Rush Decision

That Friday, he called up and asked: "Baby, still remember that I told you this week there is a Bridal Fair at Mid Valley?" I wonder why he suddenly so interested in this kind of fair as I think he never think about our wedding before.

Feeling weired yet I said yes. There was suddenly a heavy down pour at the evening and I suggested to cancel the plan as I told him that no hurry to visit this kind of fair as we do not know when is our wedding day and we never planned of it but yet he insisted.

When we were there, there was not much ppl. We went inside and looked around. I pointed at one big poster saying: " Baby (this is how we address each other) , see there are Bridal Studio from Taiwan & Hong Kong!" I am so excited, in fact I told him long time ago that I wish to go to Taiwan for Pre-Wedding photo shooting + Pre- Honeymoon., and he always answer "See how first, our house going to be ready, have to spend a lot of money for renovation!" Haha, this is him, my dear baby, whenever come to money, his face will twist.

When we by passed the counter, 2 girls came to approach us: " 嗨,先生小姐您好!过来看看我们家的婚纱照吧, "非常台北",有听过吗?!" We looked at each other for a second and sat down at a round table. Well, we like the style and angle of shooting of their photographer. Of course, we like the scenery in Taiwan- 淡水,渔人码头,熏衣草园....etc.

We told them that the type of photograph style and effect we like. Then, here come the most interesting part. The package detail! They asked us how many poses we like, how many gowns we want, this and that but we have totally no idea as we were both mentally not well prepared for that, but I just acted like I am that kind of expert. As you guys know, I am a buyer and I will never be scared of that kind of situation. I question them back: how many poses you can offer?

I just bargained "kau kau" with them though I am not interested to sign up. After the bargaining session, we come out with a conclusion on the package detail:

We agreed on the above package and asked the lady boss to quote us the price.

"我现在给你们一个包你们满意的价钱!" said the lady boss! She writes the price on a piece of paper and told us not to read out. (I guess what she want to show us by doing this is that the price is very attractive).

RM3XXX.

Oh, not bad, i mumble inside my heart. However, due to my job spirit , I can't stop to bargain a better price, I don't know why, in fact I am not ready to sign up any package! He just looked at me and let me do the job!

Finally, she offered RM2XXX. Good deal and he agreed! However, she insisted us to pay for the deposit while we are not ready, we told them our wedding day will be on someday in 2010 but she said there is no expiry date for the package.

We struggle very much and afraid that there is no more good deal like this in future! (Oh, photo Shooting in Taiwan only RM2XXX??Make no difference with Malaysia package price On the other hand, we afraid we have made the decision too rush and will regret one day! After 3 hours negotiation and chit chatting, we still couldn't make any decision! The boss (should be son of the boss, 老板的仔)Ray, come to approach us and said: " You guys pay the deposit now, if after doing some thinking, you guys not satisfied, I'll return the deposit to you!"

With his word, baby immediately agreed and pay for the deposit. I understand my dear type, he always told me that if little money can buy the knowledge of a person character, he won't mind!
