Hi cutiebear,
What did ur FH say abt postponing the wedding. He must be very sad if u put work in priority. Check with your company whether can u take a week leave for ur wedding. Im sure they will allow it, in this way, u will not miss the opportunity to be involved in the big project and yet not be "Blacklisted"
Work & Love must be balanced.

Hi blurbrainne,
I'm taking Pacific Ballroom too. somehow the PB has better lightning effects lor, and it's bigger too i suppose. it can hold up to 60 tables, whereas OB can hold up to 30+ tables.
after you signed contract with PP, can slowly start on other preps liao (eg, BS). when the date draws nearer, PP coord will call you (hopefully). Else you just keep contract lor. Can use the website below as a general guide lor

Hi crystalbelle,
If u find it too simple, you can choose the flowers deco design on the AD but have to pay extra $ or engage florist help.
I will make some changes to the flowers use. I like it simple and elegance. Don't want it to be too complicated.
Hi PPgroom,
I thot Ocean room max sitting capacity can go up to 48 tables if I dont recall wrongly?
Pacific room ceiling is higher, room bigger can accomated up to 68 tables (saw an actual wedding at PB), can have different color lighting effect. With the higher ceiling, they can have more selection of theme, even combination of garden & candle theme. Very nice But Price much Steeper.
Johnny told us that if we do not have many tables, select OB better as do not have to share the ballroom with others such as wedding or functions. We can take up the whole level 2, open all 5 ballrooms, more personal

Hi Christine,
think OB can only go up to 38 tables... it'll be quite cramped to have 38 tables already.
Christabelle,
recall my coordinator once saying that the 3 themes for PB is not that suitable for OB due to differences in room size and ceiling ht... but u can always check wif them to see if you can work something out...

Hi redshear,
feroy's right. let's keep it amongst the brides and grooms here. but PP do indeed say that ultimately all our guests will have 100% complimentary parking. the 20% is due to some office politics...

Feroy and PPgroom,
thanks ...... I'll shzzzzz. Perhaps, that's the reason why my coordinator hesitates to accede to my request. Really hope it turns out that way!
Hi blurbrainne,
I did try to convert day to night one, but was told shld have no prob. but subjected to availability. However, extend till 11pm is certainly ok.

Hi, brambles.
I dun think they will mind extending to a night stay. Why not give a call to you coordinator and ask again.
Hi, garfield.
Wow, convenient to say who is your coordinator huh? I thought it is impossible to exchange for a night stay at a suite, unless perhaps, if you have many tables. But yours at OB right?

hihi....
Well I heard that its possible to exchange for 1 over night stay..But am not sure how to go about to do so. I have tried but only get extend to 11pm too...i was given a deluxe room for my coordinators. is it a norm package?..,..
Thanks PPgroom, I will certainly ask nicely. I agree with you.... besides its better to be on good terms.... ...
As for the 100% carpark ... well i think that is possible too.
The basic are free flow of soft drinks, beer, mixers and Chinese tea, food tasting, waiver of corkage, seat covers, guest poster, LCD projector, anniversary stay, etc right? is that all we can bargain?
Has anyone try out the food yet? Any recommendation? Understand we can request for change of dishes at no additional cost provided we inform them prior to the food tasting, is that so?
have a friend that held her wedding there last year end at the Pacific Ballroom ... the feedback the food not so good and the waitress & waiter really change dish like bullet train ...hehhehe this all hearsay from my friends.... but I was really attracted to their offer. So very tempted to sign up. Particularly the theme they offer at the pacific ballroom. haiz headache!
Thanks everyone for your advise!

Hi blurbrainne,
'The basic are free flow of soft drinks, beer, mixers and Chinese tea, food tasting, waiver of corkage, seat covers, guest poster, LCD projector, anniversary stay, etc right? is that all we can bargain?' ????? how come you bargain for soft drinks, chinese tea etc???? bargain for corkage waiver, projector still ok.
Pls note that you can only change the way the dish is cooked, i.e. steamed prawn change to fried prawn, no charge. if you wanna change a dish totally, then there'll definitely be charges one...
the food not so good meh? so far the feedback here is ok leh... as for 'fast' water/waitress, maybe can ask coord to slow them down lor cos afterall PP only have 8 dishes, if everything too fast then where got time to take photos etc??

Feel so disappointed & a bit heart pain for give up tis song, no choice my FH don listen to chinese song.

Hi PPgroom
Mine on the 14th Dec 2004. Tot if yrs earlier..like to ask u how's the food tasting..esp the chicken with smoked jasmine..

Hi Blueblue, we just had our food tasting last week. The chicken with smoked jasmine is delicious. My parents and future in-laws love it. Let's hope they maintain the same standard on our actual day.
Now I'm deliberating over the VIP table. Would you all opt for 1 BIG VIP table instead of 2 normal size VIP tables? Pan Pac has tables big enough to accommodate both sides. Looking at the recent dinners I've attended, it appears that the trend is moving towards having just 1 VIP table so both families can be seated together. It has become more acceptable. But my future in-laws is not buying that idea leh... haiz...

Hi blim
Glad to hear tat the chicken with smoked jasmine is delicious. Actually I hv some doubts abt the taste when i first hear of tis dish..is perch fish the same as cod fish? Do u intend to change the dessert?
How many can 1 VIP table takes? I luv the idea too but not sure also whether my FIL will like it. I am also afraid they will want to change the perch fish to a whole fish.

Hi blim,

Hi irenes,
dun think can request to change the PB lighting every half an hour leh... it'd be too distracting for one reason yeah?
Hi itchi scrati,
yeah, i think gotta bring your own laptop for the montage presentation... hmmm... wonder if all of us can gang up and ask for PP to provide as well? WAHAHAAHAHA!!!!
