Gd Morning ladies!

Hi Ming
Thks for the compliment.
happy.gif
Ooh..i've alwaz wanted a mermaid type of WG, so tis the only 1 WG in d BS that attracted me. As for accessories, I got a fren to custom made 4 me using swarovski crystals.

HI Jenny,
I also like both enchanted & classic, was in a dilemma back den, dunno which 1 to choose. Actually decided on enchanted but was taken by another wed couple, so in d end took classic...still i was glad i chose classic coz i got many gd feedback fr friends & relatives..
If u still cant decide, Yes..by all means go down & view agn, see which u prefer most.
happy.gif
 
Hi Jenny

I think I will be taking Classic... saw Beth's wedding pics... very nice and romantic... the kinda entrance I like...

Hi Beth

By the way, wat songs did u use for yr wedding? Can give me some ideas? Think of songs, think until I almost siao liao... hehehe..

Wat abt u gals, any ideas wat songs u wld be using?

Hi Cool & Beth... juz wondering if u have any Muslim & Vegetarian guests on yr AD? Pauline suggested that we can squeeze these pple into chinese table and making it a table of 11 or 12. Juz wondering if it would be abit cramp?
 
Hi Ros
Yes, I had muslim & vegetarian guests on my AD. I went ahead wif pauline's suggestion to put 1 or 2 @ d chinese table so xtra tables wont b needed, can save $$ some more hee... In fact it isnt that crampy, 1 table alone can accomodate abt 11 to 12 pple.
As for the songs, I chose "The Gift" by jim brickman(1st march-in) & "Dreaming" by selena (2nd march-in). HIPV do provide selected wedding songs for march in, do check out wif pauline.

Hi Ming,
My friend used to custom made costume jewellery & sold it @ wkend market along clark quey juz for leisure. But now she's 2 tied up wif work commitment so she discontinue doing it. mine was a gift fr her for my wedding.
 
Hi Beth,

cos I went wedding show and show the entrance for Enchanted gdn..I like the leaves and flowers effect which made it look like a gdn entrance..quite dreamy ..like those fairytales so called live happily ever after kind..so I like enchanted oso..hmm..,will definitely go down to view again..
happy.gif


HI Ros,

your AD getting nearer and nearer hor...
 
Hi Beth & Cool

Thanks for the info... at least that put me at ease... still worried that it will be very cramp and pple won't be too happy abt it...

Hi Jenny

The enchanted gdn is nice but my FH didn't really like too much flowers... that's y initiately we wanted to take the Crystal theme....

And yes, my AD is getting nearer... my heartbeat also getting louder.... heeeelllllpppppp.....

hi gals,

i had my wedg dinner at holiday inn parkview this jan.
kaypo share something here:

- food: the guests like yam paste, lotus leaf rice, and pi pa duck

- steam groupa is not good. rough meat.. not sure if you all may consider deep fried instead to 'cover' the rough meat

- wedg favours: they like the wine charms

having said that, the common complains is that the service not very good leh.

hi,

just to check wif u all,for the invitation card,the address will include 11 Cavenagh/ Orchard Road or just 11 Cavenagh road?
Thanks a zillion
 
hi gals, if the doors adjourning to the ballroom is not opened, what is the no.of tables that the ballroom can contained? thanks
 
Hi Geberra,

From what I understand from the brochure they gave me, it's 18 tables just for the main ballroom. However, you cannot just book the main ballroom. You'll have to book the extended section as well.
 
Hi dear all,

I went to take a look at the ballroom and kinda like the ambience.. it looks rather grand with the chandeliers.
happy.gif


Just wondering, is there other hotel ballrooms with nice chandeliers? Budget is about $800 nett for weekend rate. Number of tables is around 25.

Any suggestions?
