Club Chinois

[blurrz]

looking at 25 tables...
budget maybe not more than $800?
i am not too sure abt budget yet... just sourcing hotels 1st...

 

[jemalene]

Hi Ling, did you try Furama Riverfront? I think can fit into your budget?

 

[pringirl]

hmm i think from past brides' experience, <27 tables won't have pillars blocking. so the antica ballroom is still a gd choice...

 

[ginnie_queen]

Hey pringal.. been MIAing again.. now i am back.. hehe
i am thinking of max 27 tables to ensure that the place is comfortably spaced out.
Justina, you look pretty! Always feel so happy when I look at brides' photos... hahah...

 

[ginnie_queen]

By the way, how much time do we need to plan the table seatings? How many months/weeks do you give out wedding invitations in advance?

 

[blurrz]

hi renne, yes, contacted furama riverfront already... so considering between a few... been busy lately no time to read reviews, etc... haiz...

 

[pringirl]

heh i may be biased since i've alr chosen club chinois. but tung lok food is gonna be better than FRF in my opinion... =P

 

[kjustina81]

My fren had her wedding at Furama riverfront like 2yrs ago ... the ball is nice n big ... no pillars .. but the food .... erm ..... erm .... let's juz say that tung lok's is WAY better !!

 

[pringirl]

Club Chinois will be having wedding fair on 9 Nov 08! Hee I wanna go for the makan... =P~

Hi all, I'm new around here. Just signed up the package with CC as well.

Pringirl, can I check with you which menu you took up?

 

[pringirl]

hello stera, my menu is open. but am gg to take the eternal package, cos we like the menu better. plus got waiver of 2 cartons of wine plus free flow beer if we take eternal or forever package...

[stera]

Thanks pringirl, i took the eternal one as well.

 

[jemalene]

hi Stera and Pringirl(Karen), i took the eternal as well but did not manage to get any waiver on wine corkage as Eric say got 1 complimentary table.I signed up during the last wedding show at Noble house.
I feel this time more bargain at this upcoming wedding show.But is a little 2 late for me as my wedding date might be gone by then =)

 

[woodychelle]

I totally agreed with pringirl &amp; Justina...

Went to Furama City Centre wedding show last year... hmmm... ballroom was big... but... food... was so so only... personally, I think Club Chinois's food is better...

 

[pringirl]

hi Renne, securing ur preferred wedding date is most impt! moreover, CC's wine is at $22+ which isn't too expensive. who knows, i might just buy all the wine from them... convenient mah... hehe

anyone gg for the wedding show in Nov?

 

[eevee]

hi all, just confirmed and paid the deposit for my wedding in Jan 2010 ... After calculations, felt that the perks bargained is better than the wedding show.

 

[stera]

Hi renne, I got waiver for wine corkage but did not get any other perks like the complimentary table.
I asked about the perks for the upcoming wedding show but it seems that these will only be given if I sign up at the wedding show itself.
Don't want to take any chances so I won't be waiting till the wedding show to pay the deposit.
Better to confirm the date now.

[pringirl]

oh Stera... 28.11.09 was our 1st choice! Had to let go of this date cos it clashed with his exam timetable... :S

 

[stera]

We actually wanted 21 Nov but 28th is more auspicious for us.
I was praying to get 28 cos there was a tentative booking before us. Quite 'heng'.

Hi CC Brides and Brides-to-be,

Would appreciate if you could share with me any pics on the ballroom set up.. my wedding is in Dec but we have not discuss anything with eric yet. how well before the actual dinner should we go for the food tasting and confirming of menu, etc?

Thank you.

 

[happygurl]

Hi CC brides...
How's the wine served at CC...?
Is it good?

 

[eevee]

Bling >> you may want to refer to my multiply website for the ballroom setup.

http://eevee.multiply.com

 

[stera]

Hi Bling, I think you would need to go for food tasting at least 1-2 months prior AD and inform them so that they have time to order supplies and make any changes to the menu.

 

[blurrz]

i am back here gers... do not have the time for planning these few days cos too busy with work riaos... haiz...

 

[bling__]

Hi Eve &amp; Stera,

Thanks for the info.

anyone leave the projectors and screens at both side of the stage instead of on the stage throughout the dinner? I'm thinking of doing that to reduce movement on stage. any advice?

 

[shiyun82]

Hi Eve &amp; Stera, do they still have any available dates on June 09 or July 09?

 

[eevee]

shiyun >> I'm not too sure since I did not enquire for June or July ... You might want to call them up direct to ask.

 

[qbaby]

Hi all, am officially a CC Bride-to-Be. Just went down to pay the deposit yesterday noon.

 

[pringirl]
