Wedding website for Jet & Xinying

Completed a simple wedding website for my gf last night. Am pretty proud of it. Nothing really over the top. Just using the trending styles like full image background image, flat UI and social media, to showcase her pretty wedding photos while achieving the aim to relay information on her wedding dinner.

Most of the photos are taken from unsplash.com, a site with free to use hires images. Will be adding more of her wedding photos when she gets her hands on them. (PS she just finished her photoshoot last Tuesday)

Homepage. Focus is on the slideshow of the three wedding photos that she currently have.

RSVP. I did this form using a Google Form. Here's the tutorial that is pretty useful http://morning.am/tutorials/how-to-style-google-forms/.

Venue. So wanted to do a full screen map. And there we have it.

Feeds. Social media is trending. So why not make use of it to collect all the well wishes and photos taken for this wedding? A page with feeds from Instagram and Twitter with the hashtag #jetxywedding.

Ohh.. I initially wanted to do a wordpress site or make use of the Dropbox hosting. But the problems faced for WP is that I do not have an existing domain or hosting and for Dropbox, I used up my bandwidth while doing my testing on the third browser. AMAZING huh... So I had resorted to a simple static website, on a free host, with all the free tools like the Google form, social media widgets, jQuery for the cool slideshows and my 3 days effort.

Hopefully my gf likes it.

A photo a day : Homecooked curry chicken

Today's big project. Curry Chicken. It's pretty easy though as the most difficult part is the sauce. Which... I used the ready made sauce from A1. Heehee.. End result isn't too bad.

Daddy was here to help me with the tap problem. Hubby was on leave made lunch for three. Healthy meal with zero oil. Hubby don't like porridge, so he had noodles instead

A photo a day : Homecooked dinner

Made dinner today. Broccoli, prawns, pork, soup. 

Lace Braid and Ladder Braid

For about 3 and a half hours, I was braiding and braiding. Trying out a few times to get the hang of it and also the final hairstyle required. The final hairstyle that we settled on was the Lace Braid with Ladder Braid. I like what I did. Luckily so did my sister.

This was the 2nd try. Braid till the middle of the head. Intended to do the same on the other side and tie then them at the back of the head. But it looks pretty plain from the front.

So we decided to use back the idea from the first trial. Braid from the right side to the left.

The braid is not really defined though. My first attempt braiding such complicated styles, with the help of the tutorial video on youtube.com. Here's the video I had referenced.
