Hello Gals,

I am back!! Thank you for all your blessings.

It was a really hectic week for me. I had hangover since last Saturday and have not recovered fully and also, I was staying at my new house without Internet access, so tat's why no action these days.

It is a beautiful wedding. Really...gals...u dun have to worry about holding your wedding at Sheraton. I have nothing but compliments for Roger and the whole team. SHeraton was really accomodating and I intend to write a letter to compliment the staffs to the Director.

My hubby's buddies were really not sporting. My Jie Meis spent many days collecting props for the "Eight IMmortals" prank but they refused to dress up and even threw away the props...ANyway the jie meis sa bor them with some disgusting stuffs.

How do I start? I woke up at 4am to have my combing hair ceremony and then it was wild awake for me as my jie meis and my aunts and uncles came to my house. The day before my wedding, I got my manicurist to come over and do my nails and my good friend bought my gowns for me only on my wedding day.

The wedding car is beautiful with fresh floral decor, a gift from my florist friends from The Plant, my bridal bouquet and corsages were also made from them. TheBMW 6 Series was borrowed from my hubby's good pal, so we saved a lot on renting a car.

I enjoyed my wedding day. The thing is I was never stressed on that day, I left everything to my good friend to handle the coordination. The only headache I had was the table arrangement becos my MIL had some relatives who decided not to come at the last minute. I din eat well on that day, tat's why when I drank a lot, my hangover was really bad. My friends were with me till 4am just to make sure I was okay.

I got videographer and photographer from Imagegarden, I got 2 videos, one is the actual day highlights and the other was the studio photography MTV style by Substance Film. Everything was very well taken by the ST staff, so u ppl dun have to worry. I also made a bridal speech and I cried halfway cos I was really touched by all the helps and loves from my family and friends.

The thing is just relax and leave everything to the care of the professionals and your friends. My friends were really a great help to my hubby and me. Each of my guests have nothing but compliments for the food and the service. All in all, the banquet cleared 12 bottles of Hard Liquor, Cordon Blue and 46 bottles of Red Wine...I got 35 tables. So quite a lot of drinkers, considering my hubby's friends were really hard core drunks. But it was really fun and my friends still talked about till now.

ALrite, tat's abt tat...anymore updates u gals want to know, let me know. But I only got one thing to say, Roger and his staff were realy nice and accomodating to us....damn good!
 
<font color="aa00aa">hey sunshinemilo you really have a great time huh!!! my god! u drank so much!!! haha imagine you getting the hang over.. ur hubby must have been even worst! gosh... 46 bottles of wine! is your corkage FOC? hahahaha

u made Sheraton sound really wonderful! i simply can't wait!! hehe which color theme did you choose? any special arrangements?

eh...y must wake up at 4am har? everyone does that? or because of ur dialect.. my god.. 4am.. dun think i can make it leh hahaha i was hoping to sleep all the way till abt 7am hahaha

wah.. u really save alot on flowers &amp; car.. alamak.. i still got to dig for frens who drive

Dear Ladies,

I am not a good drinker, compared to my hubby. He consumed about 1 or 2 bottle of hard liquor, vomitted and then sleep, heheheheeh...

WE dun intend to go for Honeymoon, saving to go for LV next year. As for corkage charge, usual about $18+++, I did not assign anything to my jie meis, but my friend did come out with a template which u might be interested that shows the details for the wedding day. Plus, actually all my friends have experience for wedding, including photos and gowns...which is why I am really relax.

Colour theme wise, I chose the cream colour, my hubby selected so as to match the cream satin colour of my day gown. As for the flowers, no special arrangment, but I did tell Roger I dun want baby breath, so passe..heheheheh...and he's very accomondating.

Projector, I got sources from my friends who had those, so I saved on that. Actually, if you talked abt the setup on that day, I dun really recall cos half the time, I was already high on alcohol, hahahahahaha, but I can assure u gals that everything went smoothly. Except for the ang pows, got some missing, but I managed to recover it back.

I did not get to eat my food though cos I got 2 evening gowns to change, so no time. A tip for you ladies, is please eat well before the wedding, order something. Cos I reacted very badly to my hangover cos I did not eat the whole day. Cos I was too busy changing clothes and jewelleries, hahahahahaah...

We realy had a wonderful time, the suite was gorgeous and all my guests said the food is really nice, but be prepared for some last minute guests who said they cannot make it. I got at least 10 guests that could make it at the last minute.

Relaxing is all in the mind. I didn't expect my wedding to be that wonderful and memorable...but really, it's your friends that really make the difference...so remember to rope in more good friends to help.

Oh yeah, abt waking upat 4am, cos my MIL got look at the time, tat's why we woke at 4am...plus my MIL was really nice to tidy up my new apartment with my hubby for the wedding...hehehehehehe...

Anymore, let me know.
 
hi sunshinemilo,

congratulations! anyway i would like to check with you how many tables did you have altogether? and did you have the long or short march-in?
 
hi sunshinemilo, so happy for u that u had a great wedding that day. btw is possible to email me the template which ur jie mei has done coz at least i know what to do for my actual day. if not i'm like going round n round couldn't figure out how to plan for that day. thks..btw did you make a loss on that day or what the money you have to top up for the loss* (estimated cost)this is my email addr: [email protected]
thks alot. btw did send us ur pics when they are done, like to take a peep..how's the set up in there n yours a long or short march in? what music did u select? wow you did a speech that very brave n nice for you..really admire ur courage!! =)i'm sure all the guests n ur helpers sure very touched by ur speech.btw how's the fd that ur guests commented?when think of any wil ask you again..thks alot for ur info
 
Hi all,

Yes. I am very happy that all the reviews so far have been good. Even up till now, the guests are still raving about the service and food.

I had the long march in, based on my wedding shop friends' advice, cos they said my gowns are eleborate so must walk longer. RT, I will email you the duty list for the jie mei.

I got 34 tables, excluding the VIP table. Music wise, I leave it to my friend, also who is in the wedding business industry to select the music as he is very experienced in selecting music. I really love the first march in music, which all I know comes from the movie "Cinderalla" starring Drew Barrymore.

Photos are already out, but I am in the midst of sifting them so will email you gals once they are done.
 
<font color="aa00aa">sunshine, u chose the longer march in ah.. but then like tat, the other side can't see rite? actually u're not the only one i know leh.. alot i heard wanted the shorter march in initally, then when nearer to date, change to longer one... i wan the longer one leh.. but i also wan everyone to see the gown

hello gals,

I just sent the duty list and the pics, just a few samples. I didn't take note of the song lists, cos i leave it to my friends. If u want more pic, let me know. I hope it helps u gals
 
<font color="aa00aa">me me!!! i wan pics, can email watever you have to [email protected]

gers, i've gotten some feedback from another btb who just attended dinner at Sheraton.. just to share some stuff she shared:

here's a list of wat's wrong:
(1) the dishes came out too fast.. couple not enough time to do table shoots.
(2) the waiter std was lousy leh (same case for 4-5 tables).. they served us very slowly.. so we opt for self service.. then when the next dish is out, they remove our plate (full of food from previous dish) without asking for our permission leh.. i lost my abalone coz i was talking to a fren =( next, the waiter on my table cannot understand wat we want.. argh... i need to talk to him in mandarin even when i ask for drinks.. then they not prompt in fulfilling our request... finally, they look as if we owe them a lifetime!!!
(3) sound system was horrible.. cannot hear the MC for most of the time.. i was sitting at the lower ceiling side.. furthest from the stage
(4) dunno if aircon broke down.. kinda stuffy.. can see ppl keeping away their jackets and shawls.. then 2 frens got headache...
(5) food was still ok except 2.. the soft shell crab supposed to be good.. but tonighte, the oil smell and taste were too strong.. and they were literally dark brown.. think the oil too stale liao.. then the dessert - almond paste tang yuan.. taste exactly like cough syrup..

wat is good:
(1) ambience was good.. the lights were nice
(2) they serve a special conoction "sheraton delight" - very nice...
(3) from where i was, i can see the 2 walk-in very clearly.. so you dun worry
(4) no bangladeshi waiters lar..

maybe we can use this as a "checklist"?</font>
 
sunshine, i din receive it.. can send again? thanks! i also wan to see more pics
happy.gif
hehe [email protected]

purple, wow ur fren very detail
happy.gif
wow so can view with long march in arh.. good good.. hehe
happy.gif
oh yes i will have to postpone my PS.. cos my hubby got reservist tt period
sad.gif
 
I did not receive any bad feedbacks from my guests. In addition, the reviews so far are really good. Roger must have done a good job for my wedding. Ha ha ha... however, there was a case where a waiter accidentally poured some drinks on a guest and this was easily settled when the manager handled a gift to tis guest as an apology.

The most impt thing is try to relax and be nice to the staff. Really, Dickson, the banquet manager and the staff really did a good job. Surely, the almond paste and tang yuan cannot be tat bad that it tasted like cough syrup. There are bound to be hiccups, we cannot expect everything to be perfect, like a marriage.Nothing is perfect.

Cheers and purpleblue, I already sent to you.
 
<font color="aa00aa">hehe my nick purpleblur la.. lucky you din say blueblack hehehe thanks for the pics!!! shall peek during lunch

Hello Gals,

Sorry for the little pics, I thought you gals want to see the dining layout and the flowers, so I purposely selected pics for you gals to see so that you can discuss the flowers and table setting.

I will send you more pics. What kind of pics u gals want to see? I send you more pics of the dining area, k? and the car decor so that you can gals can see and compare.

My gowns are from The Wedding Present, flowers and fresh floral car decor by The Plant, located at Bukit Timah Road.

Tat is a fake dummy cake lah!!!! Ha ha ha!!! I was surprised too that the cake looks so good. I hope the schedule helps
 
<font color="aa00aa">huh? tat's a dummy cake? it looks so real!!!!! hahaha now i dun mind having that :P

wow! ur gowns from TWP.. can i see more of u in your gowns too? both WG &amp; EG
happy.gif
</font>
 
Dear Ladies,

Thank you for the compliments. I just came back from KL and also managed to see ur mails tonite.

I got 2 evening gowns, one red and the other black. The only regret I had on my wedding day is that I didn't get to take a lot of pics with my evening gowns. kekekekekek....too much drinking. I was a dead drunk gal..which is why I intend to take pics again if I go to L V for Honeymoon.

Dummy cake is by ST, so dun worry. My photographer is from Imagegarden. If you want to see more of my gowns, pls let me know cos I dun want to bored u gals with my pics. I will show u the studio pics if u want to. See ya
 
hi could you please kindly send me more of ur pics? thank you...really excited to see more of ur gowns etc...it would be nice if u can send me ur studio pics too..
 
TissueBox,

I tried to send the pics to you but I received it back again. Can you send me ur email again?

Ladies,

I sent you gals another pile of pics. I hope you gals dun mind. Just wanna share.
 
<font color="aa00aa">wow!!! sunshine!!! that's alot of nice pics loh hahahahah makes me excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love the shot you and your doggie had!!! wah!!! i also wan~~~ better start grooming my boyboy now hahahahaha

ur PS also done by imagegarden? very nice!

i'm reconsidering having the dummy cake again hahah was expecting to see those very fakey, out-dated type.. who knows this looks so real :P</font>
 
Thank you for the compliments. The PS is by Vividshots, AD is by Imagegarden.

I also really love the pic the photographer took of me and my dog. There was another shot of him looking really sad cos nobody cared abt him on that day. I am going to enlarge that pic. Anyway, Milo has a lot of pics around my house. My family treat Milo as part of a family member, he even was in the formal family photo.

If really want to talk about Milo, I can talk non stop abt him for the whole day. Ha ha ha
 
<font color="aa00aa">same here! i think that's the prob with pet owners hahaha i also go on and on with my colleagues here.. but they just respond with a HUH look hahaha

my boy's pics are the only ones i have in my phone now haha deleted all my hubby's pics :P

i'd love to see the ke lian pic of your dog, can u share with me? hehehe

cham.. now like more into dogs than weddings hahaha</font>
 
sunshinemilo,ur dog is so so cute!!!! hmmm like that i must bring my dog out for my studio shoot..didn't want to bring him coz afraid it might be very very tiring for him coz we'll be out the whole day..poor little him have to follow us everywhere..so cute do send me more of his pics..like it so so much..but my poor little dog still wearing his lamp sahde...sigh...he will have his stitches remove a week before new year hopefully by then he will be ok..feel so heart ache for him ..can't bathe...sigh..n he's so eager to bathe but cna't..right now thinking of giving him a gd x'mas gift? need to shop for his tmr..hahha guess all dog owners are always so proud of their dogs..but can't stand those ppple who mistreat their dogs..dono is it theirs hearts are made black in colour or what??
anyway gals, have a blessed x'mas!!
 
<font color="aa00aa">hey RT i'm buying a good spa treat for my fren's doggies.. mine still pending for 3rd jap, can't bring him out
sad.gif


i think it'd be good to bring him for indoor shoot, then when we go outdoor, can get him to run around
happy.gif
tat's my plan loh.. or maybe get a fren to tag along? ur fren can also help out during the PS? hehehe

wah... ur doggie bandage so long ah.. must be very xin ku
sad.gif
maybe you can buy him some new toys? or better treats? hehehe

sigh.. dunno what those ppl are thinking.. pets are so innocent. if they can't take care, better to put up for adoption and let pet lovers take over. what do they gain for illtreating them?
just hope that ppl wun buy pets as gift, then dump when they discover they dun like it anymore
sad.gif
</font>
 
Ladies,

I took MIlo for my studio shots. The only thing I regretted now is that I did not take him for my outdoor shots. Cos MY HUBBY rejected the idea.. knn.....

Anyway, I will send u pics of Milo taking the pics with my family....so u gals can have a rough idea.

Luckily, friends around me have pets, so I can yak yak non stop abt Milo and the lucky thing is that he is able to go to tis cafe when we have our coffee, otherwise he is confined most of the time at home....guess Milo feels more deprived that he cannot go grocery shopping with me like in States compared to here.
 
<font color="aa00aa">sunshine!!!! MILO is so adorable!!! just love his innocent, bored look hahahaha have you considered getting a professional to do a shoot for him? I've bought photography vouchers for my fren's dogs hehehe knew that i've made the right choice after seeing MILO's pics
happy.gif
must show it to my hubby tonite!!!! hahaha

think your hubby dun wanan risk MILo having any fleas? or maybe he worried that MILo might be overlooked? but it's really a waste ya?
sad.gif


my hubby was thinking of marching in with our boy.. but dun think Sheraton would agree? hahaha think they'll go crazy if he pee pee while walking down the aisle hahaha</font>
 


Hi sunshinemilo...

Wondering if you can send me your pics for your AD at Sheraton too... i'm planning for mine and thinking of holding it there. Also do you have their package? Would love to get it for reference. Thanks lots.
