Our first gown fitting appointment on 2nd April. Prior to the appointment, Debbie has been deligently surfing the net to check out various gown designs. Here is a good website to recommend :

Debbie has downloaded a number of gowns that she liked & brought it along during the first appointment to show the designer. We started at 2.30pm and ended at 7.30pm. It was a fun experience!
Based on the gown pictures, Geraldine, our designer know what Debbie likes and pulled out about 10 OTR(On-The-Rack) wedding gowns to try. However, Debbie couldn't find the ideal gown as she only liked a top portion of one gown & the bottom portion of another gown. Thus, we decided to go for MTM(Made-To-Measure) gown which is in our package. So Geraldine went on to draw the gown and Debbie continue to try the OTR evening gowns with the assistant from another
sophia staff. After trying out about 8 pieces of evening gown, Debbie decided to settle for a pink gown. Not too long later, Geraldine also showed Debbie the gown sketches & it matched about 90% of what Debbie has in mind. The picture on the right is sketched by Debbie before she go for the first fitting and Geraldine sketches looks similar to Debbie sketches but of coz hers more professionally done! Both of us are very impressed with Geraldine design! After we confirmed the design, it was sent overseas for the gown to be made.The next thing that kept us busy in April was our PMC (Pre-marital counseling) class from Church. It was a 6 weeks course but was extended to 7 weeks because there are a lot of interaction & sharing of experiences during the class. Overall, we do enjoy the session very much coz there are nice food & our counsellor has given us many good tips & interaction with fellow church mates who are also preparing for their wedding!
