    Marina Mandarin Singapore

    @ Siy Sorry to hear about your situation. I did have 03 and-pow box standby for my wedding. 01 for each side (bridegroom and bride) and then my coordinator had one spare with him (which the banquet manager passed to him) when the banquet manager saw that the 02 boxes were getting quite full...

    Marina Mandarin Singapore

    @ Starz: As their prices are quite reasonable, no trying out of their wines but they are still reasonable to let you buy at their discounted prices. I did not even try and just went with their recommendations and many of my frens also told me to go with Spannish wines...reply was quite...

    Cheryl: To each their own preference, if you think that high ballrooms are important, then go for those who have high ceilings...among your selected few, MM really have the lowest ceiling.... Rank your preference which will be your guide to your final selection (I can offer you some...

    Debbie...joos is right...they are very strict on Sat...my wedding is on Mon (which is a holiday) and they are fine with 35 tables min for Marina Ballroom...the only solution is that you have to upppp your menu to pay for the difference to cover the 40 tables min

    Hilton Hotel

    I do agree with joyjoy1 that there are so many unfortunate situations that happen in HDB flat, MRT or bus. Would you also consider moving house everytime there are any incidents in the block or not taking any public transport since there are accidents quite often?? The tabloids are making...

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    Starbright, I do agree with jitpong on the decor for MC. We were also worried of the white concept initially but later when we approach other hotels, they are also using the similar concept so it seems that this is the in-trend at the moment. Francis (our coordinator) did tell us to approach...

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    Hi ninkumput, The reason why Manadarin's thread is so hype up cos we believe it Manadarin's services and they have one of the best offers in comparision to other 5* hotels. Good idea for commission though...I believe some of the hotel's sales people do read this forum too...Any offer???

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    okipoki have to agree with jitpong. If yours is 35 tables, suggesting shifting to mandarin court as it is much bigger. For me, I also have 35 tables and immediately Francis told me to shift to Mandarin Court as Belvedere will be very cramp. I have seen 32 tables set up in Belvedere and it was...

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    Dear all, Saw the "hype" about Mr F. Have to agree with nanshee about Mr F as he is my coordinator. He is a very straightforward person who will tell you whether or not he is able to provide certain requests. I personally also prefer to deal with this type of person. He is also a very...

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    Jingles, Complain to the management, ask them to change your coordinator cos it seems that he is not in the right frame of mind to handle your wedding. If he can screw up your current contract, what about your actual day, better consider.... Who is your coordinator???

    Mandarin Orchard Singapore

    Hi all, I just confirmed with my coordinator...Actually, I already expected his response.... If you check carefully in the first offer, things like what carole mention: one night deluxe room (should be day room) and additional cards are not in the initial offer but is committed by the...
