Hi Tomyam,

Who is your coordinator? I was charged $250 for the LCD. You mean they waiver the LCD for you? So good?

What type of baskets did they gave you to put the rose petals? I had intended to put rose petals on each tables. Did they give you the rose petals or your purchased them? WHere did you buy from?
 
Hi Tomyam,

I'll be holding my wedding dinner next year. Glad to hear that everything goes well for u.. How's the stage deco? Was the march in short cos I saw from the layout that it's quite short..

Talking abt carpark, I fully agree that parking is a problem..still dunno what to tell my guests..
 
to clyne,,,

just tell them where are the alternatives...
anyway it is not tat expensive to park elsewhere..
forum galleria and far east shopping centre will cost only $2 per entry.
 
hello everyone,

i'm planning to have my banquet at hilton too. seen the ballroom and everything seems fine. also glad to hear so much favorable comments.

but how's the food and the service of the waiters? do they change the plates after say 2 dishes?

pls advise. thanks!
 
Hi,

Does anyone hold wedding dinner of about 45 tables in hilton grand ballroom? Heard from my collegue trhat she jus attend one dinner at hilton with 42 tables but very cramped? Mine has abt 45 tables now a bit worry!

Can anyone advise?
 
Dear Eve,

Have you seen Mandrain Singapore ? The grand ballroom at level 6 is very nice, y don't u go there & have a look.
 
Hi Tomyam,

You mentioned trading in the ice carving for the beer. How many more litres did they give u - 10L?
Those items that you bargain for are done in the meet up a few weeks prior to your actual day wedding rite? Thanks
 
Hi Tee,

Thanks for your reply. However, I had already booked with Hilton so it is too late! Anyway they had assured me that it is too not too bad but just want to confirm again.

Does anyone have free flow of beer for table above 40?

Eve
 
eve, interested

if you bargain more
they are willing 2 give you
free flow of beer

that's how i got mine....
 
Hi MIA,

But I had already signed the contract with them. Initially we had only confirmed 30 tables but now we had abt 45 tables. Wonder whether they will still entertain us? Do u know when is the appropriate time to do so? During food testing?
 
Hi Eve,

Are u having your banquet at the Grand Ballroom?
Think u shd let them know that u have increase to 45 tables and ask them abt the beer thing ASAP..dun wait till food testing cos they may have to amend the contract if they decide to give u free flow..
 
eve

you should give them a call now
the more tables you have
the more bargain power you have

why dont you ask them first if you
have that many tables
what are they going to offer you

act like you are forcing yourself 2 have
that many tables and make her promise those
FREE FLOW of BEER

no harm trying

good luck
 
Hi mia,

thanks for your advise. Had called them and they already gave me free flow of beer without much bargaining. Relieve!

Thanks for your help!
 
Hi,

Had anyone just had their dinner over? Heard that Hilton had more varieties of cards now (11 types) so much more than previously!

Heard that their decorations also change? Had anyone seen the new decorations? Wat choice do they have?

Pls advise!

PF
 
Hello I'm also going to confirm my banquet with Hilton soon. But recently my friend told me that she had attended a wedding there and the sound system had problems during the march-in. Now I'm worried..... so far, anyone heard any comments of the sound system???

Pls advise.
 
Hey Jacq,

Hilton provides the LCD projector at a fee at abt $250. But u may want to try asking them to waive that. They might agree.... good luck!
 
Hi mspiggy

Thank you. Have called Hilton and they are willing to waive the LCD projector for me.

Hi PF

Hilton has about 11 or 12 cards and 3 types of guest books to choose from. I have heard from June that they have just changed their decor recently. You can ask them to show you the pics for the new decor.
 
Hi Jacq,

They r charging me $250 for LCD. How many tables r u having? What other goodies do they gave you?

PF
 
Had my wedding in Hilton this yr june... had a high tea and a banquet following....

Eve, 45 tables not really cramp.... rest assured cos mine was exactly 45...

they waive the LCD charge for me as I demand for it... this are the benefits one should get in a wedding as hv already paid for the ballroom so everything in the ballroom should be already accounted for and free for the couple's usage...

June can be very straight with her reply... dun be intimidated by her.... If needed u can code names of couple whom u know they r getting it for free... anyway... using of the LCD... is at no cost to the hotel....
 
Hi musical,

Thanks! But were some of the guestd been blocked by the pillars? Will talked to her again.

PF
 
Hi PF,
understand that Hilton will provide 2 big screen that will feature your march-in so dun worry that your guests will be blocked.
 
Hi,

Hilton willl provide some % of free parking right? But the carpark lot was really limited. So where do the rest of the free parking should they park if the lots in hotel are all taken up? Does the free parking applicable to the open car park?

E
 
Dear all,

Forget to ask how many waiter or waitress is assigned to the tables? Is the service good?

PF
 
I understand that its 2 waiters to 3 tables. VIP is 1 to 1. They would give you some free parking tickets for both the hotel carpark and the URA carpark at the back but there's limited quantity. I do not know about the sound system but should be fine I suppose.
 
Hi PF

I have around 23-25 tables and mine is on the weekday. I suppose they will give perks for weekday package. I have also enchanged some of the items for an additional night stay.

Hi mspiggy

Mine is on 18/12/03. When's yours?
 
Hi PF,
I not too sure abt the sound system... heard that there's some disturbance during my friend's friend's wedding. so now, I'm also trying to find out more. but on one seems to know.
sad.gif


Yes... Nov is rite. They told me that it's 3 waiters to 2 tables and VIP table is 1 to 1.


Hi Jacq,
Mine is on 8.9.03
 
Hi Jacq, mspiggy and Nov,

Thanks for your info. I will have to confirm with them again during my food tasting! Now I have 11 pple for food tasting, wonder whether they will charge extra for one person.
 
PF,
They let u have the food tasting first? I thought we must sign the contract before they let us taste the food. hee hee...

So if you're not going to sign up then u have to pay for the food rite?
 
Hi,

I'm planning to hold my wedding in Oct 03? How's Hilton? Deciding between Hilton and Crown Prince. Any comments? Mine is a weekend with 38 tables.
 
Hi Jacq,

OK! Will let u know after 15 Nov?

PF

Hi Maro,

Think Hilton is better than Crown Prince!
 
Hi,

Can anyone tell me whether the waiter/waitress will serve the food or the guests will have to scoop themselves?

Worry
 
Hi PF

OK..thanks!
happy.gif


Hi Worry

The waiter will scoope the food for the VIP tables but the rest of the guests will have to scoope themselves.

Hi E

There are 3 types of design for the guest books.
One is in ivory colour with some wordings on it and the other two are those traditional red books.
 
Hi Maro,
Hilton min requirement for weekends is 40 tables but u can try asking them to reduce it.

Hi Worry,
Only the VIP tables are served by the waiters... and the rest are self-serving.
 
Thanks, mspiggy.

But how's food at Hilton? Good ambience? How's service overall? Did u hold yr wedding there? Actually went to have a look. Need to reply them by next week otherwise they release the date to somebody. Need some urgent advice.
 
Hey Maro,
I'll be having my wedding with Hilton on Sept 2003. Have just confirm with them... haven't had my food tasting yet.

So far, the comments I heard is okie for the food.
