hi gin,
hehehe, i think the projector shd be okay for negotiation when it's nearer to your wedding date.
hi ladies,
just for your info, we only used 15 bottles on our wedding day. and we bought the wine from marriott. they also helped to control the wine.
it's quite true that pple take lesser wine during lunch.

hi gin,
we only hv 20litre beer, and didn really control that leh... hahaha... anyway, the beer is complimentary cos there was a promotion for DBS cashline holder, so we got it loh.
you mean for first this discussion, ask whatever qns you wanna ask. negotiate whatever you wanted to too... but know the limits lah, if they say cannot, then push too much loh.
seat covers shd be complimentary, according to mine.
i've got my pix already, but i am very busy, so haven't got the time to upload. march-in song, we only selected 2.
first dish march in song is kitaro's song.

hi gin,
i'm not sure if the ang bao can cover back or not. my fh more conservative, allocate some amount that we may potentially not cover back. it depends on who u invite, friends/ colleagues to relative ratio.
all marriot lunch bride,
do indicate on ur wedding card or spread by word-of-mouth that it is a "8 course lunch", not buffet. my friends are worried that guests will give much less ang bao if they think it's a buffet. a no of my friends ask me y i go for "something so simple" and "ur parents did not object" ah kinda of qn. din get their meaning until they explain.

hi rachel and jolene,
just to share what we did for our lunch banquet. we indicated on the wedding card that it's lunch banquet. and of cos way before we send the wedding cards, we already tell friends etc. yeah, there will be pple asking, but you can just tell them, you like something simple and yet meaningful.
rachel, if you hv invited more friends, the likelihood for you to cover the banquet is higher. However, i can say the same for relatives. think most of them are still rather conservative.
but it's good to standby some amounts in case the ang bao couldn't cover. We didn book any honeymoon trips before our wedding, cos we scare the ang bao can't cover. But later, we found out can cover, then we went to book for F&E tour the same evening... hahahah....
hi yipee and gin,
yep, will send when it's done.... hehehe... but need to prepare you gals, i am quite slow in this kind of things. ;p

Hi Hermione,
Well..as i have not speak to marriott coordinator yet..so cant share with you on how to put on invites. My rough idea is to print myself an insert...where I will put that day's program in English and Chinese together with the card to give them. At least with an extra paper, guess they would see one more time?

hi gals,
you all looking advice on putting wording for your invites huh???
are you self printing the inserts or getting someone else?
actually the most important thing is still to re-emphasize to your guests that it is LUNCH banquet. and the RSVP call really must call them loh... cos even how big word you put on the invites, they still didn notice. some dun even see other word, except the venue and the date.
if you like, i have a copy of invite with me, can send to you gals loh. let me know.

Hi Anna
i've answered ur query at another thread. hope what i said is helpful. So far which coordinator did u liase wif? All of them seem competent. Some had Mark, some had Stephine.
Well if u need more time to decide, ask for about 2 week more. i think they can "stretch' a little.

Hi Anna
i dun noe about Angela. if feel pressurised then prob not ideal to sign cos may regret. sign any contract when u r sure that's what u wan. somehow i tink u can ask for extension. or visit the hotel to show ur interest. i always find that there is more bargaining power when u meet the coordinator and explain ur concern and need for longer time b4 signing contract.

Hi Mist,
Can you send me ur invite wordings to [email protected] too? Thanks!
Gin, Mist & Jolene,
My FH and myself are thinking of getting a short trip getaway right after AD cos it's in june. Maybe difficult to get the travel package if we want to leave right away. will be looking out for the next Nata Fair. If we dun go immediately, may lose the magical feeling of honeymoon. That's y....
Anna,
I agree with Jolene too. 2 weeks seem very short and it will be too compulsive to sign and cfm if you have not negotiated the contract with angela.
I have more than a couple of weeks to my deadline then. Make an appointment w angela first.

Hi Rachel
I've a fren who stayed in Japan for 2 years and she had visited many places there. She recommended me to visit the hotsprings and some places that are veri romantic like this place called Nasu. She's coming up a 5-days itineraries for me. I can pass it to u if u r interested. She will plan it on a shoe-string budget,like stay at budget hotel, book car to drive about. So this got me & FH veri excited. hopefully it will not cost a bomb.

Hi Anna, my co-ordinator is Angela. She's my colleague's sis.
Have booked my AD with her. Quite a nice,sincere lady. She has Mark & Stephine under her wing.
She showed us the decoration of the ballroom, but not the suite. If u happen to view the suite, pls let me know how is it, k?
Good luck~!!!!

Hi Rachel
The itineraries to Japan wont be available so soon. hope u dun mind. cos she will go Japan for a hotspring holiday trip in March. so she will give me the most updated & affordable arrangement. She will check things based on my schedule, which is end June, early July (beat the Jun holidays crowd & my coming exam). Prob you can let me know when u intend honeymoon to be, i ask her to help check out any good deal.
