San,
Your wedding is wkend / wkday??If yours fall on weekend , maybe it explain why conrad are strict with their perk . They usually will have no problem selling their weekend package.

hi all.. just a frenly feedback.. attended a wedding wedding at conrad ballroom recently. 9-course on weekend.
The food is generally not bad and the one thing that i'm totally impressed is their service. They will divide the food at one side and then serve to you individually. Got abit of fine dining kind of feel.. haha.. but when it comes to a table that doesn't sit fully, the waiter will put the un-used portion of food in the middle, then most people will feel quite paiseh to take. In the end, waste food.
btw i'm not promoting this hotel.. i already booked my dinner with other hotel le.. =)

Recently, I just went to Conrad and was asking for direction from one of the staff. Goodness to my surpised , she can't speak English ..
I was worry that she will be the waitress for the banquet. I simply can't imagine what will happen if she attend my guest's request

Hi everyone. I'm a BTB for 09. Looking at conrad's package now.
Hi San, Conrad is very popular. I'm looking at end 09 and more than 75% of weekends are snapped up.
Can I find out if any of you BTB for 09 manage to negotiate for 2 nights' stay in the suite, and a helper's room successfully so far? I noticed that a lot of couples had 2 nights' stay in the suite in 07 but not in 08. Did they change their package??
In the package, it states that there will be a free bottle of wine per confirmed table. Should I be asking for free corkage for wine on top of that just in case the bottles of wine are not enough?
Do we still have to top up money for the roses if we want red ones instead of the ivory ones for the standard theme?
Also, the projector issue. I think it's quite unreasonable to charge so much for a projector. Any contacts for rental to share? Thx!

Hi angel,
Yes you should ask for cockage waiver because the 1 free bottle of wine provided for each table will not be enough. Usually thats not a problem.
you can try to ask for waiver of the projector fee. i got mine waived.

Hi Sher,
I am impressed... it is usually very hard for them to waive the projector fees..
They claim that helpers room they will give subjected to availability. I hope they don't last min back out as the helpers room is not confirm in the contract.
Angel, who is your coordinator?

hi san,
Guess mine is a special case.
I don't get a helpers day room too. even with the beers, they are pretty stiff about that.
But i really love the ballroom and foyer..so what the heck

i think 30 tables is the max one can go instead of 34. The position of the last 4 tables are the least preferred as they wont be able to see what is being screened on the lcd projector.
I also agree, bec the ballroom is T - shape so some corners might not get a good view if fully filled.
I also agree that they pretty stingy with their perks. My coordinator is sunsun.
Did u all managed to get a full wine corkage waiver? This item i also nego for a long time but still failed.

hi hi hamdy, when's your AD? Has anyone seen the bridal suite before? What is a centennial suite? I don't even see it being mentioned on the conrad centennial website. Does it come with powder room etc? How big is it? Hamdy, did u manage to get ur own projectors?? It's so funny that ev time i think abt conrad, i think abt the projectors.... haha... still v sore that i didn't manage to get them waived!
hi all,
been a long time since i dropped by. I am also a conrad bride. my ad is on 01 jan 09.
Conrad is lovely. I cant find the ambience elsewhere. I choosing the scarlet theme. Those who wants to see the pics can go to my website.

Actually I had a friend who held her wedding at Conrad last year. All good comments. I love the food tasting food. I find the cantonese food very good. Dont need such a big bridal room..no matter what only 2 of us..so big for wat..play hide and seek meh???
I couldnt get the projectors waived too..but its ok. My coordinator is Eng Yan. She is great. She even gave us a nice hugable Conrad bear and a box of 12 chocolate from conrad on our ROM day when we had our food tasting.
We have tentatively booked for presidential suite on our AD day instead of the bridal suite. We also got a day room for our helpers. Most of my adhoc requests are being followed upon very closely. Most of the time, I meet Eng Yan...I enjoy the complimentary tea and snacks at the coffeehouse. Love it. Makes me feel its all worth the money because of the service given.

My wedding just over.. I would use disappointing to describe the level of services I am getting. We have two table of guests seated very near to the projectors complaining that they could not see what is showing on the projectors at all. I did not expect such thing to happen especially when we did not occupy the maximum capacity of the ballroom. Other table of guest saying that the waiter forget to prepare one food portion starting from sixth course onward.. Others feedback like dish up is too slowly causing the food to turn cold

hi hi, i will be throwing my wedding bqt at conrad next year in nov. attended my galfrend's wedding at conrad last year, found the food & service to be excellent. the ballroom ambience and layout was great - pillarless view! manager in-charge of my wedding is catheryn tan - a very pleasant and professional lady who carries a positive attitude and gives very good customer service. in general, we are very impressed by their level of service and they are very flexible in acommodating our requests. btw, do you gals have any good bridal boutiques to recommend? been to a few already eg. irene's creation, divine coulture, white link - nothing exceptional caught my attention. Thanks & cheers!
Hi Vallous,
Do you mind sharing the pics of your combination of scarlet and champagne theme? Can email the pics to me at [email protected] or is there any link that i can view your pics. Thanks!

Hi All,
My fiance and I are looking at conrad for our wedding. however, conrad need a min booking of 30 tables on weekend dinner. 30 tables with 12 pax per table is kinda too many for us. Do you think we can nego with them to cut down on the no of mim tables to book on weekend dinner?
