Hi Inlove, don't worry. You will look beautiful on your wedding day. Our body and look are not important. It's the confident way we carry ourselves that matters. I have seen ladies who are plain looking or more on the plump side but they looked very good. So, do what you can to make yourself look even better but just stay happy and you will look radiant on that day
Hi Stupy, do you mean my PS pixs? Or my AD pixs? You decided on your BS?
C0Co dear, thanks for the update. yeah! Lots of things to do now and you are right! Just sent out the wedding invites
My food tasting is next week, will let you know how it went okie!

C0Co, thanks for adding in Pat's AD. Sure! Will let you know how it goes.
Wedding9999, my food tasting is one of the perks I choose so don't need to pay.
As for food... we chose the following:
1) BBQ Platter
2) 5 treasure soup(I think, doing away with sharkfins)
3) Abalone with Sea-cucumber
4) Roast Chicken with crackers
5) Fried King prawn with honey
6) Cod fish
7) I forgot what this dish is
8) E-fu noodle
9) Yam pudding
Yan, I heard many comments that the cod fish is nice. I have also tried it during the last bridal show when they gave us food sampling. Also, I read in one of the earlier thread that the ctabmeat with buns is unique. I am not choosing it though cause never try but you may want to give it a shot?
Hey all 2005 brides, what all of you can do is to ask you co-ordinator for the next time Oriental will be holding its bridal show. They usually show you the food display and you get to sample the food. You can then have a rough idea what food you want to try during your food tasting.
I wanted to do that but Agnes told me they won't be having any show in the early part of the year. Sighz!

Hi
find the food portion for all dishes okay(more towards the small portion). u will feel neither full nor hungry at the end of the session. maybe i did not go for the rice/noodles as a staple food. The food is unique and quite nice. Oriental services have been very good so far.
my coordinator is Agnes and hving about 30 odd tables.

Hi wedding999,
Yeah, my mum also said cod fish not whole but actually cod fish is exepensive fish so I told her it's ok, we'll just try.
I am having about 45 tables. As for the perks, have not really decided but will likely choose:
1) Food tasting for 10 (confirmed)
2) A deluxe room for helpers (maybe)
3) A night stay on our anniversary (maybe) we are using the 30l barrel of beer to exchange for this since our beer is already free flow.
Let you know after our food tasting this Sun!
Hi Inc, I think their standard video montage display is at the left corner of the stage. As I am having 45 tables, I am considering having 2 screens. Agnes told me they can provide 2 screens but I need to source for 2 LCD projectors + a distributor.

Hi wedding999,
1) Anniversary stay in bridal suite
2) A deluxe room for helpers
3) Likely another deluxe suite maybe
Hi Inc,
We went to the ballroom and took a peek. I think it's still ok, the guests from the extra right side can still see from the screen so I am sticking to just one screen.
As for the food, we like most of it except the roast chicken is a bit tough. Told the chef already. The 5 treasure soup tasted so good my husband said he don't missed the sharksfin
Overall, they are very accommodating to our requests and comments and won't mind if you would like customize a bit
