Hi berry & ibs!
i'm a Sporean & my hubby is a Msian. I had my wedding dinner in Penang last month. Like both of you, I was searching in vain for a gd make-up artist & hair stylist there. However, due to time constrain, I cannot afford to go up to hunt one prior to my wedding. I dun trust my ILs' taste. In the end, I did my own make-up & went to a salon nearby the hotel to do a simple french twist. Comments rcvd were good!
I agree that the info on Msia's bridal service is very limited. I saw there are quite a lot of bridal boutiques in Penang. Perhaps you gals can spend a few days to hunt ard.
Good Luck!

Hi gals!

ibs: Evergreen Laurel is good location. There's a hair salon there where my SIL had her hairdo & make-up done for her wedding last Dec. Not bad, but dunno if the lady is still there.

Hi Sos,
If you are looking for Kuas, you may like to visit House of Etiquette (http://www.houseofetiquette.com). They have beautiful Kuas too.

Hi sagi,
Wat u frenz said are not true! i dun find that m'sia photo shoot & gown are not nice, personally i feel they have better skills than spore, ppl command that just becoz they dun really go to search for it, or they just dun like m'sia, anything from m'sia they will just said no good or cheap. Me & husband not a m'sian, but we just dun like ppl look down on others.

hi berry.
the name of the bridal house is called covershots. it is housed in colonial bungalow with a garden and all. it is along jalan ampang in kl.
unfortunately, their web site is not working. if u have frens working in kl, get them to check out the place for you and get their contact numbers. then u can call them. i have lost their numbers.
i didnt get my package from them though coz i completed my posting there before my wedding and didnt want the hassle of travelling up and down.

Hi to all the brides who are having their weddings in KL 
I am a S'porean, hubby is a M'sian. We got married last mth with celebrations in S'pore and KL. We had our wedding reception in Pan Pacific Kuala Lumpur. Friends and relatives commented the decor is nice and grand Food is good too. The service is excellent. Plus factor is the price is not expensive. As for those who need a photographer, the one we engaged is fabulous! I highly recommend him. He is a freelance and his works is better than the local package I got here.
He can be contacted at 012 307 6220 (Peter Sim).
Cheers

Hi Berry
Sure, m happy to share with you and sorry for the late reply. His package is :-
(1) 2 photographers including him
(2) Both take unlimited shots
(3) 1 CD with all the unlimited shots
(4) For hardcopies of the photos, he will develop 6 rolls - 5 rolls of colour, 1 roll of black & white. All the hardcopies will be based on your selection after viewing from the CD
As I had only dinner reception in KL, his charges were RM1,500.00. Comments from friends/relatives, his works are good. Yup, I don't mind sharing the photos with you however I do not have the CD with me. I have the photos with me.
The price in Pan Pac range from RM 570 to RM 700. 4 different kinds of menu to choose from.
My sister-in-law did my make-up for me. So, am not sure about others make-up artiste.
Hope the above helps. Do drop me an email ([email protected])if you need any details. More than willing to share with you
Cheers

Hi All,
Anybody done their photo shooting in JB? Any recommendation
I have visited a few studio in JB. Their photo looks really taiwanese style.... Think will take up a package in Spore (more ex)! Heard from my friens that "Du Hui jia Ren" is not bad....
Any actual day photographer and make up artist to recommend?
A million thanks!

Hi all brides-to-be who will be having dinner reception in KL. I am M'sian working in KL (FH as well), but we decided to get our package from S'pore. I had checked out a few places in KL and not very impressed with the service. Covershots is ok, but the package is not worth it compared to what you can get in S'pore. Oso, my friend spoke to the designer at Covershots and she was not only unprofessional, but not too interested in your business kind lah. Their basic package in includes indoor/outdoor photography, their graden counts as the outdoor one. If you want to take in location around the Klang Valley, you have to pay more and the no. of photos given are limited.
Divine Couture is in Renaissance Hotel, the lady there is quite professional, you can check them out.
M'sia does have a bridal mag, more like a directory, very exp, about RM19. Quarterly publication. The latest one is out already, saw it in the stores.
Suggestions for dinner venues, Cyberview lodge, in Cyberjaya, about 1/2 hour, but they are new and would be dying to please.
Berry, have your dinner at Bon tons, it is a nice place. In KL, if you want it to be nice you would have to pay for it. Tropicana's service is crap, I just went for a wedding dinner there and half the guests did not get served alcohol.

Hey Shazz, have you got any recommendations for hair and make-up services?
Was considering Cover-shots or White&Lacy but they charge an arm & a leg for it. RM400 per session! So if I use them for the church wedding in the afternoon & also for the dinner, that would set me back by RM800! Amazing...
I've just booked Prince Hotel. The best of the lot so far. They r very eager to please.
Checked out Bon Ton & Passion Road. Both VERY pricey ~RM220/table. If asked to choose btw those 2, I'll go for Passion Road instead of Bon Ton.
Hated Mandarin Oriental. So unprofessional. Kept me in suspense and then sent wrong info to wrong place.
JW Marriot was nice too, but the rooms are very small and some has pillars blocking the view.
Got my wedding gown & shots in S'pore. Designs so much better.
Hope those who are still searching finds this helpful.

Beanie,
I was given a contact by my friend's mom. I have not met with her but have spoken to her, she sounds quite professional. She does makeup and hair for commercials as well. I was told that she does more 'natural style' and she even told me that she would not be able to do heavy makeup.
Anyway, post your email, I will send the contact to you lor.

Just to add, don't go white & lacy. She is quite ex and her style is very lian. My sis used her. She is not receptive to suggestions and get very defensive. dat's why I am not using her. Oso, this girl that i told you about charges RM600 hair and makeup for both day and night. For trial she will charge a min. of RM80.
Shazz,
tks for your advice! i also think Covershots not worth it (esp their actual day photography package rmb4500 ++) just it happens to be one of the few best in town...
so you recommend Divine Couture at Renaissance for the photos, right? do they hv good gowns too? (thinking of getting everythg in one shop)
i hv also visited Picasso at Sunway Pyramid, seems their photos are good as well but did not try any gowns. any comments abt it?

Hi Shazz,
My email: [email protected]
Thanks in advance for the contact!
Geez... thought S'pore was expensive, didn't know KL can be so expensive too. My make-up & hair for the photoshoot costs only $150 in S'pore.
Sent an email to Covershots to ask about their package. They sure didn't sound too enthusiastic.

Sharon,
Have not heard of Picasso, but the only problem with M'sian bridal places is that they offer this cheesy settings for your photoshoot, you get to choose from a variety of 'sets' and different sets of baju for the 'sets' lor. I did not want that, plus I did not think that the service would be very good. divine c is a branch of the s'pore one. apparently, they use the same fabrics etc, only it is cheaper. The prices seems quite ok, but I did not compare it with s'pore tho'. There is a bridal shop at the back of KL Plaza, Orson Liyu. Haven't been in there, just passed by. M'sian designer. Just try it lor.
