(2008) Brides of year 2008

[kjustina81]

Hi Korice,

My BTO is at Seng Kang, Fernvale, 4-rm flat. waited for 3 yrs liao ... est finish date is 2008 3rd Quarter. But still so far ... sigh ...

 

[xinyi_reiko]

korice, marriott i tried their food twice, i feel so-so only. And, I personally don't like their ballroom entrance (the square square thingy.)

I only shortlist 3 hotels - inter-con, hyatt and oriental.

Inter-con, very nice ballroom. But too bad pricing abit steep. Because my AD date happens to fall on their auspicious date. Hyatt, my dream place, no doubts on their food and deco. Simply love it. heh~ Oriental, lowest price among the 3 hotels, i have shortlisted. Attractive perks also. Only concern is the deco. hmm...

 

[xinyi_reiko]

Justina, i feel that there is no right or not. Brides tend to be fussy eh. I can understand A's POV. It is like she is planning so hard, doing many research and B just listen from her, leeching A's ideas. I do feel abit unfair to A.

All brides dream to have unique wedding. At least, something different from others.

 

[korice]

xinyi.. it's just a thot lah.. my first time there thot food was great.. now also so-so.. and i LOVE oriental's food.. hehehee..

justina.. your situation very interesting leh.. erm.. how about telling B tat bali is nicer? hahaa.. when's the AD dates for both? how much has been done?

nec.. say you love me bah.. tucky tie-in with:
- flamingo
- tan yoong
- ted wu
- angels atelia
only 4 BS..
love me? hehehee...!!! anyway.. all ex ex one..

next on my to-find list:
SEAMTRESS!!
anyone can recommend?

 

[beachgirlz]

sure justina. shall wait for ur pics

ok korice i shall ask hehe. i'm not getting raffles hotel to march in with the horse carriage, juz for PS nia.

justina i tink i'm more on the side of ur fren A too. u mentioned 2 close frens of urs. are they close frens too?

 

[beachgirlz]

korice u wan seamtress for? i thot bc can do all the needlework for u? by the way u and joanne in bc's thread.. got any pics of the bc brides tat u all noe can share with me? i wanna see more of bc's pics..

 

[kjustina81]

Yeah ... all brides will want theirs to be unique & special. Woman are especially fussy on this ...

A's FH not much comments but have to support his wife (if not will hv trouble haha) but he did comment how come same as theirs ... i.e. his AD suit is white so they found a place sell white shoes ... than B's FH AD suit also white so ask them where they bought the white shoes .... then B came back tell A that she bought the white shoes frm same place at a cheaper price frm A ... A pissed she was like 'tell me cheaper to show off is it?!?!'

 

[xinyi_reiko]

Alamark korice, make me feel more tempted in signing up with oriental, the coordinator haven get back to me leh.. *keep finger crossed*. =/

justina.. heng friend B does not have the same wedding date as A. If not, A sure very pissed off.. haha..

 

[korice]

val.. how abt the zoo? they have leh.. i see in some bridal mag before.. looks nice..

 

[korice]

xinyi.. really.. if price & perks ok.. the food is really.. *YUMMY* but den again.. must know tat all events will have differences one lah.. heh..

justina.. if i were A, i'd have told off B straightaway.. & not tell her anything.. the shoes thingy really very off..

impt qn: who's AD first? A or B?

bc brides ar.. mainly on friendster lor.. and this one:
http://kristinderek.weddingannouncer.com/

bc will do the 2 main dresses.. i want more!! hahahaa.. thinking of making 1 more dress to bring aussie.. & for another PS by my fren (she using us as guinea pigs).. & also i need to make 3 - 4 jie mei dresses.. BUT.. ALL WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH THEY COSTS..

heheee..

 

[korice]

hello lara.. fellow june btb!! wat abt your BS?

 

[korice]

hello swee ling.. how's your prep work so far?

 

[hapimint]

haha... i think i be pissed too... if I am A... my SO actually wanted to ask a close friend of mine to hold her wedding on the same date as us... cos he thought to save cost and also makes it special.. Then my friend says no cos she dun wan to marry so early... but I am open to share ideas.... haha...
Anyway, I went to look for flats in Woodlands... my SO parents live there... so well, have to move there lor... haha....

 

[kjustina81]

A 's AD will be first, so tell her even if pple say copy is B copy her's la ... like trying to appease her lor ....

A, B & me all close frens (10yrs ++ friendship)

Korice - yr that bali method i tried liao (ha great minds think alike) I even tried persuade her to take other locations but failed ....

Since their wedding so close A won't be able to attend B's wedding due to the 3mths rule ...

 

[korice]

huh.. but really.. at least A's wedding is earlier.. den ppl can say abt B's one lor.. tat's the best option now le bah.. so sad.. hahaa.. yeah man.. great minds think alike.. try & divert lor.. tat's the best le.. the shoes thingy, if i were her, i'll give another place.. keke..

you all serious abt the 3 months thingy ar? who believe, hands up!

 

[kjustina81]

[necrosis]

wah seh...
you all no need work ones ah?

korice...seamstress hor...i think if you do a quick search on this forum can pull our quite a few...

val,
i saw MBR studio shots, LOTS AND LOTS of chandeliers...
some JB BS also have those vic style furniture (and costumes) consider doing 1 more PS?


justina, poor dear...
*hugs*
not good to be caught in the middle like that...but that B is quite too much also...
cut and paste...
she don't find it horrible meh?
even we all here, discuss so much, all still have our own ideas and wants...and drool products...(jacuzzi, kelvin, raffles, chandelier)
B needs more personality of her own in her wedding...else it's gonna be so boring...then you've to attend both!!! see the same pattern in 3 mths!!! *faint*
maybe you can tell B something along the lines of personalizing her wedding to make it extra special for her and FH and her guests?

 

[necrosis]

korice...
i lllluuurrrrrvvvveeeee you...
so tucky's only hangs out with the Ex pple lah..
i passed by angels on sat...saw some gowns...eyes pop out...cos so awful ...
oops.
not my style lah. hehehe

val,
zoo/birdpark have very very nice deco leh...
i was really thinking of one of those...
then can arrive on elephant (indian style) or horse drawn carriage...
i think they have a bit victorianish theme also in their deco...

as for horses....i think super SUPER ex bah...
korice sponsor ah?
might as well sponsor the banquet!!! ehehehehe...or the Aussie PS...then i can fly with you for 11 days also!! tada!
seriously, i think the horses wil be bullied, pulling in a carriage with me (so heavy + heavy gown) + FH (also heavy)....
let's not promote cruelty to animals...haha..

i think my first choice/love is still raffles..
maybe intercon...see their show in june...
anyone wanna go???

 

[necrosis]

for those who wanna do PS at korices house,
i offer my PG services...
with lotsa props n nonsense poses...hehehe...
half price of kelvin only!!!
his is 3800$, mine is 1900$, but since we are friends,
$1000 only!!! limited time offer!!!

 

[necrosis]

hey, if you all walk past raffles,
do wonder around inside...
have nice fountains in courtyards here and there...
dun go to just the shopping area...
go deeper inside...
then when you are surrounded, you'll not see any skyscrappers,
just foliage and the quaint colonial raffles hotel...
very comfy, easy feeling...and not hot even tho i was there at 5pmish...shady trees...
cooling fountains...

oh, chijmes is another on my list...hehehe...
suddenly like i just anyhow increase my budget...HAHAH....cannot let FH know...hehehe

 

[beachgirlz]

nec.. zoo got victorian theme meh? i really must go email them. i got walk ard raffles leh but cant rem wad's inside le.. only saw their ballroom pics recently and love their deco.

 

[hapimint]

Korice, haha... going to overseas for PS, got one major problem is that we will want all the pictures and the BS always charge so much extra for each picture... haha....
We asked for a few quotes in Singapore... too ex... so in the end, we decide to hire in paris...
Anyway, PS where also quite okay lar... my sister never really take out her album nowadays....

 

[korice]

HI VAL, NEC & KORICE! Lolz

Justina...A sound so like me. Haha... I have a gf who is like that. But I dont care about her. Becoz I am very flickle minded. If I told her about my plans, the kind of gown, hairdo that I like, the next moment... I heard that she also like, then I changed again. Lolz! I think is wiser... not to be involved in both party, just tell them nicely that the wedding belongs to them and so long they happy can liao.

Xinyi...choose Hyatt if you got the budget! Smucks 100times to Hyatt. I simply love it man! But I heard is expensive. But hor... oriental also good, never tried their food (only the breakfast) *Blink Blink* Their rooms... super!

Val, I am not active in the BC thread becoz the pple there usually talk among themselves, not like us so super friendly *Opps* But korice, you agree with me right? Haha... so sorry... val, i got no pic for you to see, the one that i have is the same as Korice (who have given you the link already).

Korice...me so excited. My application for my flat the result is goooooooing to be out in mid May. You got pray for me o not? I need the flat, if not i rent your house. Lolz.

So qiao ... My post is in the Stats & Research team (Ha!)

 

[pekkleduck]

Thank you .... ladies!!! Val, I will also pray for your hse.

Nec, I heard you LOUD AND CLEAR!!! Nec, by the time my house renovate finish, it will only be ready for PS for the 2009 brides. Haha... Maybe we get Korice to rent out her hse for PS first, then we help her to introduce customer to PS at her hse, and we gain certain commission from her, so that we can go oversea PS? How abt that?

 

[kjustina81]

Actual Day photography? Videography?

Guest list can have a rough idea & have to start chasing both side parents for names of relatives liao ... usually they will drag & drag till too late !!
