hiya gals, don't mean to be unhelpful but i think it's easier if you just contact HI directly and ask them to send you the package details cos the packages are all different for the weekend or weekday, lunch, dinner, ROM, etc. you should already have a good idea of the table prices from the posts above. and i think the first thing you should check is that the date you want is available. the hotel will be in the best position to give you this and all other relevant info.
for the additional perks for the wedding show, I believe some are listed in some of the posts above, though I think that was for the weekday packages. For the weekend they are offering 1 complimentary bottle of wine per confirmed table, extra 10% parking, extra 1 night stay in the bridal suite and free photography. i'm not too sure what the free photography entails (except that it comes with an album and CD) cos I don't think the hotel has exactly worked out all the details yet. there'll prob be more info during the show. bear in mind that these are only applicable for bookings for 2005.

mmm... not much to share lah...
just ah ga ah ga e no of guests u inviting, budget per table.. then very fast u can ve a list of hotel dat will fit yr requirement.
Once u ve an AD date, call them to check whether still available (better to ve 3 or more dates, incase e 1st few got booked)
make appointments to view e ballrooms, then u ve to decide whether can u accept blockage (meaning pillar in ballroom), whether u mind sharing e reception with other couples (cos some hotels can do 2 or 3 wedding per night) n do u preferred long, short or curve aisle, or high or short ceiling.
by e time u viewed e ballrooms, u can determine all this, frankly, in e end u dun ve dat many hotel venues left to choose from.
just wat i ve experienced (if yr date very hot... better 'book' fast. Also for wedding shows, tentative booking made b4 will be cleared for booking during e show n no tentative booking will also be entertained.

Hi EA
ya... when i 1st looked a t e menu, me also got confuse.
ok e menu goes like this.
depending on which package u get (wkday or wkend)
Each category u ve to pick 1 dish n add up e sum of it.
(think wkday is 8 dishes n wkend is 9 dishes)
the sum of the dishes equal to e cost of table b4 the 3 plus (which is 5% GST, 3% service tax n 1% govern tax).
if more than u can either pay e different or change e dishes, less than u can also change e dishes or u can just take it (no refund given)
As for e AD dates...
u can get yr mum to check those chinese tear out calender (on it will ve good day for wedding or moving house etc) but is only general if u want a more detail, u ve to go find fortune teller who will compare u, hubby n both sets of of parent's 8 characters to check for aus. dates (these will depend on how pa tan u all r)

I will not be taking Shang as well, due to the price n location but i still like their ballroom. Mayb u can consider Grand Hyatt as well cos the pricing is the same as HI.
I will be going to HI tonite to view the ballroom as there will be a wedding dinner tonite.
Pls update me after the HI wedding show and what are the extra perks included. Thanks.

Irene,
I have been to grand hyatt liao but 2006 booking only available on Oct and the coordinator even told me that they have the fortune teller to calculate the good dates for 2006 and those good dates will be block without free perks lor. Me so shock to hear that.
OK will update u on the perks available in the wedding show but 2006 banquet are not entitle for those perks lor. Me now looking at Grand Cop too, to see if can negotiate for lower no of tables for weekday lor.

The sharkfin and the seafood Ee-fu noodle at the wedding show was fantastic.
hi cool, are you asking about the 2005 or 2006 packages?
2005 is $628+++ (weekday), $768+++ (fri and sun), $788+++ (sat). 2006 is $30+++ more for every category.
there's no free table given in the wedding show perks if that's what you mean. i think several of us have posted the various perks that the hotel is giving above. if i'm not wrong, the additional perks listed were technically only for pple who confirmed on that day (i.e. 26 March). Not sure for long more the hotel is extending this.

Slimmy,
I think there is another show for Sheraton in late April. Is the ballrm nice, I only know their food is very good?
Michelle didn't extend the offer to me even though I told her mine AD is on Jan 2006. I went to see a wedding held in HI last week, didn't really like the deco and surprisingly the staircase wasn't decorated.
I am shortlisting Marriott as my first choice now. I will be going Grand Hyatt tonite to meet the coordinator.

hi Jen, i was told that the staircase deco is included in the package for 2005. i specifically asked about it before i signed up. it's part of their theme.
Irene, the projector is one of the options you can pick in the HI selection of additional perks so it's FOC as well.

Hi EA,
Wat is ur email, send u the info.
But the package i have is for 2005 only.
Hi Irene,
Grand Hyatt not bad for Hibiscus room only. The rest of the room is ok only. But they are not open for booking yet for 2006 lor. Sheraton ballroom is L shape, is abit disappointing when saw the ballroom. But the coordinator is very friendly and there may be a discount on the wedding show for per table basis.
