I heard good reviews on Four Seasons

Since you are having 100pax, how about ACM? I love that place...if only I don't have so many guests, I'll surely make a beeline for it.

 

[jbluesea]

Hi Hi all,

Great to meet you gals here. My wedding is in May 08 too and I am new to this forum.

I am currently looking for my bridal studio. Anyone has any idea which is good? I visited Sattine last week and was quite impressed with their photos but not sure if the package is good. Can anyone out here share your bridal package details with me so that I can negotiate for better perks?

 

[princessnono]

Wow... Four Seasons.. I love tat place too!! kekeke.. I heard tat's a very auspicious place!! a lot of rick Indo Chinese always held their AD there.. Isn't it expensive??

 

[mage]

I like ACM too but worried about the additional cost like rental of room, decor, etc.

I'm going for a discussion with Four Seasons on Friday! Can't wait!

 

[prispris]

[witch]

STnov, when is your next fitting? Perhaps you want to have a 'cut-off date' such that you still can go for MTM if the OTR gowns really dun work out for you? Of course, I hope you can find the gown that you are happy with soon!

 

[prispris]

Val, will BS let us try their gowns even when we just go in to check it out?

 

[beachgirlz]

pris yup most will. if they don't, then tell them u need to try if not how u noe u like the gowns o not. if they still don allow. drop them.

 

[princessnono]

hey Stnov..
When is your next fitting?? If U needed an other opinion, I can accompany u yah.. just let me know okie.. no worries..=D

 

[prispris]

really... wow!!! den i must go and do that lioa haha haha haha

 

[flora_bliss]

Valerie> I go to the California Fitness. Gonna go there again this evening after work.

 

[mage]

Noreen, auspicious or not I'm not sure but I simply love that hotel. Find it cosy and classy. From the start I wanted to do my wedding there but for a weekend dinner its expensive, so considering doing a weekend lunch instead.

Stnov, ya planning to write a letter in to whack the coordinator after I settle and confirm my venue. I read about your encounter with your BS on your multiply. Sorry to hear about that. Did you managed to talk to the boss? Maybe need to go straight to the boss then you might see some results? Hope you can find your dream gown soon.

 

[dkaren]

Thanks Flora Bliss for doing the check on the date.

It seems there are a lot of version of stating about 28.06.2008.

 

[xinyi_reiko]

hello gals, i am back from malaysia.. these 2 days was pretty bad.. my mum is very sad. Somemore she cannot pray.. becoz is younger than my mum.

 

[1192001]

Hi Juli,

I have received negative feedbacks from Sattine, so not sure if good or not. But always good to source around more.

I'm also sourcing around for my bridal studio. No specific preference at the moment.

 

[1192001]

Hi Parmida,

Can ask around. Maybe some hotels poolside can hse more pple.

Goodwood park???

Alternatives, yup..will be country clubs

 

[necrosis]

*hugs* xinyi..

i don't understand abt the "pray" part, but what the heart speaks, God up there will surely hear.

pris, all other gals,

[crayongal]

[jbluesea]

HI 1192001,

Thanks for your prompt reply. You are the first reply I got so far after posting a few messages...heee...

Negative Feedback?? Can share with me what it is abt? Service or Price? Not sure what I should look out for too.

Some frens of mine ended up paying 6K to 8K for their BS due to the additional photos they had to pay

Quite expensive...

Have you booked your dinner yet?

 

[jule]

during one of the wedding shows.. Maybe I should go check it out

 

[cherz]

Valerie & shice,

I posted my rom pics on multiply. my nick is cherzcherz.

[princess_cabbage]

Erm....ladies...where is ACM?
Pardon this mountain tortoise... keke

 

[prispris]

flora bliss u got go california??/ i used to go the bugis one... but find their services is very ..... and also just find the way they bill ppl is very funny... every 2 weeks send me one bill to pay the membership... in the end i cancelled the membership and choose to go to the gym @ the CC near my hse...

 

[mage]

Stnov, good luck with your discussion on Sat! No need to give them so much face one! After all, customer is always right! Hehe!

cabbage, ACM = Asian Civilisation Museum.

 

[bigfish]

WAH, i was away for business for a wk and i came back with pages of things to read... from shoes to tanning to meeting up and to PS...

i am pretty excited too, my PS wld be in another wk's time.. but the nervous thing is that i've yet to get a pair of heels and also havent done any homework for the types of hairstyles i like.. now i feel even much more nervous after reading all your posts.... cos like i'm very ill prepared... btw, any one got a MUA to recommend??? for actual day...

thanks...

 

[hatemenot]

hi mage,

envy you! can change to four seasons.. i lurve four seasons too, really classy and cosy. But I don't have the budget. good luck to you on your discussion as well!

hi stov,

you have to jia you, cannot be too depressed yah.. everything will solve by itself. I think their boss quite nice.. that taiwanese guy right? so don't worry =)

me still quite sick.. everyday go work.. very sick.. havnt recover.. and gosh my ROM is 3 weeks away!

 

[witch]

Hi bigfish, you can try Mico Chiu from U-Style. She is highly raved by many people in the forum.

Speaking of hairstyles, I saw this hairdo on Fiona Xie on a Channel 8 show last night. I love the curls and how her hair was styled. If only I could screen-capture the frame and show it to my MUA.

 

[mage]

Thanks tete!

Get well soon!

Ash, try surfing Ch 8 website? See if they have photo gallery for that show or something

 

[princess_cabbage]

Mage, thanks for enlighting this mountain tortoise. hee..

Erm... gals... again, where to research on hair styles? Is it necessary?

 

[princessnono]

Hey gals.. can try surfing the net wo find different hair styles.. Tat's wat I did too.. =P

 

[princessnono]

Hey Stnov, I will be wking tis sat till 12 noon.. might pop by .. =D whr is your BS exactly??

 

[sleepycat]

Stnov, dun worry too much. I am sure things will work out somehow. Do let us know the outcome of this sat's discussion.

Noreen, any website to share??

 

[flora_bliss]

Pris> Yup, I'm a lifetime member liao. So only need to pay $100 per yr. I only go for classes, no enrol in PT program. The staff there can be quite rude and irritating.

Yesterday, I juz went for the body balance during lunch and body combat after work. Now whole body aching like mad.

Sigh... serve me rite for being too greedy.

 

[witch]

Cabbage, you can leave it entirely to your MUA if you trust her to come up with the best style that suits you. Anyway, it is still quite useful for your MUA to have a better understanding of the type of hairstyles you like if you can show her pictures for reference. She can give her advice and recommendations and this helps to manage everyone's expectations.

 

[beachgirlz]

helo gals.. last nite went to watch shrek.. so farnie leh.. nice way to relax after a busy day. went to goldheart n sookee to look at rings too. found 1 from each shop tat's not bad. cant wait to go fairy's inc to see

[flora_bliss]

xinyi> It's always sad when someone close departed. You and your family got to take care.

Valerie> I have to confess tat I stopped going to the gym for 3 mths already. No motivation leh. So force myself to go yesterday. To think tat I used to be an exercise freak, going to the gym at least 4 times per week. I no fix branch to go. It depends on which class I can make it.

 

[princess_cabbage]

Oh.... ok..ok...
Think I'll go surf the web.. will update here if I happen to come across any sites.

 

[hapimint]
