ladies!!!! =)
Jun > Mine is 20.11.2011.. I think I have plateaued. =( I'm stuck at 53kg. I cant seem to lose the access 5kg! gasp.... =((( Parisam is the traditional engagement I think. I had a mini-one already, where they exchange plates. They called that the Nicchyam.
Plush > oooh! that's enough time to plan a fabulous wedding then! =) Well just make sure venue, tentage, caterer and decor are taken care of. Those are the most important! And of course look out for your wedding saree early. =D heh.. Book your makeup artist!!! Very important! =)
And btw my temple invitations have arrived! And ladies, they are sooo pretty! =)*super happy face*

Hi Ladies, I have a dilemma. Read on and give me your opinions please.
Well, this was what happened.
Whilst my hubby and I were eating after the ceremony at the hall of the temple, I noticed the servers disposing the trays of food into black trash bags. I was puzzled and looked around and saw that poeple were still around. Not many but some of them, whom were our closest friends and relatives who helped us out . So when I sent a family member to check why they were throwing and if we could pack the food, one of them said that there were no tupperwares to take away the food. It was only after we reached home, we heard that our friends and a few relatives, did not have anything to eat in the end cos the food was all cleared up. Of course, furious over this, we confronted the caterer and refused to pay the remaining amount of about 50%, which is less than 5k..Of course the caterers, apologized and agreed that it was their mistake. They did ask us to be lenient and we told them that we will consider it. A few months later, I received a legal letter summoning me to pay up. During the mediation sessions, the caterer claimed that they were not allowed to keep the food for more than 4hrs and it was out of concern for the guests (to prevent food poisoning)that they threw the food away without consulting me, my hubby or our family members. Because they had an ISO guideline to back their claims, I had to pay up as the verdict was in their favour.
I honestly feel that this is totally unjustified. They are one of the pioneers in wedding catering and they claim that their food will turn bad after 4hrs??! It is a notion i cannot digest. That meant that they have been serving all weddings food, that at some point, expired. Whatever they promised - a supervisor at site, tupperwares to pack the food, unregrettable service, all were not delivered at all. I have been adviced by a few to sue the caterer for bad service. So im still thinking about it. What do you ladies think? Ild appreciate your feedback and maybe i might be able to understand a POV Ive never realised before.

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum - my wedding is taking place late next year, but am a lil OCD so decided to start early..
Am just starting out looking for VG and PG. My ceremonial wedding will be at tank rd temple and am looking for an outdoor venue for a tea-time buffet, semi-casualish event.
Would appreciate it if I can get some help, and I look forward to getting to know you girls better

Hi plush >> I am not sure if I am too late to give you recommendations. Pothys has the largest collection of sarees. For costume jewellery go to Sri Narayana pearls.
I used Luxe Nuptials for my ROM. Nice lady. Her work is not too bad.

Hi all!
Helita! Thanks for your reccomendations! I am going crazy with photographers..initially we had almost all confirmed and then one-by-one they started backing out just as we were about to pay..grr..do u have the contacts for Ashok and William?
And i'm looking for a venue for outdoor garden dinner, for about 300 people.
Sumi --> for outdoor you can try fort canning or if you want sth different, BlueSky at Garden Asia. I realllyyyy loved it but it is extremely ULU (in like Kranji) and was over-budget for us. but so so so gorgeous

Rina Kaur: Haha I havent started on that list yet! I need to lock down my venue before I can start on the rest. But i know my MUA will be Ananthy or Sung..Both are good frens of mine! When is yours btw?
Kala: Yeah I think i have narrowed it down to Burhill at Botanical and The Terrace at British Club. Gonna view British club this weekend. I might have my AD at Fort Canning coz I love the place! I went for the site visit at Garden Asia and it was disappointing
Ulu plus they is no privacy..walk in guests can stand around and peep at your event

KALA: oh no, how come they back out at the last minute?? Im thinking of substance film. their work seems really good!
SUMISWEET: oh yes venue and date comes first! how exciting to be planning everything . Who is ananthy? Do you have her online portfolio, would love to check her work out.

Hey Sumi : oh really? well maybe it is so ULU nooone will be able to just walk-in. hahaha, anyway good luck in finding a place and keep us posted!
Rina : well they claimed someone booked them but i think it is common courtesy to let us know that someone is also interested in our dates so we can quickly pay and reserve..but they told us AFTER the other couple paid..anyway I am not going to bother and waste my time on them. For photography, I am leaning towards twenty4frames, they seem good, covered a few indian weddings and quite affordable. Do you have any links where I can view substance films' videos? can't seem to find any online. Thanks!

PamB: Oooo mine will be for about 80-100..Not sure if I can fit everyone at British Club but will go take a look this week anyways. Also considering Grand Copthorne Waterfront - They do a Promenade River solemnisation as well and the package is not too bad.
Rina: Check out ananthy's profile on facebook.. Harni Ananthy.. She did my makeup countless times and always makes me look flawless
Kala: Hahah true! Will let you guys know..Have you looked at Keshav Shista for your photography? Ive worked with him on a few shoots and I really like his work!

Sumi, the caterers for Hotel Fort Canning the last i checked for the Indian Menu is Jagga aka riverwalk tandoor famous for their outlets in cq/bq & in khalsa. They are also the caterers for Furama Waterfront.
Their food isnt fantastic, its very ordinary...they monopolize the punjabi market and at HFC the price of dinner buffet is soo high...
Alternatively, what about holiday inn city centre? My bro is holding his wedding reception in holiday inn city centre, the place isnt too bad service is good etc.
