XOXO

Woohoo! Settling our booking for chiavari chairs next week!

We were talking about our decor setup recently when I remembered that we have to book chiavari chairs for our reception soon (since our decorators don't have their own chiavari chairs in stock). Texted Zahrin from Kasai Sayang about it and being the superbly helpful darling that he is, he told me that XOXO & Co is having a promo rental price for their chiavari chairs!!!

SWEE.

When we first set aside our budget for chiavari chairs, it was at $10 per chair but with XOXO & Co's awesome promo of $6 per chair, syukur Alhamdullilah for... *calculates pakai calculator sebab weak in mental sums* ... $800 savings!!!

Actually all savings are welcome when it comes to wedding planning lah - $8 savings ke, $80 savings ke, $800 savings ke, savings is savings is savings. The only thing yang lain is savings dulu simpan dalam kotak tin bawah katil, savings sekarang simpan dalam joint bank account dengan orang yang tersayang :P

And taaaaalking about savings! We recently made some savings on our wedding bands too!!! Went to recce for wedding bands last week, found bands that we both loved (even though they're not matching wedding bands - not really a big deal for us since I'm not that big a sucker for matching things and my mat doesn't mind, anyway) aaaaand the best part is - we got them within our set budget even though there weren't any Christmas sale discounts for the ones we picked out.

Yay yay! My mat dah boleh put a ring on it! Hee hee.

Tak sia sia overestimate and jack up our budget sebab whenever something we book or buy for the wedding falls way below or at least within our budget, the flood of euphoria bursting through us seriously awesome tak belum angz. If you're not doing this already, please do so ok! Always, always, always overestimate your budget for emergencies. Kalau takde emergencies, even better - you'll feel damn good when you have excess cash to save or play around with after paying off whatever it is that you need to pay for.

And I cannot thank Zahrin from Kasai Sayang enough for recommending XOXO & Co and their promo to me!!! Why you so tulen and so baik hati ni. Another vendor who is dengki and mata duitan might have done something devious instead: Book chairs on clients' behalf at $6 per piece, quote $10 per piece to the clients and diam diam about it in hopes that the clients tak tau about the promo, and pocket the difference for themselves as profit.

Sooooo kalau you all you all pun nak tempah chiavari chairs for your reception, don't miss this opportunity to grab them from XOXO & Co at a much lower price ok! Tapi promo sampai January 2013 aje tau, so you all tak boleh hegeh hegeh macam makcik ke pasar membeli ikan, membeli ikan si ikan tenggiri, lambat booking promo lari, melalak menangis lah you sorang diri!

I must give you all heads up, though - dorang maybe reply lambat sikit because apparently their admin person is away for maternity leave so manpower ada kureeeeennnggggg sikit. It took them 10 days to email me and their service is more business-like than warm, although I might be wrong - nak kena meet the owner in person next week before I know for sure.

Ok lah tu je goodie I nak share for today. Have a good weekend errrrrbody! XOXO sama you all!
