[strikingreality]

Phylline - you can try Robinsons, Isetan and OG. There is quite a nice range of around $50 plus.

 

[candycandy001]

Hi Phylline (phylline) > I saw some flower girl dress from 'Tom & Stephanie', very nice, price below $50 as well.

 

[girls_paradise]

Hi all brides, congrats !! I am currently selling the taiwan popular facial mask. It's useful for everyone to use before wedding. I've tried using it twice every week and my face is very moisture and soft. Do visit my blog and let me know if you are interested. Thanks.... www.girls-paradise.blogspot.com

[phylline]

[mish]

Hey ladies,

I saw someone talking about wedding cakes. I am looking for a wedding cake as well. Any to recommend? Maybe 3 Tier. But don't want too ex ones.

I called Cherylshuen coz I saw the webby looks good. OMG...the person whom I talk to was sooooo rude and unhelpful.

 

[strikingreality]

Cherylshuen is quite expensive though...

You can try Pat and Felcor/Pat's Pastry or Pine Gardens. I think their prices are reasonable.

But have you checked on the cake cutting fee at your venue? Some places do charge a cutting fee for helping you cut and plate the cakes.

 

[troides]

I'm using Pat's Pastry for guo da li. They are friendly.

 

[ahgirl_]

We used Kyo for our GDL!!!
We, ourseleves din taste the cake b4 as was recommended by my fren!
Who knows, on our GDL, our relatives once saw the cakes, they are so tempted to eat n it taste v nice! I, myself ate n find it v nice.. cake is soft! n the decoration is cute n attrative which makes u feel like having it again!

They do deliver to ur place!

www.kyo.com.sg

 

[pocarisweat]

mish: apologies.. Think i was the one who posted the link ... saw the web and it looks good .. didn't know the service is that bad~

 

[mish]

vivi - not your fault la! I went to see the webby and it really looks good so I called to ask! She was really rude! She snapped at me most of the conversation. When I was asking about the price, the size, the time frame required to make the booking. Each time also get snapped at. I was shock! She must be PMS or bad mood that day. OMG...

 

[mish]

Thanks all!

I called pine's already. Person in charge not around. I waiting for their email reply.

Pat's like quite nice.

Kyo - like only sell cream cakes? I will call to check. My budget about 300.

 

[sbearie]

Hi ladies,

I have the brochure for pine. Pls pm mi your email addy and will forward to u all!!

Here's wishing all a jolly Christmas and happy new year!!!

Less than a month to my wedding!!!!

 

[clintomania]

I can feel your excitement Rachel!

 

[pocarisweat]

mish: she probably think she is famous (think she was featured on a TV variety show) and got 'attitude' We don't need that! gosh ...

 

[cherrypudding]

hey hey ladies!!

i just got back from the states.. damn shiok, dun feel like returning.. haha.. i went LV and had an impulse to get married at one of their wedding chapels.. lo-man-tica..keke.. luckily their 'package' not that attractive. lol.

anyway, i'm planning to start a wedding blog to detail all the little things from the planning stage to getting married. does anyone knows which webbie is better? i've seen some webbie where people have a 'countdown' timer. is that something 'downloadable' or have to pay a fees?

any advise is appreciated.

 

[strikingreality]

Hi X Chua - I am using blogger and I got a free countdown timer from one of the websites. Cheapo. But if you look at most of the wedding websites like theknot.com, they do offer free basic webpage hosting, as well as premium services.

 

[cherrypudding]

thanks Kass. i'll look into it. has been procastinating this blog for v v long. it is now my 2011 resolution. haha
i'm a cheapo when it comes to free things too.. trust me.

 

[mish]

vivi - she was? Oh.. maybe that's why. Famous already. Bad attitude.

I called cake avenue as well. She seems friendly. Pricing wise also not bad. hmmm Might consider cake avenue

 

[pinkglove]

vivi: of course not ur fault la =)

Mish: my fren visited cherylshuen and she experienced stuck up attitude too, the person serving her doesn't seemed very willing to serve her and acted aloof.

rachel: u can do a count down to your wedding! Is everything ready?

 

[mish]

Pink - really? I think ppl should avoid this cherylshuen. So expensive as well! Bad attitude and expensive.

Merry Christmas ladies!!

 

[strikingreality]

It's christmas and I don't wanna do work!

I am kinda excited about my wedding which is less than 5 months away!

I am preparing my Save the Date card to be sent out! (Procrastinate until now!)

When should we collect our actual invites from the Hotel?

 

[prisci11a]

kass, my hotel said that can collect about 3 mths ahead, same time as when u need to confirm your # of tables....

i sent my save the date by facebook ...ahahahah and email already... @ beginning on dec... and my friends said i so kiasu...

 

[michi]

Hihi, i'm a Oct btb

X Chua, try: http://daisypath.com/ I'm using free countdown ticker for my wedding blog from this website ^.^

 

[txl]

prisci11a>>> when is your big day?

Btw how does Save the Date works?
Do you still call or sms your friends to ask if they are coming to your wedding?

 

[strikingreality]

Xingli >> Save the Date is usually sent approx 6-8 months before the AD to inform ppl to keep the day free for your wedding. Can email or send a physical card bah... I did an e-card. This is more impt for guests who are out of town and need to make travel arrangements to attend your wedding.

If you guests all in Singapore, then dun need lah.

 

[txl]

thanks Kass!!!
have a better understanding of its purpose liao hee hee
thought it was a replacement for sms or call invites haha

 

[rubbishcow]

Kass, my invite is ready and can collect any time!

 

[ahgirl_]

Merry Christmas to all!!!

^_^

 

[strikingreality]

cow cow >> yours is in March at the Fullerton right? You printed already?

 

[rubbishcow]

Merry Xmas to all!!

Kass, yep... I told them I want before cny and it only too 1 week for the invites to be ready! I was kinda shocked also... So will just kep it first as I will be leaving SG in mid Jan... wont be back until wedding... so better to prepare earlier..

 

[prisci11a]

merry christmas to all 2011 brides and hope you all enjoy ur last christmas being a miss....

 

[prisci11a]

xingli, due date 7may 2011

 

[cherrypudding]

thanks michi.. daisypath is good!

merry xmas to all and have a wonderful start to 2011.

 

[mish]

Merry christmas ladies!

I got the wedding cake already! From Cake Avenue. Very decent price and looks good. Hopefully all turn out well. The people there also quite friendly. Overall qite happy.

 

[strikingreality]

Hey guys, quick question. How many suits and shirts do you have for the groom? I reckon it would be at least 1 suit and 2 shirts?

For those with tailor made suits, for your 2nd shirt, do u get it done at the tailor as well, or did u buy it from the stores? How much does it cost to have an additional shirt tailored (roughly - since I know this depends on the material).

 

[ahgirl_]

suits 2 sets from BS, where shirts get from G2000 (best to prepare 3sets)....
Morn, evening 2sets cos in the morn sure 'sabo' till sweat den u wun wan him to wear the sweaty shirt for the evening yeah..
didnt tailor made..

 

[pinkglove]

kass: we tailored 2 shirts for e groom. Made one tuxedo shirt @ Personality for $120 (tuxedo shirts generally more exp because they come with pleats) and another black shirt with Men tradition for $80 i think. Give them 2 - 3 weeks to get the shirts.
We're happy with the shirts and no alterations was needed at first fitting & my fiance's quite a picky person with e cutting of e shirts. hehe.. =)

 

[strikingreality]

pinkglove > Thanks for the info! My package with my BS includes a suit and shirt tailored at Personality, so looking forward to visiting them. Any tips for the tailors?

 

[purplebottle]

kass: we got a suit and a vest from BS. No shirt provided so we tailored one on our own at CYC.

 

[pinkglove]

kass: u can look at various men's shirt / suit designs online or on bridal magazines (though quite limited as compared to brides.. haha..) then kinda decide on the type of pleats on the shirt if u are doing one with it, whether u wanna have pockets, height n size of collar etc etc.. then communicate with the tailor when u r there..

It'll be good to have an idea of what kinda fabric / colour u wish to have if u are doing another shirt.. we did our 2nd shirt at Men tradition because we couldn't find the colour we wanted at personality. I find getting a customized shirt for grooms very reasonable because for guys, it's more practical as they can always wear the shirt out next time.. moreover, they already don't have the luxury & fun time choosing gowns, so I hope to pamper him a bit too...

Hope this helps

 

[michi]

For ladies who don't mind travelling to JB, can consider the tailor at Holiday Plaza. My hubby got his from Bos Sogo: 1 plain shirt, 1 tuxedo shirt & 1 pant at around SGD$188..cheap cheap & good quality

 

[clintomania]

Kass: my fiance also had his shirts tailored at Personality. one of the shirts cost $180 as the colour and fabric we wanted was the more expensive italian fabric.. the white tuxedo shirt was about $80

for the designs, you can always speak to the tailor on what cutting, collar and sleeves you prefer.. and there are also magazines on suits & shirts in their shop..

 

[sapphire05]

Happy new year ladies

Our big day is getting nearer!!!
