ixoral/karine82>> I'm wif SG Bridal, they're located nxt to crystal crown hotel not too far away frm custom.
They're still wrking on their website
http://www.sgbridalhouse.com/
Alternative u can join us at
http://www.singaporebrides.com/forumboard/messages/1/344856.html?1213532562
and u'll see wat their brides comment abt them.
My m'sian colleagues advise that i dun go to those city square bridal shop coz they will "chop" if they know u're s'porean
and the quality is nt that gd but that's up to individual.
At first when bf suggest that we have a look at m'sia BS..i was like huh...so orbang, so troublesome, so dangerous. i was so anti abt it but no choice juz go to entertain him. haha but to my surprise they're really gd some are even better than s'pore BS.
I've actually shortlisted 3 at that area which is SG bridal, Venus & Fables which i serach frm SG brides & M'sia Brides forum.
My 1st stop is SG Bridal, they give us a very "at home" feel, they are not pushy but very friendly, they cater the package to our need and throw in alot of nice freebies. I fall in love with their album & gowns stright away in fact wanted to sign on the spot..
but bf remind me that i have to check out Venus too..haha so we tell them straight that we actually want to have a look at Venus too, but to my surprise she say...we should compare a few more and choose something that we like and feel comfortable with
and even comment that they're gd and they're very famous among the m'sian & s'porean.
So we went on to check Venus out, their photographer served us, indeed very nice gowns in fact their signature gowns
are nicer than SG bridal, nice album & they have 7 lovely theme of background to choose frm where else SG onli have 5??
but most of the album is more or less the same design, pattern even hairstyle of the brides and they're nt too flexible
when come to freebies. 1 thing to my disappointment is that their website pics is so nice but i happen to browse through
a bride multiply pic...it totally look diff, the background of that theme look so fake, the others is ok.
And they charge RM30 for hairstylings.
By the time we finish with Venus it's too late to visit Fables coz b4 the 2 BS i actually walk-in to I DO wedding & 1 more BS nxt to Venus but they were out...So we went back to SG Bridal and we still receive the very friendly welcome frm them. No regrets!
My frd who visited the 3 BS through my recommendation comment that Fables gowns is better than Venus...but ended up
signing with SG bridal coz he say my co-ordinator is very friendly, flexible and most important the package is very reasonable.
He sign up for the RM3888 package, convert to SIN it's ard S$1650.
Christy>> Ya, i have to agree that some m'sia bridal shop have hidden charges and certain things they dun include in the package, so we must really calculate properly. So far SG & Venus package is quite comprehensive, juz that they dun provide AD MUA
and AD Car. We'll be using our own car so not too much of an issue.
My BS are very flexible, they even include my ROM package at no additional cost.
mrswang>> There's always pros & cons of malaysia bridal.
1. Their package is at half price but we get exactly wat we get in s'pore.
2. Topping up of photos / pose will be at half price, i've check out s'pore top up is S$85-90 but theirs is RM85-RM90.
3. They are all crosspages with digital effect. I have a frd who sign up at s'pore for 3K + but she only get 4 pages of digital effect.
1. You have to travel ard 6-8 times depend on how you plan your trip. 1st to Sign up; 2nd to choose gowns; 3rd to try fitting; 4th for PS; 5th to choose photos, 6th to tie AD car, collection of gowns & album; 7th to return gowns.I personally dun find it troublesome coz we juz take it as a trip to spend our weekend.
2. Their package dun include AD MUA, AD Car and AD PG/VG, wic some s'pore BS dun include too.
3. Some find it dangerous to go in, but we feel that as long as you dun dress like a rich tais tais u wouldn't be a target.
4. Some BS will "chop" coz they know we're s'porean, but i can say that my BS never.
Other than that i can't think of anything that is no gd abt going over.
