Hi all,

My friend have shortlisted MC as one of her wedding dinner venue in 2008. So would like to know what perks to ask for when meeting the coordinator? She is planning to have a maximum of 27 tables for a weekday.. Do you all think it is possible?

Hey JLee,
Long time no see.How have u been. i've already signed up with MC. How abt urself? Which hotel are you deciding other than MC?
Personally i prefer the romance theme. The garden theme looks abit too white which i think the old folks won't like...hope this helps
happy.gif


Hey Tif,
wow tats soon...so excited for u. Hey once u got the pics of your AD do e-mail me ur pics can? [email protected]
happy.gif


Hey Cheryl,

U're most welcome. Do go down and take a look. Can get something in mind for ur new house.
happy.gif


Hi Gina,
Mind if i ask when is ur friend's AD? If its not a hot date, i suppose u can negotiate with your coordinator.
Other perks prob u can see if beer and carpark is impt to your friend. Hope this helps...

Long time no see too!
happy.gif
Was busy with work tat I put my wedding prep aside. Now is time to work on it again
happy.gif
Same as u I also find that Garden theme too white, the old pple will not like it. But do u think romance theme is too black n dark?

Anyway, I think more or less we be booking MC. When ur AD? Mine at 31st Dec08.

i went down last saturday to look at the ballroom. it was a garden theme that day. and i must say it looks very different from the pictures. it actualy looks really nice and grand! - they added more leaves to it to make it look more natural.

i also thought i'd choose romance theme cos of wat i see from the pictures. but now i'm undecided until i see the romance theme.

suggest you see the real thing before deciding.

Hi Jen,

im glad to see a positive remark on the garden theme.. im gg down to see next week too.. what are the flowers they used ah? Geberas is it? i cant figure it out from the pic rayston sent. so frustrating cos all the photos are not clear.. =/

Hi JLee,

I also confused.. haven decided my theme yet.. but anyway my sister advised mi to chk with them if we can change the colour of the flowers.. anyone has seen a change of colours? so far i see the romance theme.. only used red roses.. i believe we can customize right?

I picked my BS le.. acutally i do alacarte. so i got a few recommendatinos if u want to know more.. =)

hi tiffany1612,

i realised what is different. think the photos they used to send out only have 4 stage columns? but the actual ballroom i think they put up more - that's why it looks much better.

that time i went down, they used a mixed of gerberas and roses. my coordinator told me it's open for choice. we can choose whether we want gerberas or roses, and also the color too. quite happy to hear that.

Hey JLee,

i've not seen the actual garden theme. So cannot realy comment. But most imptly is which deco u think u like most.
happy.gif


I've already signed up my BS (www.blumesh.com) and actual Photographer(www.tinydotphotography.com).
Not taking any pre-wedding shots though.

Hey Zhuoen, i signed up my package during the wedding show. I must say they do have more perks.
With UOB card i got 12 FOC red wine, 1N stay for ur helpers, poolside solemnisation,...eh tats all i can remember for now..
happy.gif

But when is ur AD? If its hot date, u might not be able to wait till the wedding show.

Good Luck

dun knw when is their nxt wedding show... prob in sep...anyways, hubby says venue is very impt... better settle it first... so m going to be an official mc bride after signing on the dotted line...
 

picogy

Zhuoen, i do agree with ur hubby.
most imptly is u guys must like the place.
as for the perks, its only additional 12 bottles of red wine, which i don't think it is very much difference.

I really do advise u talk to the coordinator.
go thru the perks they offer u and u and hubby have to decide what is really impt to u guys (eg: beer, carpark, etc) and negotiate with them.

So all the best and welcome in advance on becoming a MC Brice

Dear MC BTB

Just had my wedding at MC, thumbs up MC's service and food. The food were fresh and of big portion. Lots of compliments from my guests. Rayston has been a great wedding coordinator to work with and also the MC banquet manager. My banquet ended on time as planned though I had 40+ tables.

The garden theme is nice but I personally preferred the romance theme with red big roses. My guests pucked all my roses home after the banquet. On the whole, I had a memorable wedding banquet at MC esply with the surprise upgrade to the chairman suit on my wedding. The room was huge for the 2 of us
happy.gif


Thumbs up for MC.....the ballroom layout is great esply with the enclosed reception area which is solely for our function.

Hi MalChan

I had my ROM at MC's poolside as well. It has been a wonderful experience as well.....the sound system and surrounding was great!

Zhuoen

Yup I had changed 4 coordinators since I signed a year ago.....I glad the final coordinator who is Rayston did a great job!
happy.gif
He is a new staff in MC but definitely not new (i.e. experienced) as a wedding coordinator

Hey Cuttie,
U metioned u had ur ROM at the poolside of MC. May i ask is it very noisy to have it there cos the pool is only below it. Is it warm to have ur guests sit there? What time you had ur ROM? Do u mind sharing ur ROM pics ?
[email protected]
thanks.

Hey Zhuoen. welcome to the MC family

Hi Picogy

I had my rom at 630pm...it is definitely not quiet but we felt welcoming by the applause of our guests. Your vow will definitely be heard as the mic and sound system are good
happy.gif
Nah, it wasn't warmth, wat's more its just a 15 min event. Mrs Chia was my JP, our guest felt our ROM was awesome
happy.gif


I dun have my rom pictures with me yet. Will share with you when i receive it
happy.gif


Zhuoen, u are in safe hands!

I was glad that Rayston and the banquet manager (sorry didn't get his name that day) followed us through the whole event. They were there to ensure everything run smoothly.

It has been almost 2 weeks since my AD, my guests are still flooding me with compliments on my event
happy.gif
esply the food! So glad to have chosen MC

On the contrary, when i was planning for my poolside solemnisation i was worried about the rain. Luckily it didn't pour till my event was over and done with. Coz u can't use the poolside during wet weather. During my rom, it seems brezzy. Maybe I'm on cloud 9 or wat other factors...

Don't worry about the heat
happy.gif
keke...you will be so delighted on that day tt you won't mind standing there longer with your FH

hi cutiepooh,

thanks for the reassurance... i had did some survey with friends before i signed up and they were full of praises for it!!! i like mc for the fact that they have only one main ballroom and hence my guests wont go to the wrong ballroom!!! and i really like the view from the hotel... =) now, i shall sit back n relax for awhile...
