moo,
My package is the standard. tried neg for waiver of corkage, but, failed. anyway, the wine GWP served is not too dear. since cookiecream said its good, i guess, no worries. i want my guests to feel good abt the dinner. F & B is most impt to mi. as for the change of flavours and florist, Jeanie din mention anything. i'd just paid my deposit.

Hi moo,
I took the red wines from cornerstone, no white wine. But u can ask GWP to standby a few bottles of white wine. They will be charged only if opened.
For me, i didnt top up my flowers. Mine was those bright orangy roses and I think they really glam up the ballroom.
Thanks for the warm wishes & it's neber too late for me. I'm kind of suffering from the post- wedding syndrome, and quite misses the wedding preparation process. That's y, now & then, i still pop by to peep into this thread, kpo kpo abit lor. I will try to reply queries whenever i can as i advocate sharing info which really has helped in making my wedding planning so much easier.
Hi jen,
Not to worry abt the perks. Me like u, also failed to neg for waiver of corkage. As compared to previous brides, i also got less perks than them & some of them got spa treat somemore!
I think it's also good to get their house wine so that u hv one less worries abt getting wine. I also agree wif u that F&B is quite impt for a wedding, as the guests' concern lies wif d food. I think making guest comfortable is also one of utmost impt aspects, although we may not be able fulfill everyone's expectation. Ultimately, our aim to let them rem the good things and not the bad ones. Cant imagine if e.g. during CNY, the relatives/frenz started to remind abt the lousy dish during the wedding.....waah, so pai sey wor. Anyway, GWP is GOOD in F&B, so no worries.

hello LS and everyone
yep i've seen the pics and the venue.but i just cant decide on the place. u girls seems to be very happy with GWP esp food part. like i said i only have about 50 pax to invite for my solemnization cum high tea...wont do any wedding banquet after tat...will ballroom look too emtpy?
jeanie says its ok and not empty...but i tot of the tudor terrace..the bad thing of that is the air con duct is a little noisy leh.
so i really am quite lost.

Hana,
It's ultimately your decision to make. But, I'm all for the Tudor Ballroom. Go for it! The extra space will allow you and your guests to move about freely! Lots of space to take photographs and perhaps even dance!

Hi Jeannie Girl ,
If you are still around reading this thread after your wedding , congratulations to you !
We went to see Jeanie last night to choose the wedding cards and discuss about the food-tasting.
She mentioned about a couple who have their poolside buffet dinner. She said whenever she meet up with the couple , it will rain !
It did rain in the morning that day but luckily it is fine in the evening. So , i think it must be you. Hee !
regards

thanks for your clarification, jen. will check with my coordinator
i think one shouldn't mind too much about the comments posted on forum. i used to really get upset also but my hubby told me that we shld experience the real service and see the real pdt and we determine ourselves.
do pop by your bs with your spouse and stay positive!

Hi moo ,
Yeap , there are only 2 colours. I am thinking of getting both. For example , like the ivory ones for friends and colleagues and the red one for relatives.
I think at this moment is to inform friends , colleagues and relatives to confirm. Planning for the seating arrangement.

eastlibra,
Nice to see you here again after so long! How has your preps been? Did you manage to view more suites while you were at GWP? I'm wondering which suite to request for. I like the idea of one with 2 bathrooms, but not sure which suites these are. Can you, by any chance, recall??

i know this may not be the best place to ask, but since we are all GWP wedding couple, is there any recommendations for the actual day photography & videography? Guess all the past couples @GWP would be able to give some recommendations. I am tinking of getting the one from my studio @ $600 each. however, guess it wld be beta to get recommendations from the wedding couples.

HI Jeremy,
We're giving videography a miss. But, we do have a photographer who will cover our big day for us. He is actually a friend of ours. The rate he charges is about what other photographers charge as well. He doesn't do videography though. If you want his contact, let me know. I do believe he has a website you can view.

Jeremy,
Various traditional costumes?? You are referring to actual day photography, ya? Not photography in a studio. This photographer friend of mine does actual day photography in whatever costumes or gowns or suits you may have. I'm not sure what you mean by various different costumes. He will cover your wedding with jounalistic style photography, which is what most photographers do during weddings (actual day) - as the day progresses.

Hi L.S.
Will be getting busier with each day goes by.
Anyway if you want the suite with 2 bathrooms , you will be looking for the lobby wing suites. They have a sliding door to cover the living room away from the bedroom. However , they are very far from the terrace and the ballroom.
For the tower wing which is the nearest to both ballroom and terrace , the suites have one bathroom.
It depends whether you want the convenience or the facilities.

HI Jeremy,
SO sorry.. hehehe... I thought you mentioned costumes. ya, he's quite familiar with them. But then again, he'll shoot and capture moments of the entire day and night. Whether or not you decide to have the traditional Chinese practices.
You know what? I just found out his site is undergoing a major renovation. But, I'lll let him know you're interested and see if I can get him to contact you, ya? Will PM you when I find out.

The lobby wing suites sound very good! I don't mind the distance from the ballroom. Are they smaller than the tower wing suites?

Our invitations will be delivered/distributed without cakes. We're not a traditional-type family where things like that are still done. Preps are going fine. We've just confirmned car decor, my bouquet, corsages, tea dress (red and black batik cheong sum - interesting!) and groom's suits last night. Still in the process of giving out our invitations. Yes, it's a very exciting time for us! I hope you enjoyed viewing our pics!

Hi L.S. ,
Sorry for the late reply.
I think the lobby wing suite is bigger than tower suite , maybe a little bigger.
It depends on the availability during your actual day. If all goes well , I mean the suites is available , you can request for the lobby wing suite.
Anyway , can i have a peek at your wedding photos ?
Thanks.

HI Chrisssy,
Unfortunately, I don't have much info about this new ballroom. As far as I know, the Tudor Ballroom and the Tudor Terrace are the only 2 places where banquets of 18tables and above are held at. Do check with the staff at GWP though. They will probably be able to tell you more.
