Minibu,
The Muslim table can be included as part of your miniumin. but must be full. eg. if you sign for 20 tables. 19 full chinese and 1 full muslim.
Elaine,

sherv (sherv_sherv) : you can ask for a lot of freebies like extra night, wines, helper room.
tat time i only ask for extra night and helper room. regretted to ask for wine.
all: any ideas when to do the RSVP? april was telling me to do it 2 months before my wedding. is it too early?

Lindy,
You can actually know whether your guests are able to attend when you first ask them.
RSVP usually two weeks before AD.
Two months is too early. a lot of time, pple either forget or got last minute stuff.
Erkerk,
Actually can. but provide your guest are not that big size.

kk: thanks. do you call them up to ask if they are free to come before you send out the invitation cards. or you send out the invitation cards before you call them? When do you normally send out the invitation cards? will that be too early if i send out 2 months before? mine is on 19 june.
Geberra,
so-so. you can try the duck(seems like some gals like) think is less common than chicken.
I prefer the Bridal suite to the premier suite.
My contract was for premier.(but then I still like Bridal suite. so sort of "down graded"...
Take what you like.
Lindy,
I usually will let them(friends) know before sending cards.
Like telling them to keep the date free for us.
they will usually be able to tell you if they are free within the week. then closer to date(about 1 month) I will send the cards out.
If you send early, they might forget or misplace the cards.
Think you can start letting them know about the date end of this month.
but for relatives, you can let them know earlier. (think it's about respect)

Hi Geberra,
Welcome to this thread!
Hi Lindy,
I am planning to mail out the cards 3 to 4 weeks before my AD on 26th June 2005. But I had emailed my friends last week to check if they are available as well as if their spouses/partners are attending together. At the same time, I had also ask them for their updated mailing address.

Hi kk, Thanks, saw your pix, you have pretty big eyes
the young kid is so cute and so guai to open car door for your husband
recalled at my fren's wedding, the young kid cry last min and didn't do the job. Your set up is nice, did you top up for the deco?
Calling Zhu Zhu, can share when was your wedding, did you also top up your deco?
Hi Hamster, knew Wah Lok serving is quite big so I don't think there is any problem in bringing 1 more pax for food tasting, unless you go for those dishes with 1 pce for each guest. Additional dish will be based on Wah lok's menu, can order smaller portion to taste the dishes

Hamster,
Dun think you need to pay extra. just let them know how many pax. usually they will close one eye or two.
Erkerk,
Thanks. that's my nephew. very naughty one. and cute too. 2 plus.. he actually cried that morning.. dragging everyone here and there. very drama.. but after that give him bananas(his fav) he ok.. easy to settle..
I din top up anything for the deco. I just let them know roughly what I need. ususally if they can do it, they will be able to give you. they sometimes reuse props. so dun think they will charge for the props. unless it is sometimes beyond their budget.
But I was very happy with their deco. the church ones. my sis only bring in the pink roses. red roses are theirs..

Thks for the tips, I will prepare his fav sweet too
So your theme is more to champagne colour? any idea if we can mix and match, like chose champagne theme but have red tbl cloth for the VIP tbl? Btw, I have already collected my invitation cards, when we have to meet the coordinator again and also do we only get to meet the banquet ops mgr on our AD?

Hi Elaine, Yes, I have started looking for caterer
Thks, I will check on mum's kitchen, is their deco nice? I attended my fren's wedding, the caterer provide flower piece but food so so, do mum's kitchen provide flower pieces for deco too?
Hi Elaine, Yes, I have started looking for caterer
kk: thanks for your advise. will take note. btw, possible to give me some advice on how you actually deco the place? feel like the stage is quite small. possible to share with me your pics. you can send me at: [email protected]. thanks a lot!!!
geberra: i actually increase my cards attendance to 75% when i sign up the contract. but i tin it is not a big problem if you need 10 or 20 pcs more.
all: has any one use the swimming pool to do your solemization at carlton? i am actually holding my ROM and weddin dinner at the same day. any idea?

Wow, so many question.
Heres a quick one.
I took about 75% of the no of guests. just in case. they are quite flexible. but dun expect them to let you have more. we told them we got a lot of singles rather than family(which is true). so no choice. need more cards.
Premier suit is like a service apartment which the "kitchen" in the room. I dun like it.
The size of both suit is about the same. so Bridal suite will tend to look "bigger" without the "kitchen".
I guess since they suggested that 38 is the max. that is the best number that guest will feel comfortable with. but if you want to increase numbers of guests. instead of increasing the number of tables. see if you increase the number of ppl in one table. eg. maybe a few tables with 11 pax.
Lindy,
I had my church wedding at Esplande room in late noon and dinner in the evening.
You can ask them if the rooms are avaliable. You might be able to save costs by less having the rom reception.
I tot of having it by the pool. but too hot. you can try their "tents" forgot the name. "cab" something.
Serene,
Haha.. slim? not really. I was totally stress out during the last two months.. heng no pimples breakout. maybe that's why "contracted" a lot.
Send the pix later

hamster_gal: i actually went down to survey before. if you keep your tables to 32 and choose not to have tables behind those pillars, it should be aliright. for me, i actually increase my tables to 35, so some of the guest will have to sit behind the pillars. poor them. but i got no choice. you can plan your table setting such a way that you actually avoid the pillars. that is how i intend to do. but there is no 100% to avoid it. some one will have to bear with it. my intention is to show my montage during the cocktail and after that, during eating, projector will be keep. i ever saw them setting up the projector which took them some times during my friend high tea.
