I have 3 at the moment! But they are scattered all over the world. Might have 5 in the end. What about u?
 
I have 6! Lol...my fiance got 6 confirmed groomsmen, in addition to that he got 2 unconfirmed and he still wanna add one more! I told him noooooo. Cos everyone u add means gotta give more hong bao :(

My fiancée actually has 7! I asked him to cut down though to 5! Haha but for now I only have my closest friends (since pri sch) best friends as my bridesmaids. They all know each other. I wanted to add another 2 but they don't know the rest so a bit hesitant on who to pick. Have u settled venue? :)
 
My bridesmaids don't all know each other! :oops: Getting more is good if ur budget allows as that means more help! But at e same time each bridesmaid costs me $100 (allocate them $50 for their dress and will give $50 hong bao) .

Yes I settled my church and dinner venues! ;) U ?

My church does weddings outside. So the pastor will come to whatever venue we have.. Still looking for venues. My bridesmaids are overseas at the moment wonder how I'm gonna get them to try their dresses. I'm getting so excited though!

Hmm.. I also wanted to let them pick their own but thought I'd show them ideas of what theme i have in mind. Not sure about budget yet, cos one of them suggested they pay for themselves and on their wedding I buy my own.

What's your wedding dare

Actually how does bridesmaid help out?

//Sorry if the questions sound silly, coz I've never really have close friends getting married yet. And I'm gonna be a bridesmaid soon in 2014, so wanna know how I can help my friend out as much as possible :)
 
Tash-- wow! Hahaha tts cool! How did u pick ur date and when did ur fiance propose?

Tulipkiss-- bridesmaid plans the gatecrashing games, ensure everything is on time, help out with reception, keep hong bao safe, etc

Maid of honor shld be beside bride throughout with a box of safety pin, sewing kit, etc and make a speech.

Groomsmen help out with operations part like go table to table to prep guests to take photo with e couple. They can help with av equipment as well...the more tiring tasks shld give them to do as they are guys..got more energy ! Haha.

Having more helpers is good as it adds ro the atmosphere, fun and u got more help so u can chill and look pretty on ur big day. ;)

Wow, okay. So bridesmaid = Jie Mei! The more the merrier, and less taxing on oneself.. True.. But must be close friends bah.

I have a clique of girlfriends whom I'll probably ask them to be my bridesmaid. However, there's one particular lady whom I am not close with, and don't really fancy... Not too sure how to going about inviting the rest of them, without her.

Hi girls! July BTB as well. So excited to see this discussion topic =)

My prep has been quite a big headache - monetary wise. Getting married in Sg is NOT cheap. Hope to hear some cost saving tips here! :)
 
Welcome! Cost saving? ?? Hahah not much tips ! Everything is so expensive
I can't believe the standard photography and videography packages now are $3K onwards for good ones. It's really ridiculous.

I guess do ensure u have a wedding budget and keep to it. As for the banquet, don't count on gaining back costs and be prepared to lose a few K. So that anything more u gain is pleasant and anything less is not a shock

:confused:

Cost saving:
banquet, maybe can try hold in country club, is like hotel, with bridal suite.
BS, go jb if u can if not get in Singapore. Can get Ard 3.2k
PG and VG, I engage Pentagraphy. I have 2 PG, 1 VG, 1 instant booth, childhood montage n morning express highlight at $2k plus.
Other expenses will be those small little things.

Hi girls.. We don't intend to have gate crashing. And as we are doing wedding lunch, we thought of staying the night before the wedding, and the actual wedding day itself, everything will begin from the hotel. Will it be weird?

Nt weird at all! As long as you're happy :) I heard of one couple who had their tea ceremony and etc at the wedding venue too.

Penguinavalanche : my wedding date was actually meant to be in Jan next yr but we realised we didn't have enough time so we pushed it back. Wanted 5th Jul cos of the meaning of the date but that date was already full in my church so went for 12th instead.

Hi all! Glad to find this page.
I will be getting married next year November wedding lunch buffet at one degree 15. :)
 
Cool! That was one of my shortlisted venues!!

Just wanna update about my package with my bridal studio, as I found that they have a better offer online as compared to roadshow promo, we negotiated with them and they agree to match current promo. :p;):) seems not bad! Make me v happy Today! !!!

Anyone know where to get cheap bridesmaid bouquets?
 
Its called beautiful love. Used to be bridal de couture or smth like tt? Used to be quite well known but they changed management and name this year.

Anyway, our package is still in negotiation... turns out tt my fiance didn't really negotiate exactly what I had in mind. .. will have to discuss more with them on our next appointment.

Im turning into such a bridezilla :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::mad::mad::eek::eek::eek:
