Where are you holding your banquet?

Hi Magdal
happy.gif

Will add you in facebook tonight (office firewall) -.-ll
The videographer I was looking at charges $800 for 5 hrs and $1500 for 10-11 hrs.. Express highlight is $300 and needs 6hrs in advance.
happy.gif
 
whitetea: when u say 5hours, does it mean if he stops filming, den the time is not considered??

I'm wondering if i need a video for march in....
or is gate crash + rom enuff?
 
bem: the videographer said 5hrs is for half day, so i am unsure if can take gatecrashing in the morn then continue with march-in in the evening.. sorry..
i think march in, can ask ur friend to help take.. unless u have song & dance during dinner.. then must have videographer!
otherwise gate crash & rom should be sufficient.

whitetea: sure~ do pm me in FB

Julia: signing before the wedding show?? u try the food before? hope to try in the wedding show
 
magdal u wanna try simplicityvids? his rates quite alright. I paid 1200++ for prewedding and full day.

For stationary im thinking of importing from a US site. save on crafts. =)
 
Bem: I highly recommend St Regis, it might be in a dodgy area but the stay includes 24 hour butler and free use of spa lounge. Very Nice!

XY: u heard of t-dragon? they do printing. i think one of the cheapest in town. my friend just printed his 200pcs for $180 (gold hot stamp printing plus some logo n stuff). he told me if just normal printing, it will be $130. anyway, just to share, for the T&T in JB, one of the brides i came across, she printed 250pcs for 155RM only. but hers is normal printing cos T&T dont provide hot stamping.
oh ya, my friend also mention there is another cheap printer in Jurong, but he dont hv the exact details n add of the shop yet, keke let u know when he inform me.
happy.gif


magdal: keke, is chinzilla, not me~
happy.gif
 
shanna: t-dragon near my wkplc, the service very jialat. i asked her the designs, she say is all there lo. like not interested in doin biz
 
Hi all 2012 BTBs. my AD will be on 5 Jan at Sheraton Towers but have yet to confirm with them. I will be going for my photoshoot at taiwan in May and I have already found my PG, VG and MUA.
 
xy> maybe cos they are the main invites printing shop ba...

tat's y they like abit yaya.. hahaha...

lyn> wow, ur's in jan and haven cfm...
better cfm soon...
 
xy: isit? my friend didnt mention. keke. then maybe u can do some research arnd ba, but if in terms of price n quality, theirs is better, sometimes just close one eye lor. keke, most impt is it benefits u.
happy.gif
 
shanna: amara just replied my mail!! haha! but hor this wk violett cant make it for an appt wif us coz she on leave til may.. who is your co?? is it violett oso??

julia: thanks thanks! wah.. 1888nett off?? so gooooddd!! yar i heard gpch food is YUMMY!
 
julia, i going to make payment for deposit with Sheraton on 26 April. after making payment, all things are settled. i can enjoy my trip and the photoshoot at taiwan in 2 weeks time!
 
Hey whitetea, my coord is Larrina, she quite good!

Btw, recently attended a wedding at Sheraton towers. Ballroom is very nice with high ceiling. And they serve colourful drinks during cocktail. Nice! However food is quite disappointing... Some dishes not so good.
 
shan, the march-in is pretty short right? the reviews on the food seems very good when i read all the forums feedback. some mention some of the dishes not good so i will avoid those dishes to serve to my guest.
 
Girls, how long in advance do u print tour wedding invitations? Mine in Jan but me and bf like nothing much to do le. Haha. We've booked our hotel and BS le. So now like just waiting for things to happen only. Haha. Quite lucky as bf is the one managing most of the stuffs now.
 
Shanna: my banquet wil be at the The Regent's Tanglin Room, so we can keep it small.. and also no need to invite too many distant relatives.. keke

Shan: Sheraton was also on my shortlist but of my no. of tables (max: 20), I had to drop it..
sad.gif

my HTB is very interested in Regent's food.. When's ur AD?
 
whitetea: sheraton is 20?? oohhh
then i can strike off my list liao..

i emailed violett from amara but she cant meet me this wk coz she wil be on leave from tomorrow til 1st may..she asked if i would like to liase with her coliq.. but i scared what if the other co-ordinators no good?? Hmmmmm.....

shanna: who is your amara co-ordinator??
 
sheraton min is 20 but can accomodate up to 35-40 tables if using all ballrooms. i will have about 24-26 tables so i be using ballroom 1,2&3.
 
MistyHaze, if your wedding is in Jan... i suggest you can print your cards in early Nov... normally it takes 1-2 weeks time to complete the printing... then you will need to spend some time folding the card and if there's a ribbon to be tied to each card, it's tedious and can take some time too...

best is get everything done before Dec... cos it's a peak season for the year end... and it's also the best time to distribute your card out as there's bound to have lotsa gathering with friends and relatives during xmas etc, in this case you can by hand give them your invitation card.

and cos your date is in JaN, BEST to in advance notify your guests by sms or some informal invitation for them to save your date. most pple go holiday in dec/jan... so to avoid absentees, just be "lo-so" a bit and remind them of your date! cos u would nvr know what will pop up during the peak season of the year...

my view~ cos happened my wedding was in jan this year too!

enjoy everybody!
 
hi all 2012 BTB,

My rom in Sep 2011 and AD in dec 2012
happy.gif


now sourcing for banquet and bridal package.
Thinking to take up blue bay and go taiwan for PS.

I shortlised a few banquet places that is abt 800
+/table but can't decide
sad.gif

peach garden @ miramar hotel
furama hotel
amara hotel
m hotel
novotel
park royal
grand park city hall

any advise?
happy.gif
thks!!
 
hi xrevlis, out of all those hotel you choose, i will choose amara hotel because the feedback from many brides are positive on the ballrooms and food. and the location is very near to mrt station cos walkable distance.
 
hi princesslyn,

thks for ur suggestion
happy.gif

hmm was just thinking amara quite steep for a 4 stars hotel, the banquet for 2011 already 900plus after tax & gst, duno how much it costs for 2012
sad.gif

was thinking if i take amara, shd i consider crowne plaza at changi airport, the ballroom look nice on photos.

would u spend more on banquet or PS/bridal package?
 
hi xy,

was refering to furama riverfront, the other one i think can only accomodate 27 table or 22 tables, cant rem which i might have abt 30tables.
 
if you confirm want to hold your banquet at amara or any specific hotel, you should confirm now to secure the current price. if you book later when the price list for 2012 is out, then you would have to pay more. make your decision soonest so that you will save more. i have not seen the ballroom at crowne plaza but changi is too far for me. remember to always consider the distance your guest have to travel.

as for which i will spend more on, i don't know cos i base on different thing to decide what i really need.

as for banquet, i will look at the price (no. of stars of hotel), ballroom (high or low ceiling), location (near mrt and more bus services available), perks given by hotels.

for PS, no point spending too much buying additional photos because you will not look at the photos frequently after your wedding. i will purchase maybe another 10 more if i really like the pics. i will also buy raw copies of it as it will be cheaper and i can view it using a pc. it saves place to store your album too.
 
Shan, princesslyn: ... Why the lady tell me min 30 tables and theirs are table of 12?? Bcuz of it, I dropped the idea of their hotel
 
oh thks for the advise
happy.gif

i didnt noe we can secure the price for 2011 if the price for 2012 is not out yet, i tot the hotel will still charge us based on 2012 rate when is out.

hmm ya i agreed with u on the PS part, i also thinking to buy the softcopy instead of topping up for more photos.
 
princeslyn: the march in is L shape so not that short.

whitetea: my AD is 21 Jan, how about you? Yes sheration is table of 12 but min 20 for lunch i think. min 30 might be for dinner i guess...
 
mine is dinner but weekday. min is 20 tables per table 12 pax for weekdays. i think weekend is min 30 tables per table of 12 pax.

i have about 24-26 tables so i will only be using ballroom 1,2&3. means ballroom 4 will be partitioned out. means my march-in is short cos only march-in from ballroom 1. straight to the stage. i gonna check with my coordinator whether is there a way for longer march-in cos i will be wearing a long train gown.

xrevlis, you should be able to secure the price for 2011 if you have paid the deposit before the new price list is out. because this will be written in the contract when you sign it. make sure they write down everything u want in the contract before you sign.
