We are considering between a few hotels, Hotel Fort Canning, Marriott and Carlton etc. Most of the hotel wedding shows tied up with Louvre Bridal and they have a number of good reviews from what I know before seeing them at the hotel show. So we sat down at their booth to hear out more since they are one of the short-listed bridals.
We sat for a good 1 hours had a pleasant time taking to the sales consultant who attended to us. She is very patient throughout. We are quite interested in exploring Korea, and came to know that they have the Promote Korea promotion. They shared with us the before and after price and we are very attracted. Guess what? The before price was $4,500 and after promotion is about $1500 - $2000 depending on the studio we select. In other words, we got to save up $3000!
At first we are skeptical about it, because the savings is really too incredible, But they gave us time to sort up and discuss, so we called up a few friends for their opinions and found that most prices out there is around $$4000 for a Korea photo shoot by other companies.
We double checked on the items and they are the same from what others offered. So we are not being short changed. So is it a sales gimmick, we thought? But, they brief us the terms and conditions before it and they were stated bnw in the poster. So my dear and I were very convinced after the rationale that they have nothing to cheat us, especially they are so recommended and popular and they worked under Korea Tourism Board. So it make sense why they are having such a promoting campaign to go Korea.
From the reviews, they seem really good and we just need to settle our actual day with them and we get direct price and we pay the studio Korea directly. Everything seems very transparent to us and their service to us is remarkable, I meant at least they are not pushy and gave us discussion time and answered all our doubts. From the hours we were there, we seen many other couples signing up with them too.
So we decided to go for the promotion and are glad that we have solved our bridal from pre-wedding and our actual day. One word for sure, their gowns are really nice from pictures. But I am still abit worried not seeing the gowns personally, they are very nice to arrange another time for me to see their gowns at their shop before I make the full payment for my deposit amount. I feel they are very considerate and understanding. We like them to be flexible too.
I am looking forward to the shop visit.
I will also be going for Carlton wedding showcase, and we hope to finalize our hotel by next month. Anyone has other good hotel recommendations, please pm me.
