Hi Chrisz, no i have not called alan yet. I have another contact no. from "Han" also have not meet up with them. Hee... rather tie up recently.
Last wk, just came back from a wedding dinner @malacca. I was there early with my MIL, SIL, BIL... we occupy a table. Those who came later unable to get themselves a seat or sit together with their families including children. The food is fine but so happen the ladies toilet is faulty, this give the ladies a lot of inconvenient & the place is really vry cramp. I ask my FH abt the seating arrangement. He told me its common tht ppl come in as a families. He also suggest we can have a seating arrangement but be prepared to have unhappiness from certain group of relatives. I am abit worry. Not sure will MIL support the idea as we r the one paying for the tables.

BB_2, thank you for your help.
As for the seating arrangement, I'm facing difficulty too as we will have a combine dinner with the groom side. Like you, we are forking out all the expenses.
For my side, I've arranged the seating arrangement for my guests - should be quite organized but as for the groom side, his mother disagree on this - she said will lose face woh if such arrangement is made .. on the actual day, I really cannot imagine what will happen.
Really want to cry myself loud as a lot of disagreement with his mother on this wedding.

Hi Susan, i do understand yr feeling. I am hoping to do away with the wedding room too.
I can save up a few thousand just on that!
My FIL has passed away yrs back. My MIL always worry to offence the relative, and she is alway a traditional lady. Sometime, my FH will remind me not to wear black or real dark colours to their relative wedding.
but in spore, it elegant to wear tht!!
I will try to explain to my MIL, hopefully she will accept. Do u thk we can explain by saying the guest should be treated like VIP. A special seat will be allocate to them. Hope this works.

Hi BB and Susan, I think most MY wedding are so call "free seating"..especially those in small town. I guess KL, JB or Penang by having guest list with seating arrangement shouldn't be any prob.
For my case, I'll have seating arrangement plan for my reception in Penang. My parents agreed on that coz to them this will minimise alot of messiness while finding seats for the guests.
My hubby side, FIL make the call..we doesn't want to interrupt coz he is also kind of ppl always think that we shouldn't restrict or offence guests.
We both like acting on that day only..keke..FIL will make the call and do whatever he likes
Lucky that we have seperated reception..or else sure got alot of disagreement and unhappiness.

Hi anne, do u worry they will bring a whole group of people from their families or maybe even maid to come? Sorry, if i am too direct. Do u worry that the red packet are not able to cover?
I don't mean to earn but just hope we don't suffer too much for losses. As as I was also planning for kids so have to save alot.

Hi BB, for my parents, they r modern thinking..so I don't have much problem with the seating arrangement. My dad will help me to consolidate the RSVP list from the invited guests.
For my hubby side, FIL is the one that doing all the stuffs..we try not to interrupt. We prepared to see alot of screw up on seating arrangement there..coz those ppl can bring the whole family or plus the maid small places is like that..live with it!
Money is sensitive topic when we touching on with parents..especially my FIL. He doesn't want the restriction when he wanna hold this wedding reception. He is kind of telling my hubby off that one of his friend having the reception without taking any "ang pow" from the guests..haha..so we better keep quiet and let him handle.

We will have a combine dinner reception. My parents are OK with everything I plan. So, I have no problem with my own parents.
As for my FMIL, she is a teacher and involves in a lot of societies. In fact, 99% of invitees from groom side are her friends & relatives.
I really don't know how to prepare myself in facing unwanted situation on the real day.
BB_2, I think it's out of our control if the invitees want to bring a whole football team to the reception and the amount of angpow they would to give. Should be prepared to face losses.

Susan, is true as what u said. We can't do anything on in-law side. Unless they r as open as our parents
BB, what we can do is try to cut down the unnecessary expenses fr our own and spare some extra $$ for the other side. Let it go thru peacefully, money we still can earn it back in future rite? No point showing "worried-black-face" in our big day
Cheers

HI gals,
Glad to see this thread active again.
Hi Chrisz,
$1.8K for AD photography and Video is considered quite reasonable already. I will be using two AD photographers thus the amount add up in a way.
Videographer is kevin who is charging $600 for full day. So far, he is the most reasonable.
I took up a bridal package with JB Santiago and paid RM$3.7K for it. Will be getting 2 gowns - AD gown and teadress.
Yup, will be a half day event - tea ceremony followed by buffet at both sides. Convinced hubby not to have banquet and MIL is very understanding thus she also agreed. I dislike the idea of banquet since young so have been training my parents that no banquet for me.
I prefer to have my wedding in my own way and not like doing my wedding just for the sake of anyone. Banquet to me, is like i need to put up a show and i have to please pple more than myself. Hence no banquet for me.
No offence to you gals who is having banquets. Above is how i get myself out of banquet.

Hi Ladies, I am actually kind of prepared to faces losses. At least its in RM, wouldn't be quite alot losses as we r working in Singapore. Thanks alot, Anne. I guess I won't have long face as I am looking forward now. I guess by then it will be holiday mood too. especially its Xmas!!! I might consider giving lollipop.hee...
Hi hi Chriz, most of the wedding lunchs or dinners I attended are mainly in Chinese restaurants with engaged entertainment like singers. The singer will help to sing Karaok if no one from the guest. Interesting?
Ladies, do u knw when is the best time to see the banquet manager for the selecting & printing of invitation cards? Mine comes with free printing of invitation cards. Thank alots!

BB not to worry too much. It will be fine..even we prepared to face losses but if u think of future, it is the same that u got to fulfil back those cousin or relative who get married later on.
This is the custom in MY, is just like ppl deposit money at your place. Today, if someone gave u RM40 ang pow, one fine day when the someone daughter or son get married, this RM40 will goes back to them too, agreed?
So, this is short term pain only..hehe..eventually long term pain for u. The later they have banquet, more money they got to pay for it, and ang pow still the same as before.
This is what my cousin told me...

Hi little_star,
Wah PS next week, which Bridal Shop did u get from? From spore or msia? u must be real excited. I have not select my menu yet but paid a deposit cos mine is on X'mas day. I have picked Golden Wedding at BP. The ladies there r quite nice. As for the food, I guess I am quite fine with that. Had dinner there before. Is any there anything we need to bring for PS? What if we have menses during that day? That will be real uncomfortable.

Hi BB_2
My BS is In-Wedding at Tanjong Pagar....a lot of complain, can see from the forum...sign.
In fact want to use Golden Wedding, but hubby say very troublesome to travel up and down...and we need car in Singapore for our wedding too...
U can 'count' when u have menses then try to avoid to book your PS on that week...me doing that too.
As for PS, u only need to bring your shoe, your hubby shirt and pant. (i think they will advise u). U doesn't need to do manicure coz they will do for u...(my sister also at Golden Wedding).
But I need to do manicure, coz singapore's BS doesn't incl this!!
others: (get this from some other brides)
bring another pair of shoes which is more comfortable 4 ur OD coz u
need some walking or climbing up n down...
wear clothing wif zip or button so dat it's easy 4 u 2 change after
the makeup n hairdo, if u wear t-shirt wif round / small collar it
might spoil ur makeup/hairdo! ur hubby same too!
bring along ur accessories if u hv prepared.
n dun 4get 2 bring ur wedding bands
ur hubby's ties
ur hubby's shoes
REMEMBER, dun drink too mcuh water 3hrs b4 u sleep, try not 2 drink 1
whole cup at a time within dat 3 hrs. wash ur hair at nite, dun do it
in dat PS morning, coz ur hair will hv the steam n not easy 4 the
artist 2 do the hairdo later
- do not wash or condition your hair before you go
for PS, as it will make it too limpy to style.
- do not wear bra to bed the night before if you
are wearing a bareback gown. (avoid tight bra)
- do not drink water before you sleep as it will
cause water retention.
- have enough sleep
- bring facial blotters
- manicure/pedicure
- tissue
- oil blotters
- compact powder (touch up after blotting)
- bottle of water (with straw)
- any items that you want to take photos with (eg pet / toys etc) Bring along soft toys or anything that is of significance to both of u. U find that the photos turn out to be more meaningful than only the two of u posing in the photos
- You may want bring a small hand-held fan to keep cool on a hot day if you want.
Hope all this can help u...

Hi Little_star
Thks so much for the infor. don't worry & do yr best smile. Just think that u r the most beautiful princess, cos it something that belong to both of u only. I find, we should treasure one another. I alway remind myself abt the silk air accident. There are couples who wanted very much together but ... so I tell myself I am fortunate. In this way, me & FH will have lesser disagreement.

hi all....
i'm happy with my PS...have seen some of the photo, coz they using digital camera so can shown us immediately. But of course very tired too...
I still haven't finish my PS yet...will go next thurs...for my outdoor PS and some indoor PS.
I also bring my own cheong sam for PS coz i don't want the traditional costume eg japanese, koreo etc...so I bring my own tea dress for PS.... hehehe
FOr those haven't go for PS yet..don't worry too much, the photographer will tell u how to pose. I think M'sia BS will do the same.
I borrow some accessories from friend in case the accessories provided is not nice. But end up I use all their accessories (coz all the accessories given by them all very nice). They will match according to the colour etc of my gown.
Try to sleep early the day b4 the PS. And try to relax...don't "kan cheong" if not the smile will not look nice!!

Check with the bridal shop if thy hv anyone to recommend. If in spore, u check with this lady, Ms Christina Fong, HP:9792 4770 (she is my make-up artist on 26Dec (Spore)
2) My actual day gown not confirm yet.
See if u can take off the rack and ask them to give u discount since thy are not ready upon your request.
3) My new house at m'sia also not ready yet cos the renovations going rather slow. (Look out for alternative like renting a hse if thy r ready by then. I suggest don't keep chasing them. Either thy will request for $$ or end up doing yr hse in a rush and not up to your expectation.
4) I've not order my hand bouquet & wedding cakes yet, (Didn't the bridal shop cover this?) If you do not have the time to source, try getting the contacts on the web, and do a ordering either by phone or on-line-booking)
5) I've not found my wedding car yet. (Ladies, anyone has any lobang on this???)
6) I've not print my invitation card yet.
(Mrs Chan, if this is really going to take real long, suggest do your own printing in powerpoint. Those printed in nice paper can be given to your relatives. As for frens, u may like to send email invitations. Then u will not need to print so many copies. U can also see if any of your frens can help u in this.

Hi Mrs Chan, y not share some load with your hubby and get him to help u to settle some of the stuffs? BTW, where is your hometown?
For wedding car, I suppose it should come from the groom side. Get your in-law or at least your hubby to settle this.
Invitation card, there are some pre-printed cards off-shelf. Print the insert via printer..it should be fast.

Hi dear Ladies, I guess that is the best we can do for Mrs Chan and to pray for her. I thk by now she should be at her home town solving those problem. I believe her message also alert us to act on those preparation real fast, at least for me.

I think i hv decided to go back on 10 Jul to choose my gown, my menu & to select my card for printing in Batu. Hey Ladies, like to share what u have done and not yet?

I've not gone for gown fitting yet (will b going this weekend), so I got it, just in case if I would have chosen a bare back or a bustier or a long v-neck. Got it at S$55 from my colleague. I've not tried to put on yet. Maybe I could send the pic to your email. Pls let me have your email address. So, it's up to you if u want to get one. As for me, after this wedding, perhaps I could use it for other occassion.

Ladies, just like to share this story with you gals. An advice frm my FH.
There is this chatroom which is mainly for ladies only. (Hee, i am not saying Singapore Bride) Two of the girls exchange hp no. and started to chat thur sms. After a period of time, they ended rather close. So they arrange to meet up one day. The meeting place was at one of the bus stop at Tuas at 7pm. Reason given by one of them is , she is staying somewhere nearby. So the other girl also didn't think twice. But luckily, her uncle offer to drive her there. As they did not meet each other before, they agreed to recongise by the dresscode. When the uncle drove pass the bus stop, what he saw was a group of about ten guys waiting at the bus stop. And one of them happen to dress like the "girl" her niece suppose to meet. That scarely!!! The uncle quickly drive off without stopping.
When i heard this, rather scarely. Can u image if she is going there alone?!?!?! So ladies, if u girls like to meet anyone frm any webpages, do remember to meet in a public place where THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE OR AT MAKAN PLACE.
Just a personal advice.

Anne, I signed up with Taipei Taipan, also at Jalan Ipoh. I got so many choices of nice gowns till I don't know which one to choose.
Do you all still opt traditional costumes for photo shooting - please share your preference.
I like something modern but with classic look, but unfortunately my BS doesn't have such type. I have choices of typical Japanese, Korean, Mongolian, Chinese (kua), Princess Manchuria, Victorian and Spanish which I find they are all very common, and I have to choose 3 types out of this list.
BB_2, that indeed scary ... thanks for the advice. We got to be extremely careful and conscious when dealing with strangers.
I got the thing from my colleague, who then got it from the agent/dealer. Do u want to get one?
