Hi Starry,
Which geomancer u go? But never mind lah, so long as it is a good date can already. Maybe from now on, all of us here can exchange information in order to save up more. Reali very X to have wedding.. I keep asking my FH, who introduce such a procedures... sigh...

Hi PoohGer
Welcome. Havent had of that b4
 


Hi SK2,

The geomancer was my father's neighbour during their kampong days. Seem like my relative always consult him whenever my cousin getting married or they moved house.
Have you apply for a flat already? I got mine and now in the midst of settling my BS, Bqt and Reno. Huh...money not enough leh!
 
hahhaa.. Starry, think tat is the common problem unless all of us are millionaire. Me oso $ not enuf. I got my flat but will be ready only end 09. So maybe will settle in with my IL's. Kind of still can't accept the facts of staying at people's hse, but I reali dun wan to spend extra to rent a place. Was toying with idea of wkday I stay at my own place (myself) and wkend I will go to his place. But seems like I'm having problem with that. =(

hi bluegal,
thanx for the info =)
then from the hdb website, how will u girls know if the unit is good? or i gotta go to that area and check it out?
then normal for eg the unit available are always in the same 'side'.. Example: 02-11, 03-11, 04-11 .. are these most likely to be those that is facing the sun?
 
hi sleepy!

not necessary that all those units that are on the same side are "bad"..
it might be that HDB did not released all the units.. so now they release all the units at the same "side" at one go..

yes it's better for u to go down and take a look at the premises and surroundings..
as for the sun part.. u can juz see from the map..
as long as it's not facing the west.. shld be fine...
happy.gif
 
hi rach,
thanx for all the info hehe! me very clueless on such stuff.. but i think quite hard to get my bf to go with me.. coz his side need to OT often even on weekend..
but rach, u all havent get the keys ah? so u all have reno also lor? u all est how long will u all need to get the reno?
 
hi sleepy!

yup haven't get keys yet..
most probably in March??
hmm hopefully can get in March/April..
I will only start renovation in May..
tink wil take at most 3 mths to complete...

oh ya btw are u goin to the Rasa wedding show in March??? i'm going and hope to see u there leh!

1-5pm.. u can go into www.shangri-la.com
to find out hw u can register for it..
yup there's an increase in px.. increase of $20 per table..
 
hi starrynight

i do agree with you..the food there is not that nice..but will keep it as an option though just in case...

seems like most of you have booked the venue..
will it be too late if i booked in march?

Hi Merzy03
wats the rate for rtp?
thats one of our option too.
is the place nice? never been there before...
 
Hi to all Jan 06 Brides

I am also a Jan 06 brides.
AD is on 7 Jan.
May I join your thread?
Busy checking around for a wedding package.
Hope to know more friends here.
 
Hi Rachelle,
We only paid the 2k deposit. As for the 10% downpayment, the officer told us to wait for ard 3 months.
Hmm we did not ask about the keys release, don't think he'll know so we never ask.
Increase $20 is consider reasonable but overall shangri-la is still quite Ex. The hotel we engage increase $30 per table for 2006 lei.


KS bride,
Thanks.
 
hi blue!
oh yaaaaa haiyo.. today is juz the booking fee!
hehe.. me blurblur liaos :P
ohh okie.. so u still can delay the keys i guess.. hmmm

I loved the idea of having a solemnization by the sea.. tat's y chose Sentosa..
happy.gif

but if u were to sign up during the wedding show.. tink u can keep the 2005 pricing.. which is $20 cheaper than 06
happy.gif

and also they have pretty much freebies..
hehe.. can't wait to sign up.. have already placed a tentative booking already
happy.gif
 
hi sk2,

thanks a lot for the info,
he will provide the time to fetch the bride,the animal signs to avoid etc?need to get gou da li and an chuang dates from him also?:-)
 
Hi Cool,
Me also went to Danny.. if he told SK2 the same thing, he charges 50 bucks for the An Chuang date.. think guo da li date will be included too..

Hi Pimply,
Its a little risky to wait till mar/apr to book your venue cos many may be already taken up and that will leave u with limited choices. Having said that, its still impt that you feel comfortable and sure before booking. Do you have any shortlised? For me, i'm adopting the wait and see approach for bridal studio to get better deals. Unlike venue, it does not hv the risk of being taken up.. heh heh...

Hi Tom&amp;Jerry,
welcome to this thread! good to hv so many pple to join in!
 
Hi T&amp;J,
Welcome to join in.. of coz..
245322.gif



Hi Cool &amp; Twinks,
Yes, I think he charge $50 for an chuang and GDL is another charge. But dun think he is expensive. I din have both dates so I dun knw the actual price. Guess is better to check with him. He will look at ur horoscope and both paternal and maternal parents, and will let you know tat AD which horoscope shd not be involve in bestman, bridesmaid, drivers, "open car door" boy etc. and he will let you know the timing to avoid. the timing to avoid is for not to perform prayers, tea ceremony and solemz etc.

Hi Rhino,
Nv mind, anyway, tat is a gd day oso...

How come only I have hse update???
245323.gif
 
Hi Pimply,
Can only remember the weekend price for RTP...its $819+ for the minimum eternity menu. As for the place, well, it's quite nice..with the set-up in the ballroom, can be quite romantic.
happy.gif
But, of coz, since there are many ballrooms there, very likely will share same venue as other couples lor. But really lovely bridal suite on the 64,65,66 storey!!! breathtaking!
happy.gif


thanks for the updates gals..but hor, erm..dun u think the font is a bit big? the whole table seems to be very wide. How do u all do it ah..can scale it down so easier to see?
happy.gif
 
Hi Lilacblur,

Ya, I guess Amara now is very popular for their Poolside ROM but I am thinking of having it in the ballroom instead.
happy.gif
Moreover, their package is very attractive and it cost only S$999 nett for a high tea reception.

It is unlikely for me to have my customary this year.

Actually, have already decided which hotel I wanted to have the Dinner for my actual day -- Grand Hyatt. Do you think this is a good place?

Next step... BS... another headache.

Lilacblur, how much is your wedding package and what did they offer you? Is their ROM tea dress cool??~~
happy.gif
 
hi rhino
same here...i didnt consult geomancer..
wow..looking at sk2 thread, there are so many things to take note...

hi sk2
its gd to have the hse..we havent got a flat yet..
and our option is to stay at our own parents' hse if we didnt manage to get any flat by then..

hi twinks
thanks for the info..
we have shortlisted a few but had not gone dwn yet to see the ballroom..

Anyone been to marina mandarin?
the ballroom looks quite nice from the website..

Hi Merzy03
oh..so i guess the wkday price be ard $700+..
wow..the bridal suite - so high...i like..
guess the bridal suite will play a little part in the venue that i be choosing..heehee

the fonts looks ok to me..but i guess got to be scale dwn when we have more jan brides joining us..=)
 
so happy and excited now. the senior family folks agreed that I can just have a solemnisation and hi tea type of wedding with close frds &amp; relatives. Can save lotsa $$, only 1 wedding dress required, no need to spend on frills, prior photography, etc. etc. can go for luxurious honeymoon liao.

nelle
 
Hmmm, I cannot seem to make the posting of the table works.......help

Hi pimply,
May I know which are the places you have shortlisted? I'm thinking of having in Meritus Mandrain or Intercontential Hotel.
 
Hi Pimply,
I personally dun like mandarin service, so dun think i wan to give futher comments.

Hi Starry,
I can help to update if u wan.. =)

Ladies,
Let's see how fast we get it fill up...hahaha...
 
Hi StarryNight

I cant rem all the hotels that we have shorlisted..the list w my FH..i think we have shortlisted more than 10.
the ones that i rem are:
rtp, intercontinental, meritus mandarin, marina mandarin, pan pac, hilton, ritz carlton..

heard intercontinental not bad but the parking is terrible especially during wkends.

basically we shortlisted those that are more accessible for the guests cos my Ad on a wkday...

hi sk2
thanks for the info..will keep that in mind...
but they seems to have a lot of perks for 2005 dinner..
 
Thanks SK2 for updating!
My Punggol home done up &amp; stay for a yr le!
Me long overdue bride! suppose Sept05 AD but due to work.. etc...

Hi Pimply, Marina Mandarin + Rasa Sentosa + Pan Pac doing some reno works this yr so by 2006 b pretty 'new' &amp; def price increase!
 
Hi pimply,
if you reali wan to consider mandarin, take the marina one. try not to go for orchard.

Hi rhino,
