Yuki,yeah living in Aust is not too bad but I considered the lifestyle here a little too boring, thats why we decided to move back. My parents have a hs in Singapore, so tentatively I still have somewhere to stay when I return, but we will start searching for our own place when we returned later this yr.
Gintonic and dougan, thanks for the pics and cards! Gin, your photos are really great! Who is your photographer? BTW, CONGRATULATIONS!!! So how many mths has it been already?

Yuki, yeah moving back to Spore late next mth or early Nov, can't wait! BTW, my parents dun stay in Spore, we are not locals
So that means I will be staying on my own.
I am in Perth, boring place...Sydney is a busy city, quite a good place but I prefer Melbourne as I reckon it's not too busy nor too quiet. Hmm, I dun think I can help with the recommendation of hotels in Sydney, I have been there only once. Sorry can't help.

Hi Yuki,
How's your wedding preparation? Done my food tasting in mid Aug. Portion huge. I find the presentation of the dishes slightly plain. Gonna change the soup and fish. Dishes slightly salty. Food-tasting like normal dinner at the restaurant. Provided a feedback form on the taste and presentation to be filled up. The chef even came out at the end of the dinner to interact.
Cards already printed so now trying to finalise the guest list. Am targetting to send out the cards 1 mth prior to the wedding.
Hi Sweets,
When is your big day? How are you getting along with the preparation?

sweets, thanks.. is it on sat or sunday?? Maybe I shall pop down ..
great to see comments abt the dishes.. I am in the process of selecting my dishes for my banquet. Would like to get some feedback from "ex" intercon brides. Any good dishes to recommend so that i can add to my menu and which are the not-so-good dishes which i will try to avoid. at least i know that steam black garoupa should be out from my list.

Hi ashley
thanks for your feedback..
i signed up last year so for weekend dinner mine is $818++. What does yours cost per table?
Michelle told me the cod costs $128 per table of 10. is that the price she quoted you?
Was your steamed black garoupa wiht black bean sauce? wondering if i can request to change to light soy sauce.
How was it not good? not fresh?

Hi tigerlily,
As I signed up during the show, there are only 3 dishes to choose from each category. The fish I tasted was the steamed black garoupa with light soya sauce. We were initially impressed by the huge size of the fish but the meat is not soft nor sweet. The chef says that the meat of this kind of fish is like this. Not that it is not fresh. Michelle quoted $40+++ per table if topped up with cod fish.
My wedding is on 30 Oct (mon) so per table is cheaper at $658+++.
Hi Yuki,
Me also have not done much. Just completed my PS too & waiting to choose pictures. Agree about increasing guestlist, especially my FH' side. From 30, now we have 33 tables. My menu is more limited compared to the normal selection. I will be choosing :
1. suckling pig, drunken chicken, roasted duck, jelly fish, baby octopus
2. shark's fin with crabmeat (had wanted thick soup of shredded abalone, fish skin, conpoy, chinese mushrooms, sea cucmber & yellow chives but it tasted slightly & looked like normal hot and sour soup)
3. deep-fried scallops coated with mashed taco
4. braised clam pacific and lapa shellfish with garden greens (spinach)
5. still deciding between star garoupa or cod fish
6. pork ribs with sweet and sour sauce
7. braised e-fu noodles with fresh crabmeat and yellow chive
8. mango pudding
Can't remember the max no. of tables. Think 40 or more. 35 is the minimum no. of tables for weekend dinner.
I chose the white rectangle card. Not sure if can pick 2.
Does anyone know about the music part? Will the hotel be providing us any songlist to choose from? I m cracking my head over the songs now.

Hi gals, i went to bugis yday...so kaypo n went to c the newly revamped ballroom. only peeked when the doors were opened as there was a wedding lunch gg on yday. Wow!! It has become more grand as all the doors have been changed to white base with mirrors. Even the interior has more chandeliers on the ceiling n at the side of the wall. Also they oso made some changes to the reception area.
Ashley & yuki, max tables was 40 for the old ballroom. But 37 is the most comfortable no. I had 36 tables and although there were some tables with 12pax seating but the ballroom still looked v spacious, easy for our guests to move ard.

Hey yuki, we used our own laptop to play the photo montage. But for express highlights, my VG settled it by himself. Intercon provided the projector and screen as we chosen it as one of the perks. For 1st march-in, we used original cd but for 2nd march-in and champage pouring, we got hubby's buddy to burn both songs into 1 CD.
wad list of songs r u referring to?? the fanfare?
Dun worry, U b asked to go down few wks before AD to test out the songs.

Hi sweets thanks for sharing the pics! the new ballroom does look very nice!! so exciting =)
Gintonic, do u mind if i ask u wat fish did u include in your dinner menu? am trying to decide between taking the black garoupa or splurging and taking the cod. And if I had 11 pp at the table will it be very squeezy?
Has anyone tried the Wok-baked spare pork ribs with tangerine? or the scallops, squid, cuttlefish with XO sauce? any idea if the spare ribs are nice?
thanks!

dramama, michelle told me tat 12 to a table will not be squeeze as the table can fit 12 i think but the price will be adjusted accordingly ...
Gin, fanfare mean wat ah ..sorry i not too sure... i was wondering if they have the songs i wanted for march in n other then can jus use their CD
u bring the burn CD? is it ok to burn MP3 songs to a CD?
Gin, fanfare mean wat ah ..sorry i not too sure... i was wondering if they have the songs i wanted for march in n other then can jus use their CD
yuki, fanfare refers to the intercon staff serving the 1st dish. I used the fanfare song provided by intercon. Its "BE MY GUEST" from the beauty and beast soundtrack. I alys liked cartoons alot so i dun mind using a cute song for my fanfare. Something diff from other weddings i have attended.
tigerlily, i chosen black garoupa with light soya sauce. But the only dish i liked most is the shark's fin roe although it was salty during our food tasting and on actual day. But its v unique as its orangy in color. v rare to c at other hotels.
dramama,for 12pax seating..u need to pay by per head for d additional 2pax. Eg; each table is $738+++ so the 2pax will be charged at $73.80+++ each. As for my vegetarian guests, i paid $65.80+++ each...i got 8 of them. 3tables with 12pax and 1table with 11pax. Fyi, 12pax seating will be using a bigger table. Normal table size is meant for 10 or 11pax.

Hi Yuki,
The top-up is $40+++ per table for the cod fish & $50+++ per table for the star garoupa. Deciding between the 2 now.
Hi Sweets,
Thanks for the photos. The ballroom looks great.
Hi Gintonic,
Thanks for the clarification. Good that the hotel is using that song for the 1st dish. Was also thinking about it. I m using mostly jazz and oldies. Seems to be more suitable for the ambience.

tigerlily, if the vegetarian is the 9th or 10th pax, still have to pay full price for that table + additional $65.80+++
My cousin's gd who is a vegetarian couldnt attend the wedding last min and end up i paid an extra $65.80+++ for nothing.
So better confirm with ur guests asap...dun spend unnecessary $$$. As for muslim, i'm not so sure cos i din have any muslim guests. Black garoupa is nice..fish was alittle overcooked during food tasting but was fine on actual day.
Ashley, gd to hear that u r using jazz songs. it was my PG who suggested cos he felt that the songs suited the ambience more.

Gin, icic thanks
Be My Guest is nice ....seem like becoming popular nowaday me too having abt 5-8 vergetarian guests ...michellle suggest if we can have a table for all the vergetarian guest then dun have to pay extra but if we mixing them with other table then no choice.
Ashley, will u be going to taste the new dish after making the changes? have to pay seperatly right?
