Of course, tink Chinatown/ Beauty world has more of such stores so can hav a stronger bargaining pr...
Enjoy ur prep ladies.

me and my SO chose this date because we simply like it... but seems that it is a hot date... hehe....

 

[gingerbread_gal]

Hi,
Where are the sources for finding out when wedding shows will be held? Is it mainly through magazines? I think I always miss out on the wedding shows, cos I always buy bridal magazines when they have been out for some time...sigh....
Any idea if there is a 'season' for bridal shows?

 

[sleepycat1]

haha. Me and HTB super disciplined. We only topped up 12 photos and only after much persuasion, then we upgraded the album to magazine style. haha! Maybe that's why my BS is not that 'nice' to us to give us back the edited softcopies...Too difficult to earn our money...we are too rationale liao

Noreen, Congrats!!!

 

[piggypang]

Liting the restaurant in Marina Mandarin is quite good too... One thing to take note for buffet lunch or hight tea. If your guests are mainly relatives then they might get the wrong concept thinking buffet is cheaper need not give u so much ang pow. My ex boss suffered quite a major loss and this was the cause. Need to note on this.

dun worry sure to work out something

 

[ryu]

hi nervous,
np la, congrats on settling your BS. If I had the budget I would get margaret's gowns and signoria's pre wedding photo shoot haha but alas I have a budget hehe

 

[skyea]

Hi ladies!

It's so exciting to be discussing about the PS locations. But i'm really slow eh, have not even gone for my gown fitting. Haha.

Wah Korice, you played mahjong with Eric? Hehe. My cousin's name is Kelvin. He's getting married next saturday, 17 Nov.

Xinyi, take care eh.

 

[ryu]

Hi Jac,
I know there will be a big bash " Bows 2008" during 4-6th Jan 2008 12pm - 10pm. One of the largest outdoor wedding show or so the magazine says XD it's at the open plot besides Tan Quee Lan Street opp bugis junction . Free admission

 

[whiteswan]

hi all

where u all plan for honeymoon?

 

[stnov]

congrats noreen on ur upgrade in title....kekeke

 

[sunny_bear]

Hi hi,

haven't been visiting the forum/thread for sometime. hai, do feel kinda tired with the wedding preps, sourcing for this n that sometimes.......seems like so many never ending things to do huh, esp. when i visit the forum, haha.

thanks uk, for sharing on the PG/VG and for posting the 2nd kua.

hey sue, thanks for the contact for the PG also. now i kinda procrastinating, haven't got back into the 'mood' of sourcing/making enquiries....haha, will do so when alarm bells start to ring!

hope both you and Meiling feeling better now, hmm.....suddenly had a thought that we should plan well so that our gd frenz will not come visiting during our PS!

me also going dentist on mon, just doing normal cleaning......ok with the dentist, just got the 'hair stand' feeling when he do the scaling bit, which i really dislike........

 

[b_n_l]

Hello everyone,
we juz bought our wedding bands. Didn't know abt the freebies beforehand, but we were pleasantly surprised when GoldHeart gave us ringpillow, said it comes with their wedding band series. I think most jewellers do offer that nowadays.

What does gdl stand for???

 

[~sblbee~]

hi jac,
i always got info frm d bridal mag n sg bride forum for d upcoming bridal shows...if u r toking abt d major one, shd b d same as d one ryu mentioned - BOWS 2008...
they always have tis kinda thingy (big or small-scaled) but i didnt go cos im scared it'll b too crowded n oso pushed to make a decision on d spot given so many options...i cant make up my mind

piggy,
d restaurant at MM q ex wor...was actually thinking of holding my solemnisation there but it's off my budget but for AD shd b reasonable ba, ard $600-700 per table

 

[racherly]

Hi i read in a previous thread about engaging Bob as photographer. Is he really good? anyone here has used him for AD and can share ur experience?

 

[racherly]

Hi, wow.. seems like many of you have planned your PS in Jan.... mine's in Mar... is it too late?

 

[~sblbee~]

hi racherly,
i've engaged bob as my 2nd PG on my AD in oct 2008 as i've got a AD PG b4 i got to know abt him...a few of d btbs got him as their AD PG too

 

[~sblbee~]

hi sunnybear,
welcome back again! thanks for ur concern, im feeling better now, going to do my crown tis evening n den can attend my fren's wedding wif proper teeth liao
yah a btb frm my bs had tis same prob worrying abt her ps date is d period where her aunt will come n visit but luckily it didnt crash...guz my ad date wont crash wif my gd fren but not too sure abt ps date though

 

[kitty_ng]

Hi racherly,

Dun worry...mine also in march. That's the only period i can do my PS. We jus need to have many things ready by then

 

[blur_queenie]

Stnov,

Sob, my photographer said it's not possible to view in Nov due to her pack schedule. And told me that the album will be out in a week after viewing if in Dec. Possible? Dun they have to do touch up and layout? Sigh.

Just make my reservation to my HM in Hokkaido in Jan. No confirm departure, hope there will be by then. Anyone interested? hah, trying my luck to get it moving.

Stnov, how much is the ampoule? How do i get from you? Think i misplace ur number.

 

[whiteswan]

Hi Jojo

u really nid to push them to rush it out for you soonest other you will nid to make a rush decision of the layout or watever.. and thus the outcome might not be satisfaction.

for the HM, you book wif which agent? how much?

 

[apple_gal]

Good afternoon, Gals!

Hi, xinyi_reiko

Have your rashes recover? Hope everything went well.. Just wish Monday is a sunny day!

 

[gingerbread_gal]

Hi,
Thanks for the info on the BOWS 2008. Think will go look around the shops and then see if can get good deals from the BOWS.

Thanks again!

 

[blur_queenie]

Hi whiteswan,

I had made reservation with UOB Travel Planners. They are one of the authorised agents for ANA holidays and UOB members has discount for the packages taken. So far, ANA holidays offer both night and day flights whereas most of the other agencies like Hong Thai, ASA only has night flights. It's ard 2k each pax exclude tax for 7 days.I'm extending 1-2days in tokyo depend on flight availability. As Jan is an off peak season, it will be hard to get a confirmed departure as most have started work or school thus left the honeymooners. We took the ski package therefore it's not as popular compared to those sightseeing package.
Are you intending to go Japan for HM? You can take a look at the ANA website: www.fch.com.sg

 

[stnov]

Jo...perhaps diff PG can get album done within diff timeframe.....for my PS....layout oreadi take abt 6 weeks....changes to layout abt 2 weeks....production of album ard another 6 weeks which is a long time....

anyway I have yet to settle my EG wif them too & wif tight timeline...im getting panicky too....=(

will PM u my contact again....cheers!!!

 

[stnov]

Jo....u did not activate ur PM function....pls PM mi so I could reply u....thanks...

 

[xinyi_reiko]

hello ladies..

apple_gal, no leh.. now my left arm got some red spots now.. very worry..

 

[blur_queenie]

oops, sorry, can email to [email protected]

Thanks!

 

[apple_gal]

Hi, xinyi_reiko

I think you better go see doctor... & don't worry so much! Stay happy & will go well.

 

[bunnyhop]

[tinkybell]

Hi Girls...

talking abt the aunty visit on PS n AD, i too have the same concern as same of u... for those who are on regular timing, most likely can predict ur critical time-frame... but for those whose aunty dun visit regularly and always come on surprise, then the best way would be to take pills.

Sue, hope u r getting better now... i have the same problem too each month... btw, girls, anyone of u here, care to share ur mtd to tackle the cramps???

[kitty_ng]

I would also like to bring my dog for PS but he's too big to be managed....hee

 

[tinkybell]

Hi Meiling,

[tellytubby]

oh...where's the excel list? can send to me...
btw, what dog do you have??that time i asked my BS they say it's possible to get a helper to go along to help "look after" your dog..that's what i intend to do...get my SIL or a friend to babysit the dog...
i've got a female shih tzu..getting another one soon..after i move in to my new house...

 

[kitty_ng]

hi valerie, here's the file

My dog is mixed breed (golden retriever+collie)white in colour. Too big to bring out.... Shi tzu is very guai and manageable!!! My friend has one too and they are very fun to play with. <center><table border=1><tr><td>
