Hi all, my first time here.
Will be planning my wedding in Aug but have not found any hotels yet. Was thinking of having my ROM cum dinner at marina mandarin coz I saw lotsa good comments on the poolside thingy. Anyone will be kind enuf to share their tots n experience wif me? Any idea how much budget to expect?
Oh yeah, one worrying thing. What r my chances of pulling off a wedding by Aug this yr? Coz I see so many of you booking it at least 1 yr b4. Getting a bit stress now.

Hihi,
Just wondering is there a difference between viewing the ballroom during a wedding show and viewing it on normal days (as in just make appointment with the co-ordinate to view? Will the ballroom be deco with theme or something like that for the show?
Thanks in advance

Hi Winnie, there are certain things that needs top up. Think the florist will do up more elaborately. The plates are bigger, used only for VIP tables. The theme is generally the same. Just more elaborate on wedding show. OVerall abt the same.... But is good u pop by to see the different themes for actual weddings so you can manage ur expectations. how u signed with MM ? When s ur intended big day ? Gotta try to book earlier...
Hi Nec, I have some differing views. heehe... To me, the ceiling at grandballroom is not high
I have seen higher ceiling. Certainly looks nicer. BUT, we like the grand chandeliers. Not many hotel have such large chandeliers. It makes the place looks grand.

haha...wendy, ok.
i didnt fancy the lights in the grand ball room...preferred those in HIPV, intercon or orchard hotel even.
but, i'm not taking the grand ballroom!! haha...so much for all my opinions.
i'm taking the even less high ceiling, vanda.
as long as i get my dance floor!!!!

Hi all,
We're also considering the Vanda ballroom. Infact we went to take a peek last sat on our own and happened that there's a wedding dinner. Hee.. we didnt went in, just loitering outside the ballroom.
The ballroom really look quite cosy (from outside). The reception area is private and may be quite crampy for couples who does not intend to open up the ballroom before the dinner. Hee.. but this is not one of my concerns as I don't intend to keep them standing outside.
The aisle is indeed quite short, but we're ok with it as we had a long aisle for our rom already. Hee...
Just to check with u all, what are the usual perks that we can asked for during our negotiation? Im quite clueless on this. Can anyone share with me?
Thanks in advance!
(Ps: my email is [email protected] incase its not convenient to share online.)

hey...
i went to see the grand ballroom at MM but thought the match in was quite short. We asked the co-ordinator if we could have the match in longer but she mentioned that the stage can not be shifted due to the backgroup.
Any one has tried to shift the stage in the MM grand ballroom?

hihi,
tink for the 2 ballrooms that mm have, the march in is quite short due to the rectangluar shape of the ballroom..have seen others hotel ballroom whereby their stage can be moved, hence it can create a longer march in..=)

Mrs Tan,
U are a offical BTB for MM? I attended a wedding last night at hill top and te match in is very long...
But realise the ppl stop clapping half way they were matching in so a bot weird... Probably that's the benefit of long match-in...
Have anyone went to any MM weddings b4? How's the food?

Hi Ladies, yes, the aisle in both ballrooms are short. As what Janet has mentioned, I have also encountered clapping soften after half of the the march in. Initially I prefer long march in as well. But cos my church aisle is pretty long, so I think its ok to have a shorter march in for dinner...
Sunflower gal, its impossible to shift the backdrop for MM. What I can suggest is you tilt the shape of the ballroom to face the side of the room instead, mmnn.. u understand what I mean ? you come in from the entrance furthest from the washroom, and walk through the entire ballroom sectionally. Meaning to lay the carpet from horizontally instead. BUT BUt BUt, the backdrop will be in the centre, and I do not noe how they can transport the backdrop to the far end... You guest will see the slides at their right sides then... not sure if you understand what I mean..heehee..

Hi Mich..... the 2009 rates are out?? I didnt see any 2009 packages rate there.... Did i missed out anything? I only saw the lunch package for 2008,and also one of the coordinator who showed me the vanda ballroom say that they are only settling bookings for 2008. Can you share the lunch 2009 package with me?

Hi ll,
My apologies dearie....Didnt know you were referring to lunch package....Erm the 2009 package rates are for dinner only...hence you might need to call up and ask for the 2009 rates for lunch....It shld be an increase of $50 I think....

Hihi all,
We cant make it for the wedding show on sat. But MM emailed their 2009 package to us. So we're wondering what are the standard perks given during the wedding show on 12 Jan.
Did anyone took photo of the setup? We're currently waiting for the dates from our geomancer which might be out this week.
Pls share any info/ observations from the wedding show.
Thanks!
