Hi mandylove,

When we did our research last two months, we were told that Dec 2015 was taken up pretty fast by couples. We got this info from a couple of hotels that we visited, thus if you are looking at Dec 2015 and would really like to secure your date with them, it is best to book now!

Oh dear! Thanks for the info! ☺️
 
Hi mandylove,

I agreed that it better to do it early.. Some hotels may not have the rate for end 2015 but most of it already has it.. It's better to book early as the rate will be cheaper as it may rise in few months time.. Some hotels sales told customer bout the rising of the tax for liquor might affect their perks and rate also..

PR offers waiver of corkage. They do have free flow of beer but I don't think guests nowadays fancy beer that much.

Does PR @ Beach Road has high ceiling and is pilliarless?
Happen to chance upon your post. Yes, PR at Beach Road has high ceiling and is pillar-less. nice ballroom.
 
Yup~ I agree with rs~ more perks~
Dinner wise, mostly perks will be free flow beer and wine for quite few hotels~~~

One of the offer from grand Hyatt if u sign during their wedding show is

Weekend Dinner Promotion in 2014/2015

- One complimentary table with a minimum guarantee of 20 tables for “The Gallery” and 25 tables for “Grand Salon”
- One night stay in a Grand Room for helpers on wedding date
- S$150Nett F&B Voucher
- Complimentary 2-pc band (instrumental) during pre drinks (45 mins)

Ok~ normally to play safe chat with them to confirm there is stocks.. And then if u buying few items.. Ask for cheaper shipment or free shipment~ my china friends teach me~

Yaya! Thanks for the info! I also "shopping" from taobao for the timebeing, and wondering whether to use Sg agent (e.g. like 65daigou) or just directly ask the China seller to ship over.

Ladies, please remember to bargain for discount or cheaper shipments when buying from taobao! :p

Hi Felix~
I look for forwarder in taobao and shipped all to the forwarder and then they will pack all and shipped to sg~

Is it cheaper than getting from agent? Usually agents will charge 8% agent fee.
Cynthia, can share with me your forwarder?

I'm trying to get stuff like, wedding/dinner gowns, hair accessories, fake bouquet (for pre-wedding photoshooting).
Too many sellers, sort listed many, still a lot to go through though. Apparently my friend who does bridal shop business told me that most of their gowns they also sourced from China.

Hi, how much discount do you get usually when bargaining with taobao? Do they speak English?
I usually type in Chinese. You may ask if they can read English. Discouns is very subjective, depending how "desperate" the seller is to close the deal.

Me too!
Im in May 2015 & also at the same stage as you looking for PG & VG.!!!
Im on the 30th, what about you?

What's your budget for PG & VG , so it much easier to reco ..
Try look at the works within your budget and see if you like the feel anot.
I had sent quite a number of request and some are to expensive even though i like their style likewise some are cheaper but i dont like it (just my personally preference)

omg! my wedding date is also on the 30th of May. :)
I think my budget is around $3k+ for both.
I think is quite tough looking for PG & VG because there are too many out there.
Very detail research need to be done.

we are on the same date! haha.... where is your banquet ?

To me , I think its difficult to research... too many out there!
Most importantly the works must be the style i like.
I love Wedding Paparazzi videography but it was $3200 just for video! Will be meeting them coming Monday for discussion, although it was out of my budget.
Keep thinking if I should double my budget for PG & VG.

For 3K+ can get alots of not bad PG & VG style already! Which are the PG & VG you looking at now?
You may want to try to get quotes from The Pictureque Love, Love Meet Lens, WMA Production, Mosaic Studio, I gotten their quotes and fall within your budget.
Their work are not bad too.

haha, yes so coincident. I have booked York Hotel, what about you?
Yes there are too many out there to choose from and I am really afraid to make the wrong choice. haha.
$3200 is really very expensive but if you really like it and cannot find others that suit the style you want then I feel can invest. Once in a lifetime!
Maybe you can double your budget on PG & VG and save on other stuffs.

Currently I only gotten the quotes from V-In production and 50nfifity Productions.
Thank you so much for the lists, I shall go check them out. You have already did a lot of research.

I also thought of getting photo booth and candy bar during the cocktail time.

I loveeeeeee wedding paparazzi's videos but their pricing is omggg, jaw dropped.. too pricey.

Hi Gals :)
I'm also 2015 BTB. Most likely during mid 2015.
