Pan Pacific Singapore

[sandychoo]

momoko,
oh, i see. I've just sent u a sample of AD schedule spreadsheet. It was from a former PP groom if not wrong. Hope it helps.

Hubby has finished distributed all the cards to his colleagues and frens liao. My PIL will start distributing the cards to their relatives and frens during the period when hubby not around cos can use his car to go round the island lor. My family side almost done liao. My side a bit slower, only posted out the cards to ex-colleagues and uni-frens. Purposely do so cos my side so far have 4 confirmed tables liao. Intend to wait a bit, hopefully by the time I ask them end of this month the most only take up 1~2 tables. If ask them now defintely headcount will hit 2~4 tables. My total tables already exceeded 30 now, must control a bit, dun want the ballroom to look like very squeezy.

Hi Joline & Linah,

Can share the pics and photos and web site with me too?

My email is [email protected]

thank you so much

 

[momoko0]

joline,
thanks. my tables also >30 liao, near 35. *faint* initially wanted to have <30.

 

[sandychoo]

momoko,

forgot to ask u this question. My bro-in-law let the bellboy parked the car for him on the day we had our foodtasting. Any idea if the same service will be available for all our guests who drive? How abt the car-park coupon validation, how is it done? Icy, or any past PP bride here, care to share your experience?

hi kep,
I've sent u the link

 

[sandychoo]

so u already confirmed the tables no. with ur coordinator liao? Me haven't informed PP. Now monitoring how figure goes. Too squeezy no good leh. PPl hard to move around. Also, scared we got less space for march-in aisle. I personally prefer the tables to be lined up in two straight lines, dun link zig-zag arrangement, look a bit messy leh.

Oh yeah, what I noticed is that we can march-in from the second door instead of first one counted from the reception. Icy, how's ur arrangement?

 

[cacphin]

hi joline, linah..
thanks.. saw the links..
very impressive...
btw, do anyone know if we can change coordinators?

 

[kep]

hi joline,
thank for the link
wow very nice and beautiful leh thank ah

both of u look so cute and both of u must be very out going type of person

 

[sandychoo]

hi kep,
thnks.. hee.. me and hubby look like two big doll lor..

hi nihpcac,
If u insist to change coordinator, I believe the proper way should be go thru their director of banquet sales if not wrong. Why not u try to write a nice letter to feedback on the performance of the current coordinator, give him/her a last chance to improve? I believe they'll sure render a better service after received ur valuable feedback.

But if really u've given them chance and did not see anything improved, then better request to change early before you start busy in liasing with them closely for dinner preparation lor..

 

[momoko0]

joline,
me not sure about the car park coupons. Have not discussed with my coordinator on this. btw, i have not confirmed the no. of tables. the number i gave u is my estimates for now. Hopefully don't increase anymore *keep my fingers crossed*... hee

 

[sel]

[kep]

may i know what the min for the ocean ballroom?
izzit 38 tables? coz i might have more than 38
becoz my PIL keep add so angry like inviting the whole estate of friends

 

[sel]

Hi Kep, the min for Ocean is 25 for weekdays and 30 for weekends. I'm taking weekend and my coordinator told me that 38 will be very squeezy. Opps think you have to trim your guest list abit!

 

[kep]

hi sel thx actually i wanted to know the max oh so is 38 is still squeezy ah

i already told my FH but he dont dare to tell his parents that is not enough

he himself havent include yet i think we have to call less people already

if worse come to worse i have to tell them myself dont care give face anot ask them to reduce the guest list dont need to invite ah mao ah kou one

 

[isobellies]

hi kep,
i can relate! my PIL want to invite some neighbours, whom FH don't even know... but what to do? must be good DIL and accept and pray don't lugi

 

[panggou]

hi kep, any possibility to change to pacific ballroom??

starlet, congrats!! all the best!! do share your experience with us!

 

[momoko0]

starlet,
hee.. i'm also having headache over my guest list, very dynamic. Btw, where u going for ur wine tasting? can recommend coz me looking for wines now.

kep,
I'm keeping my tables below 35. 3 tables are for contingency in case a lot of pple turn up on that day. Don't cater for the max.

 

[starlet]

Hi momoko,

Me meeting Parkers wine tomoro for wine tasting..
let u noe the outcome..on thursday..

when is yur AD?

 

[kep]

hi iso i also want to be good DIL haha but wat to do the ballroom really cant squeeze in so many ppl

hi winnie, pacific ballroom is more expensive and somemore my wedding is on sept i think shld be fully book liao

hi momoko i also try to cater for 35 but hai.. i now afraid that it might over 38 ah

 

[kep]

Hi momoko,

last time ying11 recommend this Rucahue Carmenere at $18nett. You can contact Adam Cheng, Mobile: 93885419 for more details.

i also order from Adam the first two case is on cod the rest is on consignment you may like to try =)

 

[linah29]

Hi Gers,

Me had 37 table n only 1 reserved.
The aisle is still beri spacious, the room dun look over crowded too.

I also estimated ard 32 table. In the end add up to 37, beri scared crowded, messy etc.
But it really fine. No problem for photography too!

 

[jasann]

Hi girls,

I also booked Ocean Ballroom! Oh no... 38 will be very squeezy? I already have 36 and the list just keeps getting longer! Once alternative is that if you have a church wedding, you can just invite some guests to the church wedding only, then you can free up some tables. That's what I'm going to do

Hi Linah Lim, your aisle was L-shaped or short one in the centre? I want an L-Shaped walk-in but I dunno if 36 tables can cater for that?

 

[momoko0]

starlet,
let me knoe how's Parkers wine ya... my AD in sept. Would it be too early for wine tasting?

kep,
thanks for the info. Will call them up

 

[sel]

Hi all, I wanted the stage in the middle instead of the end as I feel that those guests from the back will not be able to see us. I guess that's what make the ballroom squeezy? Coz i can see linah's pic that her stage is at the end and the tables are not really tight. So probably if you need to slot in at least 38, may have to place the stage at the end then.

 

[sandychoo]

Hi hi..
I'm back from my medical leave.. wah, one day only, so many postings liao huh..

Sel,
thnks, hee..
yeah yeah, have to pay for additional request for vegetarian meals. We have 10 pax taking normal menu and 2 pax taking vegetarian menu, so just top up the $$ for 2 pax lor. Just keep ur co-ordinator informed and they will arrange nicely for u.

 

[sandychoo]

hi starlet,
a big big congrats on ur wedding, wish u and hubby a proporous and blissful marriage. So how's ur preparation so far? GDL and An Chuang over oredi?

 

[linah29]

Hi jk,
Mine is a long L-shape and march in from the beri first door...
I want this as a special request too!
Else the usually have L-shape march in frm the second door.
Shld be no pro. Cos i got 38 table (1 res) i still got a wide aisle!

Hi Sel,
That beri possible which cos the squeezness.
Last time saw some pics frm x-pp bride &amp; groom, even their march-in also beri tight cos they hav their stage in the center!

Hi Joline,

Weather no good, do drink more water n take care ya.

 

[sandychoo]

[sel]

Hi Joline, were you the one who has contacts for the bubble machine? Can email me the charges?

Btw, for PP, are flower petals allowed?

 

[sandychoo]

Hi Sel,

Rose petals will be provided by PP for one of the march-in if not wrong.

 

[sandychoo]

[sandychoo]

[starlet]

<center><table border=1><tr><td>

GDL
Wedding_prep-original-107691.xls (23.6 k)</td></tr></table></center>

 

[panggou]

Hi Joline, yeap given full payment already. If you buy 3 cases and above, you will get a free bottle of wine customised with your PS photo on it. and a bottle of sparkling wine for your one month anniversary celebration to be consumed in the wine bos.

Sel, Winecellar is at stamford court.

 

[konichiwa11]

Hi Sel,

Aiyoh, I'm on the reverse side leh.. Me Hokkien and hubby teochew wor. So I can also refer to the list u posted har?

 

[momoko0]

joline,
poor thing. Try to monitor your diet coz it may be due to the food that you take. For my HB, he will get migraine if he takes coffee... don't know why...

sel,
petals are allowed. PP does provide for our march-in, but u need to explicitly tell them that u want them.

starlet,
does Parker's has promotion on now? 2 mths back, they have this promo... buy 1 case get 2 bottles free. I think that is a good deal. So which wine u selected and how much? btw, what's their contact?

 

[konichiwa11]

By the way, my AD will be 11/11/06. Can I understand what's the major difference between Ocean Ballroom and Pan Pacific Ballroom?

 

[sandychoo]

Hi Sel,
Wah, so many items need to prepare har...

hi momoko,
ya lor ya lor.. there's one time I always get headache after taking coffee, but now no more allergy to it.. Now I'm more sensitive to strong bright light, loud music, hot weather and spicy food. How ofter ur hubby has migraine headache? Me and hubby both have, at least one month once leh.. doctor said no cure..
