tsh, my first reaction when i saw the ballroom was also tat the aisle is short, so me and FH decided to 'parade' ourselves longer... since we're coming in frm seperate doors, my FH will walk in first, then followed by myself, he'll wait for me at the center before we walk down. Gotta really do a tortise walk... hee. can choose a duet song for this or play around with songs la. hee.
 
hi gals,

Yup!!! The aisle is indeed very short lor.
But i thk since the ballroom itself oso not very big, so still ok lor..
Yeah, chose a duet song

i dunno leh, I a bit scare to walk along d aisle by myself 1st before meeting my FH at d centre of d aisle. look at d brighter side, GPPR is pillarless and have high ceiling. Futhermore, think i wil hav ard 25-28 tables, so shld not look cramp in it.

1) i have spoken to sales exective, VERA over d phone. is she a wedding coordinator as well? hw is her service huh?
2) Does GPPR easy to negotiate for additional perks and wat kind of perks can i ask for?
3) So far, hw is GPPR overall view? feedback?

Hi ladies,

Y'day 6 June 06, I just went dwn to GPPR to view the ballrm - summer theme and both me n FH feel comfy but the march-in was pretty short. I'm just wondering how the co-ordinator - Vera svcs...coz we met up only for abt 20mins. And I do not know what are the things I shld take note n discuss. Anyone can advise?

Thanks...
 
JuzGer, still mus call to remind them for food tasting? Thought they will send me a letter instead... hmm, feel so lost on the banquet, seems so many things to discuss, yet no news frm them, also duno when to collect invite cards. Haiz.
 
Hi sweet kar,

Its better that u give them a call to remind them abt the food tasting. I jus called for mine (AD on Nov'06) cos next mth 7mth liao..very difficult lor.

So i booked mine on 16th July lor.

Usually is one mth b4 wedding date.

For me i do early cos hubby gg oversea soon lor.

My co-ordinator is Karen. Since Eric promoted &amp; transfer to ther dept, so she is in-charge.

Cheers,Summer

<font color="aa00aa">hey summer,

i like their projectors type v big. hehehe....</font>
 
think their projectors are overhead, iirc
hey when u gals print the cards,
use inserts or print direct?
use normal or translucent paper?
must we pay more for printing on translucent paper?
where did u print from?

erm anyone else heard about their rebranding?
 
<font color="aa00aa">hey greengal,
i printed direct onto the card itself.
i did ask my printer, they do charge for the translucent paper.</font>
 
hi JuzGer!
print direct how does it work? will they print one sample then show u 1st? print direct must use hotstamp? if print mistakes how..? which printer did u choose? heard some have a LOT of mistakes

hi all
my ad is in oct 06. when shld i collect my cards?when shld i go for food-tastg? when shld i meet my coordinator to discuss the theme i want?

btw, any idea, wat is the max no. of tables we can squeeze in the ballrm? my guest list seem to be overspillg..
 
mix is 35. best is collect couple months in advance i think. couple weeks to print and distribute one month in advance. but some need to do earlier if got overseas friends. think food taste must min 2 months in advance in case wanna change dish

HTH =)
 
btw, any of you planning to add design to ur weddg cards? i find the card simply too unglam..

n may i know roughly how much does the total printg will cost?
 
hi! how to add design..? i'm keen too but dun really know how or what to do. i not very artistic leh...

ya think 35 might be kinda squeezy
 
Hi juzgal,

Thks for yr infor.
So can i know yr printer, how much they charge?
Me oso in the midst of finding printer.
Got detail bet hotstamp &amp; insert, find insert is cheaper lor.

Wat u gals thk?
 
Sky, u can find the packages available at their website

hi summer, where's your foodtasting to be held? i think print on cards cheapest, followed by insert then hotstamping. i called speed tech, they charge $70 for print on 200 cards and $80 for 200 inserts iirc. HTH... have u collected your cards? did they mention about the rebranding?
 
Hi Greengal/Juzgal,

My food tasting is on 16th July (sun)
At the same time will collect my wedding cards as well on tat day cos dun wan spent another day go down lor me lazy lor. So Speed Tech is the cheapest if print on cards lah? Btw u gals by chance got its add? How long they need to print leh? Do they give out free gold string leh?

Also wat rebranding leh? Can provide more details?

Hi Juzgal ric, so u also using Speed Tech?

Hi Cristine ric, my co-ordinator is Karen.

Cheers,Summer
 
hi all,

how do u all know who is ur coordinator? is it the one that u sign with?
i sign with Karen, but when they send the contract to me, it was Veralyn.
So i m confused who is my coordinator.. haha..
 
summer, do share more after yr food tasting, think i'll jus wait for them to call me down for food tasting. Btw, food tasting only available for weekday?
 
Summer,

So your co-ordinator is Karen? Is she good?

XHZ,

I'm just wondering whether is she good or not? Cos I've been liaising wif her... Still thinking whether shld I sign the contract with her???

<font color="aa00aa">hey summer,
