but think the free 1 bottle per table really help a lot~~hi Kalbarri,
You know what my contract on the house wine cost? You won;t believe it. its only 23 nett!! Bcos this guy quoted me a wrong price and after some argument, they have decided to give me the wine at 23 nett.
Well, i guess mayb bcos of this incident, they can;t promise me the extra 2nd nite...i dunno. Nobody knows...ha ha ha.....just guessing.
For those who are still negotiating the contract, ask for a nett price for the wine.

Hi Juv,
I got my wedding package at the hilton wedding show held in sept. I got free bottle of wine and the beer thrown in the package. I dun think i will use all 38 bottles? bcos we got hard liquor that i wanted to use. lots of old guests participating my dinner. but then again mayb not. so we asked for the price of extra house wine.and the guy who served us made a big boo boo but it is to our advantage. ha ha ha. but that is ONLY if we exceed the 38 bottles of wine.

blackhawk,
I will still try to fight for 2nd nite. Then how? everybody's requests also subject to availability. I dun think my low cost house wine is the sole reason for not giving me a chance to get a 2nd nite right? ha ha ha.....i think there mayb others who got some cheap deals and still get 2nd nite free.
Aiyah never try never know. Who knows? heh heh heh

4th dish - Emperor chicken : Very good
5th dish - soon hock fish : prepared as like other restaurants do.
6th dish - drunken prawns : prawns are good and chilli taste fantastic
7th dish - lotus rice : tasty.

Hi Juv,
Just went for my invitation card selection...you are right, they are not fantastic...alittle disappointed actually (disappointed with the shop as well, its not a shop, just a hole in the wall which is pretty messy and there were only a table and 2 chairs)..the cards are pretty boring, there was not 1 that was outstanding...sigh...but due to our tight budget, we just stick to the hilton selection.

Hiya Juv,
I chose an incredibly boring card...Two fold ivory card with emboss overlay. " Our Wedding" is printed on middle of the cover page...mighty disappointed...wanted to prove my FH wrong coz he say ppl always just throw the invitations cards away, so no need to nice..but I cant, coz the invitations are nothing special..so ordinary...i should have traded the cards for something else..but guess its too late now...
how abt u? which ones did u choose?

Hello Krissie...
guys just dun seem to understand this...even if pple are going to throw the card away, the card must still be nice...we feel gd if pple come up to us saying that the invites are nice..
i chose the long red one...kindof regret it when i send for printing. The whole card is plain so i ended up paying for the printing of the double happiness in front...more money

Juv,
You chose the red card with the ribbon? I tot that was rather unique..i totally agree with you on the statement:" even if pple are going to throw the card away, the card must still be nice"...I just want my wedding to be unforgettable...guess all brides would want that...I fell in love with the cards at cardblanche...but its alittle pricey...so have to stick on to those provided...sigh...by the way, when is ur AD?

hi...you might wanna explore printing your own cards? It can be more affordable. I'm printing my own with 2 inserts for less than $200 for 500 cards. Just a suggestion... =)
happy planning!

Hi,
Do u folks know which is the URA carpark for which the coupons are given to us? is that the one behind Far East Shopping Centre?
Hi Juv
My wedding is on 25 Mar and i arranged to have the food tasting this afternoon. The food is just great. Very good! Better do your food tasting soon so that your feedback can be taken into consideration. Try to get stuff done upfront, asap, so that u have less worries later on. Have fun!
