Our ROM Journey ✨

Planning a ROM (Registry of Marriages) can feel overwhelming, but breaking it down into clear steps makes the process more manageable and enjoyable. From my experience, starting early—purchasing wedding bands a year before the big day—helped set a positive tone and reduce last-minute stress. One key tip is to book your venue and photographer months in advance, as popular places can get fully booked quickly. It’s also essential to remember that submission of the marriage application form with the solemniser’s approval must be done at least six months before the solemnisation date, so mark your calendar accordingly. In addition to formal tasks like booking caterers and printing materials, small personal touches such as DIY calendar gifts or handmade floral arrangements add a heartfelt charm to the day. I found shopping on platforms like TaoBao and Shopee cost-effective and convenient for unique wedding supplies. Lastly, engaging with communities via social hashtags like #ROMJourney or #RealTalk can provide support and answer practical questions.
