- Start date
EL, your wedding's a week before mine right? We may be able to pull something off cos' my guests are coming in like Wednesday/Thursday so we may just do something. Can you give me a tentative no. to work with?
We're working with 10 rooms currently. Let me know cos' we're starting to bargain this month cos' Carlton will release to us confirmed group rates by the end of November (April's rates are not out yet). Marriott has reverted with rates for us valid in April. Let me look at them and pass them on to you vide email.
Lipstar, I think you click on a button next to the internet "e" button on your taskbar.
K, I'll keep 21st clear for you then. I'll give you a buzz on Monday morning to confirm, yes? And if we can meet any day earlier, then will get to you.

Diana, I'm not very sure about the package details but when my FH sis engaged one (the PG is our distant relative), she paid only cost for everything... overseas PS, studio PS, AD customary and dinner and return of all original photos in CD ROM (she took digital), the price is about 2K. If you want to know who is the PS i can give you the contact. Just sms me if you need it.
OIC... hmm... you gals really did your homework... i still so blur blur... got lotsa to learn... but i not so worried about the guest list... cos we are only having 18 tables.. about half already taken up by "unknown relatives n parents' friends"...
Then.. for myself.. only close colleagues n close friends invited. I think probably more will come from HB's side... he's more active.. i more like a home person

apple
not to scare you lar, wat will happen if your unknown relatives and parents' frens choose to go to another dinner instead?? thats why you need to secure the guests earlier and remind them again nearer the date..
and hor, like one of my close frens' wedding last month, another close fren cannot go coz cousin's wedding..

Hi YaYa,
yaa..Mr Low VG is very simple lor..but i dun demand much for VG. I just need someone to help take the actual day event..Wanted to ask friend for help but feel paiseh coz if they help me do video, they'll be running around with me and wun get to seat down for the dinner.
Hi bear,
Think it's ur own preference. VG can no need to have, but I think a AD PG MUST HAVE...hehe..that's the only thing that can keep with us till the day we die...VG, think many yrs later, the cd will start to mould and spoilt..
That's why I'm looking at the cheapest VG that I can find..

mine is with Ted Wu, we signed up 1 week after attending his bridal show at Fullerton in July. I like his embroidery designs and find him very nice and friendly cos I went with my friend for her first appointment with him before. So how's your BS shopping coming along?
thanks for the reminder bsproffy...
then how early is early? i mean.. i have told frens i plan to invite... is on 9th dec.. how early should i settle on the guest list?
for the unknown relatives n parents' frens... quite hard to chase them.. unless from my side.. his side... i prefer not to ask too much.. ask too much.. wait got more problems.. quite scary

hi frais bleu
I think it's around $5700 consisting of 1 MTM WG and EG, flowers, makeup and photography by Ray Ong.
*pat pat* good idea to wait for your FH and go with you, then you can have him stand there and admire you while you try on the pretty gowns and see his face light up ... hee
Sign up only when both of you are satisfied with it.

hi frais bleu
hahaha ... 'shit then look for toilet'? so funny! Don't worry too much, maybe he has bigger plans and surprises for you.
My hubby is also very busy and that's why we signed up at the first BS we went. *phew* luckily, it was Ted Wu, something I have always wanted.
Meanwhile, you can perhaps take your time to look around and shortlist a few for him to have his pick when he comes back first. That'll save some time.

so far... we only plan for 18.. the max will be 20. cos GWP ballroom is not big. 20 can still be comfy. 23 is the max but will be too squeezy.
anyway, i always have this thought that if invite frens havent contacted for long time.. like very obvious... just want them to come n collect ang pows n place the seats.

Thanks, Dorami!

, I find that TWP style has a touch of humour in it and it's quite light-hearted, something not quite my style ... would love something romantic. As for Treasures, any idea who their VG is?
I have looked through the Spore Brides list, what do you think of Capture Moments, Ninetrogen and Bugs Media?

Hi Ginger!
Great idea, me not the type who knows how to keep my nails in tip top condition. So now thinking of doing it just before la. Also, I've never gone for manicure in my life before. Dun mind if someone can bring me there. At least I won't feel so lonely.
As for facial, you are right, maybe a few days before in case I have pimples and need her to press it away. Do check with your coordinator on the shoes. Me really dunno where and what type of shoes to buy.
If you need a reno in 5 years time, then tell me... haha ... I'll recommend my ID to you then. But if he gives me any problems, then I'll tell you who not to go ... haha ...

Hi Chijmes,
When I went for gown fitting, I didn't ask for exclusive range. Actually me also very fussy, tried almost 2 hours before deciding. Though after looking at some of the photos from the style wedding show, me also like not very contended with my design. Almost wanted to ask for a change, but then again, I kind of forgot how my own gown looked like. No photo, also got a hundred other things to do, that's why. Anyway, my FH said to just take that gown and concentrate on looking for a EG.
I've never met Sammi before, but from what they said, she's good. You should be safe and in good hands. My coordinator is Irene. She's ever patient and digs and digs until I feel so paiseh. I will go down on 26 Nov and choose my EG again. If cannot find anything I like, then got to MTM too. My FH also agreed on that. 26 Nov will be my trial make-up day and measurement taking too.
Not too sure if topping up for the crystal is worth it. Unless the crystals are huge, otherwise I think most people cannot see them right? I took a huge pin-on ribbon and a simple train instead of having an elaborate train. What is important is that you must be happy with what you see in the mirror.
But if not happy then go for MTM la (if budget is comfortable). Better be happy then sulky. After all, it is once in a lifetime.
So when is your next appt?
