Hi everyone, could someone help me? I have three growns on actual day ( doing soleminsation before wedding banquet) - one wg, one eg, and one tea dress. Does it mean that morning, i wear my WG den when go to my parent house i wear tea dress. Then at night during solemisation i wear back my WG, den lastly second march in wear my EG? I see my package and realise i didnt ask for additional growns. Is this the norm?

hi hui shan,

Sigh...I was keen in Marina Mandarin too..but after much discussion and comparison of packages yesterday, had to leave it out from my list.
It costs $1038nett per table for the date that you are looking at..oh yes, they'll be having a wedding show in April if you are interest!

Hi Hui shan, try calling all the hotels you like and then check the dates, let say 31st Jan.. Then shortlist from there.. Alot of brides are getting married before Chinese New Year.. I called mostly all and then shortlist from there as most hotels are already booked. What is your preferred date and how many tables?

Hello, finally ... i managed to secure the Novotel on 23rd Jan. will be going thru the contract and shd be confirming by this week
happy.gif
that date is really a headache.. more like a auspicious date for hotels than couples .. since they are the one earning $$$$

btw what is the advisable time to go down to try the gown and do the wedding photoshoot if the wedding is on Jan next year?

Hi Katherine, Great to hear that you have secured a hotel on 23rd Jan, my master also gave me 23rd as well.. hehe.. For trying of growns, you should visit bridal studio in April/May time to do selection of growns. Sometimes it is hard to find something you like if you are taking OTR. Then if you are into MTM growns, the design should be decided by June as they need a longer time to tailor your growns. Then around August, start your photoshot! =) This is the schedule my studio provided me. =)

hey Evergreen.. it is very expensive! i m requesting for more and many perks... seriously... i got another choice and is cheaper.. but i have to say i like Novotel alot....

I called up alot of hotels and so many are booked on 23rd Jan.. the fact is I can find "empty" hotels is a blessing already!

Haiz dun say liao... i am still discussing with my bf and both families abt the venue. Need to confirm by tml also (or later in the afternoon).

My coordinator is Ann from Marina. Helen is the Make up artist from Yishun. Likely to get the gowns from Yishun as there are more selections there.

Hi Hui shan, i am looking at Grand Ballroom in OCC.. The ballroom is big and pretty and i am looking at opening two function rooms outside the ballroom for my solemnisation on AD. I went to Sheraton and on the same level of the grand ballroom itself, there is another couple holding banquet on the same day in one of the function rooms.. i dun really like tat.. =) How about you, remember to tenatively reserved the place you like..
