Ivory Birdcage Veil

I did write an entry or two about birdcage veil as a replacement of wedding veil in my blog. As mentioned before, I contacted  Dramatic Bombshell regarding my dream wedding birdcage veil. We exchanged e-mails and I told her how much my budget is and which design that I'd like to have by sending her some example pictures. She's good, I mean she did listen to you and try to meet your requirements as best as she could be.

At first, she had trouble to find nets that suits the look that I want (oh, memang demand saya ini!). But she came up with something similar to the net that I wished for. And the best part of it is it's within my budget. It's very reasonable I think. *happy*

Oh, the net is something similar like the picture below, and I told her I want the birdcage veil to be the same, exactly like it (or almost would do too!) I wanted some feathers in it, big flower with pearls and most importantly, it must be in ivory. Haha. I hope it turns out pretty.

I already have my wedding veil. I'm contemplating whether to wear long veil or birdcage veil for my reception. Tetiba terfikir macam susah je kalau nak makan beradap nanti bila pakai birdcage veil. Atau rimas tahap melampau sebab ade benda cover muka. Begitukah? Haih.

Birdcage Veil & Heels

We went to Pavilion yesterday in search of peep-toe heels for my reception event. I was influenced by Ami. Yes. Pointed kitten heels are so common. But since I've bought one already, let's not waste it. I'm gonna use it for my nikah then. Nikah pun ala-ala sopan, so I guess it'll be just alright for that ceremony. It matches my jubah as well, so no harm done. :)

Johan says it would be fun for me to wear heels that matches our reception theme. Certainly no black. So we opted for red then. I've thought about wearing colored heels for my wedding awhile back but I need a thumbs-up from Johan. Since he approved it, we went over to Charles & Keith searching for red peep-toe heels. I found one like in the picture in red. It's pretty and makes my feet look slimmer. Wheeeee! Priced at RM199, I'm gonna buy it soon since I have so many things pending this month.

On the other hand, I persuaded Johan to let me wear birdcage veil for the reception. I ni degil. Selagi tak dapat, selagi tu mintak. And finally he gave in sebab malas nak layan his bridezilla ni kut. Hehehe. So I contacted Dramatic Bombshell whether she can custom-made my birdcage veil. Let's wait for the reply and quotation then I'll share with you ladies.

All-time favourite! Hope she can meet my requirements and budget.

Birdcage Veil

I love veil. But for my wedding reception, I want it to look laidback yet mysterious, not some usual oh-so-boring long veil with beads. I totally adore birdcage veil. I sport short hair, and I intend to keep it that way during my reception, means there'll be no wigs or extensions of whatsoever! I've had enough of that during my engagement day.

Why I love birdcage veil is because...

1) I think not many of us have ever thought of using this style for their veil, thus makes it a bit extraordinaire especially here in Malaysia. Okay, I have this habit of not following the same thing as everybody else's having.

2) I think short hair have more fun in terms of styling. Birdcage is not a very heavy accessory because it's kinda wrapped around your head thingy. Plus, furs or flowers can contribute to the prettiness.

Aaahhhhh... aint't it pretty?
