Hi Huiling,
Thanks for sharing. Should be signing up soon.. I saw Vasanthi when I went down for visit..She is indeed friendly

Have u went for food tasting?

 

[amanda1982]

hi ladies... mind if in join in. my dinner venue will be at HIPV as well. it will be next year 22 May. my co ordinator is also Vasanthi. yes, she is very friendly and helpful. she had managed to help me to do some changes to my package.

 

[mrs_tan_to_be]

HI Elbarc,
Have not go down for food tasting yet.. maybe in August when the dates are nearer.. hehehe..

Partly me sign up for HIPV is also due to Vansanthi's friendly and helpful customer service. Im sure you wouldnt want to sign up with a hotel with bad customer service, or those with attitude problem as there are alot of stuff to settle with hotel before actual day.

 

[zljoan]

oooo...hui ling, you're going for food tasting?
is your banquet the weekend or weekday one?

 

[elbarc]

I agree.. Initally I am intereted in another place. But due to the bad service, I gave up on it. Glad that Adeline is good. Prompt reply to emails too. Btw anyone going down for wedding workshop this Sat?

 

[valen_vv]

Elbarc> Will be going down to the wedding show this Sunday. It starts from 11am to 4pm. Those interested to sign up have to be there early so that you get priority to the dates available.

Adeline is my coordinator. She's friendly and detailed. Great service too! For those interested, can look for her at the wedding show. I just booked my package with her last Saturday. =)

 

[mrs_tan_to_be]

HI Sobe,
Yeah, planned to go food tasting. Initially, i want to get free table for AD but my hubby insisted to go cos he say very impt to sample the wedding dinner food as he felt its very impt to ensure good food is served to the guests...

My AD is on weekend, sunday.. y leh?

 

[zljoan]

Hui Ling, me also thought food tasting impt but fiance prefers to have the complimentary table..guess it's highly possible that we'll forgo the sampling.

Cos weekday and weekend banquet menu slightly different. hee...nvm, still can share what is nice after your foodtasking yeah?

 

[mrs_tan_to_be]

HI Sobe,
OK sure.. remind me when time is near..getting more forgetful nowadays.. haha

Hi Janice,
I didnt choose the appointed HIPV wedding cards where they have the map printed behind.. I got another one.. anyway, the HIPV Map,can get the little inserts which is already cut and can put together with the invite card when u send out to friends or relatives..

i forgot to ask whether there is cost on the map anot.. i think its free or wat.. if not its 100 pcs maybe 10 bucks.. cannot remember liao..


u chose your cards already? which one u choose?

 

[jsim15]

HI Huiling,

I oso din chose d appointed designs..so limited only 3 or 4 designs woa..i nearly chose d 'jia/qiu' word one..i chose d pink col one wif d 'Xi' word wif circle circle one..duno u noe which one anot..u leh?

 

[mrs_tan_to_be]

hi janice,
i think i know which one u choose liao.. hehehe..

[jsim15]

Yo huiling..

[mrs_tan_to_be]

[elbarc]

If i am not wrong 10 adult + 2 baby chair need to add extra money.. Eg. 888 + 88
Better for u to check with your coordinator.. do let u know okies ? =)

[winter2331]

Hi All,

I'm a dec bride. Totally lost on when shd we contact the coordinator to discuss on selection of theme & wedding favours, invitation card & food tasting etc. Can someone advise.

Do anyone hav pics of the wedding guestbk provided by the hotel? Heard that the hotel could lend us the ang box on AD, hav anyone use it before? Care to share.

Thanks alot in advance

 

[jac15]

Hui Hui ling

same same, i am meeting her at 2pm after you..

I am not chosing for the food tasting..

Vasanthi say she will inform us to view the new ballroom when it ready.

 

[krystal80]

hi winter 2331, your co-ordinator will contact you all in due time to settle the things. From what I understand is that the whole mth of Aug there is no food tasting done coz of the renovations....Otherwise, u can just check with your co-ordinator as to what is the timeframe for stuff =)

 

[smilydia]

hi im am considering holiday inn.. however looking at the threads, no info as in whether the food is nice?

anyone can comment on their food and service? I think good food will bring a very good impression of the whole event.. so im quite particular..

Thanks in advance!
