qi: lol~ i also not very sure~ coz neva buy that from BA~ but their oxygen and hydrating is very good~~

Xinrou: they usually mark up like mad~ my fren who used to be working at a beauty salon says that the cost price for them is like $1+ only~~

 

[meteor_starry]

Vivi: Ok.thanks for your suggestion.. will try going down to Ted Collection to see their cheongsam...so far I went to Wilson at MaxCouture, Zion creation, Tan Tan at Shaw, and few bridal studios, kind of tempted to rent off the rack than tailor make...afraid it will just be another ornamental piece in the wardrobe

 

[melody_fav]

xinrou: ya u compare, $2.8 - 3.50 for an ampoule to $35? which one more worth? ofc u better check with ur BS whether if they still charge for applying the ampoule.. heard fr fren, some do charge lo.. so u compare..

queen: i bought a few various.. lol..

 

[cavs]

Hi Xinrou, the bs i visited also quoted me $35 though I know BS usually quote $25. Anyway, I read in other threads tt ampoules are only sold at $1+ per vial so Im intending to buy for my PW and AD..

 

[melody_fav]

cavs: u must check lo.. cos i read tat BA's vital was fr germany wor.. n some was forulated fr germany but make in malaysia or wat tats y cheaper..

I see tat BA got gd reputations n testimonal tats y i get from them.. cos its applied to our skin esp face so better be careful.

Conrad brides: conrad theme got wat colours arh? i intend to make some wrist corsages for a fren whom holding her wedding at conrad next feb.

her gowns are of purple theme.. so thinking of using burgardy foam rose ( as in the pics). but nt sure if match anot. can help to share ur views?

 

[lokiewedslydia]

hi lovebliss!

i like this purple shade but i dunno abt the green leaves..
mus those be ther?

 

[melody_fav]

hi, lydia:
its ready-made one.. the green leaves shd be there mah.. then its more like a rose.. lol..
ya this is more of like red wine - dark purple one.. i hope this can blend in to her conrad ballroom deco theme

 

[cherrypudding]

heya love bliss - i dunno if conrad has changed their theme but the last i know when i signed up with them in may this year was the following:
1. black and fushia
2. champagne, gold, white that type
u can ask them to inter-mix btn the colours as well.. so ur friend can ask for champagne and fushia or in whichever combination.. depending on what she likes. i think the foam roses u have are nice for wrist corsages

wah, didnt know ampoules cost-price so cheap leh!! BS take us as 'cai-tou!' sia.. hur hur.. for those who have used it for PS, does it really help though?

@ queen queen: ^5. i think the colours we have in mind are identical! keke.. m going for a yellow/orange in the day and thnking purply at nite. but scare purply will turn out too dark/ ugly coz of the banquet hall lightings (u know, those yellowish orangish colour).. so still planing the ideas before askng for my jie-meis' opinions.

 

[pocarisweat]

lovebliss: conrad only hv two themes *boring* .. champagne (white roses) or scarlet (red roses) .. u can check with ur frd which theme she used ...

ur DIY r sooooo lovely .. wish i m talented. but i doubt it .. hahah ..

 

[melody_fav]

vivi: i think she shd be using champagne if im nt wrong.. =) will post up in fb once done.. thanks for ur complimentary n encouraging me to do DIY even more..

x-chua: im thinking white and purple also nice.. cos inview to my ballrm theme.. got 1 is like pink n purple.. i shd be choosing that..

 

[pocarisweat]

lovebliss: i think foam flowers are nice. . as the bride and jiemeis can be kept as momento after the wedding ..

 

[melody_fav]

this is my intention =) keke

 

[pocarisweat]

X Chua: was it you who mention thots of engaging a wedding planner? a colleague hired joelle from sedan of love for her wedding ... she gave gd review of her services ... u can go check out http://www.sedanoflove.com/

Hi all,

I am also a Oct BTB. Am sourcing for AD PG and VG now. Any one has any recommendation? I am setting aside $2 to $3K for it. Do-able with the budget?

Any advice?

 

[queenie82]

Hi Ling! 2-3k should be ok for most PG and VG.. also depends on the no. of hours and services required. I've booked my AD VG and PG with Muse + Hues for less than 2k....

Maybe you would like to search the forum and singaporebrides directory for some names and go into their websites/fb pages to see if you like their style before emailing them for quotations based on your requirements.....

 

[snowmelody]

Hi Queen Queen, thanks for ur advice. Would be able to share the package for Muse + Hues with me? Can PM me?

 

[queenie82]

Ling,

PMed you.

 

[snowmelody]

Hi Queen Queen,

Thanks much. My AD is on weekday

 

[anniequeen]

Hi Queen Queen,

Can forward me the package for Muse+Huse too?

Thanks!

 

[jellycheese8]

[queenie82]

Jim,

You've got a flat alrdy? if have then wait loh~ if not~ keep balloting..... then again, ballot liao still got to wait for another 3 yrs b4 it's ready~

I'm also staying with in-laws 1st, until i get a flat... now waiting to choose flat from the Sale of Balance flats in punggol~~ My hubz is the eldest and only son, but lucky not a mummy boy loh.. My FPIL and his 2 younger sisters also not difficult to get along with, so it is a relief to me also~~

Annie, you do not accept pte msg, gimme ur email?

 

[michi]

Hi Ling, a welcome to u

When is ur AD and have u confirm the venue?

Hi Jim...long time no see =) Where is ur love nest? I'm already staying with my inlaws for a yr, my bto shld be ready by 2012...Though my hubby is nt mama boy but there are times that he is caught in between. So far so good, for me...less coversation = less conflicts

Queen, if u're getting sale of balance unit, chances that ur love nest will be faster than our bto, don't worry

 

[snowmelody]

I have also balloted for the SBF in SK.
