Hi Cheryl,

Hi All,

Finally found the gown i'm looking for. Just to check with those who have booked BS, do you decide how much to put for the deposit or it's according to the BS to state? I was quoted 30:30:30:10. Is this acceptable?

 

[allanyvonne]

Hi Mrs C,

Thanks for the information.

We shall see how it goes then =P

 

[hatemenot]

hi jojo,

my studio decides the payment installment for me.. mine is 50% deposit upfront.. =)

 

[blur_queenie]

Hi tete,

Thanks for the info. Think mine is still acceptable. Will nego with the coordinator.

 

[lingandyang]

Dear all,

mine is on 21 June 08 at Novotel Clarke Quay. Nice to see you all!

 

[josey]

Hi Moon,

drop me an email at [email protected]

I will send it to you.

 

[vbutter]

I've booked my BS with Yvonne's creative... the payment is also 30:30:30:10 (thinking this is a norm for BS at Tanjong Pagar)

 

[vbutter]

Allan & Yvonne,

Wish u two the best of luck to ur WIS... mine will be on 16th... I don habour much hopes... checking HDB website everyday and saw lesser flats left at the end of each day.... I told my FH, no flat, no marriage... LOL... mayb'll get a resale flat...

 

[dduchess]

kel,

u trying hinting him if there is more this?

 

[blur_queenie]

Hi Vivienne,

Good luck in your search for flats. My selection date was on tues morning, but i decided to drop it as most of the better flats are snatched up by Monday morning (1st selection day). The rest of the remaining flats are the areas we are not looking for or it's not safe to stay in. My friend was telling me that Jalan Tenteram wasnt a safe area as they have seen cans & bags of glue on the floor (glue-sniffers?)and some neighbours didn't even move in and left it vacant. Just some comments from my friend. So be careful in the area you choose, the best is to go down and look around.

 

[darkwing79]

[mingz]

Hello!
Am new to this thread as I jus got engaged over the weekend. Am planning to be a 2008 bride but feeling quite lost 'cos I don't have very much info compared to the rest of you girls. Spent the afternoon calling hotels and some like Hyatt said they are not taking bookings for 2008 yet until March but would that be too late? Would be very very grateful if you could share your banquet info with me at [email protected]. My fiance and I are looking at Conrad, Hyatt, Oriental, Marina Mandarin, Pan Pac and Shang. Thanks in advance

 

[darkwing79]

Hi Ming,

I am new too. Just read the thread and source for information here. Alot of FW/FH here are learning and helping each other.

Take care an enjoy here.

 

[vbutter]

Found something about An Chuan... http://www.chcp.org/wedding.html#contemporary

Hehe... esp for Jojo and Cherly

Installing the Bridal Bed
Preparation on the part of the groom involved the installation of the bridal bedon the day before the wedding. A propitious hour and a ‘good luck woman’ or ‘good luck man’, that is a man or women with many children and living mates, were selected to install a newly purchased bed. (The installation ceremony consisted of merely moving the bed slightly; the actual work was done by servants or friends.)

After the bed was in place, children were invited onto the bed as an omen of fertility –; the more, the merrier. For the same reason, the bed was scattered with red dates, oranges, lotus seeds, peanuts, pomegranates and other fruits. Part of the fun was watching the children scramble for the fruit.

 

[brightstar]
