belly and thigh areas which will deeply penetrate and increase the fat burning process from the machine used later in the treatment.


Next up, using the "Hammer Roll" which soften fat cells and effects is enchanced with the application of the booster, followed by a shaping massage on problem areas with Dorra's Oxygel.

And the treatment is done!

It's the fastest slimming treatment I have gone for! And fast is awesome!
Seriously who has time to go for those 2-3 hours slimming treatment where you have to go to the steamroom.. then hot blanket..etc etc which is usually pretty uncomfortable and it's way too long and tiring after a whole long day of work.

In fact, most Dorra treatments last for about 40 mins or so, making it a breeze to go for a treatment after work and even have time to grab a couple drinks with friends after treatment before resting for the night. (:

Here are some slimming tips from Dorra: http://www.dorraslim.com.sg/slimming-tips-myths/

The Boiler - Gimme my succulent yummilicious PRAWNS NAO!!

Sunday, November 09, 2014

Hello you!

13 more days to #FideLeonWedding! For me and my mum, It's officially wedding D.I.Y CRAZY TIME over at my place, starting to feel a little anxious.. 

Anyway, awhile ago (yeah i'm saying AWHILE ago because i don't want to remind myself how long i have been procrastinating this) I was invited to The Boiler by my lovely bridesmaid Carrie for a food tasting session and I brought the fiance along! Huge fans of seafood so I was super looking forward to this!


Gave myself some beachy waves for our triple dinner date cause we're having seafood haha although we're nowhere near a beach. Spritz on some sea salt spray to make my hair even BIGGER! Vava-voom!


LOL leon wore his tuna t-shirt cos we're having seafood!


Yums! Surprisingly they are located pretty near my ex-office at macpherson area! So if you're looking for a yummy cajun seafood night out after work at you work around ubi/macpherson area, lucky you!!


FYI this is the crowd on a tuesday night, FULLY PACKED ok! So if you're thinking of making a trip down, do make reservations beforehand, just in case.


LOL not fair my head so bloody big cos i'm holding the cammie!


Can't wait for the Cajun seafood awesomeness! Slappin' on my plastic bib and getting ready for my lobster/prawns/shellfish!!!



I had their Beerita (yeah you read it right, Beer-rita, not Marga-rita!) which was really refreshing and quite and interesting twist! I like it and I'll definitely order this again the next time i'm there.



Hello Mr. Lobster! Gimme gimme now!!! 

There are 2 seafood bag choices, you choose which type you want and then the sauce you like, I honestly love love love their prawns because it's oh-so-succulent and my favourite sauce is Garlic Butter but The Works is really good too.

Boiler's Bombdiggity Bag
(Dungeness/brown crab, prawns,
mussels, clams, sausages, corn & bun)

Boiler's Duo Bag
(Prawns, mussels, clams, sausages, corn & bun)

Sauce
The Works, Garlic Butter, Peppa' Butter


DARLING! pluck me some yummeh succulent prawns NAO!!


Craving for more of them succulent prawns!! I would so go back now for a HUGEASS bag of prawns with Peppa' Butter, my ohhhhh my. Lol I was greedily grabbing for my second prawn even while the fiance was still taking photos of the good ol' mess of food!


Awww, I love you babe.


We had like 4 bags of seafood and 2 lobsters and lots of fried food, totally satisfied!

With my darlin' nadnut & Esther with our other half(s) lol talking about our future HDBs all night!


Seriously, don't only go for their seafood bags because their fish and chip is soooo good! We especially loooove the chips because you can also scoop the sause from the seafood bag and eat it that day, yums!


We also had the:
  • Bacon Shrimp with Hickory BBQ sauce 
  • Southern Chicks & Waffles 
  • Louisiana Spicy Mid Joint Wings
Oh i love the Southern Chicks and Waffles! Yeah fried chicken and waffles sounds like the weirdest combination ever but once that awesome bite hops into your mouth i'm sure you'll love it!



We had fried durian for dessert too! Whoa the durian is really gao gao and superb! Really nothing bad to say about our dining experience, we went home feeling so so so satisfied!

Wondering when is my next visit there, after the honeymoon perhaps?

Pamper ourselves silly with a Bed, Brunch and Bliss Staycation at Pan Pacific Hotel

Friday, October 31, 2014

Happy halloween, hope you're having a scaaaaaaary good time! :P

Counting down 23 days to the wedding! Oh gooooosh I'm so excited for the honeymoon!
I've arranged for afternoon tea with my bridesmaids tomorrow and we're having the hens night on the 15th (crossing my fingers and hoping for a very very mild hen's night, please nadnut shirley don't kill me, I'm openly damn scared of this 2 hahah)

Busying with lots of wedding prep, who know that there will be so much to do right? The PR team from Pan Pacific Singapore invited us for a stay on their newly launched Bed, Bliss and Brunch staycation package!


★ Bed, Bliss and Brunch staycation package:
  • One-night staycation for two in a Harbour Studio Room (usual rates $590++/night)
  • Four-hour Sunday Champagne Brunch for 2 at Edge (usual price $168 per adult)
  • Late check-out at 5:00pm on Sunday
And this package is priced from $525 and available on Saturdays until 28 December 2014.
More details HERE!

They were so nice to give us an upgrade to the Pacific Harbour Studio which is bigger and OMG wait till you see the awesome sunken tub!

Our room was on the 33rd club room level, which also gives us access to the Pacific Club Lounge for their afternoon tea and evening cocktails!

Here's a mini room tour:


Hallway in the room (toilet and shower on the left)


Walk-in wardrobe + safe area


Oh goooooooood, just look at that huge sunken tub. I want a rub-a-dub-dub bathtime NAO!
Luckily i brought my Lush bubble bath bars, hehe if not I could totally cross over to Suntec just opposite to grab some anyways!



Thank you Pan Pacific for the chocolates, they were delicious and disappeared into our happy bellies as soon as we spotted them! :D


Pretty fab view of the city where I was rolling around in the massive bed!



Pleasantly surprised to find 2 "Your-Big-Day Survival Kit" Black box sitting by our bedside waiting for us when we checked in! (i recently reviewed one of the Super 10 boxes and did a giveaway on instagram!)

One for the to-be groom and a hugggggge one for the to-be bride - yay me!! :D



And yup, didn't take 2 seconds before Leon started digging through and exploring his survival kit!




My turn, my turn!!



So Black Box and Pan Pacific Singapore have teamed up to produce a Wedding Survival Kit for Her and Wedding Survival Kit for Him specially for couples who hold their weddings at Pan Pacific Singapore. 

These boxes will be given to the couples on the BIG DAY and contain life-saving items that might save them in a pinch during the day! So if you're a pan pacific wedding couple, there's a lovely surprise waiting in store for you!!!



Having a lots of fun exploring the contents of our boxes! 

I've always wanted to try the Bioderma Micellar water for make up removal (yah i know i'm super backdated, because I have so many bottles of oil makeup removers that was sent to me! hahaha wanted to finish my stash before I try new products) so yay I got to try it from this survival kit and I really liked it! 

My friend, Florella who relocated to london was telling me that it's so much cheaper in London as compared to SG, since it's a french product will it be even cheaper in Paris? Perhaps i should stock up during my honeymoon! :D

Lots of useful products in the kit that I might really need during the wedding but probably will not have on hand because I will not plan for it like the blister pack from Hansaplast and wipes from Nivea and Snail White hydrating mist, sewing kit just in case? This kit is quite smart and probably totally essential on my wedding day! 

Thanks Black Box! I'll have my bridesmaid bring around some of these essential items on my wedding day just in case! hehe



Oh who's that? Uh-ok.
Just this crazy dude pouncing on the bed, mid-selfie! 

Hahaha I kind of love this accidental shots! Me being all smiley and casual taking a selfie and leon comes poucing over like a big fat cat.



Yep, yep there he go.



Hehe you're crazy but I love you! 23 days to go! ♡




LEON: WANT A COOKIE? *Act cute wink wink* ♡ 

FIDEL: DON'T WANT I WANT YOU!!! NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM!


  
All these snacking on cookies was making us hungry, so up we go to level 38 Pacific Club Lounge for afternoon tea! I love love, looooove the pacific club, I might be a little sua ku but I think it's one of the prettiest hotel lounges i've been to! 

Great view of the city and all the comfy armchairs and couches ahhhh feels like home.



Whoaaa Chill Crab bun, yuuuums!

Yeah.. I knooooow, looking like a greedy pig, can't even stop eating for a pulse for a photo but I was still chomping on, hahaha the whole braces can't eat anything thing totally does not apply to me, chomping on like a soldier!


After afternoon tea we went to Marine Square and Suntec city to pak tor and bought Leon a pair of new pants from POA, apparently there's the tradition that i have to put a pair of pants, wallet and belt when we return head and tail part of the roasted pig back to the groom's family, sooooo much traditions and all that, ugh! 

Went back to our awesome hotel room back at Pan pacific and i was whining about how upset i was having to miss out on the Sunday champagne brunch at Edge and late check out at 5pm, seriously just imagine a nice sunday, sleep until you feel like it, wake up and head to EDGE, slurp some delicious succulent oysters and seafood and everything awesome in between and back to nua-ing till evening to check out.. SHIOK! 

But too bad we had to miss that all out because we had our Guo Da Li thingy so we have to get back home like at 8am. So saaaaaad! So i declared that I had to have oysters for dinner!!!

...and my wish was granted! 
muahaha thank you my awesome loving muackies fiancé. ♡


..and lookie who we managed to jio out for dinner! 

Our future #punggolians double date! Hehe coincidentally, nadnut and Skai was in town for their staycation at another hotel and we met up for dinner + drinks in Robertson Quay at Oyster Bar Grill & Wharf.


Lots of wedding + honeymoon talk and a round of mojito and beers for us and we headed back to our hotel(s)! heh


 Midnight bubble bath!! Gonna have a nice soak, eat grapes and watching walking dead on Leon's laptop!




Love love, LOVEEEEE! Lush bubble bath bars! So much bubbles it's gonna spill out of this giant tub any moment now hehe! 

My favourite bubble bar from Lush has got to be SunnySide, which is this super yummy smelling super glittery max and it makes the bathwater all gold and blingy, so so pretty. 

And yes, i only used 1 of the SunnySide bubble bar and had this much bubbles! I will alwasys break it into small fishball size and hold it in my palms and let the water hit the bubble bar until it bubbles up like craaaaazy. I think it was partly because the water pressure is really high so it was so bubbly because i've tried this bubble bar at another hotel stay and it wasn't this bubbly haha

I predict that I will go craaaaazy at the Lush in London since it's going to be cheaper there and the christmas season collection will be out!!!


Morning came way to quickly and we rushed to Edge for a quick quick breakkie before rushing off home for our Guo Da Li and spent the rest of the day visiting relatives to deliver cakes and invitations!

Ahhh the good times passes too quickly! How i wish we could have stay for the Sunday Champage brunch and finally check out at 5pm leisurely but too bad! Next time perhaps! (:



Didn't have time to take photo of the live food stations but the breakfast food selection was so extensive! Super awesome, i think i could've stayed here for a 2 hour breakfast if I wasn't in a rush for time! Hahahah
