I'm keeping an online journal here for my marriage, so I can track and also for my friends to keep updated of the situation

Excited and nervous, that is how I feel.

A year or 2 before we did think about settling down, but it was just talk and not the walk. And being young, i wanted everything to be lavish, 3 rings, reception at hotel etc.

Now I want it to be simple. Just 1 ring would do. Better save a little for the down payment on the apartment/house.

or upgrade car *grins*

We have not set a date, however it would before Nov 30th, or before mummy fly to USA.She have set a date between Sept 15th - Nov 30th, she have not bought any tickets to USA yet though.

Venue would be garden/pool/lake area. Unsure if want to spend more on a restaurant by the lake or something, but a club house would do.

A few things to consider. We may want to do 1 reception, combine both side together. Nikah after Asar and dinner reception after that.

So much thing to discuss and plan
