Ojh: if you look clearly, the stage setup comprises mainly of fresh flowers... that would be possible but you must top up $$$$...
GPCH only provides 4 flower stands at the aisles, VIP tables and cocktail reception table.. that's all

well, i sure hope that they can have something to make the stage look brighter and nicer. At least for their new themes.
Maybe we can suggest to their florist for something with no extra charge? Like e.g. fewer fresher flowers, but lighting of the backdrop as shown in the virtual tour can stay?
The last time i went with my fiance and future in-laws before the start of a wedding, they felt that the stage was too dull and doesn't look appealing as compared to the nice surroundings. Such a waste they said..
I've seen some pics of backdrop with nice bow-like designs but Christopher said that they are no longer available. I mean..the stage is so important cos quite a number of the banquet pics will be that of the stage too..

Antz C: why do you even want to put 12 heads to a table? Even putting 11 heads to a table is a NO-NO unless that family requested from me... Personally, i would feel very sad if i am invited to a wedding dinner where the hosts placed me in a table of 12....
imagine the food, not enough to go around... and etc... tongues will wag leh.. just my 2 cents. its going to be super cramp in table of 11 le... table of 12? no comments.

Hello fellow BTBs,
I just had my wedding on last Sunday. As it was a Sunday, we hope to have our wedding end early as everyone needs to work the next day, we are extremely pleased that wedding did ends early.
The whole process was very smooth and well coordinated. Great thanks to the Banquet Captain, Angus and Banquet manger Christopher Lee. Although Christ was not around but he did take note of all the details I had told him through emails. Angus did a great job by having the wedding run smoothly on the day itself.
And ofcause, our wedding helpers play a really big part in this too. Many give good remark about our helpers, I guess they really make sure those hard to manage guest gets what they want (seating arrangement). Not so sure as I was not there and they are really good by not wanting to tell us any down side / hiccups about the wedding. Make sure u find someone who really can work!
Food was extremely good n big portion. Many love the wasabi prawn but we didn’t realize that many old forks don’t really like it. But guess is ok as many other dishes had given good review too.
It was also very thoughtful that they provide me with plain water and with a strew while I was at the VIP table.
We was given post dinner to the hotel room for those dishes that we had missed earlier. Really thoughtful as I was super hungry and thirsty after the wedding. Had sore throat on the night after the wedding. Haha was too busy to drink any water throughout the day.
Sound system was great, everything ok. Wedding singers (Love Me Knot) had performed in GPCH during the wedding fair, guess they are already familiar with the system. All videos are played well with no faulty to sound system.
I had 29 tables + 1 reserved but in the end that one reserved table was asked to keep as wedding singers need more space. It is not that crowded to walk for photo-taking session although I’m wearing a can-can dress.
Some of my friends think that GPCH is a 5 stars hotel which I find it good, although I have no idea how many stars. Keke.
I love this hotel, if you had already book this hotel, congrats, u have found yourself a good wedding venue. For those who has yet book, what are you waiting?
Love the entire experience. I don’t mind our 50 yrs of marriage celebration to be here again! lolx

I ended mine at 10.30pm. =)
I think you really need good helpers and remind your guests to come early, tell them because is a Sunday n need to end banquet early as Monday is a work day.
I printed in my card half an hour earlier den normal. 6pm for reception n 6.30pm for dinner (normal is 6.30pm recept n 7pm dinner). Although mostly come at 7pm+. But is good to tell your guest b4 your wedding. I always told them "don't have to come early, just come on time will do".
Because nowadays ppl just listen in n listen out when u tell them to come early, this has become useless. So tell them something different will make them remember. =)
And if you wana end fast, you need a really good Makeup Artist. Mine was fast, and my friend went up with me to help me change, she also help my MUA to hold the perm iron while she does my makeup den go back to roll the perms den my friend will help to hold n she conti to do makeup on n on... Really good multi tasking.
I have 3 hair do. One hair do is at reception to greet guest. den 20mins b4 first march-in, i went up to change to another hairstyle and put on mask as wedding was masquarade. Before i went up, i notice that the crowd was alot already, so when I'm up for like 10mins, I requested my helpers to have the ballroom door open and have guests seated. den 10 mins later, i went down, everyone was inside. Just nice.
I went up to do my 2nd march-in like 5mins after first dish is served (normaly was on 2nd dish but i went up early). So i think all add up to make it possible to end early.
One more tips, i have alot of things going on at the reception, free gifts and photobooth with lots of mask for them to take picture with, so as to keep them busy, so ppl won't leave the place (eg.smoking) n during ballroom door open or during march-in den your guests start returning back. Not so nice. So something at the reception to keep them there is good.
btw, yap they don't have 20 pax table, only a few hotels in Spore have that. But i don't think GPCH will have as it takes up too much space.
Photos not ready yet, photographer said have to wait 2-3 weeks. =\
