KK Business Trip

Silver Boxes and Rehal available for rental.

English Round Tray and etc available for rental.

Classy Wooden Boxes and Tray available for rental.

Went back to KK last week just to bring all the wedding gift @ hantaran accessories and to get these pics. I have a great and chaos weekend with my family members . Also I've been waiting and expecting a call/appoinment for a potential customer but she didn't return a call. Maybe bukan rezeki but a bit dissapointed. It's okay =).It means I have to work harder to get more and more customers hiring me on their wedding day. Chaiyok!

Floral Pomander Ball

Pomander ball or sometimes we called kissing ball is a great floral piece that can be used for variety of things in your wedding. It is wonderful bouquets, deco and great centerpieces.

Oh you may ask what is a pomander? It is a foam ball covered with flowers (it can be artificial or fresh flowers) to create a ruffly floral ball. A ribbon can be attached or can be hang as decor. You can also prop it on a pretty vase and use it as centerpiece.

If fresh flowers are being used, a sturdy flower such as daisies, carnations, mums, roses or dahlias work best. If you plan on using silk, you can go whatever fancy flowers that you like. Keep in mind that fresh flowers would need to be created as close to your wedding day as possible, while silk/artificial flower will last forever and can be created as soon as you like!

I've been thinking to find some peach and white roses/carnations for a small hanging pomanders to be attached to hand bouquet of my client big day. I hope she will like it.

5 Senses to check to have a Glamorous Wedding

I came across an article about Glamorous Wedding from Brides UK Magazine and I would like to share the secret about planning your wedding by going through the 5 senses one-by-one.

• Touch - For example think about sourcing the oversized good quality napkin, remember that your guests will be seated for over an hour and they will be wearing these for the duration.Check!


• Smell - Spritzing the reception space with a room spray moments before the guests arrive.Roger!


• Sight- Beautifully dressed table are key. Mix square tables with round will create some interest. Square and rectangle tables are one of my faves. A square-shaped table is not only can facilitate conversation better than round table, but it also gives a room a clean modern look! They are great for canvases for great printed table runners, interesting floral arrangements and rows of elegant pillar candles. Consult with your wedding or event designer to get feedback about the use of square tables. Each venue is different and may not accomodate square/retangle table. Check!

• Sound- Opt for live music throughout the dinner and DJ for reception afterwards. Check!


• Taste - Give special thought on the starter course, which set the tone for the rest of the meal. Roger and OUT!

Nas Great Idea

'Bakal pengantin yg sedang mencari pereka dekorasi terutamanya dalam mencipta ruang pelamin yg terindah adalah dinasihatkan untuk menitikberatkan perincian berikut...

• Pemilihan haruslah berlandaskan keperibadian anda sendiri. Dari situ, anda dapat tahu gaya,tema warna dan konsep yang sesuai untuk majlis perkahwinan idaman anda. Contohnya, jika anda cenderung ke arah Islamik, konsep yg sesuai buat anda mungkin gaya Timur Tengah.

• Dari segi pemilihan warna. Nasihat beliau, pilihlah dalam kelompok warna kegemaran anda sendiri kerana ini adalah hari kebesaran anda. Jadikanlah majlis yg berlangsung, turut menggambarkan yg terbaik dari anda.

• Ketiga pula mengenai konsep hiasan. Jika anda berjiwa lembut orangnya adalah amat sesuai dengan konsep bunga-bungaan segar penuh menghiasi segenap ruang, ibarat sebuah taman nan indah.'

Perfect Day Planner

• 'Tetapkan tema dekorasi, pilihan warna dan bajet terlebih dahulu sebelum mencari pereka dekorasi. Sediakan gambar-gambar pelamin yg diminati dan juga contoh warna yg ingin digunakan. Malah pasangan mempelai boleh melayari laman-laman web ataupun majalah-majalah yg berkaitan untuk mencari pereka yg serba kreatif dari segi rekaan mereka.'

• 'Pengantin haruslah bijak memilih warna tema untuk majlis bersejarah mereka. Pilihan warna tema haruslah bersesuaian dengan diri sendiri dan pasangan masing-masing. Pilihlah warna tema yang tampak anggun dan tak lapuk dek zaman serta bersesuaian dengan konsep perkahwinan, pakaian pengantin, kad kahwin, pelamin dan dekorasi keseluruhan.'

Dicky D' Fabulous

• 'Adalah dinasihatkan agar anda melakukan sedikit penyelidikan dan bijak membandingkan antara pengusaha-pengusaha dalam senarai pilihan anda. Ini mampu membuka ruang buat anda untuk memilih pilihan terbaik dari yg terbaik.'
