Alicia> 2012. 2011 too soon. need more time to save money for the wedding.
CH> yea. just slightly a bit more like arranging for the justice of peace to come in ard 1 hour before the banquet time and our parents and immediate relatives to be present as well. This way, no need to run 2 times.
A fried advise me to ask for quote first... then sign the package for banquet only during the wedding fair some time in Aug. So I'm shopping ard now actually.
very weird right... a guy doing all this. you won't believe it. my WTB actually quite hands off. I am the rummer for all these things.

Hi Dear Neighbours... any updates on our home??
CH> i think you see wrongly lei... basically it's more like the foundation is more or less done for most of the blocks.
The block nearest to Innova JC is still at the stage where some pillars are up. So probably will take a while for them to start building up.
I'll try to take some photos this weekend if I pass by.

They have installed the windows for second level. In the brochure , there wasn't any upper casement window but they were included in the actual flats.

sorry for the disappointment. had a busy weekend and did not manage to take any photos.
I just passed by the site this morning, still looks the same.
Ah kiam> don't think so lei, our block looks like maybe just put up the pillars only. i don't recall seeing any glimpse of 2nd level window frames.
Wah babysummer, you pro siah... can tell what type of windows. heh. I didn't notice how different it was from the brochure though.

571C izit near the main road?? welcome to our thread.. so u went to the site n see??
Hi all,
Apologies for taking so long to take some shots.
The pics Updates can be found on the group in facebook!
http://www.facebook.com/photo_search.php?oid=106183701640&view=all#!/group.php?gid=106183701640&ref=ts
I don't really like the "photo" section for facebook though. We can't create folders to organize the photos.
Anyway, Seems like only a few blocks had started the lego blocks building. One of them is 572B, reaching 3rd level liao.
571C Studio apartments and 3 rooms is also going up around 2 to 3 levels. Half of the 570C is building up. The other half just completed foundation if i am not wrong.
That's more or less abt it.
Damn xiong now... looking ard for banquets venue between 18 to 22 tables type of venues. So difficult to find a desirable place. It's either taken up or more than $1k per table.
CH> 571C is further from the road, nearer to the rental flats that are already in operation now.
Ah Kiam> our side not yet start the lego block phase.
Btw after seeing David, the date was brought forward to Nov 2011.

Just to add on, when i was at the rental flats area, it kind of made me feel more for the less fortunate in SG.
the place is a little crammed and somehow or rather, although it's new, it feels like early days of Singapore in its trying times. Corridor were narrow, everyone had almost the same outlook for their homes.

ah kiam, u thinking tat our hse is bought forward to nov 2011 huh?? wow.. cant wait for tat rite?? haha.. me saw in hdb webby, the expected date we can get our keys are still 4th quarter in 2012 leh.. hmm.. still so long.. yah, so hapi tat my blk gng up to 3rd floor liao.. hehe..
Ah Kiam> Yea i meant my AD. I went to the popular shifu in this forum to help me choose a date as my original date that i wanted was 14 Jan 2012. It's like 1 week before CNY. Not convenient date to get married.
So go follow a fengshui master to choose a date.
Alicia> i read ard the banquet section and saw that you chosen FLM at Hotel Royal @ Queens?
damn xiong now... difficult to find a place, convenient to reach, able to take min 15 tables and max around 30 tables and yet not too crammed.
Those that are available are either inconvenient (eg. Country clubs, outskirts hotels) or those super expensive one. Headache.

Ryan> HAhahah! Ya lor, choosing a banquet is not easy. =) Ya, i had my banquet at Hotel Royal @ Queens. U wanted hotel venue or restaurant oso ok?
both also ok, so long as it satisfy the following:
- minimum 15 tables to max 30 tables type of size for areas.
- preferably pillarless
- Central, near to MRT stations or at least convenient to go by bus.
- budget no more than $950 per table
How was your banquet?
Actually both my WTB and me liked Furuma City Centre a lot but they cannot fulfill on the tables.
Viewed Park Royal at Beach Road, both restaurant and ballroom, restaurant is out of the question because tonnes of pillars.
Viewed Peony Jade at Clarke Quay, quite cram and the stage decor plus projection screen was quite a turn off for me. Food looks damn fabulous though.
Now looking at the more atas area now. Asked for package prices from Goodwood Park. Saw the price, I almost fainted.
Really difficult to find a good place though.

CH> Thanks for the offer. At this moment I'm taking 1 step at a time, looking for banquet venue first.
I'll check out Yvonne Creative and get back to you.
Visited Peony Jade and chanced upon a couple's wedding photos from there. Quite a cosy feel lar. But the tables is limited to 20, (they say can put 22 but it's like not very good lar. some people will be put into the "VIP room"
So i'm still looking ard lor. Ya, a lot of hotels below S$1K is all booked liao. Originally, we budgeted around >$900 per table. Now quite difficult to get convenient locations at that budget. so now have to look at suitable restaurants also.
Both BTO for Wlds is near the industrial park area actually. quite a quiet place in Wlds though.
But the prices for the flats are insane.
