[clarissa]

Kervin> congrats on securing ur wedding date! now the main thing is done, can concentrate on other wedding preps...

Mascherano> u r most welcome... =) i had 20tables that day... the stage got bigger or smaller one meh? my coordinator told me if we dun have too many tables, we can have another projector near the stage... so that is what we did. 1 at the back of the ballroom, 1 at the left side of the stage... so that all the guests can see the video montage etc.

 

[shingirl]

hi... congrates to you all!!

i was at the fair too.... but i went off after eating....

just to check with you guys.... is the actual ballroom the room when we are seated on sunday?

oso i pity the malay booth =P. dun think i see any malay couples. but the malay deco is really really nice.... haha

 

[arieswolfy]

hi visha,

yar, that is the straits ballroom (the place where the dinner/lunch will be held)

yar.. i see the malay booth vv nicely set up and cosy feeling.

 

[blurrz]

hi all! i am considering to hold my AD at rendevouz... soo far, is everything good? the coordinator whom handled me was very good! however, i still have some doubts as its not very well known compared to other hotels... thus still a bit hesitant...

 

[kv24]

aries.. i have added u in msn..

other HR brides.. do add me in your msn too:

[email protected]

 

[kv24]

another reason my bf likes HR (other then it can allows for smaller table qty + reasonabl price) is cos it is not tat "well known "compared to other hotels in holding of weddings..since it can only hold 1 weddin at one time.. it also cant have as much weddin g as compared to others.. but i believe they shd have reasonable experience ba.. it hink planning weddding or even any other event also sure have some cock up on the actual day.. just take a look out based on past forumer's feedbacks n tell it to the coordinators to make sure they don make mistake if possible..
my bf who used to be a army regular for 13 yrs have been invited to 100++ of weddings and he never got a fren tat got married in HR..so it will be a fresh idea to us.. and at least the lobby, stair cases is nice .. good for pic taking..some big hotels also don have de.. the cirular inner architech is also very nice..v european feel..

Hi all,

Missed goin to the wedding fair as was overseas, had my engagement do at HR and so far was happy with the service, have prebooked to do banquet there too.

Was wondering if anyone took photos during the fair that they can share? Wanted to see the malay booth set up too coz we will be needing it! :s

 

[skyvenus]

anyone booked ur wedding dinner on 6th Dec 09?

 

[wanderfool]

Will share my experience once my AD is over.
Not sure how is their service....intially requested to have 11 seats for 2 table on sat evening but relatives inform us on sunday morning that they won't be able to attend...but the catering manager inform us changes are not allow...so have to pay 2 pax head count...chay

 

[wanderfool]

everything went quite smoothly except that the banquet manager keep pressure me to start the dinner at 8:30pm...dunno is it they want to go home on time. Luckily 90% of my guests turned up on time by 8:20pm...everything finished at 10:50pm included clearing all cultery & beer mug

 

[kv24]

Mascherano.. your AD is only for 11 person?? or you mean ROM?? so when is it de?? do you mean denny aw keep pressuring you to take early? so service wise.. corrdinator, food, pa system etc all ok? any complaints? for your case how many botttle of red/white wine u open that day??

 

[xiangxiangprincess]

mascherano - think you have mistaken the banquet manager. the reason for starting the dinner at 8.30pm is not really cos they wanna go home on time, but more for thoughts for those guests who came early and also for the wedding couple. if dinner starts late, it will also look bad on the couple since guests have to wait with hungry stomach and leaving early. anyway, i guess most wedding dinner also starts around 8.30pm

kervin - the banquet manager is not the sales person. sharon was my coordinator throughout the preparation for wedding from hotel side and thomas was the banquet manager on the night, together with david and rajan

 

[wanderfool]

No, it was 2 tables with 11 seating.
No complaint for service and food for the price i paid. Order 4 cartons but only consumed 2 cartons & 4 bottle of hard liquor. Balance keep to entertain guests for the CNY....haha

Overall, i would give a rating of 7.5/10.
Both Sharon & Eileen are quite accomdating.

Hi all,

Would like to know how is the food at HR? I'm thinking of holding solemnization there in June this yr, but heard bad reviews.

 

[wishuponastar]

recently went for a friend's wedding, the food was kind of starchy.. the service wasn't too good..
they took really long to serve you drinks and all..

Probably you could raise these up when booking..

[piger]

[mymelody999]

Hi eelynn,
ya lor, so quiet these days. I saw your post in the other thread..u holding ur wedding at HR too?

 

[lynn14_00_00]

Hello, I am also looking thru this forum b4 I do a booking for my banquet in 2010 Dec.Does anyone have anything to share?Just had a bad experience for my ROM..really don't hope history will repeat itself..

 

[piger]

hihi melody... mine is on 3rd Jan 2010....

Hihi Lynn... bad experience??? which hotel???

 

[jaymy]

I just had my food tasting over the weekend. All the dishes are very nice, especially the smoke duck which is a very special dish which I have never tasted in a wedding banquet before.

 

[kv24]

Jaymy... how the food tasting.. we planning our food tasting this month too.. btw..is dessert included in the food tasting?? can you give me your personal opinions abt each dishes u tried?? Did you try the rice or noodle?? hwo their portion and service..did they print out the food menu for tat day?? you got try their house wine ??

 

[mymelody999]

Hi Eelynn, mine on 6 Dec 09. so in Oct will be going to HR for my food tasting. Is Danny ur co-ordinator too?

Hi Lynn, till now I think service from HR is still not bad. but my first choice back then was Holiday Inn Parkview near somerset mrt. (but too bad it is already taken for the date that we wanted). The price is around the same as HR but their crystal ballroom is really nice and grand and can hold up to 40. HR can only hold up to 24. Both of them has high ceiling ballroom which is a must for me.

btw, just read from the s'pore bride website that Holiday Inn is having their wedding show on 16 Aug. Maybe you want to go down to take a look at both hotel to compare.

 

[jaymy]

Yes dessert is included and we hv chosen yam paste which is very nice. The rice is wrapped in lotus leaf, very nice too. I like the shark fin soup too. Portion is big, we have 11 people to share the 10 persons share. Service is good too, as the waiter will show and explain each dishes before serving. Yes there is a food menu printed on the table. We didn't try the house wine.

 

[kv24]

great.. good to hear that.. now i am lookin forward to yum yum food..hehe... shall order the rice instead of noodle (too normal and no interest to most ppl nowadays) maybe take the yam paste too..the other is sooooooooo common..i wonder can have 3rd choice anot.. happy to hear they got provide menu n good service w some explanation..

 

[kv24]

jaymy..so whenis your wedding?

 

[piger]

Melody: heehee... nope... my co-ordinator is Eileen... she says she will contact me in Oct for food tasting too... and also the invitation card printings... have you confirmed the theme?? using the 2009 theme or the new 2010 theme???

Lynn: yes... agreed with melody.. the ballroom is small but it's cosy... htb and me loves the ambiance... very very nice.... =)
