[jann]

Morning!

ever, wah, the IT guys in ur co so busy to set up ur PC!?!!
Hey, u changing urs to 3 Jul!! haha.. so 3 of u gals on the same day!! Hey, do u know how to see if 10 Jul a good date, can help me see?? hehehe..

Btw, silver/Yvonne, heard that some flats at buangkok area is open for selection.. Got a friend's friend parents bot a house there, they got application form from HDB and after they submit, they're able to get keys in 3 months' time.. I dunno whether there's a dateline for this or not... This area is opp Hougang, not very accessible so i think that's why got flats available. Maybe u gals wanna call HDB to check out?

Jasmin,
True, Divine is famous for their low-back gowns. Personally from my own opinions of Kim, she is really approachable and professional when she talks to me. I only met her once during my appt with her. I did not meet up with the other 2 designers. But so far, in the divine thread, the 3 of them are fantastic. I have the package with me, if you want, juz give me your email address and I will forward it to you.

Tweetie,
You are most welcome.

dkny,
I bought the 3 bridal magazines. The style magazine is really thick. : )

Kite,
GCW has a total of 4 ballrooms. The grand ballroom located at level 4 which require a min of 35 tables. The waterfront and riverfront ballrooms located at level 2. Min requirement of tables of 20 for waterfront and max of 28. Min requirement of 15 tables and max of 22 for riverfront. Galleria ballroom requires a min of 10 tables and max of 16. If you are looking for class, grand ballroom is the one. High ceiling but price was quite expensive. Riverfront and waterfront ballrooms have low ceiling if you don't mind. Price was quite comfortable. Riverfront is pillarless while waterfront has 2 pillars. As for galleria ballroom, i have no idea how it look like. Hope this does help you. You should went down to take a look at it.

Good morning ladies

Welcome Anne! We will help u as much as we could

I finally confirm my date as 24 Oct (sun) and book my wedding banquet at OCC. Told my parents and they are ok and equally excited. Yeah! Bridal package to settle next.

Fenc, though u mention its a rat day but according to my master, is ok. It is picked based on our year of birth.

Cheers.

[fencnef]

yo pple..

happy mooncake festival to everyone in advance..

anyone going to chinese garden?? i'm going tonite hopefully it will not be raining and dampen our spirits..hee...

rabbitwsk..
other dan our year of births, our parents' horo played a part in the selection of the dates as well..

yvonne..
shirleen frm HOE advised us to find suitable shoes for all the costumes, WG, EG and kwa to save the inconvience..waaah...quite difficult leh..hehe..

peko..
no worries la!

probably you wanna consider make-to-measure gowns package..i took a MTM package, which is gowns are tailor made to ur preference..

anne..
nice to see ya around! will you be holding any banquet in singapore for ur friends here other frm ur hometown?

 

[overwhelmed]

Hi Yvonne,

psl email me your package at [email protected]... thanks a million!!

 

[fantasy]

Hi cubby,

I know exactly which one u are referring to. Me like that one too and is contemplating if I want Fred to do something similar for me. To be detachable so that can look like I have two gowns... keke... not too sure if it's possible. Got to look at the material that he's using.
That's one thing that I observe about him as well. When he's doing something, he takes it seriously and give full concentration. Good and bad and I hope that I will be getting such focus from him when my turn comes.
I definitely wont not prefer a designer who is always busy pushing for more sales for own benefits.

 

[fantasy]

Oh ya by the way this new issue of style magazine's already out. U gals may want to grab a copy as well. Only have time to flip through. Not bad, quite a lot of gowns featured.

 

[babestaurus]

Hi Ladies... im back!!!

Hmm... hw shd i begin? Why not u gals ask me qns... haa haa!

Me very tired cos can't sleep on the eve of my ROM! U noe la very stressed and excited... hee hee! My MU artist was at my place 7.30am... she did the make up 1st then hairdo. I dun quite like her make-up cos very unnatural and thick, hair let down cos i told u gals i wanna cover my mickey's ears... (will show u gals my pixs aft download, give me some time...)

Is so crowded at ROM, my guests were late cos no parking lots! Heard 100 over couples married y'day... can u imagine! Hilarion is so funny cos he took the shots so fast, all my frenz were making fun of him!!!

 

[jann]

hello Yvonne!!

Welcome back!! heheh.. Congrats once again on being a MRS liao!! hehe..
Only me here today leh.. Yan on course, Jul still busy, ever cant log in, silver is either resting at home or out for appt....

Wow, 100 over couples!!! When i had my ROM also very crowded, my friends were also late... That's why regretted holding it there somehow...

Hmm.. at least now u know how's the MU like. Maybe u can highlight to ur BS, or if not next time u tell ur MU artist to do wat u want, tell them wat colours u like etc etc..

So was ur photographer good? How many pics are taken?

And how's ur lunch recep? Food good? hehe..

Dun ask u too many qns at one go first lah, wait u blur! hehhe..

 

[babestaurus]

Hi Jan,
HG skills is quite prof cos he took the shots veri fast lik 5 secs... so at least we dun need to smile so long... hahaha! Food at MC was so-so cos is lunch n the food is not as sumptuous as the dinner.

Hi Silver & Yan,
Heard u gals are sick... do take care!!!

Btw Yan, i went Nail Couture n they actually make my 2 fingers bleed... so painful!!! French coating has got few layers so very thick n hard to dry. Me very CHOW LOR kena ruined n hv to redo the 2 fingers... hee hee!

Hi Ever,
How is new job? Colleagues n environment ok? So yr bro's gf seriously wanna take PP?

 

[jann]

Yvonne,
Most importantly is that u enjoyed ur day!

Where's nail couture? They cause ur finger to bleed?!?! Ouch!!! How come they so chow loh!!! How much did u pay? Mani and Pedi rite?

 

[mango78]

Hi fencnef,

Is abit difficult. Maybe i will ask the designer to give me some advise.
Falling sick.Having a bad flu.

 

[rabbitwsk]

Hi Fenc,

thanks for the advise. Our understanding is that there will be a postive boost for the person if it is her day. I have got a friend, the wedding date stated in the tong shu is not a good day for wedding but based on the horo and stuff, it is best for her. Well, I think there should be diff saying and different meaning to diff thing. We keep our faith with him.

Oh! Talk to my parents last nite and they all very excited. Only got to sleep at 2a.m..talk a lot hoh! Cfm for me, the taboo month range is one month bef and after.

Cheers

 

[mango78]

kite,

Karen, the sale manager serves me. She is friendly.
Have forwarded the package to you already.
Most probably will choose Divine. Divine does not have the other outlet. Only one located at mandarin shopping arcade. Of course their gowns are nice and beautiful.

Jasmin,
Have email to you already.

 

[kokopooh]

[babestaurus]

Hi Jan,
Yes I did enjyed my day... was very tiring aft tht! Hahaha...

Nail Couture is at Mandarin Singapore. I'm doing french mani&pedi for $45/= ONLY (promo price)...

 

[jann]

Wah Yvonne, that's quite cheap!
But is it a norm for manicurists to cause fingers to bleed? wah, can imagine, painful leh!

So now, u both will wait for the WIS at punggol/SK area is it? Think u can call HDB to check if they have flats available at this moment...

 

[oscarsem]

hai Yvonne
did you jus walk in to Divine to check up the package or make a appointment?
Did you manage to try the gowns?
can I have details of the package : [email protected].
I went in to GCW and had a bad experience..
Haven;t got time to try others bridal shop..
should be doing so only after my exams next month. will I be too late to prepare if I plan my wedding next year end , girls?

 

[fencnef]

hallo pple..

had a great lunch? i went to ikea's BK for lunch... v.hot i tink i'm more tanned nw oso after the Big Walk last sun..

rabbitwsk..
oh really? ic..happy to have the positive boost as it is my day..

yvonne..
u take care ya?? the weather is quite lousy lah lately..

kokopooh..
r u getting married on mooncake festival..??

so sweet...

 

[babestaurus]

Hi Jan,
We intend to try our luck on the recent BTO! Will be taking sengkang cos only SK got the existing units n the keys available.

I guess is quite norm to cause bleeding but is seriously painful even now my fingers stl hurts...ouch!!!

So i heard STYLE is so-so ya? Hmm... shd i buy anot?

Ever, wld be changing her wedding date to 3 July also... which means 3 of us on the same day... haahaa! Guess must be quite good on that day ya... heehee!

Oh, i was at Imperium last saturday for my frenz's wedding. The food is seriously quite nice but ambience so-so cos the place looks too complicated. I dun thk is worth the price lor...

 

[jann]

Yvonne, u mean there's actually existing flats for the current BTO and keys are available? Tot all is BTO and must wait like 4years before they complete construction?

Ya, style mag is so-so leh... mostly WG pics, EG not much...
So when will u start gown designs?

Ya, think 3 Jul is not bad, but coz last time i check thru net, i think it clashes with one of our animal sign, so didnt take loh...

Yeah, Imperium is not cheap, it's like hotel prices, i also think not so worth it... Might as well take hotel package altho food may not be as nice, but ambience much better loh i think..

Oh, next week, i'll be attending one wedding at Jul's hotel and another one at fullerton!! wow.. siong on my wallet!! hahhaaaa!!

 

[rabbitwsk]

Fenc,
Wow, eating happening food

Tonite I am going to HOE to book my Kua. Is urs the heavily embrio kua?

Kokopooh,
Really... urs mid autumn fes?

Cheers.

 

[mango78]

Hi fencnef,

Thanks! Will take care. Will go and see doctor after work. seem to be getting worse now.
Me love BK too! Having the voucher promotion. : )

 

[mango78]

oscar,
I made an appt with Divine. Is better to make appt with them cos they are quite busy. Did try their gowns. They will allow to try their off rack gowns. Will email you the package.
Should be alright. But i think you must book your banquet venue first as ppl now book their banquet venue quite early.

 

[fencnef]

yah loh..actuali wanna eat the food place at ikea upstairs..but too crowded la!! didnt get the BK coupons..regret..

rabbitwsk..
the kwa is the embross wan..are u referring this as being heavily embrio kwa?

 

[fairy]

[fencnef]

[babestaurus]

Hi garf,
Not sure izit good day anot but is 09-09-2003, a date which is easy for us to remember...haha!

Yeah lor! The manicurist used a tool to scrub off the skin around the nails then a scissors to pluck out the stubborn skin. Probably thts when my nails gets hurt......!!!

 

[fencnef]

i tink there're 2 types, the non 3D and the 3D...so i got the 3D wan..

which one are u planning to have?? i tink try as many as you can lah..eventually i got his feedback said dat the 3D one look nice on me loh..

 

[jann]

Wah Yvonne, sounds very painful leh!! ouch ouch!! I think i'll have to go thru this one day! coz i have dry skin around also... urghhhhh... gosh, i tot manicure is just merely painting the nails.. how innocent i am!!! hahhahaha!

 

[garf]

hey yvonne..

ic...dats strange...i had dat type of removal service at hollywood secrets but i didn't have any bleeding...its a very relaxing session and my nails didn't hurt...
probably ur skin is very dry izzit? hmm...

this is oso the first time dat i hear one gets bleeding from doing manicure leh.... .is dat the right way??

 

[garf]

oh yes on a 2nd thought, did ur manicurist inform u in advance dat your nails will bleed when she did dat??
