hi,
does anyone knows normally how many months before our wedding day we are supposed to collect the wedding cards? Is the coordinator supposed to call us or we are supposed to follow up with them?
 
Hi Poupie,

It's normally 2 or 3 mths s u need to pick the cards n sent for printing. U may have to wait a few more days for the shipment of the cards if happen they do not have stock of the one u choose. The wedding planner that Sheraton provided are all there. Check it out. Very useful.

I am quite lucky, Roger, who is my co-ordinator, calls me to remind me for the wedding cards as well as the food tasting.
 
Hi Mr Bean,

I had my wedding on 28/29 Sep 03 oready. Therefore, I can kind of share some thots over here.

When is yours?
 
hi jan,
thanks for the feedback. not sure who is my coordinator now due to change of hands but will be following up with them in Dec03.

how is your wedding then?
 
Hi Poupie n Bean,
Well, no regrets of choosing ST! My co-cordinator has helped me a lot throughout the whole planning. The food is superb! Received positive comments on food as well as the set-up of the ballroom. A lot of my guests like the lobster noodles and the mango sago. Some even asked for more! Do tell the co-ordinator what exactly you want for your wedding. Overall...PERFECT!!!
 
hi jan,
that's so great to hear! hope my wedding can be "PERFECT" too...

have not gone for my food tasting yet, but will keep in mine of the lobster noodle.
 
Hi jan,

That's great! May I know which selection did u choose for the fish? By the way, any problem on the wine or beer consumption? Did u use the normal march-in or the L-shape? How was the sound system? Did u show any montage on the screen?

Soorie to ask so many questions....

Hi Bean,
Not a prblm. Wld luv to help. I will try to scan some pics of mine n send it to u.
(1) I chose the traditional fish, "Garoupa"
(2) Beer is free flow, there4 no issue. As for wine, I finished 36 bottles for 26 tables which only 12 tables of guest asked for wine. Request the wine to be served in a bottle. That's where u can control the wine. I bot all my wines from Demsey Road, not fm the htl.
(3) It is the normal march-in. Lucky! Mu hubby is so nervous. Tha's why a short march is gd enough.
(4) On the nite, u will be too happy or busy to even notice the sound system. I checked with friends, they said "ok". U can test the system before the dinner or the arrival of your make-up artist, like abt 4pm. Write all the march-in songs correctly and the number. Then slip into the cover of the CDs n tell the operations manager, the songs for (i) pre-cocktail (ii) 1st march-in (iii) 2nd march-in (iv) champagne pouring (v) music that plyed throughout dinner
(5) Nope, too many pple r doing it, datz why I dropped it. Also, I skip that fancy thing for the 1st dish too.
 
Hi Bean n Koko,
My pictures for the wedding will be ready early next week. Still interested? If yes, drop me a email.
Cheers

2 days before your AD! heehee...
So far, I've got my PS/BS booked, ST booked, AD photography/videography have yet to sign with the shortlisted one. I guess what worries me now is whether if I can get what I want for my OTR Wedding gown.. sob
 
Hey ladies,
The photographer who took my studio photos are pretty gd. If u gals r interested, I can give u his contact. But of cos, check out my studio pics which will only be ready the week of 15 first before u make a decision. If not, give him a call and have him to show u his portfolio. He is really good!

kokopooh

I signed up with Wedding News because of Dean. But I can always change it to just his photography package only.. We'll see how it goes..
Yeah... who knows we might see each other!
happy.gif
Apparently, in Wedding 2004 thread, its just the 2 of us in the Sept brides.. guess because the lunar 8th mth is kinda short in Sept...

Cheers
 
Hi Ladies,
No prblm! Shall drop u gals a email next week.

Hi Diamond,
I hv 2 photographers. 1 for the studio/outdoor and 1 for the AD. If interested after checking my pics, drop me a email n I can pass u the contacts.
 
Hello Poupie,
Yup you were right i usee Alan Dai for my photographer he is really good and he's fantastic cause he really make all my guests and friends and relatives laugh when he capture their pictures it's like candid camera! so in a way i find it's unique rather than jus serious faces pictures and he took every shots that i find it meaningful as my wedding memory and i 've got compliments from my friends and my cousins too so i was glad not only my wedding dinner turns out great but the rest as well. He's quite fully booked so you need to book him earlier to avoid disappointment.
 
Hi Mr Bean,
What i meant of Personlised Service was the waiters n waitresses would serve each table by scopping each dish to 12 plates and the remaining would be placed in the centre for the guest to help themselves w the second round and the service was good cause the waiter/ress would always give their smile and politeness throughout the whole dinner so your guests and friends would also compliments about the service to you after the dinner.
 
Mr Bean,
This is my menu for my weekend dinner
1)Deluxe Traditional Hors d'Oeuvre
2)Shark's Fin Soup 'Capital Style'
3)X.O Prawns w Walnut, Celery,n
capscium in x.o sauce n soft shell crab
(everybody loves this dish cause soft
shell crab is hardly seen at wedding
dinner)
4)Slice Abalone w Abalone mushroom w
vegetables i change to spinach for this
dish
5)Steamed Red Garoupa "Hong Kong
Style" ( chinese ppl has this
sayin "you to you wei" head n
tail)this fish is really big n looks
exclusive n yum yum i have got no
complains at all from friends n
relatives everybody says it was
delicious another recommendation is the
canadian cod fish ...heard lt's
delicious too
6)Li Bai's herbal emperor chicken (lots
of comliments of this dish too cause
it does not taste like ordinary herbal
chicken n it's the hotel award wining
resturant name dish)(highly
recommend!)
7)Stewed Hong kong vegetables w Dried
Scallops
8)Stewed Ee-Fu noodles w boston
lobster (was also yum yum w lobster
meat on top it's also different caused
usually other dinner is only
fried w mushroom n chives but this is

9)Red bean Paste w Glutinous Rice
balls w black sesame filling (all my
guests love the dessert until there
were no leftover everyone enjoyed
the last dish suprisingly after so

delicious n these compliments
really make us bride n groom includin
our parents happy. Mr Bean n all the
ST brides n groom to be, hope my infor
wil help you in your
planning,Cheers!
 
hi amy,
thanks for sharing your menu. i will probably be going for my food tasting in early Jan or Feb.
will take your menu as reference...

by the way, when did you start choosing your cards and which printer you go for?
 
Thanks Amy for sharing the menu. Mine menu would be very similar to yours. So now I can rest assure that it's gonna be good. I like the way they serve the guest individually, good for lazy people like me.

Errr..in case u dunno me, I'm fairymoss, also a Sheraton bride, tying the knot in June 04.

Amy, did u choose your own songs or use the hotel ones? If so, can tell us what songs the hotel provides?
 
Hi!

I read about the personalised service.

My colleague was complaining about this. His was a table of very close frens and he did tell the waitress not to serve individually but still the waitress continue to serve every single dish by scooping and all that. Depends on how you see it as I feel if you are sitting with a table of close frens or relatives, it is better not to scoop for everybody if they request for it.

I guess they have to be flexible.
 
Hi,

I'm back again! My opinion is go for personalised service but of cos, if the guest requested not to be served individually. All my guest are being served individually n they love it.

Tried the dessert "mango sago"...YUMMY YUMMY!!!

Hi Ralphine, Kokopooh, Seabreeze, Poupie n Diamond,

Finally, my pics r uploaded. Do note that some r not perfectly cropped. Give me your comments!

Check yr mail!
 
Hi jan,

Hi Ralphine,
There are only 2 themes but mine was not the burgundy theme. Let me check n revert.

Hi Poupie,
