I got mine from D'Meyson. They have nice designs and most of their diamonds are certified from as small as 0.14 onwards.. most need to be at least 0.30 to be certified...
Gave me free engraving as well.. hehe..
Go to Bugis's outlet.. PM me if u are interested and I'll let u know who to look for, for good service!

Sorry for my late reply...I signed on the last day of November 2007....Hahaha...So that I am entitled to the previous wedding show perks...It was the one and only hotel that we viewed and signed on the spot....

Amanda,

I see...My coordinator is Kaylynn....Erm to what I know...My coordinator mentioned that there is a piano in Vanda ballroom which can be used....I am not too sure abt the one that you mentioned...Maybe you can check with Sen.... =)

Speaking of PS...Eh...
My BS *Sattine does not do evening shots, so all fotos will b crystal clear...
Probably shophouses/waterfall/arty backdrop scenes...not into nature as beri scared of lallang/little creepy crawlies. Furthermore not so adventurous...jus wanna chop chop finish n rest...i hope e indoor shots turn out well...
Wat abt u? Where did u go...do share so tat we hav some ideas...4 those who hav yet 2 go 4 PS...thanz!
Hey May BTB mebe u all can share wat r some items tat r diy-ed by u... n how u give a personal touch so as to make ur wedding memorable.
Anithing frm march in, wedding favours, deco, theme etc...lez spur each other on cos' it's true tat some of us may feel a bit inert...
Cheers!

May we all hav lovely weddings 2 remember by!

I share... if u heard of SCRAPBOOKING, there is an art store in Plaza Sing...called Madewithlove tat sells items 4 scrapbooking. For instance, if u find putting e fotos all in 1 album too boring, u may use specially designed papers + accessories n do a 'photo frame' of ur foto... with use of unique fonts/flowers/beads/ribbons/stickers etc. E mix n match gives it a very eccletic feel...definitely 4 e unconventional brides.
If hung on e wall, really makes e guests feel tat they hav entered into an art gallery.
Waz more, u can use pens 2 describe ur courtship...all waiting 2 b unfold.
(Very popular in e West...a sample of them can b found in 2008 edition of Her World Brides)

Tink its either 4th or 5th storey, near escalator. Popular @ Bras Basah oso offers such materials...

hi praisey,
Are u refering to the one with a high collar, deep v neck and ruffled bottom evening gown featured in the magazine? its a contemporary design and pretty too. I can't even shortlist one design that i like for the evening gown, guess the design for bigger size evening gowns are quite limited, some a bit outdated or really plain design....haiz
Hopefully i can lost some weight b4 the gown selection to get my desired gown:<

Nec,
My Bs is Silhouette. They have a tie-up with O studio, so all negotiations I wanna do, have to do it with O studio and not the BS. So anyways, Jaki from O studio says that top up by $1000 then get back all the pics. the best part is, all will be in high res!!
happy.gif
So was really really happy to hear that. I read that some BS die die also don't want to return the soft copy of the unselected pics, which I thought shouldn't be the case. They keep saying want to make your wedding day special but they don't practise what they say. Although I understand that it is becos they are worried that ppl dun top up so much if they get back the pics, but really, topping up by 1k is quite a lot already.

Hi MT, i have just added u.
happy.gif

Yes i have tried that, fits quite well, better than the EG that my mum picked. I think i look like a peacock. I didn't fancy it. So on 17th jan, i have to finalize by then. Most probably, i will have 1 WG and 2 EG for AD. 1 EG from my own collection.
Whose your co-ordinator from Marriott? Mine is annabel, i shd be in good hands.
Today i met the 5th AD photographer, shd be finalizing by next week.

Thanks PSH. It's does help. However, do you have any idea if it is necessary for my hubby to personally send the GSL items to my parent's place. As mentioned earlier, I think it is impossible for us to fly back just for that. We are residing in Australia.
Any one has suggestion on how we can do it the 'express' way?? HAHAH!

BTW, may I know what is the meaning of PS? I managed to figure out most of the shorter form... but not this

Cheers,
Emily

Hi to all,
I'm new here, received an email from Vinny Huang.
Many Thanks for the invitation.
Unfortunately, I'm not very into internet, havent got no friendster account.
My AD &amp; ROM are both on the same day on 07July08.
Dinner at Marina Mandrain, thought the perks are okay.
Dont intend to do any prewedding PS.
Dont have BS, all DIY.
Bought my WG through a thread here.
Havent signed AD photographer, but got someone in mind.
Havent got EG, dont know how? To tailor or not, no plans.
Looking around for MUA. Any recommendations?
Thats about all I've got so far.

Hi, moments

When i went yesterday at 2plus, all fitting room is full... Where did u go for gown fittings, 2nd floor changing room? Your gown fittings is long.. Haha.. Me only takes 2-3 hrs for my 1st gown fittings.
Guy suit is limited, my hubby takes less than 15 mins to chose. Haha..
Dily Makeup was nice! I've tried my final fittings before the PS on 15th Jan. Xiaoshi had altered my size when i tried two gowns were a bit loose.

Hi ladies,

My AD is on 23-Nov. Had just made the arrangements for the banquet. Had a hard time before finalizing on the venue. Most of the hotels are either booked or tentatively reserved for some couples.

Anyone with Sophia? Any idea of their services and designs etc? Can share? Thanks.

Been to Avana. The gowns are really nice. The prices are from $500 to $1,000. I love the beaded ones. However, they are too big for me so the ladies there do not recommend alteration for me as it is too much alteration for beaded materials, for fear of destroying the fabic.
Go check it out. I was also brought to their private showroom at 23rd floor.

If you like sequin stuff, Kakoo at Centrepoint carries dresses in the range of $400 to $700.
