Hi everyone,

There are total about 5 design to choose for the card. Actually only 2 design belong to Furama. The rest is T-dragon design.

But the T-dragon design is so much nicer. I have already taken Furama card. Sob Sob.....

Today going to meet Charlotte to discuss about the set up design. Will update you gals for the info. My wedd is just 3 weeks away. So nervous..

 

[~mimosa~]

hi ss, u did ur food tasting already? how was it?

[sgsle]

Hi Ting,

Ya she is very nice.

I also went for food tasting le. Food wise quite ok. Portion very big. It is nicer as compare to other hotel. Hubby collegue went there for wedd dinner had comment that the food is nice.

Just choosen the setting too. They have new design for the setting.

Another 2 more weeks to go..... Start to Kan cheong le.....

 

[~mimosa~]

hi ss,

wow! 2 more weeks to go only...im gettin so excited for u...

hmm...the only consideration we haf now is dat the ballroom breadth is abit short..so when we march-in, its v short only

any brides has tis worry?

 

[gentasg]

can roughly describe how is the new setting?

how long before the AD does the food tasting take place?

does the coordinator call u?

wat abt the invitation cards?

i m getting very excited too though mine is in NOV hehehe

 

[moonylove]

hi there,

anyone can email mi the pix that you guys took at FCC? heard v gd comment on dis hotel might wanna consider to hold there... hehe... thanks in advance. [email protected] <== my email

 

[zhu_nai]

hi Linda&amp;Lawrence

i understand that food tasting is usually a month before AD. but if you want it earlier, i guess you can arrange with FCC. about 3mths before AD can deal with the invitation cards ardy. again, i think its yur preference. you can always call yur coordinator up and check it out.

i also excited even though my AD in dec.. hahhah...i wish to find cute wedding favours, anyone of you know where i can get my own? i think FCC's not that nice. Im willing to spend a bit on the favours.

 

[gentasg]

Hi Zhu Nai,

I wanna to doing wedding stuffs during the 7th mth, if possible.

u know usually how many meetings we need to have before can take the invitation cards home..

we need to source for the printer for the inserts rite..

but hor if meet in june also abit too early

have u go and try ur gowns?

 

[gentasg]

Zhu Nai,

I emailed my coordinator just now and she gave me a call. Very professional of her.

she cleared my doubts too

 

[zhu_nai]

hi linda&amp;lawrence

who is your coordinator by the way? keke

i already shoen my gowns, what about you? when is your PS? mine in July cos i wana avoid the 7th mth, but other things i can do during 7th month, like guest list, table arrangement, wrist corsages for my sisters, etc

 

[gentasg]

My coordinator is Jennifer.

[gentasg]

Hi ting ting,

This thread is always that quiet. my AD is in NOV 2006. So far, i can onli share is my coordinator is good.

i attended the wedding show last year. Food is acceptable. my hubby and i like the eight treasures rice in lotus leaf and walnut cream.

 

[sgsle]

Hi all,

Back to work after my wedding. I just finish my wedd dinner on Monday. So far everything is quite good except for some hippcups. Did ask my guest for the foods. They say quite ok, still need to ask a few more to know more detail.

 

[gentasg]

Hi ss,

May i know wat is the hippcups? related to FCC?

Thanks ...

 

[hamsy]

[~mimosa~]

thanx thanx
FCC called me again to ask me for a decision

cannot decide

 

[moonylove]

hi care to share ur banquet photo? thanks

 

[hamsy]

Hi tingting,

Wat's holding u back ya?

 

[sgsle]

Hi All,

Got some unhappiness before 1 week of my dinner. I am using their function room for my dinner. Then before my dinner they have seminar, and the seminar end at 5pm. They can only give me the room by 7pm. In the end, my guest can only be seated at 8pm. It is too late for the timing.

 

[sgsle]

End up my guest only get ready by 8.45pm, by that time most of my guest is already very hungry. Somemore they take away the table number very early. End up all my guest dunno where they are seated and a bit of messy.

They AV system also not very good. My Video express highlight got stuck many time. Only after they take up the cable and re plug then it is done, So Pai sei.

 

[~mimosa~]

hi hamsy,

we r worried because so far not much good reviews on FCC...dun haf frends who had weddings there..so no assurance
its once in a lifetime thing..really hope everything will go well
initially we shortlisted FCC for its price, then after viewing, we feel its not grand enuff n seems like not many ppl taking FCC up
so keep wondering if there is any cons bout it?
but for tis price range, its one of the best of its kind liao
hiazzz...so hard to decide

 

[~mimosa~]

hihi, btw does anyone has an wedding photos at FCC to share? thanx in advance! =)

 

[gentasg]

Hi ss,

are you able to do any rehearsals beforehand?

 

[moonylove]

im oso tinkin of signin wif dem... mm... 1 thing is dat their co-ordinator is really sincere lor...
i oso noticed nt many ppl make much review on FCC so im kinda scare... haha...

 

[sgsle]

Hi Linda,

My Jie mei and xiong di manage to try out the system and do some meeting before the wedd start. But the timing is too little. Maybe I suggest you check with your coordinator if they can pass the room to you earlier. I did not manage to look at the room set up and the table display before hand lor.
They actually done up the room quite slow. I believe I am one of the latest to march in bride. Haa Haa.

Hi Ting,

Not to worried so much, all the hippcup I face can be prevent. Have more of the communication and it can be solve. After all, I still find FCC a good place lor. When I choose FCC, the 3 main thing is that the location is good, price is attractive and the food is nice.
So far, I heard good comment on my food lor. Only sharkfin is little.

Main part is the price, if it is within your limit then go ahead with it, it can cause you to lost money, dun be sorry to your pocket lor. Lucky the price is cheap, that why I manage to cover the cost, did not loss much. A lot of guest is only giving $50 hong bao. So must really becareful lor. This is my personal thought lor.

 

[sgsle]

Hi All,

I will strongly recommend Charlotte as your coordinator. From preparation to after my wedd, she really help me a lot. I even throw most of the decision for her to decide for me. She really done a good job. She even help me to take care of very small matter things like, she help me to change my breakfast to Lunch as she knew that we cannot wake up early next day.

I was having fever on the wedd nite, she even help and find ways to bring my fever down.
She also help with the hippcups within her area.
Really need to Thanks her for all the help given.

Actually, I wanted to complain to FCC of my hippcups and tot of asking for some compensation but did not do it until now is also becos of Charlotte. Hee Hee!!!

Hi Ting,
Since your coordinator is Charlotte, so you need not worry so much. She will confirm help you to have a memorable wedd lor. She is really sincere in doing her job well.
