We're going to Taiwan!

Melvin and I had been looking at wedding pictures for a long time and thinking of what bridal saloon to get for our wedding. Hearing about the wedding fair in Vivocity, we just went to it and see what good packages we can get for. We had no intentions of getting anything and was there to look see, and will only get a package if it suits what we want. But... in the end, our defenses gave way.

We only reached Vivocity at 3plus and we hadn't had anything to eat yet. We wanted to go for a late lunch before heading to the booths, but one of the booth just attracted us over without our knowing. Before we know it, we're already sitted in one of the booths by Taiwanese Company 浪漫一生. I can assure you, we were only there to LOOK SEE, not for any purchase coz anyone will know that it'll be expensive to get a package overseas. Right?

The woman who talked to us was very nice. Think they were all Taiwanese. There was only one singapore lady who went around. But Melvin and I weren't so attracted to her coz she's rather boisterous and didn't seem very professional. She said she was there to make us singaporeans feel more assured, and I'm like.. diaox.. so weird. In the end, we were so bought over by the pictures that we put down a 2K deposit and now awaiting for the trip to Taiwan.

After the purchase, Melvin and me felt so worried. First, we haven't looked into overseas package and don't know the market rate, secondly, we haven't heard of 浪漫一生before... And thirdly, overseas package means we've to take care ourselves of our actual day gowns etc. It's only a overseas Photoshoot package. So... we've spent quite a bit just on our album itself. My thinking is photoshoot is most important coz it'll be something to keep in remembrance of our wedding. We can save on the dinner preparations and all but not photoshoot, but it's still a big sum. So after that I kept doing budgetting, and Melvin kept searching online about 浪漫一生.

After searching for a few days... we finally realized that.... 浪漫一生is a branded company! Haha! And the Singaporean lady who was boisterous and 'unpro' was actually a well known makeup artist in Singapore (I saw an article on her in Style Wedding)! Diaox. So... it's a blessing in disguise. Haha.. Although we really did pay quite a bit for our photoshoot, at least we're getting a great photoshoot and a wonderful time in Taiwan for our 'honeymoon'. We'll be going next year in March so that we can take pictures with the sakura and by the sea.

Here's my favourite album taken by 浪漫一生 (posted by people on the forum). If you're looking into going overseas for photoshoot, you can take it into consideration, if you don't have a tight budget. ^_^
