Not yet.. it depends on your budget and style you're going for I guess. I tend to favour those I spotted on the wedding scoop website.. u can check out those for inspiration :)

Yes! I signed with them also.. our AD only a week apart, i took imperial ball room, how abt u?
My bridal is love story..

Haha! I took the Grand Mandarin Ballroom. My bridal is from The Aisle Bridal. Did your bridal shop advise you when would be the good timing to go down for gown fitting? What about the wedding theme? Have you decided yet? Their newly showcase Chandelier theme suits your Imperial Ballroom alot! Even the carpet fits too! I'm kind of worried that if i take the new Chandelier theme, it may not turn out nice cos for the Grand Mandarin Ballroom, the carpet's quite oriental feel.

Hi all, more or less settled on the date 24/3/18, but have yet to sign with hotel or anything else. Appreciate if you all could advice me on the things needed... kinda lost on the wedding stuff. I have already done my rom, so need to think what to do during the actual banquet itself. Any recommendations/ideals?

Hey babe, are you looking for wedding lunch or dinner? large or smaller scale ones? I think hotel & PWS should be your priority first. Then you probably can google on some entertainment for your guests? Like photobooth and live band etcs?

Hi all, March 2018 wedding as well. Just touching base somewhat. So far I've only settled gown ,ore or less and shortlisting venues. Since we only have around 50 guests, our venues are rather limited if we are looking at so called wedding venues. Still thinking if we are going to have photography and videographer though. Any recommendations on these? Thanks in advance!

I think you can consider One 15 Marina Club since the maximum is 60 guests for them.

For photographer and videographer can consider Wayne's studio. I have signed up with them :)

Hi all, I'm also a March 2018 bride! Have booked venue, bridal studio, AD PG and soft book JP although mine is just a small scale event. :)

Thanks and congrats too! I think it's always better to book early! Cos my friend's wedding is in Dec this year and when she tried to book her preferred JP in April, she's being taken up and she sent enquiries to about 20 and only 1 is free. Hahaha so after hearing that, I quickly booked mine.

I''ve managed to engage the same JP from my future Dasao already, the JP says its too early for him to commit but for now he says tentatively its a go. Heheheh. Realized this thread is less active than before already. :(

How do you all find and engage JP? My HTB said it's too early to look for one.

Hi a_sira! Congrats! JP means Justice of Peace. Well you probably have to first start hunting for venues then!

Hehe, can always check through ROM websites for the list of licensed solemnizers, but im just kind of worried on their 'reviews".

I heard some of them are very "strict", somehow it will tense up the whole atmosphere. Anyway, I planned to do my ROM and Tea Ceremony after the lunch reception. Is the planning weird?

Hi Kytheon, I think you should start finding your venue first if you intend to do it at the hotel. As for me, I'm also doing my lunch wedding on 24 March 2018 which apparently it's an auspicious day so hotels are easily fully booked especially on weekends. Mine is a small scale of 8-10 tables only. So far I have asked 3 hotels and 2 of them are fully booked for March & April. I still thought I'm early and ahead of time but in fact I'm not. Lol.

Hello.. i'm a march 2018 bride too. Have booked bridal studio, venue, actual day mua, pg, vg and jp.
Doing my prewed shoot next mth.
I saw some of you post about engaging live band. Can pm me the quotation of the live bands?
Any anyone has vendor to deco wedding album table?
TIA.
 
I've shortlisted a couple of live band and will be heading down to the cafe/bar/bistro to listen to all before deciding. As for decor of wedding tables, I'm going to DIY myself! I've enquire on a few vendor and they are soooooo expensive!

Hi all,
Just signed the venue for my AD, went to a head monk of a temple to get confirmation that this date is gd for me n htb at the insist of my parents. So word of advice, get religious leaders confirmation on the date that you have selected. dont be like me, learned the hard way.

Anyway, to share my views on wedding planning. Visiting religious leaders (mine was Taoism for both families) really helped alot. they will explain to you on the things needed to buy and do. And also what not to do. Mine need to set the bed and guo da li, which the monk also gave me the date and time to do these. Really depend on you, you may wish to consult FSM if you have more funds. After the trip to the temple, suddenly i know how to start planning for my wedding and what things to let both families know what to do.

Have yet to take pws, planning to do it end of this year, easier. now what is left is sending the rsvp of friends.

Just my two cents thoughts.

Hi I wonder if anyone here happen to know the measurement of the album table? Want to get the tutu table skirt from taobao but not sure if it fits especially the height.

Hmm, a little weird cos the end of lunch reception signifies the end of the whole banquet and hence your guests may start leaving already.
