meiling,
you must wear your tiaras ah!!!
after all, you're the shopping queen woh.
(and makes it easier for me to recognize, since only one girl in the whole restaurant will be wearing a tiara!!)

lol...
everyone around us will be like wow, hen's night and all are btbs!!!
lol.

oh, you all see me must shout ah.
not only am i bad with faces, i'm quite blur too.
(i've gotten into the wrong car, fell into an open man hole, hold some stranger's hand... among other blur things)
 
Hi Pin, thanks! Would appreciate the contact. For me, I like simple designs, so anything goes, but HTB wants a comfort-fit band. I guess if we get from a shop, need to make sure they have the size in stock before buying.

Leely, I went by Tommyprint yesterday! (shopping for Father's Day at Funan). The photobooks look really good and they have this offer ongoing- I think it's $206 or something like that for a set of a A4 hardcover photobook and a A6 softcover, same design.
happy.gif
I think I will be taking up the package for my AD photos. Did you use their imac software, or give them your own design?
 
Thanks, Rach. Will go look for pens in Popular on Sat too.

B@rworks is at Chinatown Point. They're just a small shop with lots of alcohol piled in. No real shop front for customers to sit around and drink. Should be getting the 16 + wine as both FH and I felt it was good enough. Although Winebos was more professonal, we liked the service at B@rworks better.
 
hi lynn,
I did my nail at posh diva too haha perhap next time can chio you..btw, what did u do for the PS?

I agree not to do anything fanciful cos only on AD den will ppl notice the nail...
Sue,
Dont get too moody.. Everything will turn out find.. treat this trip as a learning experience.. maybe u have time to do some shopping there.. who know?
 
I actually custom made the a design I saw at Love & Co. The limited edition signature piece which they advertise on the banner. My piece is abou S$820 with the diamond trimming and is comfort fit. Guy's one with 1 diamond is not ready yet hence I dunno the price. Estimate is about S$600. The original piece at the store for mine costs abt S$1800.

U can contact Emilyn from Josi Gems at 63387423 and say Serene recommend u. Their office is located at Park Mall #08-15. Pls call to make appt before going down cos they operate short hours only.

Earthsea, if u like simple designs, u probably will consider the eternity designs from T & Co, Cartiers and etc. Josi Gems is every good at this. Thumbs up for the workmanship! U will love it! The best part is they calculate the price of the ring based on the market price for diamonds and gold hence u can see the cost break down. Hence we save on advertisement cost... kekeke...

Also, Emilyn very patience and is not hard sell. Hence nede not worry of being pressured. In fact, she might still advise u to go back consider if time permits. Very honest lady! (^_^)
 
Earthsea>> I used their Mac to do the layout.. Sat at the shop for many hours to do it..
happy.gif


pin&jie>> Wow, you actually managed to get a Love & Co design for cheaper.. I bought my ring directly from Love & Co.. didn't bother to try to look for cheaper alternatives.. hehe..
 
i confirmed wine connection last weekend.. 19 per bottle.. but not on cosignment basis.. we will keep the wines if we have any excess.. we didnt try the wine (we bought and will open this weekend for tasting)..
 
thanks pin&jie
actually i am now helping my sister in law to prepare her wedding in december...so hopefully can gain more info from BTBs here...
 
one more question, they not going to have morning session, maybe just evening banquet session, anyone got recommendations for half day photography? thanks.
 
Dear ladies,

Just want to check it out how many Hongbaos I need to set aside for all the helpers.

How much do you all want to give? If I missed out anything, feel free to add. Thanks alot

Nelle,
Yup the very first fish &amp; co in singapore it still around./... it has become an icon i think will be silly if the management decide to move else where.. The "LOVE" is a tourist icon... used to think tt will be a good place for PS..

y dun u wear sth outstanding n striking so dat we can recognise u frm a distance? hehehe...den d grp can shout to u :P
 
waxie> yah.. need to get denominations..else how to prepare and bao?? then sure not enough de.. hahah...
happy.gif

koyoyo,

crown:
did you get it from the showroom beside weares? we went there to take a look also but find the SA rather pushy so we did got get from there.

Btw, my auntie said the GDL items is inside the market of lor 7. Maybe can go there rackie
happy.gif
 
i tink angbao is up to individual to give..
if u tink e person is close to u, u give more..if not give less lo
as long all the angbao got lucky number or even number
eg: $28, $48, $68, $88, $168, etc..
 
neko> yup... PG is my cousin in law... he say just give AP... but then cannot be too niao also la.. so see how.. it may go up or down alos.. haha..depending on what we have in the end.... this is the best at this moment in time.

not charging me free.. its not charging me la. haha... and since then.. i've refered 20++ customers to him liaoz..his schedule is sooo packed in Sept loh. haha..

crown> Mmm...as a form of respect for the elderly... we are hokkiens.. give more nobody will say anything..dun give then people will nag.. so give loh... give on AD loh.. when he comes...he see my parents..he'll give loh.. and his grandparent i think is when we see them at his house ba.. during tea ceremony ??
 
and yup...up to individual.. but not nice to give too little also.. but we would like to give more to our helpers if we didnt have 12 each! faint.. very xiong loh..is started with much more.. but realised we'll be dead by then.. so cut cut cut....
 
Eh, abit weird when we serve them tea, they give us hongbao and then we give them ours?? like exchanging hongbaos, hehe
 
meiling, haha thanks u still rememeber me tat time u guess so long also cannot guess who am i.

nec, maybe u wear something veri special and outstanding then we surely can shout at u frm a distance.

koyoyo, is this newly open at cityhall never heard b4?
 
fionachua,
yah lor....wah really funnie when i recall...cosi remember ur face but juz couldnt fit a name to ur face....now i remember v clearly le....
oh dat shodoku is at basement, it operates similar to marche wif a punch card n various counters for u to order ur food....i went there to recce b4, havent eat there b4 yet but i heard dat d food is so-so :P
 
I din know must give parents and grandparents wor... I'm hokkein but never heard of the custom. i din know must give angbao to coordinator too...
 
crown> eh.. nono.... give them when we see them...something like that la.. i also dunno.... hhhahhha...

yl> coordinator is a token of appreciation...of coz can dun give la....check with ur parents loh...
 
ask you hor. Main coordinator's duty is to do what? i'm trying to find someone to help me but i need to let her know what she need to do
 
koyoyo>I haven't attended any gathering here yet so no one saw my bui bui tummy and arms. The other day when FH was helping me spring clean my clothes, he saw my cellulite for first time. Ask me why look like that then happily tell me he don't have. -_-;;

Stylemart is nice but quite expensive!

FH and I tried Shokudo. Ok ok nia. Food is normal price but quality is nothing special and quantity quite little.
 


So rachel,

we give before they give us but i think we will not have a chance lor. i wonder how we differentiate when all the hongbaos are in different amount sia. Sure blur one. haha
