Har Har Har Har.......
We finally survived the gruelling process of picking our wedding shoot photos! AND WE NEVER BOUGHT EXTRA PHOTOS!!!!!!! From 500++ photos we deleted until 30 photos. Warao. Sweat lor. It helped that i was tired and just want to get it over and done with.
A few snippets of our on-going repeated conversation:-
+++
"anything lor. Delete lor... *yawnn.*"
+++
"ok, its either keep this one or delete this one. Scissors paper stone, if i win i keep this one, if you lose you have to delete that one.. ok."
+++
"ok, this two, delete EITHER one."
+++
"If you delete this might as well the whole series because it won't make sense already.."
+++
"I really like this photo!!!!!~~~~~~~~ (saying it while hitting delete button...)"
+++
Dom: Delete ah?!
Joyce: Delete lor.. i lost what, scissors paper stone... """-_-
Dom (Pressing delete button).

Thanks to people around us who keep telling us we must resist the temptation. Especially my sister-in-law who emphasised that they regretted right after they bought 4 extra photos which cost $80++ each. We made a decision not to regret. Ok let this be a small experience for all others to learn. That bridal boutiques will definately encourage you to spend on buying more photos than the number you are given. But dont cave in!!!! (unless you really love to have an album and will flip it everyday.)
To us (me and dom) budget constraint people, we made a choice not to cave in and we found that its better that we acknowledge the following pointers:-
1) We will not flip the wedding album as often as we hope we will because life will definately go on and the album will sit there and collect dust.
2) Why spend so much money on a few photos when you can use that money to make your home better (which you definately will go home to everyday).
3) 1 photo $65, 10 more extra photos is $650!!!!!! That is 65 movie tickets or 216 plates of chicken rice or half a plasma tv.
4) Yes, the photos look really nice, but just press the delete button and by the next 3 days you will forget all about it because life goes on with work, school and wedding planning.
5) We really don't like the feeling of being ripped off. $65 for one photo is rediculous because we already paid a few thousand for the package. Please lor. Its just photos and in their market they don't even want to give clients the raw digital prints (for those unchosen ones). Pple really make huge money doing weddings and they make so much hype over just one day.
6) Better be happy than be broke because of photos..ahah... ""-_-
