Hi Ling,
Ya, get contractors will be cheaper lor....If u u want less bills for renovation, maybe do less carpentary lor...cos it will cost a bomb man...

I only looking at 2006 but which date I dunno....Venue I also dunno yet...Will try to go and see the venue first b4 I decide lor..But u take note that when the wedding dates nears, most prob will have increase in tables one...so Hyatt may be an option leh....

Hi Ching & Moo,
Nice meeting you.
Hi Sugarbabe,
Your BS is so worth it. I must talk to my hubby to go JB to get the bridal package too. Are we able to keep the EG and also the men's suit?
Actually, i kind of like Kia Bridal but a bit costly. Anyway, i still got time to look around cos' will shift my AD to end 2006. Hopefully the same date as my ROM date last yr, Dec 27.

Hi Ladies...good morning to all!!

hi moo, JB santiago is further away frm custom but if FH gt car, nt a problem though!! for my case, printemps is the first BS i went to then signed up, but overall no regrets so far *touchwood* heehee... heard from other threads that a photographer frm Santiago is the best in JB but dun noe how true though.. Printemps album layout is not cheena n quite modern-looking, so i can say quite comparble to s'pore standard. maybe when u r free, go to Printemps n ve a look?! BTW, bargain skills muz b GD!! *winks*

As for the date not yet go geomancer to get..
As for the house.. ya capentry need to do but that one got lobang.. sis in law's dad.. so i reckon he give us a good price is we stick to cheap alternative..

Hi Bugbear,
Then u have to decide which area is more important lor...If ambience is the most important then u have to give and take for the food lor...U want tuesday ah?? Any particular reason?? Y not Monday cos people are still not in mood for work yet or Thursday when they are already looking forward to weekend liao? If weekends, u better hurry lor...I am also quite free now...so surfing to look for info...but I cannot go view the ballroom leh...
Hi Ling,
Then u better find time to go look at the hotels soon lor....wah...u have lobang for reno ah..good leh...can save a lot!!! kekekeke...
Hi Sugar,
wah...really pei fu u to go to JB leh....Then very time consuming to go there right?? Is it safe to go there...recently the newpapers say the crime rate there very bad leh...Be careful yar??

Ling, Wot u mean by see how much MC offer u? their prices actually quite ok...
Think Furama not exactly that cheap also lor and it's an old hotel leh...
Ching, i think i prefer to have a balance of both food and ambience lor...cos i think if food no good...i sure kena complained lor...that's why no contemplating if i should still stick to marriott...or take merchant...cos comments on merchant for food and ballroom is not bad. BTW, why cant u go view the ballrooms? i have viewed a few already leh...heheh...
Any comments abt Hyatt ar? besides the ceiling low, i dunno if the food is good...but so far, the ballroom settings still quite ok. not too bad.

Hi Tracy...for me, i am most likely going for Montage. Initially i also wanted Chris ling...but they are very difficult to negotiate for more items...and the more i see chris ling works, the more i feel as if every couple seems to have almost same style of pictures.
I personally quite like the style of photolanguage...but don like the album...i find the album quite terrible...very cheapo looking...
so now, me waiting for make arrangement with Montage to meet up with him to see if i am comfortable with him...cos i read comments about him is that he is very quiet...
I think The Edge is also quite good. How much are u paying for that package? U talked to Shirley?

The food is okay actually.. I think the food wasnt a topic of distain.. you know how some place you go ald.. eat not full still got to go supper... However I think the standard is just average.. no complains.
No lah is because of the place mah.. a bit.. hmm uncomfortable esp is my sis in law younger sis... so a bit uncomfy..
anyway the whole place is grand lor and they drive the buggy in.. it was like never seen before one lah.. interesting!

Hi girls..
*exam finally over...*
I think JB BS is really a good idea.. but I cannot understand how it can be like only 1.3k! I think certain wedding salon have branches there as well.. I think there will be like pretty good offer on them...
Anyway we need to start on some timeframe of the wedding and I think we are still taking our sweet time on it hahaha...

Hi all....I'mnew to the thread...thought it's still early to plan for a 2006 wedding..until I saw all of you here..haha..quite assured that it's the righ time to start thinking liao.
To ling and yaya....I have just finished my exams too...so relaxed now...
was shopping to destress abit after my exams leave and at the end, signed up for a bridal package instead...don't know whether it's on impulse or what...cos didn't really have a good view of all other boutiques yet...

quite a good deal...esp when I compare with my friends..just that of course in your package, there are bound to be bits of things that others have you don't and you have others don't....
now, I'm a bit upset cos my FH got reprimanded by his dad....as he didn't know his aunt is in the bridal business...can help him a lot.........sobs....
package includes mtm wedding gown and evening gown and has my graduation and family photo with it....

ai yah.. no worries lah. at most transfer it out..
However 1 thing is real.. very hard to tell 'ka ki lang' if you dont like the design and they still want to impose on you. Makes it difficult..
Anyway go with the heart lah.. rather than end up unhappy with a lot of things and cannot say it...

Hi ling...
actually my FH and I have been talking about marriage liao...only talked but put things off till exams are over...now seriously doing research...a bit late in the sense that I have already booked my package....so now can only see ideas on banquet and other stuff. and of course...try my best to bargain lor....hehehe
what you said is quite true....better rely on ourselves...if not get unhappy with relatives somemore...thanks for that advice
Hi yaya and bugbear.....
by the way, I went to view the Pinnacle at Duxton showflats...really beautifully designed..I mean the renovation...and found it costs $75000 leh....
this is something like a condo concept cos it comes with walls, doors and bathrooms all done up..so we only need to get furniture..wardrobes and kitchen set ups..etc...price range from 398000 to 440000.......
Hi bugbear....
yup...started getting hooked ever since I started...went into so many different threads to read...super interesting and can learn a lot leh.......hmmm...as I am having a church wedding..most likely do everything on saturday.....
then sunday enjoy the banquet....actually considering having a cruise wedding but my mum is afraid that the elderly won't take to it esp the buffet spread........
Hi Ling/sugarbe/elin/bugbear..
we have got really similar traits here........I also can't cook...but my mum is a super good cook so always got teased abt it...by friends and relatives who tasted her fare...........
and for my FH...everytime I cooked instant noodles with soup...I try to add in eggs, button mushroom, vegetables
then will tell him "see you are so lucky....got "san3 cai4 yi4 tang1"..meaning three dishes and 1 soup...noodles = staple (rice ) mah hehehe.............and he always washes the dishes....so no problems abt that keke
Hi sugarbabe....
for my wedding package...talked abt the JB one too...but knowing that we may need to make multiple visits near the wedding......thought it might be too troublesome....but it's really worth it........with all the table tops .
others...
worked in century roxy park during my poly days...good poolside area...maybe that can be a small reception for ROM?
altivo is nice only at night.....in the day time, looks quite run down.
going for my brother's wedding in marina mandarin in october...shall update you then....
raffles town club is having great wedding packages.....in your range too....
I went there for a few dinners...great setting....... and one of my lions (happen to be in the leo club....since school days until now) is a member....so getting his help....on it then......
