Ganesan wasn't even there!! there's a wedding dinner later too... when was there we thought there wasn't any showcase... then ask the recept they also dunno.. until they contacted the banquet manager for that day's event.. we saw the themes and the wedding invites... themes - golden and purple.. sash can change...

 

[daffier]

The wedding show is at beach road so kitchener dun have much tgs..

so u like e red n beige invites n gold n purple theme?

 

[junel]

hmm... feel that the beige invite very simple... so most probably go for red. me go for gold as my evening gown is purple...

 

[jasjo]

can take both??
since its free...hahaha

the red ones, for relatives,
and the beige ones, for collegues and friends..

i like invitation card in white/beige, but ours beige, really very plain..

 

[daffier]

me also took all red invites..

yeah e gold table cloth for general tables is nice.. we also took that..

can take both but limit to 80% of ur tables lor..
so stil add together is 200 for 25 tables..

 

[junel]

Jass i was thinking of taking both as well but my hb say very ma fan cos have to separate who gets the red and who get the beige.. hai...

in the end i think i still take all red ba..

 

[daffier]

yeah.. red is nicer too!

 

[junel]

ya beige a bit too plain le...

 

[jasjo]
