[bb_2]

[marilyn_chh]

btw ladies, is zann back? sms her yesterday but no reply..tot she told me she's back today ..wanted to as ker Ipoh MUA contact.

Susan,
you have any suggestion? someone suggested orchard hotel is it?

 

[bb_2]

Marilyn, I went to Allson Hotel for hi-tea before. Not bad, maybe cn try their buffet dinner.

 

[susany]

Oh yeah, we were talking about hi-tea. Any further suggestion? I'm not good in Singapore food exploration.

Irene, ha ha again .. it's Ok, there will always be tomorrows.

 

[bb_2]

Ya Susan, i thk one more time sure kana punish by u gal liao... hee..

 

[yybb]

gals,
Just came back from malaysia.. all about the next outing? too bad can't join you gals, really tight up with my house moving thing.. Went home to custom made curtains as curtains in Singapore is really expensive... Just glad that I spend only RM800 for my whole house day and night curtains all full length window! Good deal right? Whereas here in Singapore, I was quoted S$1.5K.. Can save more than 1/2 when converted to S$.
Will be going for another gown fitting this week. So anxious how does my wedding gown looks like.. Hopefully it will turn out ok...

 

[anne]

ladies..I'm back fr KOREA.
Wonderful trip..but tiring. About the tsunami..really sad when I heard about it on news. My parents are OK

The affected area is quite far away fr my home..according to my mom the fishing villages are affected badly.

I'll be back to office tomorrow..
Really dunno what to do when I see the pile of work on my desk

sigh..

 

[anne]

Susan, BB and Zann..welcome to MRS club

btw, may I know which BS Zann used? Her MUA sounds fantastic!

Welcome, Geral!

Congrats on getting married! Zann's BS is in JB while her MUA is from one of the Ipoh BS. Maybe you can leave yr email for Zann to contact u, hehe...

Choice 2 -- ANA Hotel

 

[anne]

Marilyn, thanks for making the effort of collecting the venue choices.
I personally don't like Marriot Cafe's hi-tea.
Amara was recommended by my colleagues and Orchard Hotel hi-tea was highly recommended by myself and other ppl who tried before too.
The price is $25+++ if not mistaken.

 

[marilyn_chh]

[yybb]

hi SP,
Thanks for your concern. Very busy indeed with wedding preparation... Since I am going to have 2 wedding banquet, I need to coordinate between Malaysia and Singapore. Really tiring...

 

[marilyn_chh]

anne, you have tried marriot hi-tea before? really not good huh?

 

[anne]

YYBB, have a good planning. Don't stress up ya!!
I think if u plan much earlier and take into account of unforseen circumstances u will be in good hands. I have gone thru 2 banquets wedding too in last Nov.
Good luck

 

[anne]

Marilyn, I tried before and my hubby also tried before for weekdays..both weekdays and weekends menu don look good to us..keke..maybe that's out preference

 

[bb_2]

YYBB, I understd yr stress. I had two wedding makan too. One at my hubby's hometown, wedding lunch(Batu Pahat)on 25Dec &amp; another one in Spore 26Dec,wedding dinner. I hv to cater for my family,relative &amp; helpers transportatn &amp; their accomodation in Msia. Although its tired but its fun.

Let me knw if u need some help.

 

[marilyn_chh]

YYBB,
Jia You!!!
