j0yle: now that u mention, I think I've some impression of e place.. I think Siy's idea of borders's bistro's quite good too cos there's magazines to browse through! I guess we can confirm at e end of next week when e no. of pple's more or less confirmed?

Ladies, I showed my bestie my gown before returning them yst n to my horror, I found two 30cm long tear on 2 layers of my tulle which I didn't discover e previous time!!!! I was so guilty when i returned my gown yst.. told my designer abt e tears on my gown and asked him to take a look at my gown but to my surprise, he said he doesn't need to see it, he just said he'll mend my gown n it's normal tat gowns'll be torn when I bring it for outdoor shoots! I'm very happy that I don't need to pay for any damages...*phew!* If not I can't imagine e damages I've to pay.. Cheeros to sil!
 


pinkglove: i post the question to u on another thread if your gown suffered any tear from the PS before looking at this thread. keke.. Kenji is so nice to mend it for u at no cost. was your gown stain with any mud or sand?
 
i don't tink there's mud/sand since i didn't go to any beach for my PS.. but e innermost layer's black and i reckon it should be dirt? haha..but i did go by e rivers with stones n mosses i tink.. now tat u ask me, im not sure if those stains can be totally washed off also.. haha.. but kenji says nvm, still have a year to go.. lotsa time to mend my gown..haha

Hi Pinkglove... saw your pics in FB.. Scotland is so beautiful!!

Very nice of your designer to mend your gown with no extra costs.
 
Hi Jaslyn... Ive been to Grand Park City Hall once for wedding dinner. I remember that the place was quite beautiful and the food was not bad... hope this helps.
 
pinkglove: I loved the photos u've taken in your trip! Very beautiful.. now I also feel like going to Europe..

Jaslyn: I've recced GPCH before deciding my wedding venue.. The ballroom is very nice with its own reception area.. Just that I felt that the place will be quite squeezy for the number of tables I wantedl.
 
not too sure thou'...

most likely in town..

oh yah... tea cosy thou looks bit filled up with furniture... is a 45 seater cafe! so I think there's space for us..
 
juz my thoughts i been there @ Tea Cosy but its seems a bit squeezy cos cushion seats are not alot so some be on cushion while others on chairs...so if really there...i wanna a cushion seat reserved for me :p
 
Siy / clint: when u guys were seated in borders cafe that time, were u able to flip through the magazines over there freely? If yes, that's a good alternative too cos got ready resources available.. and if it's not a busy places means even without reservations, we should still be able to get a table?

Siy: bring along for discussions? so cute.. haha.. like going for project meeting lidat..I've a few bridal magazines which i can bring if that's wat u meant? haha..
 
pinkglove: the magazines are outside.. can't bring into the cafe.. so me & Siy just stood at the magazine racks & flipped thru the magazines.. haha

I don't know what to bring along leh.. :x
 
hi all, any confirmation on how many ppl going? i dun mind to make booking, but already lost count on who will come... i checked FB, only have 6 confirmed....
 
Siy>> i also thot of bringing some stuff.. like print copies of anything to share.. but i dunno what i have to share cos' i noe most of us are quite done with preps!

or some of our own research on guo da li? cos' that's the troublesome one.. if anyone is interested..
 
From what i know about GDL, based on bride's dialect and her parents requests:

normally will be bride price - the bride $$ that has to be agreed on before hand, canned pork trotters, xi bings (type depending on ur dialect), oranges and dragon-phoenix candles, either hard liquor or wine and some dried food stuff that mean good luck, happiness and many kids
 
forgot to add, part of the bride price n some xi bing will be returned to groom side to "show" that the bride's parents are not selling her off... # of boxes of xi bing will be dependent on how many relatives u need to give to...

if bride is teo chew, also the si dian jing will be given at GDL....
 
o ya, if ur family is pan tang, you need to get a special date for this as well.....from what i checked, the date taken from tong shu around 4-5 mths before AD

other things that u can add on... your wedding bed set, the lanterns that u will turn on and put at ur bed site on ur AD, your tea set......
 
Hi,
My wedding is at next year may but i am looking for BS right now.
Can any1 of you send me your bridal package list?
Thanks alot.
 
Hi jacqurine.. I had the same thoughts as you. I saw a pair of heels that I like alot and wanted to buy but I stopped myself coz my wedding is still so far away.
 
Phylline & doragal: It's on our FB top right hand corner, under the blue tab : Events ,alongside with other tabs like wall, Info, Discussions etc. There u are see e details ;) anyway, so far it's 7pm @ Teacosy @ Plaza Sing at e moment.. I think there were a few other suggestions like Orchard central & Borders bistro. ;)

sapphire: e impractical me bought 2 pairs of shoes for my PS and they are SUPER dirty now...initially only bought 1 pair den a few days b4 my PS, i saw another pair i super love so just bought it! I haven clean them yet..dunno if e stains can be cleaned off or not.. n ya, by right shoes shouldn't be bought too early cos some materials might just peel off..
 
pinkglove, I cannot find my shoes... nothing I've seen was my liking until yesterday... T_T but that was the last pair at Tangs Vivocity... hopefully other branches have a new pair of my size...
 
Cow: did u leave ur contacts w tangs? I often buy shoes from tangs n they'll call me back usually when shoes in my size arrives,quite prompt. ;) u still have 3more months to buy ur shoes?
