debaran baju bersanding

hello all... gosh i dont know where to start! there are so many backdated posts i need to blog. My life was upside down.. preparation kawin yang memenuhkan schedule harian.. sampai nak kencing pun berkira....

i have put so much effort on my baju sanding.. not because its done by rizalman.. no i can't afford rizalman.. but simply because i have crossed the land to find the material just to get the color and material i want.. yes, i designed my own baju but the hardest part is to fit between my shoestring budget. I don't want to sewa baju just for the fact as its not cheap anyways, and i want to treasure my wedding dress for my kids to see and to see how small i was when i was married :)

I made this baju in bangi.. in a small bridal boutique.. banyak kali juga pegi fitting and kemaskan here and there... mula-mula try memang tak seperti yang diingini.. but nasib baik tukang jahit tu sabar and lepas bincang finlly baju siap a week before majlis. Panic juga sebab hantar baju since bulan May lagi tapi biasala.. mana ada butik pengantin siapkan baju terlalu awal... lagipun size badan berubah lepas puasa.. All in all, lepas sleepless nights memikirkan baju sanding.. alhamdulillah siap and frankly i love how it turned out.. and i love how it flows on my body... so far i'm a happy customer walaupun design ada sedikit perubahan from the initial sketch.

decided wedding pallete : powder blue (bride & groom's attire) + light grey (for family and bride's maids attire)

macamana powder blue tu? dia seakan akan greyish blue... macam berabuk sikit... memang agak mencabar nak pilih material for this color... bila letak lining shade lain skit color dah berubah.. i'm not sure if this is really powder blue... but my eyes love it ;)

mine is the bottom right.. roughly.


here's s sneak peek of my baju:

initial sketch by me (bahagian kedut depan tu mencabar sikit nak buat)
