nope i din pay a single cent yet. as long as no one book for that date, i'm safe. I told them I'll meet up wif them next quarter since my AD is in Dec 05, long way to go. They says it's ok. I double confirm wif them that they MUST call me b4 letting go my booking to others. I heard some says PP did not call them & cancel their bookings....

Hi All,
I am new around here, saw your previous threads and hope to join in as well to learn more. I am a blur blur bride-to-be. My AD is confirmed at Sheraton Towers, BS with Santiago@bugis and love nest at Jurong West, ROM in May 04. With all these going on all at the same time... I am pretty ....... blur. Do give me advices, I really need them.

Hi Claire,
Jan 05 is still a long time away, so don't worry too much, still got a lot of time. I also one of the less kiasu ones in this thread. hehe...
I've only settled BS and hotel.
You having a reception for ROM also? Choosing wedding bands is very FUN!! Goldheart is having a sale now. I'm very excited to choose my bands too, but too bad it won't be until July.... You can check out www.theknot.com for WG/EG design ideas. They have some really really nice ones!

Hi Leeds,
Thanks for the hyperlink. I will check it out.
I know 2 Jan is still sometime away. But perhaps I looked too relax, some of my friends and colleagues keep harassing me, until I panic now
hahah. When is your AD?
I like some of Goldheart designs very much. But I was told by the salesperson that they dont have discount for wedding bands.
I havent decide if I want to hold a reception for ROM, cos my customary is just early next year. Still considering.

Hi jellytots,

So what are u going to do abt ur BS?
Hi karen,
I resent the email on Hotel Intercon, hope u received it. Regarding the BS stuff, I think $3k to $4k can get what u want.. dun worries.. unless u are looking at those ultra brands like Tan Yoong or Bridal Veil.
I think the differences between mine and jitpong is I have more 15" and 4R photos.. etc

Hi Claire
Welcome to this thread. No worries, most of us are blur too that why we are here to share and take advise. Oh ya we have a chart in this thread showing our details:ROM date, AD, BS, PS, Banquet venue. Icy will help us update...she the genius in coming out with his chart.
Hi Cookies gals
They told me will be ready in a month time after taking measurement. I wanted it to be ready for my PS in Oct, so I tell them I want it in Sep, they tell me to go for measurement in Aug.
No lah dun have good skills leh...in my Everbliss thread, almost all brides get similar things, only different is the number of photos we get.
Hi Josie
So fast...wow so there are more pple who are more kiasu than us..booked in advance for more than one & half year. Guess you have to attend the wedding show, they will have more perks during show. Did you buy the lastest Her World Bride, they feature which hotel are having show.
i have a dog at home too...it a silky terrier..he has been with us since 5 years ago.
Hey ssmilezz
You beta start browsing around...Josie's AD in Oct but the slot already taken up for banquet.
Yo...found a kaki...same as you...inherited the habit from my mum...i am already thinking 3 months b4 i shift in...i am going to scrub my room and the commom bathroom...my FBIL not married yet mah..so still staying in the same house lor...
Hi Matthew
I thk PS is 3 months before AD. My AD feb 05, PS in Oct. Some even have to go much earlier as BS is usually very busy year end.

Hi Claire,
My wedding is 9 Jan. Yah I saw some of the eternity rings in Goldheart really really nice! Actually thats what I was told by the salesperson also, no discount for wedding bands. Doesn't make sense hor... They know wedding is once in a lifetime, so want to make us spend spend spend! Hmph!
Have fun choosing your bands and let me know what you decide on!
I also haven't decided when to ROM and whether going to have reception or not. Did you choose a special date for the ROM? Btw, do I have to book the date way in advance?

Hi Leeds,
The ring hor!! how to describe!! abit huh,, abit like the Bvlgari B.zero1 ring,, but instead of the "Bvlgari" wordings,, is was replaced with small little dots of diamonds!!
and the fun thing is that if u place 2 rings near each other,, they will stick it up like magnets!!

Whoops, I realised that I am supposed to share some info with all too ...
Not ROMing ... will be doing my solemnisation on AD, which is 19th March 2005. Dinner venue is likely to be the Hyatt, have given them verbal confirmation, just need to go down to pay deposit. Am currently shopping for BS and PS. Not sure if I want to take the PS that comes with the BS package or go look for some other PS

jiptong and manjong ,
PS should be six month before your AD ...cos sometime they need more time to process your photos...if it is a peak period ...they will get problem doing out your photos.
I did come over a bride from the thread ...she got her photos onli one nite before your AD .
So better to be kaisu than sorry .....!

Hi Icy, thanks, got it.
Hi All,
Will try go walking 3 times a week...cannot run, get chest muscle aches easily, got serious sinus problems since young. Hope to be able to lose 1 kg a month and maintain . Is it more effective to get a trainer to work out the arms, tummy, and thighs compared to just running/aerobics?
Did not actually consider to look for a bridal package so soon as thot should slim down first then got more confidence to try on gowns. But seems that most here are sourcing and confirming both the venue and BS now. Better go do more research..

Hi dinah,
I tok to Juliana, she seemed quite tired and busy but I think she is quite ok.
Hi josie,
I think more or less the package is there, just ask for more people for food tasting, free projector. I booked both ballroom first, still dunno which one I want. I will have to go down again on sat to see actual setup. Just now there is meetings going on.. so cant really see at all at Ocean. But i like pacific ballroom a lot, very nice ceiling and carpet.. Ocean on the first impression ceiling very low.. but heard some BTB says after seting up it looks better.
I think i know someone from other thread who book that date. heehee
Hi jiptong and manjong ,
I agree with josie, PS 6 mths before better. moreover certain hotels like pan pac will want ur photos to do signature poster. And u can have the option of posting photos on website and place the url in the invitation card.. or printing additional inserts with photos and programme behind.
Hi jitpong,
it is like even after upgrading the menu for ocean.. it is still cheaper then pacific by abt $100 per table.. it is like paying more for the venue.. so I just dunno what to do.. really like pacific a lot.. ocean ballroom first impression.. see low ceiling.. feel like not so grand.. so all the good and bad pts on both rooms.

hi josie,
yeah i know 50 tables plus is quite a bit .... and like you i am the eldest only daughter and my FH is only son (not child, thank goodness) ... and we're both first in our families to start down this path, so it's really not much choice on that front, in terms of size.
yah i can understand abt budgetting part - you know, why don't you talk to the hyatt, where i am doing my dinner. their weekend rate is 868 nett ... weekday and sunday is lower i think ... and honestly i thought this was quite a good deal cos there wasn't the additional triple plus tax, so easier to calculate. also the people there are quite good to talk to ... and flexible.
i also do have other quotations ... let me know if you want them

Hi Leeds,
Yalor, the pair of rings that I saw from Goldheart belongs to the Eternity range. Still pondering whether to spend so much or not on rings. Then again its a lifetime thing. We should get something that we like right? hehehehe Before that I have been to many places to search for rings... Lee Hwa Fairy Inc etc. Oh fairy inc has very nice wedding bands. Just that I fancy Goldheart's particular range more.
No particular date for my ROM. Chosen by my MIL. I am quite easy going with all these. But if you have certain special dates, good to book early. This year seems like a good year to ROM... many people rushing to book dates. Book online lar... very convenient.
Hi cutiebear: I know which pair you are talking abt
... its very cute pair of rings. If you still want to look around... can recommend fairy inc... got very nice designs and they customise for you.. but then the pair you saw are really sweet ...
I have no idea what to use (material) for my WG or what I want for my EG. Guess thats what they BS's consultant are for.. hehehhe .. .to advise me on all these...

hi icy,
lucky you ... and lucky the rest of you who managed to secure pan pac
i was initially also thinking of taking up pan pac ... and the pacific ballroom was available for my AD, but i was not very happy with their banquet sales people ... so in the end, i chose to go with hyatt (my 2nd choice)

Hi everyone,
Thanks for making me feel so at ease. My AD is on 2 Jan 04.
I have spoken with Johnny before... cos pan pac has got good deals and everyone is going for it... he was not really very friendly. Can understand how Dinah felt...
Hi Sweet.. my ROM is on 22 May.

Hello everyone!!
Welcome Dinah ~ hee...i see you have been posting around looking for BS in the forum. Hope u manage to find one soon yah? What's your budget like? Have you been to any BS yet?
Icy ~ Hey..take it easy alright? Hmm...well if it's still within your budget and your FH is also agreeable, then go ahead to take Panpac then. I can see you're really keen on the location lor.. how abt the food wise? any difference? which is better?
Karen ~ I am working with a personal trainer now once a week. I'd say it's very effective but super expensive. I think if you are on a tight dateline and want to achieve the best results, worth the "investment". But once a week with a trainer is not sufficient, i still go to the gym/classes another time on my own and do my own basic exercises at home. I also have sinus, have been take Vit C 1000mg for quite some time and watching my diet. Seems to help leh....
Oh yah, since i started with my trainer 8 weeks back, the major changes would be my tummy area. It's gone..heheee..now much flatter than before (but no 6 pack kind lar..). Also the waist is definately more defined. I am happy with what i've achieved so far and will continue to "tong".
Jitpong ~ yo! good to know we are so particular abt our cleanliness. My FH's sis (not married) is also staying together lor..but luckily, she's quite neat. hahaa.... I'm not having a dinner! So no need to book any dinner venues mah....i just need to confirm with the church maybe 1 year to 6 months ahead of time.
Claire ~ hey!! i think u are the earliest 05 bride!! 2 Jan right?? Icy, am i right?
Starz ~ yoo hooo...are you around? Wondering how your first fitting went.....
Hey everyone ~ can tell me roughly when is usually the busiest period for BS? I'm quite blur...don't even know when is a good or bad month for marriages...not so pan tang lar..

I already ROM-ed 5 yrs ago...
U think it's appropriate for me to politely "ask" for another ring from hb?
I've been eyeing the eternity rings tooooooo!! Question! Does it only stick to the one it's meant to stick to? OR does it stick to any other eternity rings like magnets?
Hi Claire,
Dont need to panick! Actually leeds and me are less prepared than the other girls here.. So join the club! eheheh!

yes the number of tables are really on the high side ... FH and i were initially quite concerned because of size, we were quite limited in the places that we can use to hold the dinner .... and given that our chosen date is a weekend, we knew it was going to be expensive
but in the end i have decided to go with the hyatt, as their weekend rates were $868 nett ... no tax involved, so that made budgeting much easier, cos a friend in the hotel industry did tell me that the triple tax adds up to about 17% additional. and furthermore, hyatt people were really nice and easy to work with - i wanted to take out certain items and what they did was to give me additional other things like extra barrel of beer etc.
FH and i are going down to make the deposit sometime next week

hi ssmilezz,
normally the 'bad' timing for weddings is during qing ming period .... and of course hungry ghost festival
at one stage FH and i were joking that maybe we should do AD then .. cos since a number of people pan-tang, maybe we can get good rate
hehehehe
but my parents are rather pan-tang .... in fact they went to see feng-shui man with our birthdates (in the chinese calendar) and time of birth to get a good date for our AD

hey dinah~
Yah, have to do a lot of research right?
Remember to make appointment if you are going on weekends yah? I think duffybuff is going to J & C today. Maybe she can update us tommorow on her visit.
I am also interested in Dang & Sil. hheee....ya ya, my FH also leaves it to me. His only comment is..."not too cheena pls...." both of us don't look too chinese and we don't like taking pics! hahaa We are also more comfortable in conversing with English so i think we need to find someone that we can "click".
Else may have communication problems which can be very frustrating!
