For cheongsam, you can try china town shops or there's a shop inside orchard hotel gallery(i got mine there, not sure how much you mean by affordable, but mine is short cheongsam <$100) or at the 1st floor of orchard towers.

Hi Karen,
U are welcome.

BTW, if u are taking from one-stop BS, think there is a slim possibility of reducing cost if u remove the bridal car rental from the package. The most is only $200 less.

-Nt taking any BS package, as not keen on studio photos. Tailored made a WG ( with 2 different train/sash for 2 dirrerent look). Bought a Off the rack EG and get my tailor to added up so ribbon 4 me.

- no viedographry. Just a AD pohotgrapher as we plan to take some out door shots on the AD

- Diiner is in a small resturant, mainly for immediate family.

- got a MUA that dont charge extra for starting early. (Ad i have many places to go at the actual day . HTB will have to fetch me at abt 7am... hee hee)

- HTB coat .. no problem... using the one he tailored made during our ROM.

- Corsages/flowers etc intend to source around for sutiable and reasonable price.

- intend to use a Bus plus instead of car. They had a offer for AD this year, not sure it will be extended to next year

guest book etc... my friend had bought it for me in australia...

Cheers,

renziz

[puroland]

I think Zoeanne did not check this thread anymore. Does any one has the contact for getting the cake @JB for GDL?

 

[jasmine23]

hi puroland, read somewhere is @ basement 1, city square... cant rmb the shop name though

 

[sgalgal]

You can cut down your budget on your bridal package, it's a waste of money especially when you will only display those photos once on your wedding day, and then kept inside your cupboard most of the time.

Save these money and get a better AD photographer that at least dare to charge S$2000 and above as their basic package.

 

[bwcm07]

i fully agree with galgal, the bridal shop wanted to charge rom package at $488, i took my friend tris who receomnd this freelance photographer and charge $250 with all prints back n cd n slideshow 4 me...........the bridal shop is not happy as i took thier package that had no pgotographers to save $2888, i was even told by the shop if i wanted reprints , it will be $50 per pc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[blessed_1]

hi could i have the contacts for the bilssful thots? also couldn find them online? and the number for the london pink and gold col cab. pls email me at [email protected] thanks a bunch!

 

[ltrista2001]

hi, anyone can share with mi where 2 buy e fake flowers, ribbons and diy ang bao boxes? can share wif mi ur MUA and photographer.thanks my email is [email protected]

 

[lyons]

<font color="119911">hi LIN, my MUA is sharon tan from "a touch of colours". and my photographer's Hilarion Goh. Both really good and nice people too! If you want their contacts, let me know</font>

 

[tingie]

so to cut costs about the BS? Basically it's WG,EG, flowers and indoor/outdoor photography right?

I am thinking of just getting the gowns and decorating the bridal car (not car rental), then only do photography during AD. .anyone did this before?

 

[elcy_05]

Hi brides, I have 12 bottles of red wine and 4 bottles of white wines left frm my wedding selling very cheap cos I am pregnant now and my husband is not a wine drinker.

Red wine = Red Deer Unoaked Cab Sauv (S$17 per bottle)

White wine = Penfolds Rawsons Retreat Sauvignon Blanc (S$24 per bottle)

Take all 16 bottles at S$280. You can sms me at 97771374 if keen.

 

[joinblack]

Hi bride

please email me the contact of you MUA and how much she costs..

Btw, what is the standard pricing for MUA?

 

[lyons]

<font color="119911">hi joinblack, pls email me at [email protected] and i'll send you her portfolio</font>

 

[dew76]

Hi iViED,
Not sure if you still check this thread. If you do, pl let me have the contact no. for the Champagne Gold London Cab. Thanks so muchie

To all,
Can get cheap nice boxes for angbao box from Daiso - at Plaza Sing or IMM. They also have decorative items like ribbons, heart-shaped stuff, etc. All going at $2. I like Spotlight too at Plaza Sing but the prices are much higher.
DIY my own wrist corsages and earrings as presents for jiemeis. Also my own angbao boxes. Think it's fun and a great way to save

Btw, anyone know of where to get cheap and nice wedding favours? Stumped on this now...

Thanks!

 

[ivied]

Hi Dew76,
Have sent the contacts to you. What kind of favours are you looking for? I have seen some nice fans but in Malacca.
