puroland> the spoon part is nt unforeseen lei, its fr the start ald no spoons. My hb was the brother so he was there even b4 the start of the buffet dinner. Its really very bad impression of the place n they nvr distribute the favours. They only bring out the next day after the dinner is over n the couple was so pissed. But wat to do, wedding ald over, so the coordinator gave the couple another nite stay to apologise for the blunder.
missylan> gave me a shocked tot y HR called, PR sounds more normal.If can break even I m happy ald, anyway if wanna make $ fr wedding shld jus have it at restuarant with very cheap menu that cost abt $350 to $500 per table.
I chose OCC cos of the big space n the ambience, price is cheaper than hotels, so ended up with them
tingie> seriously, whereever u sign up, they can give promises (which venue wouldn't,right?) cos no sales person wld tell u dun sign up cos we no gd. But I have a few venues who ask me to reconsider cos the number of tables we need ald reach their max, so its very risky. But in terms of food wise etc, they wont go n tell u we are no gd, dun take us one lo. As half a sales person myself, even if the prdt really is nt as fantastic as wat it seems, we will try not to go into the topic of the weakness as we are not suppose to scare off customers. As consumers ourselves we shld also do our own groundwork before commiting. Honestly, OCC does not have lack of business an is quite rigid, but ultimately we still choose them cos they fit our budget n our capacity. Ask urself wat is ur priority? Location? If so Safra also has a pillarless ballroom in Yishun, Gim Tin also has a restuarant in Yishun central. Gim Tin is popular and famous for their food. But my parents experience at the Yishun one sux, the couple's menu had the best ingredients, abalone, bird nest n suckling pig but the sharks fin so watery, bird nest is majiam like agar agar....
Ribena> I tink as the payer ourselves we need to follow up closely with the coordinator etc so that they understand our expectations clearly. Those unexpected things really cant be helped I must say, really unlucky I shld say.
