Kodomo is logging in fr HK now.. giving the latest updates LIVE !
Fitting - personally feel that the time frame is abit short. I took ard 3 hrs.. which by the bridal shop standard is already longer (its standard is 2 hrs I think). Although they wun rush u.. but the staff there seem to have back to back appts.. so its pai seh to "overrun" I feel. In Spore, my frens fr other bridal shops choose their gowns through many hours or take different days to do it. Perhaps I should have insisted on a longer fitting period. However overall I was glad that they let me try on many different type of gowns without grumbling... though eventually I was quite confused as to which to choose.
Eventually I sort of ponder on one of the gowns I chose when I stepped back to hotel.. sob sob. Must have a "vain HTB" to help u choose.. otherwise u're left with all the choices urself.. making the final choice within the nick of time !
Photoshooting - overall the experience was a terrific one.. although I have not tried any other photoshooting in Spore. But I can feel that the photo/video crew, MUA and the staff are very sincere n passionate in what they do. Very professional. I don't feel my $$$ wasted honestly. MUA did a fantastic job for me on the hairdos (if u're willing to explore the funky/kuang zhang styles). Not sure if its the same MUA Silin had. I chose more kuang zhang styles.. as I know that in Spore, its kinda impossible to do it.. as not many can accept. Guess Im like Silin, exploring the "unsual styles"... since we're in HK.. why not blend into the HK style right.. And when we're back in Spore, blend back into Spore style =P
PG and his assistant work like perfectionists..dun feel like they are doing slipshot works (leaving some benefit of doubt as I have not seen the photo works). Personally Im a near perfectionist.. so if they are concerned on the small details before every shoot they take, they should be more or less perfectionists too ! TKQ for all their patience to me and HTB.. gave us much guidance on how to take photos.. hopefully our "usual photos" in future will improve further ! The best is no attitude shown.. no black faces... they remain carefree and happy.. making us happy at the same time !
Gowns - many many for you to try on... dun think u would face problems in choosing the one u like. I think at the end of the day, u would more likely be confused on wht to choose.. I dun think they have a THEME of gowns - unlike some bridal shops... There is always a gd and bad side of this point.
Studio - really very grand... at least more grand than those I've seen in Spore so far, but not sure if its the most grand in HK though. The whole setup is more like a TV studio.. than a bridal studio. Quite a fun experience. Now like Silin, I kinda worry the variety of gowns in Spore MDW. They may not have enough gowns available for us to choose in 2009 - we were spoilt for choices in HK !!!
Yacht - many couples would be onboard for the PS at the yacht - looks very crowded to me. But not to worry, cos couples would be at different places at different timings. Dun think u will be blocked. But of cos dun expect urself to travel romantically on the yacht privately. Its more of the noisy kind. The yacht is like a prop in the open sea.. tsk tsk. Who cares, as long the photos taken eventually dun look crowded right..?
Alright.. enough of marketing for them... So far, more +ve than -ve points for me. Just abit regretted on one of the gowns I chose.. but all brides should look pretty in almost everything.. so I shall live on with it and move on (",)
