Collected bridal photo albums

Collected all the photos and albums. Paid the rest of RM800 for the additional album. So the total cost I paid for the bridal studio photo sessions is a huge sum of RM 2661.

(in RM)
Package: 1388
4 additional costumes: 200
Set hair: 30
Charges in Malacca: 43
Additional album: 1000

Total: RM2661

Anyway I managed to get the rest of the photos that I did not choose FOC as I did not use the gowns for other wedding services or wedding banquet although the rental of the gowns were included in the 1388 package.

Would I do it again? Probably not for those fancy costumes and not with this bridal studio. I also would not buy so many albums. Just one quality album with 13R size photos covering the full page will do.

Booked our rings

So after the bridal photo shoot were done, we proceeded to get our wedding bands and diamond ring from the Carat Club. As the diamond ring is just a symbolic item, just a small one will do. Total cost is RM4069. A hefty sum indeed for a 27 years old couple to blow on rings.

Added 13R photo album

While at the bridal studio to choose the photos, I succumbed to temptation and ordered another photo album with 21 pieces of photos sized 13R. The photos will cover the full page of the album. It costs a whopping RM1000. Actually it is not needed and I did it just because I wanted the photos to cover the whole page. The Joneses Syndrome maybe.

Photo shoot in Malacca

Drove down to Malacca for the outdoor photo shoot. Had to pay extra for ampoule and fuel charge because we traveled around Malacca in the photographer's car.



I have no idea what kind of ampoule was used. Actually ampoule refers to the small glass vial (container). As mentioned in this thread in the beauty care section, the various types of ampoule are:

Bridal studio photo shoot

The photo shoot session started at 10.30am and it took one whole day without any meal breaks. I had to pay RM30 extra to have my hair set and paid the balance of RM888 for the whole package.

Choosing the gowns

We went to the bridal studio to choose the gowns for the photo shoot. Paid up another RM400 so that the chosen gowns will be reserved for us. While there, I chose another 4 fancy costumes (Thai, English ala King Arthur period, Shanghai - The Bund, Olden Chinese) with 5 poses each for RM50 each so a total of RM200. It was for fun and the results were hilarious. This is in addition to the 3 costumes (Japanese, Chinese Kwa, Emperor) included in the package.

1388 bridal studio package

Signed up during a wedding fair held at Lot 10. Chose this package because of the FOC photo shoot session in Malacca.
