Hi Rosalind,

You going over to HIPV today..to confirm means to sign contract and paid deposit of 2.5K rite?

Hi Ming,

you pd deposit of 2.5K rite? You sign the contract liao..?")
 
Hi Ming,

talking about Logistics, now after deciding on the banquet..I am going to sign ct on my renovation..I bought a new house so got to reno..troublesome hor..."

reno is not as easy as banquet loh...
 
Hi Rosalind - mine SBW wat abt u?

Hi Jenny
yup deposit $2.5k n already signed the contract
happy.gif
tonite its Rosalind turn ....

i didnt noe must also sign contract on renovation - where r u staying? heeehee ...suddenly topic on housing ....*oops*
 
Hi Ming... sorrie... wat's SBW? Anyway, I'm staying @ Bt Batok.

Hi Jenny... yes.. that would mean I have to pay a deposit of $2.5k so that they would confirm the ballroom @ the discounted rate.

Btw, next time dun think u would wanna go to his hse to eat... I have the same thinking as u... but after getting the new house... u would be so excited about it that u wouldn't wanna leave yr new hse... ;p My in-laws also staying nearby but I ended up going there only once a week...
 
Hi All

Juz confirmed my booking yesterday with HIPV. Very happy now. One load off my shoulder.

Was quite unhappy at first with Pauline because she requested that I be there early because another couple is coming after us... but in the end, she was late for our appointment. Hungry man = Angry man... so fed-up... but she was rather professional & we would happy dealing wif her...

Juz outta curiousity, did anyone of u gals requested for anything that's outta package?
 
Hi Jenny

Maybe, for my case, I have already gotten used to eating outside food... I have eaten outside food for more than 20 yrs... so pretty used to it by now.. ;p

Not veri healthy... but at least it keep me full... okie... lunch time!!!
 
Hi Jenny
meaning u will get your house (+ reno) ready b4 wedding date also
happy.gif


Rosalind - me at sembawang

didnt ask for any other perks (jsut based on the contract)
 
Hi
sad =( missed the HIPV wedding fair, not 2 sure if they hold it tis yr again.
Lucky, able to get some info abt HIPV here.
I'm thinking of HIPV too, Anyone tried their food recently and how’s their banquet co-ordinator – ok?
Any advices/comments welcomed =)

Heard dat though promo $ for HIPV just ended but they may consider extend it for u case by case basis if u r keen n sign up in early Aug04.

Hi coolangel: I would like to view e photos n themes 2, can email me pls at [email protected]

Hi Charmaine: I saw the HIPV pics, really appreciate for providing as reference.

Nice Day!
 
Hi Serene,
u can either look for Pauline or Christopher...they r pretty nice ppl to tok to. yes they will still consider to offer the promo package to u provided u r really very keen but hv to act fast...on top of dat, there's oso room for negotiation for additional perks.

during the show, we actually tasted their food...on the scale of 10, i would rate it 7 lor.

when is ur AD? r u considering other hotels oso?
 
Hi Serene

I have gone there for a wedding dinner last year, the food's quite okie... Like Sunnygal, I would rate it 7 too. For that price, I would think that it's value for $$ unless u are considering restaurant food, which are normally better.

I have also booked for my package there and have liaise with Pauline so far... she's been nice, patience and professional. Can contact her if u r really keen.
 
Hi Serene,

You can liaise with Christopher too..He's veri flexible and friendly...last sat, went down again..happen to see Pauline too..either one of them you can liaise with..for my case is Christopher...")

As for wedding show, heard from Christopher that next yr 2005 ard the same time may have wedding show again...but it a long wait and the prices may be readjusted...hmm..

Hi Ming,

are you the same Ming in ROM in Dec 2004? saw you there...."> when your ROM date?

Hi Ros,

You ROM liao? ">>
 
hi Jenny
its me (same person) my ROM in Nov 04 - what abt yours?

Hi Serene
i think its ok to call Pauline/Christoper to chx with them
happy.gif
 
Hi Sunnygal, Rosalind, Jenny, Ming :
Thks so much! Comments on their food r quite gd, think can rest assured. Managed to talk to Pauline today n got an appt wif her tis weekend. Ya, She's nice lady to talk to.

My AD is in Nov 05.

I haf also considered Carlton n Marina Mandarin. But seems comment on Carlton not too gd and Marina M $ abit steep. As for HIPV, their menu is flexible n ambience is gd, so most likely HIPV is my lst priority.

Keep update all after my trip there tis weekend =]
 
Hi Ming,

hee..I saw you there..so just wondering..me will ROM in Dec 03 leh...where would you be having your ROM? and when is your date of ROM?"))

Hi Ros,

how's ROM life for you? Me will ROM in Dec 03 ..
care to share where did you have your ROM?">>

Hi Serene,

Your AD oso Nov 05..me too..what is your date??:>>
 
Dear All, Good Day =D

Hi Jenny : There r few dates to choose n most likely will AD on 19 Nov. wat abt urs?

Thks Rosalind =)

Hi All: Wat r e things to look out for when booking of package. Rather lost here... Do i need to confirm e exact no of tables and how do they derive $ for deposit to pay. I got some vegetarian frens, do u know how they serve n wat's $ per pax / per table. Any extra perks they can provide under pkg, ops..
 
Hi Jenny

I ROM at the registrar and we had high-tea @ oriental hotel. Pretty simple event, got some of my friends to help me with the videography & photography. Gown, hand-do & make-up taken care of by E-Bridal. so, quite easy for me.

Immediately after my ROM, I gotten my keys for my house and we done some simple renovation work since it's a re-sale flat and it's in pretty good condition.

Anyway, life after ROM was okie, I stayed with my in-laws for awhile before my flat is ready. They are very nice people, kinda missed their food now that we moved out. Of course, there are also 'getting used to each other' arguements like... who wash the clothes, who do the mopping, vacuuming, etc... but quite fun though.

There was also one major arguement over our wedding dinner because my blur blur FH told me wrong table number he required... so end up I gotta re-search on AD again because of the minimum and maximum tables... blar blar blar...

Conclusion... still a happy recently ROM Bride :o) waiting for the BIG day...
 
Hi Jenny, i request for more carpark coupons, usage of their LCD projector (but subject to availability), change the anniversary dinner to extra night stay n a helper's room for day use.
 
Hi Serene

if u manage to get a table for 10 pax (the price is the same as non-veg menu)otherwise, u have to pay for individual (for veg)

like in my case, FH's side has 4 pple who take veg n my side (only 3 pple) we shall pay for the extra individual serving

hi Jenny
mine 23 Nov, heehee we just the opp - ROM mine in Nov n yours in Dec; AD yours in Nov n mine in Dec ...think we really have alot of things to share share ....

ROM jsut for both families (11-13 pax) havent think of a plc for lunch yet - wat abt U?
 
Hi serene,

if i'm not wrong, the deposit shd be $2.5K if u r taking the promotion package.

u dun need to noe the exact no. of tables but hv an est no. cos to use the crystal ballroom, u need to hv at least 25 tables.

the menu of the vegetarian will be given in the contract. if u group all ur vegetarian friends in a table then there'll not be extra charge...ie. the cost remains the same. However for my case, i only hv a few which i can't group them 2gether so hv to pay additional $65/head.

hope the above info will help.
 
Hi Serene,

that's one week exactly before me leh..hee...it's a sat right?..mine on nov 26th..so you taking the promotional package too with Pauline?
happy.gif


Hi Ros,

Hi Sunnygal,

You got all the above things you mentioned and Pauline agree to it...?

just wondering if it is too late to ask after confirmation liao..hmm..."??

Hi Ming,

your ROM is almost two weeks before me, my ROM almost 2 weeks after you. My AD almost 2 weeks before you and your AD two weeks after me..o hohohoho..quite similar hor...

Hi Charmaine
I know there is a charge for renting their projector....Cant remember how much pauline quotated me ....$300 or $350....
Look like sunnygal is getting it for free in exchanging of something?
 
Hi Ming : My frens n cousin whose Veg may be < 10 pax. Think of haf them sit wif those they know who's Non-veg n dine together.

Cos last time 1 of my cousin's wedd, think no choice gp my cousin n other pple who none she knows n sit together. She looks so lonely.. nobody to talk to loh =(

so if given a choice, hope can haf special arrangemt. do u get to know if HIPV can serve separately individually for Veg pple siting in a Non-veg table? Seems not Easy yo... =}

My lunch after ROM is at Pearl River located in Suntec, can consider. But they open fm 11.30am. can consider if u like chinese/cantonese food.

Hi sunnygal: A gd deal to exchange for an extra nite stay.. 1st nite usually too tired to enjoy e hotel facilities n fully relax. Maybe i consider swop 2 =D.
U mention $65/head for Veg pple, they get to sit wif e Non-veg pple n been served individually rit? $65- is how many dishes lay?

Hi Jenny : Yup mine 1 wk b4 u ... Meeting Pauline tis weekend. See how loh, hope everything smooth smooth loh...

Hi coolangel: can send me the pics to view view pls.. thank u u =)

HIPV gifts for the guest - is it chocolates or anything else to choose?
 
Hi Serene

I asked the same questions have u... coz I'm having the same problem. Replies by Pauline as follow:
'The charges for the muslim &amp; vegetarian guests will be at $65.80nett per person, there will sit together with the Chinese table – Eg : 8 chinese guests will still take the full table menu for 10 persons, whereas the 2 muslim guests will have their own separate set menu, if not if only 1 pax muslim then he/she can sit together with the Chinese table of 10 paxs adding them into the table with a together of 11 person seating in a table.'
 
Morn Serene

HIPV do serve separately individually for Veg pple siting in a Non-veg table (see email from Rosalind)

in my case, my god-bro &amp; spouse (pure veg) will be seated with my parents, siblings &amp; their partners (in red table)

vice versa for FH's side
