    Regent Singapore

    Oh... and 'exactly the same' is a very strong phrase. Care to post your sis' pictures of her in her EW (whatever that means)? Usually, designs within the same range can be similar, but I believe Michelle will not dish out something that is exactly the same.

    ANYONE HAS PACHELBEL CANON IN D?

    If you are using in for your wedding, you need to have the original. Most hotels won't play pirated/ripped music.

    No, I don't know who Regent's florist is. Sorry.

    Regent Singapore

    Hi sourlemon, Thanks. The Bentley was not rented. It was borrowed from a family friend. The food and service at Regent were all good. I think Regent has the best food I've tasted so far. I don't know how they did it, but the standard of the food on the actual day was quite close to the...

    Regent Singapore

    Evelyn is ok after you have signed the contract. Before you sign the contract, she's very defensive because she's probably worried that you might ask for more of this and that (which we all do). I find Regent to be very sticky about their package, and we had to do some heavy duty negotiating...

    Regent Singapore

    I had my wedding at the Regent. Overall, it was ok. The food was good. The staff were helpful... and the Jazz theme was beautiful. However, we did have a glitch. The hotel could not set up the projectors on time. They had a function before that and they had to rearrange everything for my...

    The video projector and montage is part of the 'amenities', which can be selected. You can select 3 amenities. Alternatively, you can pay $350 for it, if you want to reserve your 'amenities' for something else. Actually, seat covers is part of the 'amenities'. I thought that was complete...

    Regent Singapore

    I got a few perks because I will max out their place. However, their perks do not compare well with other hotels like Mandarin. Mandarin offered us all the perks before we even asked. Regent refused to give us an extra day in the suite, and we have to pay if we want an extra room overnight...

    Regent Singapore

    What I am really saying is, try to negotiate for something you can live with before you sign the contract... because you will have to bear the consequences.

    Regent Singapore

    The contract only says that if you request to extend the function timing, you have to pay extra. So, whatever you do, do not request to extend the function. ... and Chubbyrain. I know that a lot of MNCs have very harsh clauses, but that does not make it any more right. Also, not all the...

    Yes. I'm being held ransom by many parties.

    They refused to put in a clause stating the right to get a replacement in the contract.

    Hi Iluydia, I am trying to put the right to get a replacement in the contract. Hope they will agree.

    Regent Singapore

    Thanks everyone. I spoke with the coordinator again. We agreed that we will work with the minimum of 30 tables. That will bring the cancellation down quite a bit, closer to what I had in mind. Of course we will try to find replacements if we were to cancel. However, if we fail to find any, we...

    Regent Singapore

    I have many tables... that's the problem. My package is for Friday. I have to max out the ballroom because in-laws need many tables. If I cancel, for any reason, I'll be completely screwed. That's why I need to negotiate the clause. You can just imagine... 100% revenue of many tables equals much...

    I have no choice... It must be Friday 13 for us, because the elders have spoken. The next acceptable day is Jun 25, which has been fully booked all across Singapore (for our required banquet size).

    Regent Singapore

    Yes. It's not a win-win contract. They have the ballroom, and you don't. To a certain extent, they have the upper hand. However, if the contract is not something you can swallow, then be prepared to walk away. Just make sure the contract is something you can live with. If they take out...
