hmmm i'm actually having 2nd tots of holdin my banquet there already.. sigh
 
Hi angel,

you wait, there is news that there might just be another balloting exercise this yr and WIS as well. So you wait and see.

Hi Jolene,
yes lor yes lor, so happy leh.
 
hi gals...
been a long while since i dropped by.. so busy.
gd to see so many other jan gals.
i am really tardy. have booked nothing to date.
went to ask the rates of some hotels. i think a no of hotels hiked their rates significantly for 2006. so ridiculous. so we held back our bookings.. even hyatt is asking for >800 per table for wkday!!! that means can nvr break even???

cindy
i share the same ad with you. did you go to a geomancer for the day? i got my date from a geomancer.
wats x-zen?

blue gal
you can go get yr date from a geomancer if you are worried abt the rooster curse... that way it will be more accurate since such things really depend on your time of birth and parents birth years not just a single year so what is gd for one cld be bad for another.
 
Hi Anna,
The original date was choosen by a geomancer already. We'll go ahead with our plan since we have book the hotel and BS.

So which hotel and BS you selected? Delay no more, left eleven month to go.
 
hello gers

have been a while since i entered....sch started and have been so busy...lost quite a lot of weight from all those work man...so gd to feel like holiday again...hehehe....have not hv the time to even talk abt wedding prep manz...
 
cindee, hi hi. long time no c u already... hmmm. i wan to lose a few kgs too... still trying hard.. sch started? u mean u r still a student or u r a teacher??

Hi gals,
Been busy looking at venue and BS...so far had shortlisted Merchant Court for my wedding banquet...

as for BS, anyone heard any feedback on In Wedding at Tanjong Pagar?
 
hi all

i'm new to the site..
glad to see so many jan brides here...

i'm getting married on the 18th and just signed up for the BS only...

i havent got a flat yet...=(
 
Hi Anna,
wow.. same date as me : ) that's good... i did not really go and ask a geomancer... just asked my FH's relative who is familiar with tongshu... so he helped us choose that date using our birthdate and parents' birth years.... does your geomancer also provide you with the good timing for the groom to pick you up?

X-Zen is a bs..at Tan Quee Lan Street (near bugis junction). doesn't seem to be "famous"... we know abt it thru a friend whose photo we thot were great..
 
Wow never knew sus a forum existed. Always thought we were kiasu to look for hotels and banquets. Glad to know many are preparing already
 
hi blur

hahah me teaching....miss being a student manz....more carefree...

sighz...think i lost some 2 kg since sch started...no time to eat mah...

how u gers manz?
 
HiHi,

I'm also a 08 Jan 06 bride!!! So excited now..have just settled banquet and bridal within these few weeks so now shaking legs till first appt for fittings..
 
carol, i had a few venues in my mind... went looking around occasionally.. but not decided yet.. i busying preparing for my ROM which will b in May.... dun panick, i think i m oso the same state as u.. slow n steady wins the race.. hahahah..

cindee, yaya, i miss those days... esp those uni days when i stay in hostel n away from my parents.. hahhaha.. must take good care of urself lah.. life is good for me.. got my hse few weeks ago, preparing for my rom...wat abt u?
 
Acutally, he didn't mention that the white fence area will be the place for the solenmnization. He was suggesting the plot of land beside the white face. By right it wouldn't be affected even if they decided to renovate and remove the white fence area. Just that it might be noisy or ugly with all the cover ups for the renovations...
Have you coordinator replied you ? On the exact renovation plans?
Ya, by right the plans now is end of Apr 06.. But you never know if it will be completed in time.. So no guarantees also..
 
Hi cindee,

I am a teacher too. me pri sch.. u leh?

i got my flat too. now hdb doing defects. after that will start renvo by impress 21.

very busy since 2005 started... every weekend needs to go and see furniture.. things to buy for the hse ...so glad my AD is not this year.. or esle think i will get more stress...

So blur, haf ya started sourcing for ID?
 
Hi Carol,

my quotation is 7k for a 5rm premium... coz i onli do the minimum.

kitchen cabinets, household shelter and MBR wardrobe.
 
Hi all

I'm planning for my AD in year 2006 too! Haven't got a date though. Was wondering if it is too pre-mature to start preparation? I have signed up with a bridal shop already but havent started with the banquet venue sourcing. Anyone has started? Please share experience and quotation.

My home renovation is completed! For those who are sourcing for an ID, I'd like to recommend you to my id. Do let me know if you are interested to know.

Looking forward to hearing from you gals!
 
Carol and blur,

got a silly qn to ask. For all the quotations that we get from the ID right, normally they would include only the fixtures and fittings is it? Painting of walls, kitchen cabinet, lightings all included?

So they would go and buy the lamps all these for us is it? Only furnitures like the sofa we want, bed etc, we will source ourselves har?
 
hi hi blur
u stayed in hall??? i was in hall all my 3 yrs in NUS too...u from NUS? which hall?

weighed myself again yesterday....lost another 2 kg...hmm...4kg in 3 wks...not bad huh...sighz...must be all the work.

hi linda n lawrence..

hi akoyo!

i've juz checked my email..
my co-ordinator finally replied!
she was saying that the renovation will complete by Feb 2006.. and would not distrub the wedding date that i wanted.. once again this can be sales talk.. hmmm... oh ya.. and they juz emailed me the latest price list.. went up by $20 dollars again.. hmmm..
 
oh ya
another significant change is the Solemnization by the Sea package..
tink they revise the buffet package from $50 per person to $78! tat's a lot!

hi gals..

mi rom prep realli beri bumpy man..the latest prob i haf 2dae whn we went dn 2 charlotte atelier & gerog jensen ware dere r rings we like tat dey dun haf dem in mi size coz mi finger's 2 small!!
sad.gif
& dey aint able 2 customise it 4 mi..
sad.gif
 
Blur Blur,
Depends on how early u want ur reno to be done straight away after keys collection or drag on longer. Averagely, it takes about at least 2 mths to source, discuss and finalise the ID. The id will quote base on your requirements, what u want to do, the materials used and of coz on the floor plan area of your hse.

My reno just completed end OCt. Started sourcing for ID since Mar and discuss quotation and design and reno started beginning of July.
 
hi gals! long time didn't come in to join the thread liao. how's yr preparation? seems like quite a few of u r busy wif reno stuff. so sad... i didn't manage to get the amk flat in balloting. hope that there will be balloting soon.
 
A big Hello to all 2006 march brides!

Jelyn,
You can try a few jewellery shops at Taka. Heard they customise rings.
There are afew there. You can try them. Your budget should be comfortable since you shop at charlotte and geroge. Try those at Taka. Heard great after sales and reviews
 
Hey gals
juz received an email from HDB!

there's a WIS in Woodlands/Sembwang/Yishun
those who are interested can go into HDB website and check it out!

Hi Jelyn,

I happen to kaypo into this forum. I am a feb06 bride but there is no specific forum for me. so i am "floating" around. My wedding band is from george jensen. hmm finger too small? you must be petite!!. I love charlotte atelier collection. seems like we have common liking hey *wink*

may i suggest you to go wisma atria, cannot remember 2nd or 3rd level, aspiral - not any lee hwa. they customised wedding rings and are very friendly. can give it a try.
 
hi ladies,
sori, lost my password. Karina here. Cindy you may wan to update me as SK2 (shorter name to type)
My AD is on 8 Jan 06.
wow it seems like alot of 8 jan brides.
Me abit KS.. got almost everythg ready. my hotel will be Hilton, having both dinner and solmz there. BS is Everbliss. Hse will be ready only 2009. So think maybe will stay with IL. yet to confirm.
 
ks!

hmm oh ya noted that the flats are more expensive now as compared to the last WIS in 2004..
geee!
 
so beside OCC, any other venue confirm for banquet & BS? Guess our timing is ard the same, may get to see one another at either banquet venue or BS. =)
I'm starting to feel fun in the preparation.
