hi jess,
we're nearly in the same boat eh!!!
is your FH a freethinker?
mine is hindu leh.
dunno if that will become a problem or not.
but will attend EE or MPC first lah.
have you gone for yours?
1. BS in JB
BRIDAL SHOW ON 23-25TH MARCH CITY SQUARE.
can go down and take a look...
printemps, dawn and 2 more will be there for this..
well, as for recc, you really need to see the style/gowns/rapport yourself...some pple like venus, some pple like milans, santiago, SG bridal...
so all these threads pple have posted how nice/good service while others have also posted lousy etc...
guess it depends on the rapport lor..
(but i think cheaper to go JB leh heheheh)
2. Lunch or dinner buffet
depends.
i guess this depends on what time your mass is...
food after ceremony!
3. MUA & photographer on AD
oh, i've short listed a few AD PGs, but they are all super ex kind, like 2k
cos they are gold award winners in international artistic wedding PGy.
if ya like those artsy ones only.
some prefer more simple, down to earth style....up to you, must see all the PGs portfolio, (view online during lunchtime), then when ya decide which ya don't mind, then meet up and see if have chemistry with both you AND FH.
also read in bliss mag, < 1k PG for AD, inclu MUA...simon something...
so def can find something for all budgets.
4. caterer
smiling orchid,
CDCP (continental something...)
can't think of any more...
ask those in your office who always organize events which have food...they would have some ideas.
