Brandon, I think this Daving Tong in early 30s. V young rite, but he's quite professional, uses our bazi & parents' zodiac sign to calculate auspicious dates. He also include items for guo da li, dates for an chuang, all Dos & Don'ts.
He's quite nice too, emailed us emcee scripts, itinery for AD, table setting, wedding songs..v nice of him
For Gown selection, maybe 1 more yr from now..excited

-> jasmine, yes he's very young. the one i went at lavender is older about early 50.also using the same thing bazi and parents' zodiac sign. then will give details of what to and what not to and timing etc. but i guess David tong is more professional with all the additional info. how much does he charge?
Yes he v professional, print out everything for us in a folder. His charges quite reasonable, $120, considered mkt rate or not?
Coz 120 to me is okok lah, still reasonable, n coz he is young, so he has mordern perception, like some things we dun have to follow traditional way, but if we really want to, he'll advise us in details again.

Wah Precious, next week PS, excited rite!! Haha I'll reach there by 2pm ba, Looking forward, the 1st wedding showcase I'm attending.
You all gng with bf too rite? Must maximize our bargaining power! Hahaha
I like both themes but I most prob will go for the other 1, ivory & grey izit? Or other color combi instead of red & black, coz I want to choose a heavy color night gown, hence need a softer color ambience.
All eyes on me that day!!! Lol

My lunch also comes without shark fin and this is what we put in the menu.
Braised Bamboo Pith with Seafood in Superior Stock
(Save the sharks! We’ve said NO to shark’s fin!)
all our guests like it and like what i say, the food there is delicious prepare and guests say it's very nice.
As for the beer/wine portion, we decided to have it all wine as it's more healthy and class.
we did not bring any hard liquor as we do not want the guests to mix and get drunk easily.
As for the drinks, we told them to start serving only after main course as we do not want the guests to start drinking so early, and also on empty stomach.
sound so thoughtful keke.

Another post here to prove me snaking..hahaha!
What worries me is whether there'll be enough time for touch up make up & hairdo since I'm doing lunch.
And most VG needs @ least 5 hrs to complete morn highlights. But the good thing is that we can end early & mingle ard with guests.

-> renee, no rise huh.. i think better to have them stand up. be the Super Star of the day. then while they clap, slowly march in and they will take take photos of you too. really nice feeling too.
-> Jasmine, cool. so quiet today. have to plan your timing so that you have time to do makeup. will you be doing solemnization together?
doing cocktail reception,you have the time to do markup while your hubby attend to guests and set up.
yes for VG express, only 2 places able to do it, but you need to get 2 of them so that after gate crashing, one of them start working on it, but bear in mind that while they are working on it, they are being paid for it as well. whereas for dinner, when they do in the afternoon, it's their own time. cost of these 2 company are easily in the range of 2.5k-3k.

-> Precious, can just inform to CP before AD and they will do it. or if there's any name of the dish you wanna change it nicer, they will do it for you. once photo link is up, can take a look at my menu, we also put in our name design on the left of the menu. look much better and more class.
Fine..Mr Brandon here saying I too noisy..lol today quite bz mah..haha Btw, my Rom is over in 2010. Which 2 comPanies can complete morn highlights by noon?

-> jasmine, lol.
take a look at their works and compare, can be very tiring looking as some are very similar.
see what kind of feel you like. do you want more artistic way of photo or wan more direct shot, or want candid shot. this will help you to narrow down what you wan.
same goes for VG, vg i think easier, see what kind of video they do, can be very simple kind to very cheapo kind or some do it very class, some do it very fun kind too.

I headache ah! But PG I use my friend one not bad
bittersweet is also good n creative. Go check out their FB or google. VG sian-ness, now I dunno if got gatecrash or not cos he say dun want but how can I just let him off like that.. Which BS u choose? I thinking of Rico.. Their gown nice
gonna start booking PG, VG n MUA after sign up at CP
I hope I strike Toto ah...lol Brandon I wana see ur photo too...
I bought toto yest, 3mil, gods predicted I shld work harder for $ instead..thinking some divine help is appreciated! Haiz!
Well, gatecrash is up to individual la, of coz it will liven up the atmosphere, wedding atmosphere mah.
Anyway, my Bs is from Venus in Jb, affordable & very nice indoor themes & outdoor shoots, most impt, v cheap! Lol
Hey Brandon, if time not permitted for morn highlights, maybe I can save $ & get my PG to do morn montage in slideshow. Suggested by 1 PG..not bad rite..

-> renee, headache? no worries, there's alot of ppl to help you in this forum. bittersweet looks good, how's their charges? can pm me?
for gatecrash, infact most htb would want to avoid it as it's torture to us. lol. but then since once in a lifetime, better to have it rather than be nag for the rest of life..
like waht Jasmine mentioned, it spices up the event and also so that can have more photos for memories. if no gate crash, then what's there for the PG n VG to take?
for BS, i used Julia wedding news. they are professional and nice gown but expensive, burn a hole in my pocket.
can check out my photos for the BS in my fb.
-> Jasmine, BS in jb is good pricing but have to consider about driving in at least 3-4 times for selection, photos..etc then my wife say troublesome. so we settle it in here instead.
yes time do not realli permitted for morning highlight,
1) some PG allow you to have the softcopy of the morning shoot and you can ask one of your friend to do the highlight while he continue shoot for the current on-going event
2) PG will request for an additional assistance PG and he can proceed to do the highlight
3) if not, like me. i ask one xiongdi and one jiemei to take some shot of the morning event and once reach hotel for solemnization, they start working on the morning highlights.
save cost yet maximize. keke.
for most PG, they take photo in raw version and need to do editing before giving out photos as they want to protect their quality and reputation as well. so they seldom would want to give out the softcopy immediately and also they take lots of continual shot which they want to filter out.
so do check with them before deciding and also plan what you would need and require.

Brandon, yes you have v nice wedding shots! something different form other BS. Julia wedding news is well known for their wedding gowns & ps. the others i reckon are Sophia Bridal & Graceful Image, they have really nice gowns!
We drive in very often, so its ok for us, for some couples, really cant afford the time, then its really a nono..ltr quarrel sia!
