Hello all, i'm a 24th nov btb
happy.gif

Banquet,bridal shop & photgrapher settled.
Anyone has recommendation for videographer?
 
hi girls, my wedding is on 2 Nov. I'm not planning to sign any BS packages as I prefer to go ala-carte and am not having any pre-wedding photoshoot. Have settled my makeup artist, photographer, JP, venue. My htb has also found a tailor to make his outfit.

Just need an advice, how long before should I start searching for my gown? And any idea which bridal studio allows rental of gown only without signing of packages? Thank you.
 
I've posted something similar in another thread. It is something that "Nov 2013 BTB" would like to consider too:

Instead of adding to FB, you can try using the "Start a conversation" function. This is a feature of this forum where you can start a private chat in this forum and you can invite the Nov 2014 BTB into the private chatroom. Start a "Nov 2014 BTB Private chatroom" conversation by clicking on a BTB's username, a new window will pop-up, then click on the "Start a converstation". And that's it. :)

The new chatroom will be visible to invited BTB only. Once the chatroom is setup, just invite the others to join the private conversation.
 
So far no, I haven't been added :( Well I guess that the brides no longer come back here?
We can try to make the thread alive again?
 
I am a Nov bride and I am in the 2013 BTB forum... like the earlier brides mentioned, it is happening, and i hardly come back here anymore. If you wish to be added into the FB group, please PM me/reply in this thread your FB name so i can search for you on fb (sorry i'm unsearchable) and your AD dates so that I can request for you to be added into the FB group. :)
 
Pls add me at [email protected]

hi all btbs!

kindly take note if the below message if you wish to join our FB group!

1. please PM me your Facebook account email address, so i am able to search you in Facebook network.

2. if your Facebook privacy settings do not allow anyone to find you in Facebook network, providing your email does not enable me to find you on Facebook.

3. therefore, you can still PM me and i will give you my email address and we can locate each other from there.


sending this message out as i had received a few PMs with emails which i am unable to find on the Facebook network. and i have replied all PMs with similar instructions.

PM is a better option as i am hardly active here because our BTB Facebook group is really happening and awesome!

looking forward to more nov 2013 brides!


cheers!

I'm trying to find a good and reasonably priced wedding dress tailor .. Most of the MTM stores that I've visited quoted me 2000++ for a full lace wedding gown, which I find is out of my budget for a one-wear gown!!

Do let me know if you know any good and reasonably priced ones..

Oh and if any of you looking for AD wedding photographer, let me know! I know a pretty good one, reasonably priced too and he's a really nice guy too!

Cheers!

Hi dear, can you send me the details of the wedding videographer :)
 
ronggg89: I've got my tea dress/rom dress tailored, full length, I think the price is decent. I think she tailors wedding gowns too, lace wise, I am not sure, if you are interested, can pm me for details.

how's everyone's preparations coming along? (if anybody reads this...) ;)
 
Beegirl: so envious urs falls on a weekend. We consulted a fortune teller and the dates he chose were mostly on weekdays
So how's ur preparations? Taken ur photoshoot?

I was not added in either.

Anyone knows if it's too early to source for a solemnizer? Mine falls on weekday so am worried most of the solemnizer might not be able to make it?
 
Bibilow : We too consulted geomacer on dates but he had given us all friday to sunday dates, which cost alot more than weekday for banquets:( Our photoshoot is on May. We have signed package from fables(JB) which have to travel thru n forth=x What about you? Where are u holding your banquet at? And you can start sourcing for solemnizer now but you can only book them 3 months before your wedding date.

Khanompang : so far so good:) When's ur wedding date?
 
Beegirl: my photoshoot is in May too. Will be taking it on 10 of may. Are u preparing any props? I'm taking a local package coz all my memories are here including the proposal place ☺

Since ur photoshoot is in jb, would u need to get another AD package from a local bridal studio?

Hmmm... Does it mean that even if I call the solemnizer now, they will not entertain me too? Seems like some bride have booked their JP way before their AD.
 
Bibilow: Hmm, maybe im preparing alittle bit of props for the themed shoot. Nope, we will have to collect the gowns maybe one or 2 days before the wedding date.

Hmm, some solemnizer will entertain if they are not that popular la. haha. They will still ask you to call back 3 months b4 to check with their schedule. We had already registered our marriage 2 years ago and i booked Dr Phua 3 months before the date too. Depending on the solemnizer, you can try your luck to call first:)
 
beegirl: my AD is on 10 Nov :) now still thinking of where to do my shoot! Ah... you have props? I wish to do it but I think I am just too lazy. Most important is too look pretty! Hahaha, so still trying to shed some few inches more before fitting my gown.

bibilow: read from some people that some solemnisers only entertain you about 3 mths before your date, unless yours is a popular date. Nevertheless, i reckon that trying is no harm. Going to ask my fiance to do that too. Better than end up the dates all snapped up by people.
 
Beegirl: Argghh. I wanted to ask Dr Phua to solemnize our wedding too but he says he's engaged that day. Probably coz it's a working day. Am in a dilemma whether I should call now or wait till 3 months. Perhaps I will try calling some next month. 6 months before the AD should be ok right?

You have a themed shoot? What theme are you going for? We are kinda lazy so just thinking of getting some simple props and hope that the photos will turn out well.

khanompang: When are you taking your photoshoot? Is it a local shoot? We have a hard time thinking of where we want to take our photoshoot. So have you shortlist any place for your shoot?
 
Khanompang: Nope i dont have props but maybe im making some simple props like 'Mr &mrs' kinda thing :)YA I TOTALLY AGREE that we need to shred some fats first but my diet is not working and im blaming myself for being lazy.hahaha! my fitting is 2 weeks away lol!

Bibilow : You can try calling, no harm:)
Hmm, both me & my hubby are looking at more vintage/old school kind of shoot thats why we took msia package because we know there are more old streets in JB :) But i have a problem which is i have to engage MUA on my own in SG cause bridal shop doesnt provide :(
 
beegirl: jia you! but i think you should be slim enough for your gown! should be able to do a wonderful fitting! take pictures for us to see! :)

bibilow: I'm doing my shoot in Jun and it's local. Well, fiance and I are thinking of going for colonial style because it fits my gown like PERFECTLY! hahaha, but up till now, we are still two minds about it. I am just too worried about getting an outdoor place, no toilet, A LOT of mozzies, hot and perspire and makeup melting. Fiance initially wanted that railway track picture but I was like "you are going to make me climb those slopes to get in in my gown?! " I think I will just roll down and die. :eek: But then I know, it's a nice venue!
 
Khanompang : Hopefully :)
Are you ladies sourcing for emcee or asking friends to host the dinner?
 
Beegirl: likely to ask friends but I've problems finding one that speaks decent chinese and matches with my emcee for english :(
 
Sorry gals for the late reply.

Beegirl: So have you start sourcing for your MUA? I read that there are a few recommended MUA here so maybe you can start calling them now. I don't have a choice in MUA since the bridal studio would provide me one. But I read in forums that there are some terrible ones so hopefully mine won't be that bad. (crossing my fingers)

Khanompang: Wow.. At least both of you know what you want for your bridal shoot. My fiance and I are totally clueless about where to go so we are just planning to go the usual wedding shoot locations. It's not a good idea to take photo shoot in May and June since it's one of the "hottest" months. Just hope our make up will hold under the scorching hot sun. Haha.. Wonder how our fiances will fare since they will be in suit.

Am still looking around for emcees coz I feel both emcees need to be acquainted to have that chemistry if not it would seem awkward. And when I seems to find one who agrees, the other party would seem unwilling. :(
 
Khanompang : Ahh, i think we will see if we have enough budget to hire professional emcee, heard that we can engage one at $100 plus.

Bibilow: I haven't start sourcing yet, i shall see if i like the MUA for my upcoming shoot, if good maybe i will engage her for AD too. Save trouble=x Haha i just hope i won't rain on photoshoot day*crossing fingers and i think my hubby will fare way better than me cause he is a very vain guy hahahah.

Feeling like bridezilla already cause seemed like there is so much things unsettled =x
 
Beegirl: I feel like a bridezilla too. My fiance feels I'm too "kanchiong" so both of us set up a timetable to make sure we get our stuff settled month by month.

Are you sourcing for your hairdo for your shoot or just let the hairstylist do it for you? I most prob just get my MUA to do it though my friends says otherwise. Pondering~
 
beegirl: I totally agree with you, I'm seriously more worried of the rain than heat actually... Cool ok? What are you left with? Don't worry, I'm pretty sure things will fall into place, get your hubby to help you. That's what I did, we each have our delegated to-dos so that it doesn't take the toll to much on either.

bibilow: maybe settle on a theme? Places that hold fond memories and special moments? Singapore... Not that big, actually come to think of it, the places are relatively limited. Have to do in June, July and August will the close to lunar 7th month, the mums will nag and I plan to give my photographer ample time to touch up the photos and I plan to have one that is printed on canvas so may take a bit of time :rolleyes: Hopefully everything turns out nice!
 
Bibilow : My hubby kinda lazy and dunno what to do so i must initiate the plan. hahaha. Hmm i will probably source for some hairdo style as im afraid that the MUA will do the standard kind of hairdo. For that i can ask my hubby to help cus he's a hairstylist hahahah! I think i will need to gauge from the selected gown designs then start to look out for suitable hairdos :)

Khanompang : Hmm, i have yet to confirm videography, emcees, bridesmaid and etc. ahhhhhhh...
 
Khanompang: Guess it's too late for us to settle on a theme right now. The places we chose don't really hold much special memories except for Gardens by the Bay. I saw on FB that there's a tulipmania fair right now at Flower Dome so might just pop in to have my shoot.I love tulips!!

How come photos printed on canvas will take longer? Anyway I'm also crossing my fingers and hope that the shoot for this Friday goes well. Hope the weather is good, hope it doesn't rain, hope the MUA will be able to do a good job, hope that whatever we plan will looks good on photo.. hoping.. hoping.. hoping..

Beegirl: My fiance is also very lazy. I've been doing most of the planning and he will just agree to whatever I have plan. Haiz.. Just hope that he can participate more but since he's kinda busy with his job so I'll let him off... for the time being. Ha!

Waaa! Then I'm sure you'll be a very pretty bride especially since your hubby can be your consultant. I'm not very good with hairdos and am not very sure what kind of hairdo suits me so after thinking it through, I'll just let the MUA decide everything since they are the experts.
 
Hello.

If you need me to add u in the facebook page, could you leave your email behide so i could add u at link you to the page?

:)

myAD is 10nov!
 
Bibilow : Same for me, im afraid that i might throw temper when i'm doing most of the stuffs by myself=x hahaha
I hope to leave it to MUA to decide too so that i can be at ease. lol

GOODLUCK and enjoy your photoshoot this friday:) Cheers!do upload few pics here after your shoot:) very interested hee. Anyway where are you ladies holding the wedding banquet at? The perks good?

bibilow: wow babe, I feel so excited for you!! Yes, like beegirl said, do let us have a glimpse of your pretty photos here!! I agree with you on the tulip exhibition thing, I wish to have that as my photos backdrop too!! But I think it's going off on late May :( I heard from my PG that the canvas one takes longer, feels a bit like oil-painting effect if you get it, I think it's a special kind of printing so not the normal type, comes with a hefty price too! I'm also at a loss of what hairstyles to have, my hair is the not-long-not-short length because it just grew it out last year and my trial is next week. I dread styles that make me look old.

beegirl: Don't worry babe, I think you will turn out a pretty bride with some many people fussing over you. VG just look around and get quotations? Choose what style you like, thats the most important. Don't worry about the rest, still got time!

redheels: [email protected]
 
Khanompang : Thanks dear:) Yup sourcing around for VG now.
I have been added in to the FB group :) Hope to see you girls there:)
 
Hi jtan!

tried to PM you but you do not accept PM.

we have a FB group for all 2013 BTBs!

so far, i am the ONLY nov 2013 bride! hahahaha!

our group is very supportive, fun and ACTIVE!

if you are keen, do PM me your FB email address and i will add you into the group!

Hi, I am Jessica, also a Nov 2013 bride, please add me to the facebook group. I just paid $100 deposit for a package with White Link, a bridal shop at Marina Square, I wonder if anyone has any review of them? Cheers!
 
sinfrance: I haven't got added to the fb group but just FYI, my cousin signed with White Link, I think they're happy with what they have. Have you actually seen their gowns and saw any you liked before you paid the deposit? I think if you do have something you like, it should be fine. I think BS is all about luck - find the right coordinator.
 
I see, no worries, yeah I think you are absolutely right, I think I found a nice coordinator named Jenny. Hope everything goes smoothly this Thurs when I try on their gowns. Thank yoU!
 


BB : Woo we are both 24th nov bride:)

Sinfrance : my friend took white link package at Ubi and spent 10k there. Because she upgraded her gown to designer gowns, and took photoshoot at both krabi & local and also a huge bedframe photo at 3k. Don't be surpise when you request for alot there. cus will have every add-ons cost , just a piece of advice:)
