Sharon – Believe it baby.

Mei – right again, to profit from your wedding – is nothing sacred? Like I said, i’d like to see what is next. Which is why I wont dignify it with any links (but still want to bitch abt it lol)

Minishorts – words fail, eh?

I wouldn’t want to sponsor anyone’s wedding! I dunno, I just think it’s very tasteless to get people to give you freebies just because you’re a pro-blogger or throw that status around. (That’s why I don’t really like high-key celebrity weddings like that famous M’sian songstress.)

A wedding is not about sponsorship or PR, like Irene mentioned. It’s supposed to be solemn, life changing and sacred affair.

I thougth the wedding dinner (the main one) is paid for by the groom’s side of the family.

The bride’s family has a separate dinner before the above mentioned one and pays for that themselves.

Hey, just because I’m not famous … I didn’t get the email from this couple. But that’s ok. I will seek out their website and have a good laugh!

Not too long ago a couple who were working with TV3 had the station televise their wedding. Both were considered well-known enough to be minor celebrities, I guess.

But you know, it does appear incredibly crass to do something like that.

The real celebrities around the world are mostly trying to shun this kind intrusion into their personal lives! But I really don’t blame celebrities for accepting sponsored presents … I doubt they are solicited?

Soon, there will be a day when the bride has a big sign stuck on the back of her wedding gown: “Brought to you by Ah Mooi Bridal House”!!

I hope not to get invited to THAT wedding.

like Irene said, the going rate is now RM 80 – RM 100. I miss the RM30 days

Irene: And that’s why I reckon they won’t need my linkage. It will be interesting to see what they will do next after the wedding.

To a lot of people, infamy is better than sinking into oblivion.

I just checked my inbox, and they emailed me too!!

This is ridiculous.

In KL the angpau going rate is RM100 per person. Coz usually the dinner is in (1) a hotel, or (2) a Tai Thong restaurant. I would say minimum is RM80.

The whole scenario feels tasteless and crass to me. A wedding is not supposed to be about publicity and sponsorship and PR. It’s supposed to be a time of celebration shared with those nearest & dearest to you when you make a lifetime commitment to someone you love. Or maybe I am too naive and idealistic!

One hand: Donald Trump. Other hand: Couple of bloggers. Yes, I see the relation

And yes, you must admire their gall, if nothing else. Apparently blogging turns you into a celebrity overnight (even if you’re the only people who’ve heard of you).
