i got the vg from Pistis Studio. http://www.pistis.com.sg/main.html their package ranges from $500-$880 or so.. quite reasonable... cos some quoted me like $1200 -$5000 above!! its actually recommended by my photographer.... he has partner with them before... which is a good thing

wah heng ah, i last min decided to find a videographer and most places all fully booked or damn expensive.... lucky i found one thats available and reasonable!

ayukie which ballroom did u sign up? anglemara> thanks! 4 more days to go!

angelmara> reason why i chose reception hall to ACT1: 1) ACT1 has 3 tiers hence there are small steps in between the tiers... we got 7-8 tables of relatives so not so convenient for the old folks 2) if you take up the MAX capacity of ACT1, its a bit cramp... not much walking space in between...

Hi PSH, Belvedere ballroom is indeed nice... i had a chance to see the ballroom with a wedding decor... high ceiling and looks grand! just too bad we cant meet the capacity if not i would have chosen it....

PSH> whats the capacity u having? if you have around 25 tables....you can have many hotels to choose from.... MM is ok in terms of food... and i think thats one of the main factor.... also free flow beer and bottle of wine was attractive.... for the room.... i personally think that is nice...

hey girls just to share.... found a spa right in serangoon gardens... nice ambience... they have a couple package called BLISSFUL ROMANCE.... you get a private room with 2 massage beds.... Body Scrub with choice of scrub - 30min Choice of Body Massage - 60 min Aroma Jacuzzi - 30 min...

toysbabe> not sure about other hotels... but i was uncomfortable with the clause too... in the end i still sign up cos this is the only place that fits my needs for small pax.... i think the guests will be civilised enough during the dinner la...... if not ask your EMCEEs to have a friendly...

angelmara> for reception hall maximum capacity is around 18 tables.... not so sure about ACT 1.... I am having 17 tables + 1 extra I think for their Nirvana Weekend package range from $798+++ .. weekday is cheaper.... some of the perks include free flow beer 1 bottle of complimentary...

ayukie> maybe u can discuss with your family or in laws about it... i did that and the feed back from my in laws side was dun choose chicken rice even though its their signature dish.... u know some old folks are traditional, they might not appreciate having chicken rice in the menu :p

angelmara> i uploaded the pics of reception hall and act 1 here: the lighting was dimmed when i went to view... its not so dark.... also note that Reception Hall and ACT is catered for smaller capacity... http://s21.photobucket.com/albums/b297/waverine/Wedding%20Stuff/Meritus%20Mandarin/

Ayukie> dun see 8 course only... when i went for food tasting.... i was so full by the time the 6 dish came!

glenlyn> the sales person did mention to me that they have a few diff suites on diff level.. so i guess all depends on availability lor.... hope i do get the nicer suite ... but i think should be similar ... cos its all under REGENCY suites..... Ayukie> level 5 is RECEPTION HALL, i got...

ayukie> i am having my dinner at Reception Hall level 5. their wedding favors not alot of choices.... frankly not that nice... thats why i end up choosing the candle cos thats unique and presentable.... fruit cake and chocolate a bit boring....

sherlin> there is no bridal suite open for viewing... actually i also didnt get a chance to see the suite when i signed up. only last week... i requested my coordinator to show me the suite cos I will be having my gate crash there.... just nice there is a suite available to view...

ayukie. my solemisation right before the dinner (same day)... so thats why they gave me a complimentary room for the ROM process. the food is fantastic... hope the quality is same during my actual day... for wedding favors, they have other choices... like chocolates, key chain, phone...

Melissa I do not have this clause in my contract. I think thats because i signed up in April 2007. maybe you should double check on their renovation schedules for this year....

melissa, thanks! Hope you have a fun time preparing for your wedding! Its hectic but all worth it

melissa, you need to check on the terms and conditions when u sign up with RTC. If it states deposit paid are non-refundable there's nothing much u can do. but there are some places where they will refund you partial amount of the deposit. Why dun you speak with your cootdinator from RTC on it?
