thanks Purinne.
Is there anything that you girls have asked for on top of the standard?
Seems like everybody have 2 barrel of beer?

I did ask if I can have 2 barrel if I have it @ the smaller ballroom. But was told that I will not need it, cos I only have 22 tables.

So who is on long MC?

oh ... she'll tell u when u sign the contract
happy.gif
... but she's really quite nice so watever u feel like askin for as additional perks ... such as additional nite stay, etc ... can try askin ... they dun give discounts thou
happy.gif
...

they usu not keen on givin more beer ... at first i also thot of takin wine ... but mi sis said beer is more ex ... also, whenever she runs events ... beer is usu the item that runs out or not enuff
happy.gif
...

i guess u gotta see ur guest list too
happy.gif
... for mine, i went for free flow of beer coz FH's frenz all love beer ...
happy.gif
... if ur guests are mainly ppl who prefer wine, then go for the wine
happy.gif
...

for some coordinators (other hotels) they are very reluctant to give more beer ... just tell them u hav alot of frenz who drink beer thus havin free flow of beer is an impt criteria is ur banquet selection
happy.gif
... some will give in while some will offer another barrel of beer (ie givin u a total of two barrels)
happy.gif


hooe this helps

Purinne - The free-flow of beer is for fri/weekend is it? So they start serving beer during cocktail?

Hi Greentea,
my coordinator is Fiona Lee... urs too?
think she has just returned to work from her maternity leave.... she's very straight forward and will give you all the perks she can without you having to ask... but not sure about the rest coz only met her once to put the deposit...
Hopefully other MM brides with Fiona as coordinator can give you (and me as well) more advise... =)

hi honey_greentea,
usually they will extend the "extra freebies" to you when you sign up earlier with them.

It happened to me, I sign up on Jul 2008 and my coordinator gave me the "extra freebies" for the bridal show in oct 2008.

hi Evy, thanks for the tips ^__^
eh.. wat if i sign up with them earlier but could not attend their wedding show? will they stil give me the extra freebies that offered during the show?? =P
 

evylim

New Member
yep they will still give you that. check with the coordinator you meeting up.

Mine is Sen, she automatically give me with me asking for it.

hi greentea
happy.gif
tink they are quite ok to give perks before or after the show ... even if they dun ... just bug them abit ... they sure give in one
happy.gif
.... jia you~~~

I guess during the show, they will give you a pearl set (necklace and earrings)... if sign before the show, you can try ask too... they might give it to you... =)
but seriously, i don't think i will wear it unless i have the time restring it into something with better looking hooks to fasten the ends of the pearl necklace as well to change the earrings' hooks... as the metal parts don't look that good...

happy.gif

iris: yeah i agree ... was quite disappointed ... but FH even cuter ... he was so happy to see a string of pearl coz he was expectin onli one pearl pendent haha
happy.gif
... i tink so long u pay deposit by UOB credit card, you'll get the pearl necklace and earrings

Heard that the banquet dinner is not cook by Marina Mandarin, does anyone know the food is cook from where actually?

There're feedbacks that the food was quite cold when being served due to its not cook in the hotel?
