Hi gals,
Novotel has been one of my consideration, as the setups look elegant and location is accessible. However the no. of tables that we want is abt 25-27 can't fit into cinnamon (max 24) or phoenix room (min 30), so no choice we have to forgone NCQ.
Quite happy to know all of u, feel that everyone here is friendly and helpful. Hope all of you have gd time in preparing your wedding. Rest well and be a happy and mei mei (pretty) brides

Hi Vanilla.
Very RED card you have got there... hehe!! I like the picture.
For food tasting, it is stated only for weekdays. But I told Huiling last time that my family members are all working and my brother is in the army and could only come out during weekend, so could I have it during weekend. She say to let her know and she will try to see if it's possible to do the food tasting on weekend. So maybe you could check with her too.

Hi Gals
Anyone of you signed up with NCQ during last Sept 06 wedding show? Cos I wanted to arrange for food tasting, and was told to give them the list of the 8 dishes, but I lost the menu which was given to me during the wedding show. Anybody can help please? Thanks a million!

hey the card not bad, simple and cute.
Anyone have any idea, for the food tasting on weekday, can it be at night?
My AD is on 3rd nov, anyone can advise, is it time for me to start viewing those card and printing?
By the way, do i have to contact Jamie or just straight away contact Javy?

Hi Belle
I have sent them (NCQ) an email yesterday, and was told that food-tasting can only be arrange during weekdays. Lunch or dinner is fine.
Normally viewing & printing of cards is 3 months b4 ur AD. So you may wanna do it in Aug. I'm sure ur coordinator will email you a checklist soon. I've got mine in early June.

Hi Belle & Vanilla,
Your Coordinator will provide you with the checklist, however to view n print the cards, you will need to go down personally to Javy to have it done @ your own timing .. Coordinators will not help to "monitor" if u follow the checklist.
Just some info on the cards, you can choose the cute pic (in their default list) to be printed in the inserts or pay extra $ to have your wedding photo inserted.(but only 1 colour... check with Jasvy for further details, if interested).
For me i did my own version of at no extra cost.....to be printed on the insert.

Hi Hi,
I also received the checklist from Jamie in early June. Think she sent to me coz I emailed to ask her.
Though my banquet is on 23 nov, I am planning to approach Jasvy within the next 2 weeks. Don't wanna cramp everything during the final 3 mths.
I roughly counted the no. of cards that I need. About 280 which exceeds what NCQ is giving me for free. Then I need to print about 300 inserts. Anyone know how much to pay for each extra card?
Still need to buy ribbon ah.... -_-
Any of you superstitious? Some pple say that don't do any wedding preparation during the lunar 7th mth.

hi caitou,
they'll ask you how many tables you'll be having now instead of the stated no. in the contract. for eg, stated is 30 tables (2 reseves) but when you go jasvy, they'll ask you estimated how many tables on AD. think cards should be enuf. the inserts i printed 300 for $120. or you can print directly on the card, depend on your preference.
my card same as vanila.

Hi caitou
Agree with paperdebris. Jasvy will calculate the no. of invites you'll need according to percentage of attendance agreed between yourself & NCQ.
I paid $150 for 300 inserts, cos I've changed the normal string to ribbon instead.
For me, 300 invites is more than enough.

Bruce Almighty's bride,
Can check with you what u mean by "did my own version of at no extra cost.....to be printed on the insert".
You mean the card design?
Hey Vanilla & paperdebris,
Thanks alot for the advice. Think i better start calling them.
By the way, i am abit confused of how many card to print as my confirmed table is 30 + 2 reserve but i might have 36 tables. So how? i only have 70% confirmed attendence card.
Any idea, around 36 tables got to print how many cards?

I just called up Jasvy and have arranged to go down on next Saturday morning.
Belle, I guess you can share your situation with Jasvy. They should be able to advise bah.
In my contract with NCQ, there is no confirmed tables but it was stated minimum 30 tables + 2 reserve. I also have the same situation as you. So guess I just need to tell Jasvy that I might be having 34 tables + 2 reserve.

hi hi...
caitou, maybe jus let them know you got 36 tables, then they'll give you 70% of 360 ppl you are going to invite.
my contract same as you, but at jawsvy we recalculate how many tables (ppl) we are inviting and they give according to the percentage.

hi caitou,
think so. we counted in all the ppl we inviting, and it comes up to 36 tables. they'll take the percentage of 36 tables lor.
then later they'll claim from NCQ.
we have 2 designs, the one same as vanilla and another one for parents.

I am gng to sign my contract with NCQ this week. At first, i was quite worry abt the food too. As i realise not many ppl have been there fore wedding dinner before. Then i realise the food is done by Dragon Phonenix restaurant. I think your parent would have heard of them.

Hi Belle,
If you have went to Jasvy before then you will be able to notice those default prints- is drawn out from previous couples or from internets.. using thick marker (outline),, like when those human we use to draw when we were young -1 O, with 2 Chinese "Ren" below-for hands and legs)
So My Bro told me to use transparency to draw out the outline of one of our wedding shot (which the face features can be clearly shown)then used copier machine to print out, shrinked it...then scanned, cut and paste as picture format for Jasvy to print onto our inserts.
Cos if u opted the photo, though they are able to print it onto your insert only in 1 colour.. meaning
if you opt for Gold wordings, it will be "gold fading color"-however I find it look more to copper brown than "gold".
if you opt for Black.. then is black and greyish. So I opted to draw it myself, and can also be used for the Ang Pow which Jasvy's promoted during our visit there.
if you need sample, i can send it to you.
Not those cute cute pic which, you expect friends to woo ah "so cute, so cute", but more of Ownership...

Hi Belle
Mine oso confirm 70% - around 30 + 2. So u should have a rough idea of how many tables you have before u went down to Jasvy. Reason being: Jasvy will bill NCQ for the invites and verify wif Jamie ur number/percentage of tables. So let's say if you told Jasvy you'll have 36 tables, and you may end up having 32 tables only, and NCQ will actually charged you for the extra invites for the additional 4 tables. Initially, I was as confused as u, so Jasvy actually advised us to confirm the no. of tables we will have, to avoid any confusion.
So it's better to tell Jamie the no. of tables you'll be having, before heading down to Jasvy.
PS: Usually, Jasvy will give you extras, they wun calculate 'zhun zhun' the no. of invites you'll be getting. So will give you some buffer.

Hi stef
Ya they have white/cream col for this particular invite too. So some couples actually opt for 50 - 50 diff col (but same design) for the invite. Meaning, 50% red for relatives, 50% white for friends. Cos old ppl they are more 'pantang', so you may wanna opt for two cols. The normal string is $0.10 each, and ribbon is $0.80 each. Strings, ribbons and inserts are additional cost, which is not included in your contract wif NCQ.

Hi Eemmoo,
No Need, you choose the card and insert @ Jasvy's premise.
Tip: you can choose more than 1 card colour...
I chose 200 of Auspicious Red-(The Elders' Fav color) another 200 -Lilac (more modern), but insert only 1 choice. so if u choose more than 1 card design, the inserts must fix both cards.
Hi Belle,
Will be sending the sample to you shortly.
Do remember to read your card's wording closely before going ahead to print, Jasvy will send the insert to you via email to vett thru, pass around to your parents, parent in law on their name etc, cos once u say go ahead, there's is no turning back.
( i have to go thru 4 times before everything look correct)
