Warfare at Vogue

IT'S SO DIFFICULT!!!!!!!

Shaohen and I finally went to choose our pre-wedding pictures at Vogue Collection yesterday, and I tell you, it was extremely difficult! Thank God we've already psyche ourselves a long time, and was really determined to stay disciplined so that we won't fall into temptation.

hahaha... so what exactly am I talking about?

Well, the photographer at Vogue Collection had taken about 400+ of our pictures during our pre-wedding photo-shoot. So many right? But the problem is, we could only choose about 28, because of our package. Of course, if we want to choose more pictures we can, but it also mean paying more.

We were very determined NOT to pay more, so we set out on this mission with a very focused mind.

At first, it was super easy to cut from 400+ pictures to about 192. Then another round saw us reduce 192 to about 72. And finally from that 72 to 50.

Now here's the really difficult part... Haihhh... Our hearts literally broke when we had to cut from 50 to 28. So so so hard, because we really liked all the 50 pictures. But we didn't want to top up la, because those money can be put into much better use.

And so! We managed to walk away from Vogue without paying extra! Woo hoo! Hahahhaa... We're quite proud of our determination and discipline hahahaha. But still a bit heartbroken because of all the nice pictures that we won't have. It's ok... we still have Grant for our actual wedding day!

So a piece of advice for those of you who are getting married soon, it's possible for you to stick to your budget! The pre-wedding pictures may look very nice, but keep reminding yourself that it's the actuall wedding day pictures that are going to be the important ones! ;)

*phew* 3+ months to go!
