hi nelle,

wow...earning passive income for luxury..not bad!
But if one day u decided to move to ur own house, and ur house already been stayed by so many people before, wun u feel uncomfy? And if u decided to sell away the current and purchase another flat, the chances will be lower already...

morning girls,

cindee,
the balloting, I have 3 place in mind:
bukit batok, bedok and AMK.

my fh house is at hougang, quite near AMK. and the main thing is the house march 2006 then will be completed. If we able to get the house, timing wld be just nice.=) I'm getting the 4-rm flat. 5rm too ex!....actually BTO flats are much cheaper...too bad, their location are not ideal.

Anyway, the applicants increases everyday..think the chances super low man..and we are not under any priority scheme..
 
Hi KSBride

I think you will have priority as I assume this is the 1st flat? Furthermore if you choose AMK, it is near Hougagng, therefore increasing the chances. If we get it, we'll have chance to bump into each other! :p

hi nelle,

but during the process of application, they'll prompt if we are under any of the prority scheme listed...and we doesnt belong to any. think those first child married ppl have higher chance.

yaa...we might be neighbours...haha
 
Hi all

Good evening,
See that you guys have been chatting on the balloting exercise, anybody went for the one in bedok...
I have been surfing the web quite alot to find out more on the wedding packages, divine couture's gowns are a beauty, i got a reply on the package but it looks vague, so going down this weekend.
bel
 
hi belinda..welcome. This is ur first post ne!

Saw bedok got the highest application for the 4-room...duno izzit coz of the location, or the price is cheaper compare to others..

Bedok was oso one of my choice...but think its too far from me and my FH parents..

Racherlle oso aiming divine couture gowns..mayb both of u can give opinions to each other...=)
 
hey KS

we decided not to apply for the balloting...cos we have been so busy...and i dun feel comfortable applying for it if i dun even hv the chance to see the showflats...now just wait for the next one loh...sighz...juz hope next rd got redhill and queenstown
 
Hi everyone,

I'm new here and have been surfing this website recently.

anyone ballotted for Bukit Batok, we have viewed the sample units and are rather pleased with it though it 10 mins walk from Bukit Gombak MRT.

Me & my FH are planning our ROM in May 2005 and AD in 2006, now I m scouting for information. Looking for ideas for ROM venues, want to have a memorable one.
 
hi belinda and jolene!
welcome to this thread!
happy.gif

hey jolene!
have u decided on the date for your ROM in 2005? i'm planning both my ROM & AD in May 2006!
happy.gif
 
Hi Cindee & Jolene,

I 've went to view the show flats and sample units at Bedok, though I applied at AMK.

The show flats are really nice. I prefer the 4-room actually. Duno izzit because of the way they design the show flats or what...Find the 4-room is enuff for a young couple...small but very cosy and easy to maintain. The 5-room on the other hand is bigger, but the way the show flat is designed, me and FH still prefer the 4-room wan. Hence we thinking, it might be the way u design ur house.

We also went to view the flats at AMK. Its still building...nearby have ,market, hawker centres, coffeeshops and many provision shops. Opposite the flats is Bishan Park. Location wise, I can say its really good compared to the Fernvale Grove.

Cindee, if u dun have the time to view the show flats, u can view it at:
http://www.hdb.gov.sg/hdbvsf/eaap006p.nsf/virtual.html
 
hey KS

thanks...wah u are rite...they sure look nice and cosy...too bad i dun hv the chance to go down and take alook at those at BB myself.

huh? at AMK...opp is bishan park?? then get to see greenery everyday loh...wow...i also wan...sighz...but we 2 really busy until dun know like wat...have been sleeping at 2-3plus...some days i dun even sleep at all...bf also busy with his work...he sleeps at 4am...wakes at 8am...urgh...cant wait for nov to be over...
 
Hi Racherlle,

I'm planning my ROM in MAy 2005 and tentatively AD in June 2006. Now looking for venues for my ROM event.

Hi Cindee & KSBride,

BB only has 5 rm available. The sizes of the units are 110 and 118 sqm. me & my FH actually thot of applying for 4 rm but dun have so got no choice lor. anyway, his parents staying in BB as well.

Me didn't have a chance to go view the show flats in Bedok leh. Is it nicely renovated?
 
hi everyone,

i am new here and need some advices on customery+rom+ad on the same day. was thinking of having it in 2006 & outdoor event hopefully at rasa sentosa =)

not too sure if i can have it at palawan beach, but guess will have to arrange catering myself etc. which is more complicated?
 
Hi racherlle,

I have quotes from Raffles Hotel and Sheraton Towers. WIll contact Altivo Bar soon. Still thinking of other venues in the mean time.

Oops..forget to tell u, my ROM date is tentatively decided on 20 May 2005 though. It's not a weekend so still contemplating.
 
Hi sleepysleep...

Customary+Rom+AD+outdoor?
Not really a problem as long as you planned carefully and of course as your parents and guests don't mind attending an outdoor event.
 
hi sleepysleep

all events on the same day??!! that's very tiring, and tiredness will show on pics leh. then bride not so pretty..:p

you can try calling sdc (sentosa development corp) for the sales person to show you around the place. don't forget costs like tentage, lights, fans, furniture, flower deco, stage, stage carpet, caterer, transport logistics for guests etc. have to factor in. It defintely will cost alot to have an outdoor event. And chances are, guests' ang pao not so much, cos people's perception is that they will fork out more for posh places.

If the beach can be 'rented', you need to book it at least 1 or 2 days before the AD for setting up and 1 or 2 days to 'tear' down, therefore sdc will prob charge you 5 days of rental.

hope the info helps.

hi cutepigs =)
yup will need to plan carefully and let our parents read our proposal hehe =P

hi nelle =)
woh! might charge me 5 days of rental! that's will cost a bomb! will surf their website for more information now hehe =))

1.2 i will need to get his consent before filing of notice & booking of rom thru e-filing correct?
1.3 how many days/months in advance can i find him to get his consent?

2.1 which of the following should i do 1st? filing of notice or booking of rom date thru e-filing?
2.2 can filing of notice and booking of rom date thru e-filing to be done on the same day? let's say both 3 mths in advance of my preference rom date?

3. what should i type in the outdoor venue? like rasa sentosa?

4. is there any print screen where i can see the details needed for each steps for e-filing? currently i can only to get to view detail information for step 1 & 2 out of the 5 steps.

hi sleepy..

happy.gif


regarding abt the details of the documentation for the ROM procedures.. tink u might wan to go under ROM & Solemnisation thread and see whether anyone can help u w tat.. i've no idea too!
happy.gif
but tink it's better for u to fix your venue before calling the JP.. so that he can hav a better idea of where..
happy.gif
 
wah KS and Jolene

just went onto HDB website to see the no of applications received...wah..most of the area is like overly booked...bedok is wow...i better tell my parents not to sell our place at bedok manz...hehhe...considering ours so near interchange...
 
hi racherlle,

can u recommend any coordinator for rasa sentosa & beaufort? so i can email them for more information and maybe can make some arrangement to go down to have a look with the coordinator there.
thanx thanx =)))
 
hi sleepysleep..

i'm actually waiting for their wedding shows before signing up.. more freebies..

hmm tink that Rasa will only have their wedding show in March 2005.. as for Beaufort.. dun tink they have any plans as yet..
 
Hi Jolene,

Your quotations are for your ROM only or AD as well?

I'm starting to look up for hotels as well too, need to start planning...how excited.
 
Hi Ling,

My quotations from both Raffles n Sheraton are ROM packages only. I m still looking ard. My good fren is helping me to find out packages from Marriot poolside too. will let you again probably next week.

Have you got any quotations yet?
 
Hi Jolene,

I'm intending to have my AD and ROM together. Most of the hotels are not yet open for booking for Yr 2006, so I have only the reference for Yr 2005.

How is your ROM package at Raffles? I love Marriott, have wrote to them, but no replies as yet leh, on the dinner package.
 
Hi Ling,

For Raffles, they have given me packages on their buffet lunch n dinner for my event to be held at the Lawn. I haven't actually talk to them yet, just some quotes through email.

If you are also interested, I can email you. ;)
 
Hi Sleepy,

If you really want David Loh as your JP, You can go down to Tampiness CC at Blk 866 to take his Consent form with Mr Loh signerture.

Just fill up the form and submeit to the ROm during the collection of Cert. I forgot his number liao. try to find if have I will pass it to you.

He is a very nice guy. He make my ROM like Wedding.

1st now you have to go to ROM wed site to apply for the date and venue. If you dun ve the actually venue you can just briefly put Hotel. If you need to amend on the venue there will be a charge of $15.00 if I am not wrong.

As for David Loh, you need not let him knoe the actual venue until 1 week before you special day.

He will also called you up to ask.

Book him early, he is very hot cake. Hee....
 
woh! thanx serene =))

oh no need to inform him abt the venue? so he's ok for outdoor rom? heeee

wooh! think i gotta contact him soon! hehee see other thread, alot ppl also say he's a very gd jp hehe..
 
hi gals
i need to look for someone who can choose ad date for me without tong shu.
where did you gals go to?
can recommend place and cost?
thks.
 
hi gals,

can i join in the chat?? i had already planned my AD to be on dec 2005, but my brother last min want to hold his in nov2005.. so i have no choice but to push back till 2006.. most prob will be in mid 2006.. u gals had ur date already??
 
Hi blur blur,

I'm in the same boat as you. Will probably have my AD either 2nd or 3rd quarter of 2006.
It's only end 2004 so was wondering whether it's still too early to start things? I mean, I've only gone to one bridal show and bought 3 bridal magazines. Shortlisted a few venues (most haven't opened the dates for 2006 yet), photographers and florists. Have you started on anything yet?
 
hi diminished, i had actually done a lot of research on many things... cos our initial plan is to hold it in dec 2005... however, a lot of research but all not confirm yet.. only cofirm ROM to be mid next year..
 


Hi Sleepy,

I did not tell him the venue until last min, then I confirm with him.

He will then called you up to check again when the date is nearer. I dunno if he will give you his HP num. I got his num becos he is my aunt's fren.

If you got difficuities to get him. Let me know, I see I still can get his number for you. If not go to the Tampines CC. The pple there may help you on this.

He is also very special in the way that he will bring his own stuff to deco the table for you. He will also bring his own camera so after the ceremony He will take photo with the new couple.

He will display all his photo in the newly build CC next to Blk 866 soon. So if you ask him to be ur JP then ur photo will be display there.
