Hi Bubblepearl,

It will be best if you can give him a exact time, becoz on hot dates, he might take up other couples. For my wedding, I had my solemnisation at 7:45pm. He had another at 8:30pm in another hotel next to mine.

As for better timing, if you are going to have it at the wedding banquet, you can consider having it during your 1st march in. And most wedding banquets start late, you probably won't want guests to start strolling in during your solemnisation, so 8:30pm should be fine.

my ROM's on the 29th Jun 2007, and i've just contacted Mr Chan :D

Haha...so amusing, so he meets couples at Borders fountain...

Yes, i agree he sounds stern on the phone, was quite nervous calling him. Its just weird you see :eek:

Ya, i share the same sentiments as happyface, how to identify him?

hi moomooland,

i've met Mr Chan last fri. He was meeting a couple before us. Because i saw his pic from people's photos thus i recognise him. He will chat with the couple at the bistro cafe. My bf & I just sat at the table next to them when its time to meet him...hahaha..

The fountain is located at the entrance of Borders (Borders's bistro). It is not opp Lido one... hope this will help.

hi poorbear,

he will make small talk with the couple first, then talk abt the solemnization. It only last for 15 mins for me as he has another couple after that.

My wedding was solemnized by Mr Chan. He's a very nice man and will conduct the solemnization in both chinese/english. Very grateful for that asa my parents do not understand english. Good choice to choose Mr Chan

call mr chan, need to tell him where and wat time for my rom? i have confirmed the date but not the time yet. How?

My rom plan to be on 20Sep, too early to call him as i can only efile on 20Jun.

Help!

Its fine to call him early as he is very popular. My ROM is on Jul but I called him on Mar too..

Jus check with him if he is avaiable on that day. You have to tell him the details of the solemnisation eg date, time and venue.
He will then ask you to call him again to get his JP license number for e-filing.

Hi Sylvia,
Would like to check with you, what time did you invite JP chan to come down to the wedding venue? As I am thinking of doing my solemnisation at about 8pm. Will it be too late for him?
 

honeymooner

New Member
Hi MY,

I just let him know what is my solemnisation time and he arranged to be there at that time. Tho' he was a bit late then. hehe.. 8 pm is fine as long as it fits his schedule. becoz i know he agreed to a 8:30pm solemnisation on the same day after mine.

Hi all..those who are thinking of getting Mr Chan to be your JP, better act fast..I tot I was quite KS to call him 6 mths before but he's already booked for the day..

Hi, I have engaged My Chan to be our solemnizer for our ROM next sat too. Met him up a month ago at Borders....agree that he sounded stern on the phone but he's actually quite a nice elderly man..had a small chat with him before he went to meet another couple there too...he's really v bz
happy.gif


Btw, do we have to mention that we want the solemnization in Eng and Chinese or he will auto conduct in both languages?

Also, did he brief on the procedures regarding that day? Abit confused how we shd go about doing it....what if we repeated wrongly?!? Very malu..

hi all,

if my rom date is jan 27, must i call him up and ask if he is available or i can still wait? I haven't got a venue yet.

Hi Celine,

I would call him now and ask him. I called him 6 months ahead of my ROM and he was already packed for the day. I was disappointed.

If its too early, he would just inform you to get back to him at a later date I guess. No harm trying

Hi Rinnie, is your ROM date an auspicious date? 6 months in advance and yet he is booked!!

Planning to call Mr Chan tomorrow morning, hopefully he is not booked yet *cross fingers*
 

rayne

New Member
I booked Mr Chan more than 6 months in advance. His schedule is real packed. No harm trying to book him now at least you secure him for your date. He already has 9 solemnisations on my ROM day. So I would advise to book early.

Hi gals,
I have already booked Mr chan for more than 6 months. How long before solemisation did you contact him again? Do we contact him and get his license no and do efiling then arrange to meet up with him? Or meet up with him before efiling?

Puroland,
FH contacted him a month before our ROM but his wife told us, dont worry he will contact us soon... now left 3 weeks so we might be calling him within this week again, hehehe... we quite kan chiong ah =P
Yes, you call him and check if he is available for your ROM then get his license no and do efiling yourself then later he will meet you up again... =)
