Hi florabliss, we are definitely happy for you too.
Hi Jeannie, I am doing wedding lunch at MM on a Sunday as well. There are a few reasons for doing so:
(1) My FFIL needs to help out at a temple on Sunday evenings. So by having lunch, he can invite his peers from the temple and can resume his temple activity in the evening.
(2) By the time we decide to source for AD venue, most of the better venues are taken up on our AD for dinner. Lunch venue is so much easier to find.
Since both sides' parents are ok, we went ahead to source for lunch venue. None of my friends or colleagues have given less favourable comments about wedding lunch. In fact, I think it is getting more common nowadays. Do keep an open mind for lunch, just in case it is very difficult to get dinner venue.
Hi nec & msclaire, I find Simon quite easy to get along. Think I have to charge him advertisement fee. Since I have signed up, my colleague and friend are going to use him as well. Hehehe... msclaire, when you book with Simon, do check with him whether he can do the video for you on your AD. If so, ask him to put down in the invoice.
Let me "advertise" for my other PG, Thomas Tan as well. For all out there who haven't decide on the PG, you may want to consider him. His style is to do coffeetable album with as many photos (400-500)which tells a story. He also took pre-wedding photos for another friend in Bali. Very nice! Too bad I am very lazy to do ala carte. If not, I will ask him to do the pre-wedding shots for me as well. His website is:

Btw, I went to Mama & Misse at IP yesterday. Some of their CS and gowns are on 50% off till the end of the month. Bought a full lace long CS at less than S$200 after discount and another normal material short one at less than S$100 after discount. The long CS is really worth it! Maybe only need to alter the collar to make it smaller.
