Amanda Lee Weddings

advice

Guest
Hi carmen

I like Silhouette partly because of the boutique. It makes you feel comfy and not cramp like many others. Each time I tried my gowns there makes you really feel like a princess , you knwon what I mean....

frankly, the fact that Amanda is new in the business, so all the more I don't really advice taking up hers.. That's just my opinion...

My photographer is a free-lancer not from Silhouette..

Happy searching, I'm sure you'll like silhouette..

Hello,

I have visited both Amanda & Silhouette, overall conclusion is

Amanda is friendly but I dun actually like the gowns she let me tried on neither do i like the gown she draw for me....maybe i have different expectation..but she is basically quite accomodating.

Minda attended to me in Silhouette, is very professional and experienced let me try on almost 7 ~ 8 WG so i know which is suitable for me. When I visited Amanda she told me i am not suitable for big gowns coz of my hubby height but Minda told me differently she said i can still have my dream of a big gown...and she show me some examples really think she give frank and good recommendation.

We visited BV too...but my hubby think Silhouette is the best choice among these three boutiques. Thou Sil is also the most expensive among these 3 but we most likely confirmed them.

And like what advice mentioned....visit Silhouette I am sure you will be impressed by their professionalism and friendly service.

One point...thou i booked appointment wif minda but when we reached there she went out awhile only miah and heath were there but heath still bother to entertain us and talk to us.

when me and my hubby wore the WG and suit and minda went to the "store" to take out more WG for me to try, Heath come over to adjust the clothing for us and talk to us too...they are very friendly too! I nearly want to choose Heath as my designer but minda is very good too!

hi cldc75,

I agree that Sil provides good service, minda attended to me...was impressed even though it was the first boutique i visited....at the end of the day it was one of two boutiques i shortlisted as "finalist"....

I guess the factor which made me not choose Sil was bcoz i was apprehansive abt designers leaving the boutique...as in amanda's case...so well, chose ted wu to feel more "secured".... ;-)

I would also like to add that a close friend of mine related a "bad" experience abt amanda'a attitude and "moods"...but i guess this is "woman", rite? ;-D

Hi minmin,

There's no better bridal boutique. It's how you click with the designer. You need to go down to all the boutiques and talk to them. See which one you feel most comfy with and which package is within your budget. Also depends on the style that you like.

Happy shopping!!

Hi HF,

Amanda Lee Weddings is at one of the shop houses that are along Cantonment Road. The shop houses are directly opposite the new Police Canotment Complex building. The nearest MRT station is Outram Park station.

Regards,
Chin Leng.

hi..all future brides...
seen lots of comments on amanda and sil..
I got my wedding package from sil..and designer was amanda.
Personally, I love my wedding dress, evening gown, and love the service by amanda.
I would say dat she's professional..she did a very good job for me..so i guess you really have to know the designer and see if you can really "click" with her. Just tell her exactly wat you wan. I trusted her in the design and she didn't disappoint me. Been to her new shop too..very nice and cosy..of cos doesn't have many gown as it's a new shop..but seen few of her new piece..impressive..

As for the photographer, she tied up with benny ang also..

confused,

I also had freddie as my make-up artist. He's really good. He transformed me into a beautiful angel...hehe!! Even my aunts all said he was very good and were super impressed by him! He's also very chatty and humourous. You may check out my studio pics to look at the make-up done by him. I asked for a natural look. I think he can do drama-mama kind if you want...

Hi confused,

I'm not sure about Amanda's temperamental moods cos during the times that I met up with her, I din feel that way... Do pay her a visit and see if you "click" with her... my make-up artist was freddie and he's really good...my aunts till today still talks about him...hehe!!

Hi

Need advise on whether amanda give picture on her design? if she does, how many will she draw for us.

How do you find her service? will she give advise on which gown suits you etc. and how many times do you meet up with her before she come up with the drawings>

on my 1st appointment with her, she let me try a few gowns then she sketched a wedding and evening gown for me telling me how's the detailing will be like. of course, this's not the final product, can still change.
 

flowee

like wat eustoma had experienced, amanda will do u a mock up 4 u durin ur 1st visit n does sketch out a WG n EG...
u dun hv 2 meet up with her 'many times' 2 c the sketches ( she sketch out on the spot after u tried out the gowns n also after ur input of ur prefered styles )
she will also suggest wat she feels look best on u...

btw hv u visited her b4???

eustoma

sunny

Hi flowee

happy.gif

i personali like the design she had suggested 2 mi...
n had adopted her ideas...
she gave her opinions when it comes 2 the style n color of my gowns...
can comment on ur visit since u visited her b4...

btw wat is the timeline which u hv been referin 2 in ur earlier postin???
mi still blur over it...
 

sunny

flowee

i find that she does not really give her own views. she does not really know what the client want even if we describe it to her.

pay so much more for a designer, definitely we would wan her to be frank on her views, if not would have done our own desiging.

the timeline is when she will call us for designing, choosing of fabric, first appt.....

btw, when if your wedding? have you confirm your gown design with amanda? care to share your design?

eustoma

y you did not choose amanda? can share?
