Hi Smurfy,

I think your hair is fine... probably you are not used to seeing yourself in a different hairstyle =)

Nope... my bridal studio don't require me to top up for calla lilies.

Hi Mee Mee... why don't you bring your EG to another dressmaker or another BS and see if they can salvage the situation? Think will be much cheaper than if you need to re-do the whole gown.

Hi Ocean,

I also went Sentosa for my PS.

Everything goes went smoothly, took 70% outdoor, 30% indoor of photos. My photographer was very nice to allow my colleague to tag along to take pixs for me, of course all these were pre-arranged. I had to show him my digi cam b4 he said yes, of course cannot allow us to jepardised their rice bowl lah.

What if we have high end camera, then end up choosing very little photos, not beneficial to them mah! I went 4 locations inside sentosa namely, old warehouse, the chapel, big tree and tg. beach. Even had time to change into casual....haaaa! Anyway I am glad over. I only bought ampoulse as after putting on mascara my eyes felt heavy oredi...didn't want to have fake eyelashes. Ampoulse cost me $25 but works wonder for my makeup, I don't have to touch up too.

Hi Rocher,

Welcome to join in the thread. Yours is 2 days earlier than mine. : )

Marriott is indeed nice. Actually wanna to take there but becos of budget wise, eventually have to give up this idea. I'm a Pan Pac bride.

Have you sign up your bridal package yet? I'm a Divine bride.

 

[doremon]

[happybride]

i am interested in ur candles, but dun noe when to give them out...
ROM at ROM then lunch recept.
AD only buffet lunch at in law's place.

Can give me some ideas. : )
thx

 

[chinadoll2802]

Hi ladies

Do u ladies wan to arrange to meet up?

so that we can all share our ideas and contacts

 

[rocher_ho]

Hi Yvonne,

thanks for welcoming me

... Hehe, so urs on a Sunday.
So u took up the Ocean ballroom package? Cos I was very interested and wanted to take up this package as well.. but I was too late and the date I wanted was taken up by someone liao. Very sad...then have to source for other hotels lor... So choose Marriott cos its our second choice, but it was much expensive than our budget. But in the end gave in cos of the location and the ballroom.

I have yet to sign up any package... still looking ard. Since my banquet has exceed our budget so maybe I will go to JB to look for my bridal package. Actually, that time I was in JB and I went to Divine couture to take a look, but too bad by the time I reached there, the shop has closed for the day... but I saw from the glass window that the gowns are quite nice, not those taiwanese style that most JB bridal shop have. But I think they dun have their own studio and photographer, they are getting someone to do it, so it may not be so good....How much is ur package?

Btw, check with you... since ur AD is in Nov, so when do u plan to take ur PS?

Hi,

Just like to share that my AD is on 23 Sep 04, same as Gerlynn. My AD will be at Furama and my bridal shop is Flamingo Bridal.

Gerlynn, have you booked your hotel? I have sourced around for many hotels like GCW, Marriot, Regent and they are all booked on our AD. So settled for Furama but worry can't cover cos pple will think that it's an old hotel.
Have you booked your bridal package, your car/chauffer and AD photographer?
