  1. Hi Jhtrasherphoto, I am so glad you had a good experience there. You should come back for more! I suggest you go to Langkawi , an island near Thailand-Malaysia border. It is very secluded, has nice beaches with good modern infrastructure. You can learn a lot of Malay traditions, folktales and culture there. Good place for a destination wedding! Was it hazy when you were in Kuala Lumpur? As for the twin tower, it belongs to our national oil conglomerate. I like shopping at the mall adjacent to the towers.
  2. I have a question, is it cheaper having the dress made in China than having it made by a local seamstress? BTW, the dress is gorgeous! I can imagine you walking along the beach looking like a floating goddess.
  3. I think I've scared some of you. I am sorry dear Tammym! In Malaysia it is usual to have a big reception. Actually 500 is MY guest count (my primary, high school, college friends, neighbors, family members and relatives whom I know really well). MY PARENTS guest count is another story...it's suffice to say that it can reach ~900 people. From FI's side, there will be around 15 guests. We haven't send out the invitation yet , but we think many of his guests will not make it due to expensive airfare. Maybe we can throw another casual reception once we are home.
  4. Thank you so much for the warm welcome! I am Malaysian and my FH is from Houston,so it will be a DW for his family. It will be hard for them to fly 22 hours to my country and then try to absorb the new sight,culture and environment. My guest list alone is about 500 ! I look forward to sharing tips, stories and advice with fellow DW brides. Have fun planning your joyous day!
