Hi BTBs,
Have not posted anything for a longgggg time. Getting married in three months. 28 Jun 09.
Just my two cents' worth: HIPV is a good place and it is reasonably priced. But you got to watch out for the pillars that stick out from nowhere. The food is so-so, although many have claimed that it is fantabulous. But the wedding coordinator, Vasanthi, is a gem.
Luv,
Bhav

SaraLash: i would consider booking for my honeymoon only after seeing hw much me n my FH have to spend on the wedding..
In fact during the NATAS fair prices could be bit cheaper and also they throw in some gifts and etc..
I stayed in a private villa in Ubud..it was a one night stay n Bali is beautiful so do go there if u are considering SEA...i highly recommend it..

Hi Lydia
I heard that Emerald beauties used to do bridal make up previously but I am not too sure if they are still doing it. But I have not heard many brides or brides-to-be talk about them though.

Hi BTBs,
How have you been? Think you guys are the newer batch of brides that I have seen on this website in a year. I was carefully following thru the advice from the earlier (mow married) batch of brides. But you guys are equally interesting!
Just my two cents' worth after reading your posts:
- When you go for make up trial, they tend to do you up in lighter tones, less powder and foundation. But on the actual day, they up that volume by at least three times. I had one such experience with an MUA discussed here in this forum during my ROM. When i did the trial, I thought it was quite nice. But on the A.D, it was waaaay toooo much. People did not recognise me. When i saw my photos, I was white on the face and dark from neck down (from this, i think u can tell i am dark-skinned person). So when you go for the make-up trial, tell the MUA to stick closely to the way you would look like on the A.D.
- Your MUA should tie the saree for you. Dun waste money getting an extra person to do it. Not only is it costly, it is too much of a hassle, because your saree-tying helper will be waiting for your MUA to finish and vice versa, and you know at these wedding events, time is very, very important.
Hope this helps!

Hi Guys,
To follow up, I went for my trial. I wasn't too happy with it. The liquid foundation and powder used made me look way darker. I expressed my concerns but the MUA insisted that it's ok. I also am the kind who does not wear too much makeup, just pressed powder and I felt the makeup looked really heavy. The MUA said that that amount of makeup is necessary for it to show on fotos. I felt pressured, cuz b4 I went for my trial, I kinda made up my mind that I wanted to settle on this particular bridal from what I've read and seen. So I paid the deposit..now am not too sure...
I know I know..big lesson for me... for all u guys out there who have not booked your bridal...think about it first
I'm really confused and would appreciate your thoughts on this. I have seen some pics where pple look too white cuz of the foundation. But somehow, alot of bridal fotos, even though there's alot of makeup...dun have this issue...so I'm not sure if it's cuz of the type of camera used and if it's the digital ones that end up making the faces look white.
I just want to look the way I am usually...maybe just that extra touch with the eye makeup and blusher that brings out your features...so is it really neccessary to have alot of foundation..I'm not too keen on mentioning the bridal I went for guys...don't want to offend anyone...

hi pple,
to my knowledge,its not always necessary for a mua to tie the saree unless its stated in the package when you engage her.as for my cousins weddings,the mua brght in someone to tie saree ofcoz prior arrangements were made & that was separate cost.normally the charges ranges from $50-$100 depending the styles you want or no of times you require.
When you meet up with your mua,tell her your specifications clearly and note down what she agreed to do for you.its better NOT to assume she'll tie saree for you on the actual day as not all mua's will know how to,then you'll be in trouble.
Preethi10- i feel bad for you.but call up your mua immediately and tell her sternly that you are not too happy with your trial.tell her you must be satisfied & not her! you are paying it for it dear so you 've got the rights to speak up.if she said that the amt was necessary for photos,then what work is left for the photo editors??? pls dont spoil your mood on your ad,tell her right away.it'll be gd if you can share with all of us here who is your mua so we wont go through the same thing.maybe a li'lll hint will be great too.
Bhav- regards to your bad experience,its gd that you share your experince,it'll better if you can tell us ladies here who is the mua so we can be aware of 'her' too.as i mentioned earlier, a li'll hint will be great!
come to my question, does anyone know how singapore chinese chambers looks like? any pics of it to share? ;P

Hi Veron, if you are looking for wedding sarees, then you shld go to JEWEL PALACE. its at buffalo road. opp the old tekka market taxi stand. you can ask anyone there. i always go to this shop to purchase my sarees. my ROM saree was from here too. realli love their collection. have recommended alot of ppl.they hv 2 storeys, so pls go to the 2nd storey.
