hi Evisu,
try getting corkage waiver, additional cards and complimentary parking. I think if sign up during the wedding fair, they will throw in extra stay for couple and free room for your co-oridinators on the day itself. for the ballroom, usually need min 40 tables. maybe u can bargain on reducing the min tables to 35 or 38 so that u have some buffer

Hi all
Can anyone send me the fotos of the ballroom, reception area etc via [email protected]?
We are planning to hold a weekend dinner, most probably ard 30 tables. I heard the minimum tables is 40. Do u think they will offer us any package for 30 tables?
Our main consideration is whether the food is nice and whether the portion is enough for all. Would appreciate comments on this. Thank you in advance ^_^

Hi, i had my wedding here Jan last year and I didn't lose any $$... in fact, i even made some and covered for my bridal package. I had 52 tables on a Sun too and i remember it was raining the whole day and i was worried that guests will not turn up last min. Anyway, it turn out to be a great success, great food, great service and till now, my mum's friends still remember the event. I think they do offer 1 barrel of beer but no wine. What I did was to exchange the wedding favors and cards for another barrel of beer as I did my own cards and bought my favors from bkk instead.
However that was a year ago so not sure if the service has dropped but when I went back for my complimentary 1st year anniversary stay at RTC earlier this year, the service was still as good then. If buy the package during the fair, you will usually get an extra night stay. When I signed the contract, I only gave a guarantee of 30 tables and hence I did not get the 10% disc given during the fair but when my tables shot up to 50, my coordinator then gave me the 10% disc per table as agreed then and i got to use the rolls royce on the AD itself as my wedding car. But make sure all these are written black and white in the contract.

oic.. Daphne then i think u r quite lucky. my collegue's fren not so lucky. perharps her friend's and relative's angbao are quite small..
hmm 12k is really alot wor
i also rmb she mention that fod tasting must give angbao to the chef. is it true? if nobody tells me, i also dunno its a must to give angbao for chef. i think she say must give $88.

elyn, i don't remember giving any AP to the chef leh.... only tell chef what changes i want niah.... i only gave AP to my coordinator that's all....
i think it doesn't matter where you hold the wedding.... it's just pure luck whether you make or lose... but as long as you enjoy the whole process, then it shouldn't matter.

Hi everyone, this is my first posting here.
Have gone to RTC and met up with Guek Peng. Nice place but don't really have the hotel feel if you are looking for those feel la. Hit a certain number of tables and they let you have a rolls royce for AD.. definitely something different from the hotels that people always attend for wedding dinners (can be quite boring these days i feel..)
The suites i heard are very nice too... Din have chance to take a look cos that day was fully booked. However, they have a wedding fair coming up in sept/nov (sorry details with hubby) and will open up the suites for viewing (straits suite). http://www.rafflestownclub.com.sg
RTC has the date i need but actually was also considering Novotel Clarke Quay but they are so popular!
The dates left are different from my preferred dates. Looking to hold it in Sunday June 08 but they only have Fridays left. Anyone has experience of having the day ceremony separate from the banquet itself?
I have heard from frens tt RTC dinners are very good though, some even say it is one of the best wedding dinners they have had.

hi kelvin, to me i think it's quite accessible.. central location, no erp (unless govt decides to add additional gantries there), near exits of E'way and spared of jams unlike suntec area when they have some mega exhibition.

Hi all, I'm also having my ROM there.
My coordinator is Bridget.
I just went to view the private lounge yesterday, and it looks kinda small. But it's really cosy with sofas at the sides. I am considering the romance tea package and inviting about 35-40 guests.. I asked her about the decor, she said fresh flowers will be used but i am afraid they won't turn up way i want.
I also wanted to top up for their suite so I can get my MUA to do my makeup there before the event starts... it costs $180.. do u think it's worth it? By the way, can anyone recommend what's nice on their buffet menu?

Feedback from my guests 1. service is great!They paid attention to details and very service oriented, comparable, if not, better than in hotels! 2. Nice food! I will recommend the satay, pandan chicken, breaded prawns (very yummy i heard n i tried hahaha ) 3. nice decor u r most welcome to view my photos n video at http://fengnshan.multiply.com/ for a better idea of the actual set up.
The room is very nicely decorated too! Overall, we were very satisfied with everything We had a great time. In fact, we will be holding our wedding dinner there on 11th Nov.

Hi ladies..its been a long time since I was here. I had my wedding dinner at RTC in July 05 and now am helping a friend to check up some stuff in this forum. From the looks of the RTC packages offered, they look very much like what I had 2 years back.
Anyway for those taking the Rolls Royce..it was really a wonderful experience...everyone on the road would be staring at you and your rolls royce
btw, I had the driver from RTC included as well..very professional.
For food, I had no complaints, only compliments. Reception area was big enough to accomodate all the guests. They even had had a string quartet (or was it a Trio) providing live entertainment during the reception which I did not expect. I heard they were visiting entertainers. (But note that this was not included in the contract and was probably my good fortune that they were here)
As for minimum no. of tables, they only have one ballroom and it can accomodate 50-60 tables (I had 55). So this is the reason why they need to maximize the space with min 40 tables. Even then, the ballroom was cozy yet spacious, and without pillars. Just that the ceiling is not a high as many hotels.
Decor was ok, nothing very fantastic but good enough as with 5 star hotels. Fresh flowers, backdrops, chair sashes for all. Depends on the theme you choose.
What I loved best was the bridal suite. Suite was decorated with balloons and the suite comes with a jacuzzi. Even on the anniversary night stay, we had a similar room and balloons. So just some thoughts from an old bride.
