Thanks ribbons and Ashlady for the muis website.
Ribbons, strawberries is your bridesmaid? You both are from the same church?
Like to just clarify on "serving liquor" is it allow?
I suppose it's dependance on whether the church you are getting marry in has that policy regarding wine/liquor. If no such policy exist in that church, then it will be your personal preference, how you want your wedding celebration to be like.
As for my case, the premises I'm having the holy matrimony does not prevent me from serving wine. And my preference is to have it as a form of celebration during the wedding tea reception.
Hope this clarify!..

Hey Ladies
My church pastor has started this sermon series on 'Making Your Marriage Work'. It has 14 lessons and currently he has stopped at the 4th lesson.
However, you can still watched the recorded video online for lessons 1-4. It speaks about Marriage in the Christian context. The most recent lessons were on the role and responsibility of both the husband and the wife.
For those who have not decided if you would like to go for PMC at your church or through the various VWO, you may like to have a look at these recorded services first.

The first lesson started on 22 July 2006.
Enjoy.

hi summerice,
think whether to have liquor wld depend if ur church permits.. the other thing is liquor is better drunk in glasses, over melanine/plastic ware. So if u need glasses, sit down is better.. Church recep usually doesn't provide tables for sit-down makan, so quite risky to have glasses & may cause breakage
heheh, def can save costs.. Oh yah, not tt Chrisitans cannot drink liquor, but not get drunk tt's all. Rem Jesus and the miracle of changing water into wine at a wedding banquet?

we dun have the 5 love language workshop.
Just that this series of marriage sermons have been long awaited. we have been waiting for it for more than 3 years, cos Pst Kong just did not have the time to do so.
Now that it is up and running, thought better to share with all of you here.
Another alternative is TOUCH Community Services' PMC. You can check under www.tcs.org.sg.
Hahaha, I am from CHC and working for TOUCH (but different department from the one that is running the PMC), in case you are wondering.

yes mehmeh, it's Jesus's very 1st miracle on earth, was turning water into wine at a wedding! However, I think it's perfectly alright that no alcohol is served at the wedding.
Isn't it amazing and wonderful truth to know the very 1st miracle Jesus performed is during a wedding banquet! It shows how much He wants to be right in the midst of a marriage to provide the couple everything. It pleases HIM much when we rest in His total provision!

hi ivy,
yupz, tt's right.. was in a hurry, heheh, didn't type tt out
U echo my thots!!
hi callas,
Def alright to not serve alcohol.. Up to the preference of the couple, parents expectations & of coz church. Have a fren who's fr a Bible Presbyterian church, her church was involved in organising the banquet (tt's how the church works in helping couples with their weddings) & they disallowed alcohol at her banquet. Most imptly couple, parents & church all understand each others demands/needs
Ur reminder on trusting God for His provision is a timely reminder!

I guess serving alcohol will depend on the couple lor.. if the church has no restrictions, then its up the the couple to decide.. If me, i wouldnt serve... save money, all drink fruit punch..haha.. but if it adds to the atmosphere of the whole reception, why not?
If the couple has christian friends who think christians shouldnt drink, then they dont drink lor.. Hey, i heard of some cases, even if solemnization is out of church ,if they want church pple to bless the wedding and church leaders are present, cannot serve alcohol one...
Yeah, Christians can drink but not drink they are drunk.. actually, anyone shouldnt drink till they are dead drunk anyway..
Icy: They have it on the online sermons? great! I wanted to attend but couldnt make it for the timings.. i'll watch it with FH... how long do they usually keep such videos online ah?
Calls: strawberries and I were best mates in poly... diff churches..

for a moment, i was trying to feature out who is Icy.... hahahaha
yar, they will post the sermons as archive. but I am not sure how long they would stay up there. My advise is: if you want to watch it, either you catch the online one fast, or you want for the DVD to be out.
My cellgroup leader's wife and I were joking about it last weekend. She said that we must buy. Then if ever there's an arguement, we will play the DVD on the responsibility of the husband (which is to love the wife). hahahaha... but that will mean we must keep the Disc on the wife hidden.

Hi Sisters,
Thank God!! And yes, mehmeh, thanks. I went to the printer you recommended, Axxa. Their service was fantastic!! I confirmed my card design with them this tues and guess what, they delivered the cards to my house yesterday!! Isnt that efficient!!! Thank God!
Will strongly recommend Axxa to anyone looking for printer. Their price are reasonable. In fact, we will be printing our church booklet with them too!!

Hey Pandalic,
Ur venue is at SAM right? The place seems like a nice place for guests to mingle after the ceremony, so i think setting up tables and chairs would be good. And also, cos there are only 100 guests, it shd be easier logistically to rent and set up seating arrangements...
How come ur PS got postponed?
Hey h2b2b,
Agree! Axxa is fantastic. I've printed my church invites with them. They were fast and efficient. Very reasonably priced too! Thanks Mehmeh for the contact
Kind of regret a little though - shd have put in more effort when designing the invites. Cos we just took a standard template. Not much time to think abt designs then. Now busy settling florist and order of service as well as GDL
Btw Mehmeh, we've confirmed the caterer already - Angeli. Printer - Axxa and Lovenest - Bukit Timah. Pls update the table

strawberries.... ahhh.... indeed i am a good friend.. haha!!
I went to T Dragon yesterday wanting to see their prices.. oh man!! Its so crowded!! and we waited like maybe 20- 30mins after which they told us to wait ANOTHER 20 mins... sian liao, we went out.. will go back another time..
OK, so now i have another recommendations for printers, AXXA... how are their prices compared to other printers, say T Dragon (only one i've gone too so far..) Where is AXXA? I was planning to send next saturday to maybe like Brash Basah complex to ask around at printers... Advisable? Strawberries, free or not, wanna go with me?

hi count,
great to hear fr u again too.. See u've been busy sorting out stuff! heheh..
ashlady just confirmed her florist & u're also done with ur invites, caterer & lovenest. Shall udpate the table
Eh, i also want to peek at ur invites leh..
hi ribbons,
axxa can print cards fr scratch, like my church invites, for under $1. if u're looking at printing directly on the cards, Axxa can do also. Having said tt, they can also do inserts
Can't rem if they do hot-stamping though..
Before i finally settled on Axxa, they are the 1st i went to get a quote from, i went Bras Basah too.. None matched their price though. Axxa is fast & Mary wld meet u at at convenient place to show u the proofs, rather then u having to ding-dong to & fro

Hi Lilic,
I was having the same headache as you - not sure to go for standing or sit-down arrangement. I agreed with count and mehmeh... it is nicer to have tables and chairs (fully dress up if budget permit)
I asked around my friends and most of them will prefer to have sit-down for eating. However, due to space constraint, I'm having half sit-down (mainly for relatives & elderly) and half standing. Moreover, mine is only a tea reception so it's still not as bad.
Meh Meh,
The 2 caterers whom I've enquiry from told me to cater the exact or more than the number of expected guest becos mine is a tea reception. How much food (the ratio) did you cater for your tea reception?
