13 DPO today, tested on 8 and 9 DPO due to symptoms spotting like mild twinges on my left side which I never had before and sore boobs (real sore like I can't even hug my husband kind). IM SO HAPPY AND NERVOUS AT THE SAME TIME!
First cycle using OPKs, can't believe it worked. Wanted to show that temperature are all over the place and should not be the main concern :)
Growing up as a South East Asian, curly hair was never really a thing in my culture. Blow drying and straightening treatments were my constant (1st photo). Since moving to Switzerland, decided to grow out my chemically treated hair and got my first curly hair cut plus learning how to style. Still a long way to go as I still need to learn how to dry and style my curls, any advice for first timers are welcomed!
Routine:
Our wedding is finally over 🤍🥹
After months of planning, stressing over timelines, spreadsheets, guest lists, and every tiny detail, we finally got to live it.
Sharing three of my favourite moments (with all my dresses):
✨ Our Chinese tea ceremony in the morning, celebrating my culture with my now-husband, who went through every tradition with so much love despite understanding very little of what was happening.
✨ Our vow ceremony, where we finally got to say the words we'd been carrying through years of long distance.
✨ Our dinner reception, surrounded by the people who have supported us every step of the way.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that no one remembers whether the napkins matched perfectly or if the timeline ran five minutes late. They remember the hugs, the laughter, the tears, and the moments that felt like you.
This community was such a huge source of inspiration and advice throughout planning, so thank you to everyone who shared their experiences. It made the process feel a lot less lonely.
Happy to answer any questions about planning a multicultural wedding, a Chinese tea ceremony, or hosting multiple events in one day. ❤️
