Looking Tall on The Wedding Day (at least, for the photos)

I was just looking through some photos by my awesome photographers (our two good friends took all the good photos, and one of them + my husband is processing them) and I realized — I looked really good and really TALL for the wedding! I mean, I still looked petite if my husband is right next toContinue reading “Looking Tall on The Wedding Day (at least, for the photos)”

Totally Married!

Woohoo! I am now officially married! No updates or sewing the the past week due to wedding craziness. We had the most wonderous wedding surrounded by lots of loving family and friends. And we were so lucky to have friends who were our officiant, our photographers, our decorators, our children activity coordinator, our MC, ourContinue reading “Totally Married!”

Semi-DIY wedding: Ring Pillows

I made a ring pillow yesterday! It seems like wedding crafts never ends! I keep on finding stuff I could do. This time I decided to make a ring pillow out of stuff I had around my sewing room (last minute sewing). So some scrapes from my white Maui dress, a random button, and aContinue reading “Semi-DIY wedding: Ring Pillows”

Semi-DIY wedding: The Program

I wanted to incorporate some sewing-flavor into my wedding besides what I am going to wear. It wont really be a Jue-be-Dex wedding if there are no threads and fabric involved, right? For our wedding program, I bought papers from paper and more, an awesome place for bulk and cheap stock paper. I bought threeContinue reading “Semi-DIY wedding: The Program”

Semi-DIY wedding — Short = Awesome

It looks like I wont be doing real sewing for a while, so bear with me while I rant about my wedding (do I sound slightly bridezilla? Im practicing 🙂 ). I am finally done with altering my dress! I took off a whole 2 inches off this petite wedding gown, and now it justContinue reading “Semi-DIY wedding — Short = Awesome”

Semi-DIY Wedding – Veil

Have you ever wondered why veils are so expensive? I was looking through Davids Bridal’s veil selection — they are mostly made from polyester tulle that I can buy from Joanns for 2 dollars a yard with some crystals or beads or ribbons glued/sewn on them. The non-barebone options cost 70 dollars and up! TheContinue reading “Semi-DIY Wedding – Veil”

Semi-DIY wedding: Rose Bouquet

This is somewhat un-related to sewing, but I like to talk about anyway! For my wedding, I decided to do my own floral arrangements. My friend Ngoc and I did a mock up decoration last Friday and we made the cutest bridal bouquet ourselves! 🙂 It was super easy — cut flowers to about 8inches onContinue reading “Semi-DIY wedding: Rose Bouquet”

Wedding Dress Alteration

For as long as I had been in the sewing world, I have had a fiance. Finally, he would be my official husband (he’s my sort-of-husband right now, since we are really legally married) this May, when we finally have our wedding ceremony. The second most important part of being a bride is having aContinue reading “Wedding Dress Alteration”
