Getting Married in Korea (timeline)
Just to give an idea of when things happened for us. I know it can vary a little based on what kind of wedding you're having. Personally, I think everything in Korea is generally a little last minute. I don't know why we can't just plan things ahead of time. Throughout the whole wedding planning process, I always felt like I would have liked something to happen at least a couple weeks earlier than it did.

Getting Married in Korea Pt.10 (when things go really, REALLY wrong)
The day before we left for Hong Kong, my husband called our venue to check on a few things since we hadn't heard anything yet. This was 3 weeks before the wedding. He had tried calling a few times before, but the manager didn't answer his calls. She later said she had his number saved in her phone, so, if he had called, she would have answered..hm somebody is not telling the truth here.
Long story short, she finally answered and was surprised to realize that our wedding was scheduled for 5:30pm, the same time as ANOTHER wedding. She double booked us. She also didn't have a copy of our contract which was from October 31st. My husband sent me a message calmly telling me this and asked me to send a copy of the contract to him to verify that the time was indeed 5:30. At this point, we figured everything was fine because our contract would override the other couple, who must have booked after us. However, we were told that we could just still have both weddings AT THE SAME TIME. We had picked this type of place specifically to be the only wedding, unlike the typical wedding hall.

Getting Married in Korea Pt.9 (bachelorette!)
My friends like to travel. Almost as soon as a wedding date was decided on, we started talking about taking a trip to a nearby country. Then we all went out separate ways for Christmas. When we came back, we had ALL told our families that we would be going to Hong Kong for the bachelorette party. Now, we had to make it happen. We got cheap tickets on Hong Kong Express, 170,000 won round trip! We left on a Friday night, were delayed 2 hours on the runway, and came back Sunday night, delayed 1 hour in the airport. HK Express advertises it's 80% on-time lol but you get what you pay for. It was worth every penny!
