Any Clubbers Out There?

Serene..
kekeke.. ya lor .. actually supposed to be liddat hor.. but limpeh wedding I nv do the writing down of their names lor. kekeke.. jialatz...

Cecilia..
wahh.. so cheap ah.. no wonder I was telling my hb that since she invite both of us.. then we should bao like maybe SGD200 ... then my hb say i siao! =( so its so cheap one ah? kekke.... i never knew man!

Tansy,
I once bao for a luncheon at Shang $80 too.. so its up to u lor...
 


Heeheez...ok, then hope all my frens like u all so zitong if i'm going ahead with my luncheon at 4seasons. Hah!! cos per table cost is like $700-800, then wine corkage like is $30 per bottle! Grrr... beer no free barrel too...think alcohol bills will b alot.
 
i was lucky coz i went straight 2 my fren whose a banquet manager wif tung lok so alot of things oso waive kekekeke 2 bad they close off liao or i would recommend lor...food is superb
 
Tansy..
wedding is liddat one lah.. wahh.. when i think of mine ah.. the amt I spend on liqour man!! got free barrel also no use lah.. then somemore my hb order from his outside supplier wines.. wahh... but well.. its only once in a lifetime mah.. so ok lor....

Serene..
I agree that when u got lobang hor.. its always better one.. kekee...
 
Wahhh... Serene.. u good lah.. all got lobangs ah.. keeke... can save leh..

my BS is different lor.. haiz.. no lobang.. whahaa..
 
Haiz...yeah, i've lobangs with GCW too actually, but hor they can only give u more perks n the table price still stand...which is like biangz, so ex for a location like theirs!!!

Hmmm...now in deep dilemma:
1) Mertitus Act 1 for dinner, $850nett per table, free flow beer n complimentary 15bottles wine.

Or luncheon:
1) 4 seasons, $710nett per table, no beer, 12 bottles wine foc, additional bottles at $38+++
2) Hilton, only $600nett!!! no beer no wine. corkage 5 bottles wine waived only.
 
skylar i dreaded the whole idea abt customary lor so dun c the point at all spending loads on BS lah dinner lah..juz wanna get it over n done wif ASAP kekekeke
 
Serene..

ya I know wat u mean lor... actually we wanna just go away for HM & that it! but what to do.. to please our families lor... end up 2 dinners... wahhh liew....

Tansy..
so which one is ur choice eh?
 
Haiz...i can totally understand...we wanted tat, and still trying hard to insist tat. We're half way there, managed to cut down to 15 tables if it's dinner, if lunch, jus go ahead w 12 tables. hiak hiak!!

skylar, if i've made my choice, i wun b in dilemma now liao leh...sianz ar...!!!
 
skylar i really pei fu ppl like u lor...really went the extra mile 2 accomodate ur folks

if ask mi do it twice i definitely will fan kang all the way lol

even now when i tink of my AD i still dun like lor..duno wads the big deal abt the whole thing..n i tink i told u b4..the most hated part was when i had 2 kneel n offer tea 2 my in laws when i dun haf 2 kneel b4 my own parents..everytime i tink of it my blood still boils
 
tansy which 1 u prefer actually? juz go wif ur fave choice hehe i tink the sums work out oso chum doh lah...so juz pick the ballroom u like most? kekeke
 
Oh no...serene u kena the typical in laws tat demand u to kneel... Eh tot can always say the gown too tight to kneel??

Haha, like u, i'm trying hard to fan kang, tat's why all the quarrels ongoing. Till now, my mum says she wun care a single thing liaoz...
And which ballroom i like ar, of cos 4seasons is so nice lar, but gotta think of pocket too leh...
 
Serene...

ya lor.. that day is D Day that I really just let loose lor.. haiz.. dun bother so much lah... kkekeke.....

Tansy,
which is ur first option??
 
Serene...

ya lor.. that day is D Day that I really just let loose lor.. haiz.. dun bother so much lah... kkekeke.....

Tansy,
which is ur first option??
 
phew... finally got a few mins break... later got class again...

tansy...
u haven't decide on ur banquet venue? dun mean to scare u la... but better decide fast, or else later dun have the day available for u liao..
 
Skylar, we haven decide on whether dinner or lunch. Think it shld b either Meritus or 4seasons ar.

levynn, u're not scaring me, cos it's a matter of fact haha!!! now becoming smart liaoz, i've made tentative booking for my shortlist liaoz.
 
haha....for me i will add up all possible cost especially the beer and wine cost then chose the cheapest....wahaha....

serene, as for the tea ceremony, i will still tink nid to kneel down lor...respect mah...but i will only kneel down wen offering tea to my MIL n my parent only....
 
Diana, think the kneeling part gotta depend on the family's custom. My in laws doesn't wan the couple to kneel down when they wanted to.

Eh cheapest of all ar, shld b meritus liaoz, free flow beer n no corkage of wine. But food really not so good leh.
 
tansy, most people especially young people like us wont hv much expectation on the food wan coz hotel food is average only...if really wan gd food then it will be restuarant lor....

chose cheapest is to try to save the most and to minimise loses only....

also, i tink the older generation will gif lesser ang bao for luncheon coz they will view it as cheaper lor....then if you luncheon package add up to be more ex...u will tend to lose more $$ leh...

juz my thots lah...
 
u've a pt and tat's exactly wat i'm pondering so hard for. Eh show u all the meritus Act 1 pic. heehee, then u all comment k??
353127.jpg
 
Wahh... till now u still dunno if u want luncheon or dinner ah? kekeke... better decide first ah....

This looks ok ah... but then its up to u really lor....

i agree with Diana about the older gen thinking of the ang bao for luncheon & dinner lor.. kkeke....
 
skylar, seriously very shang nao jing leh...fh not ard and i'm the only one to decide...
sad.gif
HAIZ...how how tell me how?? *strangling myself*
 
tansy the place look ok, but guess u dun like it coz there are steps and the tables are divided due to higher and lower ground rite....but then u hv to tink also, venue more impt or ur pocket more impt....of coz, we gals got our dream wedding...but if tat will burn a hole in ur pocket will u still go ahead? like me, my idea venue is either merchant court or GCW but as they are so ex, then me gif up and go for Crown which is within our budget lor...guess i can still njoy myself wif the presence of my frenz and relative mah...

o...btw, cecilia & tansy, r u gals joining us (the oct thread) for 2molo gathering?

cecilia, we gng to buy bedsheet at aussino, wendy got discount...u wan to buy bo?

tansy, so u got class bo?
 
Tansy,
huh? ur FH not ard ah... then wait until he come back lor... or did u give u the go ahead for plans?? See u how lor... slowly ya.. dun be pek chek ok....
 
Diana personally i dun tink kneeling down equates to respect lor i can kneel 2 some1 but i can b rude 2 dat person oso mah lol anyway i dislike dat totally n will not haf my own kids (if i ever decide 2 haf them) kneel 2 any1 else in future

tansy dat pic looks similar 2 my banquet place kekekeke but less cluttery...recently they got reno izit? the ballroom like look abit diff from the laz time i went
 
serene, urs oso at Meritus Act 1 ar???

diana, tomolo i got class, so can only go after 10pm, if u're still hanging out late...heehee...yeah, pocket impt but we're thinking, since doing it small, so might as well do a better one. FH leaves the decision to me, but i did email him the pics n cc him all emails w coordinators. So he's pretty updated of wat's going on.

Skylar, my fh working overseas lar, only coming back in end Apr to take our PS hahaha!!!
 
hee hee, serene guess we got different views lah...agree tat we can be rude to that person even though we respect them lah...however, guess ultimately, kneeling is also a form of gifing face ba....

tansy...wendy hv email me ur no...later i sms u ba...tink we shld still be ard at tat hr ba...
 
Wahhh Tansy..

u also very good leh.. strong woman ah!! handle everything ah!! good lah.. at least he is not ard hor... then when it comes to points difference.. no nid to aruge so much lor.. kekkee...

so when is ur AD? take it easy.. ya!

Serene..
wahahaa... me also liddat leh.. for me, I dun mind kneeling down but only to my parents & his parents... other than that.. NO WAY! kekkee...

like that time in our hotel got alot of those overseas relatives come.. then my MIL ask us to serve tea to them.. ok I dun mind lah.. coz elderly must respect mah.. then sekali she say.. u all gotta kneel down.. I shot my hb a KILLER LOOK and he told his mom.. huh? no nid lah.. she is in her gown leh.. so troublesome!! And tat is that... kekeke...

i think if i kneel to them all ah.. limpeh eh ka sure ji one ah!
 
tansy nono i din haf mine in a hotel, my dinner was at the now-defunct Tung Lok Imperium where the ex Sparks disco was located hehehehe i love the place n the food was GOOD! hehe

Diana dats the problem..i refuse 2 gif face 2 my in laws LOL i nv once allowed them 2 tink i'm a submissive DIL :P

skylar i dun even haf 2 kneel 2 pay respects 2 dead ah gong ah ma! lol so theres no reason AT ALL 4 mi kneeling 2 any1..in fact my mum oso tinks like mi when she knew i had 2 kneel :P mayb she felt short changed whahahaha
 
Eh I think jincah is already a form of respect leh, then abit too much if gotta kneel for the other relatives rite? Machiam they are dua pek gong lidat ar? tsk tsk tsk...

serene, imperium is quite good leh i heard..
 
serene i nearly wanted to ask you whether you had yours at fort canning country club when tung lok was in charge of banquet... then i saw your post..

tansy.. rate for luncheon is $60 ang bao... be prepared to lose... cos yours is the price of some dinner at hotels... even rasa sentosa is only $768 nett i think
 
no way i going to kneel... i'm not prisoner.. it is very degrading i feel. jincha is already very respectful, i don't even kneel in front of my parents why should i do that to my in laws
 
aiya...no wonder i cant get detail of the imperium during my search last yr....chey...

mai ji dong gals, kneel or nt up to individual lah...but i hv told my MIL before tat i tink sure kneel for our parent and in law when she commented tat my hubby cousin nv kneel down during tea ceremony...the rest dun nid....however, if she ask me to kneel down for other elderly relative, i tink i most likely will ba....coz i dun mind gifing her the face / respect + i dun mind all these at all...as for in future if i will do the same to my kids...tat will depend if the culture and traditional are still in force bo lor....
 
Wahaha.a.. Dua Pek Gong!!

ok lah.. then tell them lor.. we kneel goh dai san ki dua huei (3 big joss sticks) whaahaha...

chek ark ah! kekeke...

Tansy,
most impt is if u feel that it is good bor lor... coz really leh.. majority pple will think that luncheon dun have to bao alot one... so liddat then u jialatz liao...
 
ya la... cool down la... kneeling depends on individual. me didn't even thot of that. heh. but me quite lucky compared to some of u leh... my MIL very easy-going one... my mum also... so everything went on quite smoothly for the AD n the planning stages too.
 
Aiii..yah, it all depends on the family culture and how strict they are with the traditions... Pray hard for flexible in laws who are not sticky with the padang-ness n all li jies...

Think i'll discuss hard with my fh, if we're able to absorb loses for luncheon 1st.
 
tansy yeah Imperium was superb hehe n i had it considerbly cheap 4 the quality plus i had it on weekday so i did manage 2 break even

Cecilia is there 1 in fort canning country club? hehe i'm sure its more ex lah which i wun spend on anyway

Diana they shut down coz my fren said the owner wanted 2 increase their rental 2 a unreasonable price n the number of orders 4 banquets wasnt enuf 2 cover so they had no choice but 2 shut
 
Ohhh...lidat ar, wat a waste ar...hiayz, landlords are like this one. When they see the shop doing well, they will try to increase their rental hah!
 
Wah...one wan to slp, another wan to eat siew mai, u all sibei daydream hah?!?! Siaoz, i'm thinking where to go later, to avoid going home early.
