Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre

Hi Purplepiggy,

Ya, i also signed up during sept and enjoyed the $30 off promo..

Hi Peggy,

Ya, she got the theme mixed up. Nope, all are fake flowers. Actually this theme looks quite nice. But all the fake flowers are really look run down and spoilt the overall effect.

Yup, me also holding the banquet in orchid room. Hmmm, think i shall get the crystal theme. I think if you all are considering the enchanted garden, had better go down to have a look.

Or perhaps consider the classic theme lor, think its all using real flowers leh..

Again, my 2cts worth view..

Hi nata
any idea if the crystal theme has any flowers?...your AD is next month rite?....so you don't have time to wait and see the themes on the wedding show?...think I'll see the show and decide...if enchanted is better with real flowers I'll defintely tell Pauline to get real flowers...and I wouldn't mind to pay for it....
 
Hi karen
yeah quite disappointed if they decided to use fake flowers for enchanted theme.

Hi nata
when's your AD again?....maybe will pop in and see your theme

Hi Assirac

Think Pauline had mixed up with the Dates. She told me is on 4th Dec but Lynda said the fair will be on 10th Dec. Dun know which is the right date too..... Until now there still no sound no picture abt the wedding fair....

Hi Jenny... Ur AD is quite near too mine ah... mine is Nov 21... heehee
 
Hi rusty and karen
how to sign up for the fair huh?...through pauline or lynda arh?....yeah ...no sound or picture.....if 4th dec can't go must work
sad.gif
 
Dear all

I understand and confirm with both Pauline and Stephanie that the show is on 10th Dec. Pauline mentions tat this will be feature in this coming Her World Brides magazine... She suggests tat I get the mag as it will be free admission with the mag... Not sure if true or not cos she seems to mix up a lot of things lately...

Hope this help all cos I will not be able to attend.. I have a seminar on tat day which will last the whle day.... Sigh...
 
Hi Peggy

Like what Lynda says,go and buy the Her World Brides Magazines to get free admission to the Fair.

Lynda,true lor... Pauline seems to mix up alot of things lately... 1st : is the Wedding Fair dates... 2nd : is the Wedding theme... 3rd : She got it mixed up again with Peggy &amp; HB with another couple. Sigh Sigh Sigh.....
 
Hi Lynda,

I had bought Her World Mag since days ago but didn't see any invitation to the show on 10 Dec though there's advertisment for HIPV.. Is the cover page featured Jamie Yeo and Glenn??? Month - Sept - Nov 2005
Anyone can advise me as i am interested to attend... Thanks.
 
Hello Rusty piano

I do not think it is under tat issue... According to Pauline when I asked her last week, the issue is not out yet and will be coming out in the market soon.... You may want to check with Pauline on this... Not sure if she mixed up on this as well... Sigh...
 
I am so worried that is it Pauline blur or she is too busy, too many things on her mind hence always give wrong info. So scare that she will not co-ordinate well with us during our wedding preparation.
 
Hello Rusty piano

I agree with you on this point. I am also trying to arrange a meet up wif her and could not... Most of her week day schedule is fully booked and my husband works shift so it is quite hard for me to cordinate a meet up wif her... I am now sorcing for other hotels....
happy.gif
 
Hi Rusty,

For the worries that you had with Pauline..
I think you just need to send her reminderS i think is pretty ok.. Better to call than email her..

Guess she is too overloaded in her work ba, from previous thread it seems that most of the pple are signing up due to her efficiency and friendliness..

For that, im keeping my fingers crossed.. Lately, as my AD is coming near, had more contacts with her.. My wedding planner and me is not very happy with her service.. Find that she is not very accomodating and pro in her service.. even kinda of attitude lor..

But with so many previous testimony for her, i can only conclude that maybe she dun quite like us. Perhaps also, its so coincidence, our wedding is on the same date as their wedding show.. Thats y she is overloaded to entertain us liao.. :P

Lynda,

Hmmm, despite the coordinator service, i think you should consider the food which is really nice, the setting which is also quite good and in terms of the costing, so everything balance out in the end.. Maybe u would like to consider again..

kao_cheers.gif
 
Dear nata_de_coco

Thanks for your advise... I actually like the ballroom a lot and one of my colleague whom has her wedding there a few years back also gave thumb ups abt this hotel... However I am a bit disappointed wif Pauline and her lack of response... I tried calling her a few times and she seems always busy and gave a few wrong informations along the way...
 
Hi nata_de_coco,

What you had commented make me more worried.. That's y i hate to depend on others. Besides ourselves, who can do better than arranging our own wedding. Somemore we are only their one time customer. Guess i have to oversee everything myself when nearer to AD. Really have to pray hard liao. At least you still have a wedding planner so i guess not that bad. Anyway, all my wishes to you &amp; may everything goes smoothly for you till after your big day!!
 
Hi Lynda,

Did you realise, some hotels can be so hard sell, kept calling you to meet up with them and yet some hotel are so busy to entertain some of us here. haha.. no choice...depend on their popularity..
 
Hi Fruity,

Have you got the packages by now? U were too asking for Novotel Clarke Quay's packages right? Sorry that i am unable to help as i only had soft copies.
 
hi all
actually quite disappointed with Pauline after she got mixed with me and FH with another couple cos the day before when I called to cfm the appointment for the next day she already mixed me up with another couple so I reminded her not to be confused the next day...however even on the day of appointment she met us with the other couple's file!!!!!!....I'm trying to relax now cos preparing for my ROM on 22dec and my full time course from Jan06-Nov06....near my AD I will be totally stressed by my course....so if Pauline gets messed up again...I will defintely stamp my foor
 
Hi all,

Hmmm, actually not to worry so much lah. Actually not really need alot of coordination from Pauline. So far, juz for the food tasting session appt and the confirmation of details at last 2 weeks. Thats all..

If you need any additional decor, etc. can actually liaise with their florist directly.

Think maybe bcos of the coming wedding show that caused Pauline to overloaded. Thats why they had another new assistant. Think after the show, everything will be ok le..

As what i know, jenny has no problem with her. So not to worry so much and dec is always a bz period, many brides are confirming the banquet. Thats why the forum so active, but after that will die down againz..

Hi Rusty paino,

I heard from Pauline that their wedding package price will increase after 10 Dec 05 but not sure increase by how much. So for those who wanna sign up HIPV, better check on the comparison now, rather than go to the show blindly.
 
Hi Fruity,

A roughly guide as i do not know whether when will the price increase. Better check with Pauline - 67300122

Email to : [email protected] for the packages.

------------------
Mon to Thur - $678

Fri &amp; Sun - $738

sat - $768
 
Hi all,
