Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel

harlo gals!!

lemoncake...i was held up in a meeting also din managed to go down...so "pai mai"
sad.gif
. Missed this opportunity to view the oriental setup, dun know when is the next one..

forest, luckily u managed to go down!! at least there's one of us managed to see the setup. U say it's a modified oriental theme?? that means they are flexible enuf for the couple to change the design here and there?? i wonder if there's any additional charge involved. so after seeing 2 different themes, which one u prefer? oriental or vineyard? So have u and ur FH decided to go for marriott mah?? if yes, PM me hor...

ish, i was also given 2 nite stay...but of course i dun have a helper's room lor...

Cawaii, i thought the oriental theme card easier to write than vineyard one? I can't really remember but then i thought vineyard cards need insets?? that will cost extra if i'm not wrong...

mr_bean, thanks for ur email!! i'll be going down to Milan tomorrow...
 


hi yong,
yes, i noticed the seat covers.. its the silk one.. whereby there's 'pattern'.. not only plain white covers... is this the standard? pls update me hor... tks..
happy.gif


hi girlz,
yes, its a modified oriental theme... only the aisle n table centrepiece is utilising the oriental theme... the stage deco is modified.. used white colored drapes n flowers instead... according to sunil, they do allow couples to modify it.. cos' its still their own preference... but he did say its a pity if the theme is not being followed thruout.. cos' it kinda loses the meaning of the theme..
happy.gif


actually, i also do not know which of the themes i like best leh..... very blur...
uhoh.gif


we r almost there in terms of our choice... will visit 1 other hotel today, and make our decision soon...

hi gals,
where's everybody???
uhoh.gif


does any1 know if the seat covers (the silk n patterned one) is the standard?? or have to top up for it? tks!
biggrin.gif
 
hi all,

just to let you know, that we will be booking with marriot for their lunch banquet... all the ladies book the dinner banquet huh???

meeting Mark next monday... not sure if we can mix and match their menus leh.. anyone negotiate on that??
 
Hi forest and mist
happy.gif

this thread has been very quiet for awhile hor...
The silk n patterned seat covers are the standard ones, in fact Marriott provides golden and white ones for selection... last year even have matching silky table cloth leh, very elegant!
I guess both dinner and lunch banquets are allowed to do some mix and match among the given menus. since my wedding is a weekday one, I am allowed to mix and match between Jade 1 and 2 menus. hmm... anyone trying to m&m more than this?
 
Hi ladies

I'm back!!

Forest, actually I seen wedding at Marriott with the normal seat covers, not the crumpy type.. asked Angeline and she told me it might changed, since the crumpy ones have been used for sooo long and it's more expensive to maintain.
 
Hi all,
Everyone likes their crumply seat covers. Me too. I first saw them in a outside cocktail function, and everyone thought it was wonderful.

I spoke to one of them when I went to collect something, I wanted to see the ballroom AGAIN, cos I brought a friend, she gladly showed me there although she wasn't my coordinator. Asked her about seat covers and she said, yes, the crumply one is the standard for all, not even alternate chairs, but all chairs.
 
hi lemoncake, pinkdot, pianokey,
huh... got sooo many differing answers on the seat covers ah... i really hope tt the silk n patterned seat covers remain leh... its def more elegant n grand than the plain ones....
happy.gif


lemoncake,
yup, i've been told tt we can mix n match within the same cat.. like jade1 with jade2, and jade3 with jade4.. if i wan to m&m between jade2 n jade3 for example, then hve to top up lor..............................
uhoh.gif
 
hi all,

i also like the crumply seat covers. hope they dun change that...

hi lemoncake,

i did mix & match but hve to top up.
 
hi ladies,

i have confirmed my booking with marriot yesterday liao.

anyway, they say i can change 1 or 2 items, but may need to top up depending on what items we choose.

oh, i also asked abt the seat covers, they told me that it will remains as the crumple, ruffle materials seat cover.
 
Hi Mist,

I am booking their lunch banquet as well. How was your negotiation going on? Have you signed your contract?

Up to now, I still haven't signed the contract though I have confirmed my booking with them.
 
hi yong,

hmm, i also hvn't sign the contract,cos they need to make amendments to it, then sent me an updated copy.

after i signed it, then i will pay the deposit loh.

my negotiation was okay loh, didn get anything in extra lah, only managed to exchange some items on the menu. since it is for lunch and the price is really resonable, there's little room for negotiation loh.

for lunch, there will be no wedding favours and food tasting. if you want food tasting, you have to pay, and wedding favours, we will source ourselves loh.

is there any reason that you hvn't sign the contract??
 
Hi Mist,

Oh...Long story. But overall, the coordinator is sooo busy that we have to keep chasing after him. Each ammendment takes very long for them to update. Maybe they are very busy now.

If you have negotiated the terms beforehand, I think yours can be settled very fast.

I am thinking of preparing wedding favours ourselves too. If you have any good deal, don't forget to let me know oh : )
 
Hi Mist,

Can i check with you how many tables are you taking? The reason why i ask was that I did manage to negotiate with Mark then for the wedding favours. As for the food tasting, he is willing to throw in half the cost for 6 persons. I was asking for 30 tables then.
 
hi yong,

hmmm, who is your coordinator??? yah, mine is also very busy leh.

anyway, he did mentioned that i can sign on his prepared contract, which alot of amendments are required. We just told him we prefer that he make all amendments before we sign on the dotted line, to prevent any conflicts in future....

so we will wait for his contracts loh, anyway, if his contracts not ready, then delay paying deposit only mah... ;p

yes, i am thinking of preparing wedding favours ourselves too!!! dun know where to start from. maybe hv to go round checking the prices of items loh.

yah, we'll keep in contact and let u know if i hv any lohbang... :p
 
hello,

my coodinator also very busy.. but when i left a voicemail, he will definitely return the call the same day.

me thinking of doing my own wedding favours too,
any suggestions?
 
hi ish,

seems like coordinator all very busy huh??

when's your wedding huh??? mine nov 2004.

i hvn't think of anything for wedding favours yet, will look around first loh.
 
hi mist,

ya loh... initially i'm a bit concerned.. but he say can contact his colleagues if there's anything urgent.. so should be alright..

mine's in june 04
happy.gif
 
Hi mist,

Merry Christmas!

I think your coordinator is the same as mine. Mmm....start with M....guy.

So just good luck to both of us lor...hope he will remember to contact us by that time : )

Mine is Dec 04. Still got long time.
 
Actually can I know what is your budget and quantity for the gifts? It would be easier and cheaper if we can combine the purchase together from wholesaler right?
 
hi lemoncake,

hmmm, actually i dun know what is an appropriate amt... maybe not more than $2.

i know my friend did those beads accessories for HP. Maybe i will ask her how much it cost, thinking of doing it myself... ;p

you got contacts of any wholesaler?
 
Hi Ish

I am quite interested in the mint-in-a-tin shown at the website you've given..
it cost 2.40 if order more than 200pcs..
Hmm, wonder if they could give more discount if we have more qty?

gals, do go and visit the website www.wedding-favourites.com
and pls let me know if anyone's interested too!
 
hi pink dot..

yup.. it will be a good idea to order together... but i havn't decide wat to give.. hmmm...

actually I know how to do those crystals & beads stuff.. thinking of doing hp thingy too.. but dunno people will appreciate or not.. cos I use swarovski crytals.. if they dun use or throw away.. will be quite a waste...


btw, I got a website. but I can't publish here.. just pm or email me at [email protected] and I will let you know the link
happy.gif
 
Hi forest,
Welcome to join us! Finally you made the decision
happy.gif
Guess you must be happy like us in the preparation for our big day.

Hi ish,
There are many nice items from your recommended web site, but me too still considering what to give.

Hi mist,
I have a few contacts of wholesaler collected from other SB threads, I shall compile a list and call them up one by one to check what they have. Maybe I can update you when it is done?

wah, you are all very talented! I see a lot of swarvoski crystal accessories, very beautiful but seems like it takes a lot of patience to make them. initially I like the mini-bear, but now I have collected quite a lot from friends' weddings. seems like we have a hard time to think of something special. The crystal accessories sounds good, your guests surely appreciate your most personal-touch wedding favors!
 
Oh! Forget to thanks Lilac for sharing with us her wedding set-up photos! The vineyard set-up looks so romantic... hopefully my day will be a smooth one.
 
hi ish,

you also will be doing HP accessories for your guest huh??

i thought that is a great idea leh, just scare that i can't meet the deadline....

hi lemoncake,

thanks leh, do let me know when you hv check with the wholesalers...

Happy New Year!

uhoh.gif


to all gals,

biggrin.gif
 
Hi gals!

Finally my wedding is over. It was really unforgettable. Can't wait for the pics to come out and show u gals. For those who are going to have their wedding at Marriott, I must say you have made the right choice!

Hi skywolf

I had a table for muslim. Got two menu to choose from. Cost the same as chinese food. But if you are only inviting less than a table and thinking of getting individual set for each muslim, you have to top up $70 + for each set on top of the cost of each table. I think it's not worth it lor.
 
Hi everyone,
I will do the list
happy.gif

Hi Melissa,
So glad to hear from you again! It must be very wonderful to hold the wedding during festive seasons! I am looking forward to see your photos le
happy.gif
 
Hi Melissa n Cawaii,

Thanks a lot!

Wow, really not worth it to do top up... hmm.. will try to make it at a table... How was the malay food, any idea?

Oh ya, how much is each table?

Hehehe... thanks!!
 
Oh yes, forgot to include in my earlier mail... Anyone has the url to their wedding packages? Coz I cant find it...

Thks!
 
hi skywolf

Think the malay food is ok. From the menu look quite nice. How much is each table depends on how much is your chinese table. They are the same price.
 
hi melissa,
congrats for a wonderful wedding!!! yeah, i second mist, do show us ur pix when its ready hor!!
happy.gif


hi skywolf,
i dun ve the url... cant even rem if i ever had it... u can jus call up the coordinators at marriott @ 68314769 to get them to email u....
biggrin.gif
 

hi skywolf,
no problem
biggrin.gif


well, for marriott, there's no restrictions... wat u do is tt u can get their pkgs, arrange an appt to go down n view the ballrm.. best is to go when there's a wedding so that u can see the entire setup (with their oriental or vineyard theme) and their intelligent lightings... if u like wat u see and hve already got ur date, make a tentative booking first.. they can hold the date for as long as no one else wans the date.. if the date u book is requested by some1 else, u'll b given the priority...
happy.gif


for how long in advance, some ppl do it a yr ahead, some do it 1.5 yrs ahead...

Hope the above helps...
happy.gif
btw, when r u looking at for ur AD???
