No worries 0204 =)
Good luck with your research! =)
Don't take too long though coz you need to give time allowance for your photoshoot and stuff also =)

wow suddenly the thread has livened up already! suddenly so much input! :D

0204: u like princessy ball gowns then u can try French Bridal. if u look at the table u'l realise that 3 BTBs on 06 Dec 09 are with French Bridal. But do proper research before u decide on any 1 BS. i was told AFTER i booked, that u're supposed to walk-in and test their services. Important thing to look out for when u look at BS packages is, for me, 1) whether u like the gowns. 2)whether u like the photography style. (but this can change according to ur photorgrapher assigned for ur PS). I think price wise, for most BS, is negotiable. If they give u a package that is for example, $3688, but u don't need bridal car, u don't need teadress, u don't need the small album, u don't need etc etc etc.. then i'm sure they can replace/remove it from the package. while signing up at roadshows gives u price discounts, u are disadvantaged by the fact that u don't get to try gowns, touch gowns, see the condition of the real gowns, see other BTBs who are there for fitting, hear their gripes or compliments etc. coming from someone who signed up at roadshow, my advice is, walk along tanjong pagar road where all the BS are, then saunter into 1 of those that u already ID-ed while doing ur background research. see live activity then u can tell for urself their customer service standards

oh ya, n cos u're petite size, what my coordinator mentioned is that, if u're petite, don't bother MTM ur gowns. most gowns OTR are within the range of 24" to 29". so if u can fit into these gowns, don't spend extra MTM. because what u think may look nice and u like the cut, might not look nice when u actually wear it, cos our bodies are different. if ur designer is the kind who just do whatever u say to please u, then u might be disappointed when u finally wear the final product. by then it's too late, cannot change much! only alter length etc.

hi yoyo! *waves* welcome aboard the 6th Dec 09 gang. haha. anyway, u haven't booked ur banquet ah.. better book man.. that time when i finally booked in Sep, already quite alot of places not available for dinner. Dec is hot time for weddings, and 6th Dec is listed auspicious. do hurry to book ur PG&VG for AD also.

Hi Catherine, welcome!

Happens that i know someone who's having AD at M-Hotel on 6th Dec too.. n urs is 26th. Anyway, welcome to Dec 09 thread.

Hi Bride to be,

For me, my tea cermony will also be held at the hotel itself... not because i'm having wedding lunch or wat.. but because i have a weird timing for "stepping" into my IL place.. which is like 4:15pm in the evening.. so imagine the kind of rush i will have...

so i decide to shift my relatives tea cermony to the hotel, so its easier for them... besides, can make them come earlier so no need to wait for them to start the dinner... hee... one stone 2 bird... :p

i'm planning to start my tea ceremony at about 7:15pm at the reception area since its quite big at the hotel i'm holding my banquet.. which will last to about 8pm the latest.. then i will go up just to change into my WG and get ready for 1st march in... (makeup will be done before the tea-cermony)...

hope that help you...

andrea > yes hopefully can decide on BS by this month if not next.

Pebbles > my sis signed up for french bridal. but according to her, only after signing up and recent choosing of gowns, she find their gowns not to her liking n variety like not alot. maybe diff pp ve diff opinions/ taste. yes, will go n test their svc n see for myself. btw, i tink road shows are not so good as most sales pp are very pushy n i tink e prices doesnt vary too much compared to walk in (someone correct me if i m wrong). re OTR or MTM, if i can find sth i like OTR i will probably take that as first, save $; second u oredi know wat e outcome will look like!

For sure i'm certain Eva is the one for me...i proposed 7 months after we got together...but deep down inside i know it's her already. it's a feeling that cannot be described but only felt...i'm sure many here will understand wat i mean...

desjO, u noe after the 2nd March In, we have to invite family members up the stage for the champagne toasting right? I was thinking of getting them to march in before me (sequence will be my hubby's grandparents, then parents, then my grandparents, and my parents) and go up the stage to welcome us when standing on the stage...

So now I see the idea of presenting flowers... Hee... When we go up the stage, I think we can give our thank you speech first, then present the flowers (ok, will get something for the men!), then proceed with yum seng! HAha... Hmm... sounds not too bad.

I used to know it deep down inside that he's the one too... I think as the years go by, I feel more and more jaded... Now I'm not as confident or sure anymore. Or maybe I'm just facing mid-life crisis. Hahahahahaaa!!!

Thanks Josie.:)

I have a question for those who have had their PS. Is it a must to have a bouquet of flowers? I went ala-carte in my wedding preparations so i would have to source for flowers too. Does the pictures look more complete with flowers? Thank you girls!

Hi ahBlur,

I intend to skip videography and go for photography and montage. He has actually briefed us on the whole flow if we do not have videography. We find it quite good thus decided to sign up with him. =)

personally, I feel that after paying so much, we should do it till 'perfection'. That means even after 2nd round of food tasting and you still find it not acceptable, you should ask for the 3rd round.

It's better than your guests complaining to you. Just sharing my point of view...

0204: ya lor, so that's y it's good to go down n sign up from the BS directly instead of roadshow. cos u walk-in u get to see their collection. now i'm just crossing my fingers and toes n hope that i can find stuff that i like from FB.

piggylover: u like Jazz gowns? Jazz is actually a subsidiary of French. Apparently if u sign up with Jazz, u can't choose gowns from French. But if u sign with French, u can choose from Jazz too.

Hello, you should book your church early. Now is getting a little late, church counseling for Catholics have to book at least 6mths in advance. As its a compulsory program now, the seat numbers are limited.

lam,
maybe you can try to arrange with your coordinator to have a reharsal two weeks b4 your AD.. to run the montage and your march-in song. Cos if you do it on your AD itself, it's quite rush..
Just my opinion..

As for me...

I did not give Suntan time to "Consider" or "Reconsider" when I proposed.

If she gave me a 'NO' when I proposed... I told myself that I would either shut her oxygen tank or mine and stay on the seabed for good!!

haha!! =P

Hi PK

Yes it may seem nice to have flowers for PS at least for the photoshoot however if you have other nice soft toys or balloons I think that will be able to substitute that as well.

That is how I feel.

Hi PK,

My view is a bouquet will be good for at least the studio shots. Cos i feel tat the flowers add some colours for indoor shots... for outdoor shots, the greenery &amp; scenery already add to the vibrancy...

Btw, i'm having my PS tomorrow... i'm so looking forward to it!!! =)

good morning everyone...

thks aroh for putting up the pics ytd...
happy.gif


hmm, elyse...have u spoken to him before? sometimes tis kind of things once in a while u will feel it...wat i'm trying to say is, how long have u been with ur bf? sometimes when it's v long, u will tend to feel the down...perhaps u both shd recreate the moment of romance again...

many a time, when many things happen at the same time, we tend to lose focus of wat the whole thing is all abt...it could be in tis instance...like i said, it could be but it may not be as well...only u know urself...

i guess it's always easier to say, dun tik so much...give urself so much stress etc...however, maybe u have to ask urself, r u happy with him...n many more other questions...i guess also, imptly it's not so much of whether u r happy when u r with him...it's more of r u happy...i mean tis in a whole perspective..

hi 0204,

maybe you want to try Bridal Concept? it's everything in a package - PS, bridal car + car deco, gowns (WG, DG, tea dress, Kua etc.), Groom's suits, pants, Father and FIL coats, Mother and MIL dress (think need to nego for this), bouquet, makeup, hairdo, guest book, 1 big album, 1 small album, 1 tabletop frame etc... their package now is $3,288 if i remember correctly. excludes AD PG and VG. but they provide PG if you want, at additional rate of course. look for Big Sally, the coordinator. she's very nice.

hope this helps!
