Hi Gal,
Is good to start it early for wedding preparations so as you will have more than enough time for it. As for the banquet venue, it is advisable to book it slightly earlier like one to one and a half year earlier. Normally, december is quite a hot month, so book it earlier to prevent disappointment.
Is good to start doing some homework before finalising anything.

Hi silver,
Nowadays u always wake up so early. If u didn't have to go to office, what time will u get out of bed? *hee* Just curious...
Hmm... I think Yvonne & Yan are going too right? Actually, I'm not really sure where is Hotel New Otani.
Jan,
Yeah, we're like die-hard SBO fans. Just cannot resist!

Hi Evon,

Hi jamci,

Hi tinklebell,
yeah lor, didn't expect intercont to be that price range also. but then they give 2 nights in the shophouse suite. must have priced that in as well!
Hi Yvonne,
same for me, marriott is too expensive! Think will strike that off the list. Already for M Hotel's $800 per table, i scared will lose too much, as i confirm already will lose on relatives tables.
Need to cut loss!
A fren told me most ppl either give $60 or $80. So hopefully most will give at least $80 given that it's at a hotel (despite M Hotel not being very well-known). Actually i more or less set on M Hotel liao, just keeping my options open since i've still got time
So have you made any tentative bookings yet?
Hi gal,
Yes, it's good to plan early lor. Like Yvonne says, dec is quite a popular time to get married so if you have a date early, you can still afford to pick and choose
Actually my hubby was very 'cool' about getting a date! I forced him to go with me!

=) I can't agree more with Sneaky.
Since ROM, everybody says that we are very loving, and says that I got myself a good catch!
I'd be going to Bali later with family and hubby. Any girls going there? maybe can update u all when I'm back.
BTW, has anyone seen Tiffany's collection of jewellery? Haven't been there but going there to see jewellery for si dian jin when I come back. si dian jin has to be gold issit?
What is jia zhuang? given by bride's side or groom's side? pin jing is from groom to bride issit?

Hi Trixie,
Have not made any tentative booking yet. Still waiting for the wedding date to be fixed. Have ask "guan yin" to choose an auspicious date for us cos by the time waiting for the tong su to be out will be late Dec already.
Have selected 3 dates, but waiting for the best among of the three. One is on Tue, sat and sun.
Actually, I have shortlisted ST, Marriott, Oriental, Mandarin Singapore.
Quite like Marriott, but really have to make a difficult decision,cos I'm afraid that the loss will be great if I choose there. Will discuss this matter with my hubby. He is quite supportive with my ideas. He gave in to me alot of things, even though he felt that phototaking is much more worth while to spend more money on it.

liang court is the one near clarke quay and riverside walk. can take bus at the bus stop opposite penisula plaza. cant really remember the bus number, can check the directory listing at the bus stop.
if not, take the NEL and drop at clarke quay station and walk down from merchant court..

Hi pebbles,
Welcome back...haven't heard from you for a while now. Yes i am stuffing my face everyday with food....but actually i am a chicken rice person..i can eat chicken rice for dinner everyday. Hehehe....
I went to meet the girl with the albums yesterday...she brings the albums in from australia. I bought 2 albums from her...to slot in 4R pics..she has the black book ..kinda like a scrap book kind...that's quite nice...but photos has to be laminated first...or else will have lots of fingerprints on it.
Poox: So where is your new lovenest? Not sure if you will find this tip helpful...when i did my renovation last year...i cut out all the pics that i like from mags and paste them in a scrap book, sorted them according to kitchen, bedroom, living room, etc..this is much easier to explain my idea over to the contractor..and to reduce misunderstanding.
For my contractor, i used Prestige Image. They are average only...the contractor that i had was so so only...a lot of supervising is done on my part....but their carpenty and tiles laying is very good....they have good workmen but lousy contractors..and prices are quite reasonable. Hope this helps....i did quite a bit of homework on reno...so if you all need help...just shout for me..hehehehee....
Hope to hear from you all soon!

Kiki : Yup, FH briefly mentioned the figure.
Questy : Will check it out this weekend. Sigh as I browse around, more options came by leh... I've got a friend who could do floral decor. If this is the case, gotta do my DIY sums to see how liao...
Sneaky : Ya lor, it's a comfort on thoughts of a nurturing relationship. Also good to be put to trial in managing situations...
Mimosa : Wah Tiffany's collection as si dian jin ah
FH brought me there before he proposed to guage my preference last year, hehe a plot to test ring size too
. It'll be nice to have Tiffany's WB too but they are expensive for my budget. Tiffany carry contemporary design and it'll come up to a hefy sum for 4 items. Guess if your PILs are not particular, non gold items are just fine too.
I'm not very sure of the traditions, accordingly to my Mummy (modernised version lia)... Jia zhuang are given by bride's side whereas pin jing and si dian jin (for Teochews) is from the groom side. As to the contents and practices, it varies on expectations of PILs loh.

Hi Ever,
The package is $300, 120 prints...
.. when and where are you having your ROM?
Hi Jul,
First thing is to call up Beetle work first, check with kelvin if that day is available. If he say YES he is available. Then you make appointment with him and go to his studio and see the pic. You must see his pic then decide if you like his style
.. his place also quite easy to find.. just 5 - 7 min walk from Farrer Park MRT.

Hi karyinn, the 120 prints is in a CD-ROM or printed and put in album?? 10R?? sounds reasonable.... my ROM is in Nov 2003.... mostly likely holding it at a condo's function room...

Karyinn,

Hi Ever,
120 shoot is print in 4R. and put in an album and you will be given a CDROM. So you can go to any photo shop to do extra printing to give your friends and relatives
Hi Jul,
I think normally weekend the photographers are busy running "Show" hehe.. so they should prefer you seeing them weekdays
.. that's my guess only ..
