[gelaine]

Hey Quack,

Think you can try surfing net, forums and read about the venues and start shortlisting. Then you can proceed to call up the places u shortlist to visit them to take a look and at the same time, ask them if you can bring your doggies.

Hurry up le... dun wait till Feb!

[jaslyn_82]

oh.. I m going for a wedding dinner at M Hotel next mth.. then I not sure if urs is there..
u taste the food there liao mah??

 

[momo23]

Hey Quack,
I dont mean to scare you.. but its really a very hot date. It has no special significance to me either. Jus a date selected by mum according to the Ba Zi. I almost gave up marrying next year as initially I couldnt get the hotel i wanted. In the end, we decided to have 2 separate days, 17th & 18th nov (dinner)
You should look at 18th Nov instead now, cos as far as I noe, most popular hotels are fully booked on 17th nov.
I am quite unlucky as for a few hotels we have shortlisted, theres ALWAYS a couple ahead of us... sigh... we are always at others' mercy...

But luckily we finally SETTLED the venue!

Blurblur: where are you goin to hold ur dinner? is it on the same day?

 

[cutebear13]

wow.. good buy leh junie.. somemore near MRT... good good.. ya lor.. dn be so chek ark la.. keke.. is already quite good value liao la...

 

[jaslyn_82]

my MIL say she want to go KL with me!!
then now all full liao.. how to book.. haiz..
yesterday call so many times.. to ask whether we help her find bus liao anot..
she say we go hotel can add one more bed for her..
I was at wedding dinner yesterday nite.. listen to her call more than 5 times..
I thought over liao.. but this morning call another 5 times!!

isit a warning signal that she is demanding???

 

[ajoy7877]

HI Straw..

At the moment is Chani Ballroom..in case increase.. will update to Atrium ballroom..

 

[kayemoss]

Piglet & jhoo, my advice is not to take the medication for da yi ma...

I took b4... wow... My PERIOD went super haywired after that.... The only good thing abt it is that i dun get cramps!

 

[skinnybeany]

[jesslau]

Hi Doreen & Priscilla

My BS is Graceful Image. Not sure if they are fexible on any changes made. I find them prof during wedding show but of cos I heard from lots of my friend tat normally after showcase they would change 360 degree. Not sure if they have time to MTM if I only confirm in March. Think it's kinda late.

Can I check with you u gals whether is MUA included in the package or have to pay extra?

 

[krystal80]

huh? Jas, how come ur MIL wanna go KL with u? Paiseh for being blur but I think I missed something along the way

 

[skinnybeany]

[cutebear13]

Jas>> erm now hor difficult to get tickets to go KL already leh..why so last min leh??

 

[jaslyn_82]

I m going from 15th to 17th Dec..

[jaslyn_82]

[max0924]

hey quack, envy u can do something out of the norm for your wedding. outdoor is great! can bring your doggies too, i also have a dog, not sure if i can sneak him into the hotel or not.

i think if u were to do outdoor, venue is not as difficult coz most couples still prefer air con. but in order to find a hotel with nice outdoor, i not so sure other den bueafort and rasa shangri la in sentosa. maybe u can consider a venue not within hotel?

 

[smilez]

wah jhoo, so fast wan to plan for project B already?

 

[cutebear13]

hmm... a bit rushy leh.. keke but bo bian.. if your MIL want to go, have to at least make an effort to source the tickets for her.. if dn have, then bo bian.

 

[padi]

Jessica: My MUA is included in the package except for the cost of ampule.
My good friend is also using GI for her wedding in May next year. She seems pretty happy with them, and they seem flexible.

 

[yvonneoh]

heee... jhoo, so fast planning for bb alr...

 

[jaslyn_82]

[cutebear13]

hmm... but u and your hubby take bus right?? then if no more bus ticket liao then your MIL take train huh??

 

[rubberducky]

Jo & Momo, what dogs do you have? So sad that it's so hard to include them hor?

Smiles, glad to know that you got your dinner all settled. What do you mean by saying that you'll have 2 separate days?

Jo, thanks for the tips. I'll start compiling a list of places immediately!

Man, really didn't know that Nov 17 is so auspicious. The Four Seasons is already fully booked. We also haven't really made a shortlist of places yet. In fact, the FH just proposed 2 plus weeks ago only... and now things seem to be moving so fast!!! Really is a bit scary hor?Eheheh.

I starting to feel a bit kan-chiong and overwhelmed leow. I guess we have to speed up our research right away.

Momo, if possible hor, our preferred venue will be OUT of a hotel.

We imagine a more laid-back, informal event, lots of greenery, dogs running about, BBQ buffet if possible, music, dancing and lots of fairy lights. I just wonder whether my fantasy wedding will turn out to be exactly that - just a fantasy.

 

[skinnybeany]

eve>> good luck. But all i can say is patience.

I saw more than 20 units then finally managed to shortlist a few

 

[jo23]

smiles: saw that u r having ur dinner at GCW. Hee.. U know we wanted that location too but its taken up. IL dun wan to change date, we dun wan to spread over 2 diff dates so we change the venue.

 

[cutebear13]

junie>> haha i a bit lesser then u la.. so far i have view about 15 units ba.. all ard tampines.. if worst to worst no choice may extend to view other areas already.. haizhse hunting very tiring hor..
