    Four Seasons Hotel

    I have to say their service has been excellent! My wedding is in 4 months and I'm sure everything will be perfect. Too bad we still haven't decided on the menu but they have a new chef so... hopefully can find a menu that satisfy everyone. Tansy, I forget when is your AD? Must be soon right?

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Bubblepearl, FS is Four Seasons. I'm having my wedding banquet there. Viv, Unfortunately the Four Seasons is notorious for not giving out perks or being willing to negotiate for anything. I've already managed to negotiate for some things which makes me more fortunate than most FS...

    Any Brides whose HTB is 'Ang Mo'?

    I'll be visiting in June to meet up with my wedding planner, have makeup trials etc. Everything is almost done. Now its just a matter of waiting! The hardest part! lol. That and trying to keep in shape for my dress... that is the worst part. I'm so anxious all I want to do is eat all the...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Lys, Yes that's the shop that I am considering. The plating fee for FS is $3 per person. I don't know if I'll go with Patisserie or with the hotel's cake. I haven't seen what the hotel can do.. but I'm willing to pay the price difference if Patisserie is substantially better. (The hotel...

    Any Brides whose HTB is 'Ang Mo'?

    Hi everyone! My turn to gate crash. I feel like I'm the only single one now. Everyone is happily married and trying for babies already! Anyway, the expat chat board had a HUGE discussion about the dual citizen issue and the answer is: The child can hold dual citizenship until the...

    Four Seasons Hotel

    We've talked about where we'd like our honeymoon to be... but when it will be and where the money will come from is another thing!

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Bubblepearl, I'm actually getting my cake from Patisserie. Their style matches my own personal preferences and some of their cakes in their portfolio match some of the techniques I want for my own cake. That being said: We're going for a cake tasting so if its not so nice, we can change...

    Four Seasons Hotel

    I don't know what my final bill is going to be. We had to do ours ala carte so there's no bridal package that we can easily point to and say it costs this much. I think we're prolly gonna end up in the 30k range though. Its so hard, everyone wants the 'best' of everything and nobody wants to...

    Four Seasons Hotel

    I know exactly what you're saying.. I doubt we're going to make even 8k back. Where are you going for your honeymoon?

    Four Seasons Hotel

    I'm very curious what the average FS bride spends by the end of all this... without subtracting the ang paos. I know when my wedding planner first presented me with a budget for $60k (we have 12 tables only) I was ready to pass out! We've cut the budget a ton since then (barely...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Hi everyone! Here's a disclaimer I need to point out: When I said it took me 48 hours to make that cake, I didn't mean two days! I meant 48 hours spread over about 5 days. And as for the charges, those are what I would charge in <u>my country</u> as a <u>non-professional.</u> I put the...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Rae No worries! I love answering questions... especially if its something I have to look up cuz then I just further my skills! You can display the cake at the beginning and then take it back into the kitchen but: The hotel may not have the space to accomodate your cake in the fridge. The...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Hi rae I usually tell people 1kg per 15 guests. You can manage with 10 kg but you have to make sure its cut properly into small portions not the "healthy" full size birthday portion your Auntie would normally give you. Personally, I would probably get 12kg to be sure. But if there is a big...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Oh.. I'd also like to point out that its not necessarily true that people will charge you more just because you say the word "wedding" I make cakes (sculpted and wedding cakes) as a second job. (Not in Singapore so moderators please don't block my account) Even the most "simple" looking...

    A REAL WEDDING CAKE

    Hi maggie, I'm curious.. didn't you run out of cake with 400 guests? I know not everyone would want a slice but I think wedding cakes are a very personal thing. Some people are willing to spend the prices that Sue75 and I mentioned because they want something very elaborate and/or want...

    Sorry! My email is impossible! I send messages and it doesn't go thru and 'selects' which emails it feels like receiving. I was also away for the weekend so wasn't checking my email. Glad to see someone managed to post your message!

    Four Seasons Hotel

    Thanks everyone... I've been quoted anywhere from $1200 to $2500 for makeup/hair. Its a little mind boggling..I just didn't expect to spend so much on it. Sigh.. the price of weddings...

    Four Seasons Hotel

    Hi gals! Can I ask, does anybody know who their MUA is going to be? I need to search for one and I'm completely lost! I just want something simple, nothing too dramatic or artistic.
