Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel

[monkie]

hi wendy
if i am not wrong, we paid $2k to book the date.
then maybe a few weeks before the banquet or after selection of dishes, we need to pay $2k (this one i am not sure whether do we still need to pay anymore deposit till the wedding ends).

 

[jetaime21]

anyone had their ROM at marriott? can share the pictures of the setup? thanks...

hi,

my AD is on Mar 08 and so far the responses from Alison and Charlene at Marriott have been very quick and precise. paid 2k for deposit (mine's only 90 guests). does any1 know if they charge for cutting cake bought in from outside?

 

[danielle01]

hi all,

Have anyone tried asking for 30 tables for weekend sit-down Chinese dinner @ Marriott? I know their min is 40 tables.

Anyone care to share their package with me ([email protected])? I may be booking this Oct.

 

[jetaime21]

hi amethyst, why would u want to bring cake from outside when marriott provides really pretty cake?

 

[sensech]

Danielle, my initial number of tables were 30 on a Sat evening. That was the minimum number I had to commit to. Subsequently, the numbers increased to 40. I guess you can speak to the coordinator to check if they still allow 30 tables.

[sensech]

Hi, I had the red bean paste with dumplings as my dessert too. I requested for them to change the dumplings filling to peanut paste and I think it tasted great.

 

[bearyblur]

hihi, i am also going for my food tasting ard early nov. anybody had mango pudding as their dessert?? any idea whether is it good??keke..

 

[purpledropz]

Hihi, their mango pudding is quite good. The presentation is nice too. But I chose Sweetened Red Bean Cream with Lotus Seeds, Lily Bulbs & Dumplings becos mostly my guest prefer hot dessert

 

[princessxiaomei]

woah... i wonder do we get to eat our dessert.. normally bride & groom get to eat how many dishes? anyone of u gg for the marriott show tis oct?

 

[sensech]

princess, bride and groom normally wont hv time to eat the food coz they need to change, yum seng, take photos etc. But marriot will arrange to keep your portion of the food, heat it up after the banquet and serve it to your room after the dinner.

 

[monkie]

wow..so throughtful of them...i need food...food...

 

[princessxiaomei]

sensech~ But my in laws wants us to at least eat the first and last dish leh... i also hope can eat that... i udnerstand from charlene that they will put our food in the warmer and send it to the room for us.. good service!! =) But i think we will be too tired to eat? hahaa...

 

[princessxiaomei]

Anyone going to the wedding show this 13Oct?? Heard there will be new themes and new wedding cakes and wedding favours.. many things also new.. hahaa... =)

 

[bearyblur]

momo, thanks for the feedback..keke cos i am looking at choosing their mango pudding for dessert..

princessxiaomei, yap i am going for the wedding show on 13th oct also..

.. going to see what i can use for my wedding in Dec.

 

[princessxiaomei]

bearblur~ hello.. me too, i'm going to... =) you are getting married in Dec? Which date? CAn i view your PS photos?? Your bridal studio??

[email protected]

 

[monkie]

for us, its wedding lunch, so we can still have time to eat after the banquet.

 

[bearyblur]

hey princess, my wedding AD is 22nd dec.
my BS is Ted Wu, but my wedding photos i took from Venus(JB)..

 

[princessxiaomei]

Hmmm.. bearyblur, it's ok.. can i see your photos?? hehee..

BTW, anyone has any idea if Marriott has any Grand Piano around? Or just a normal standing piano??? Thanks...

 

[bearyblur]

princess, you got msn? will PM you.

 

[sensech]

princess, I actually managed to get to eat my first and last dish. I think there shd be no problem eating the first dish coz once you r done with cutting the cake, u will proceed to the table first. You'll only need to change a little while afterwards. But I was a bit worried abt eating coz I dont want to dirty my makeup, esp my lipstick.

Whether u'll get to eat the last dish depends on how fast u can finish the phototaking session. For us, we finished at the 2nd last dish. We had abt 41 tables. I remembered the banquet manager Christine arranged for the waiters to serve the dessert to the VIP tables earlier, probably so that we could hv time to eat and then proceed to the exit to thank the guests. Really good service they hv there!

 

[bearyblur]

hey sensech, which wedding theme did you choose for your dinner??

 

[princessxiaomei]

Hi bearyblur,
you can add me at [email protected] DO let me know who you are ok? So that i will approve. =D

 

[princessxiaomei]

sensech~ atraight after 2nd march in will be champagn pouring? Then we will be taking table to table photos? You have 41 tables? And you managed to finish fast to eat your last dish.. hmm.. i mentioned to charlene before on this matter, she is fine as long as we start on time too. hehe.. which i agree. What time did you start then? i think i will have abt 35 tables. I won't hit that many.

 

[bearyblur]

princess, i have added you already.. cutebear my nick..

 

[piggysbride]

Hi... I am new here.

Wondering if anyone can share the details (menu and perks) for the wedding lunch?

[email protected]

 

[bearyblur]

hi piggySbride,

welcome welcome! Erm I am not too sure about the menu & perks for wedding lunch as mine is wedding dinner. But prephas you can email or call Marriott to ask for it?

 

[sensech]

opps, sorry for late reply. Wasnt in office for past few days..

bearyblur, I chose Garden of Love as my theme. You can view my layout in my multiply.

princess, yup, i had 41 tables. Had champagne pouring straight after 2nd march-in, then toast on stage and thank-you speech. If I didnt rem wrongly, my dinner started somewhere between 830 to 845pm. It was on a sat. Actually I was quite surprised we managed to finish our photo-taking so fast.

 

[princessxiaomei]

sensech~ are you in my multiply? I wanna see the photos too. GArden of Love is the old theme or new theme? Your 2nd march in song and champange pouring is it the same song? Hmm..

 

[sleeping91]

Hi any1 got the pricelist for 2008 or even 2009? can email me at [email protected] thks

 

[sensech]

princess, I'm not sure leh. What's ur multiply ID? Garden of Love shd be old theme bah coz when I had my dinner, Marriot had not officially launched the new themes. I cant rem if I had the same song for 2nd march-in and champagne pouring leh. It might be the same as I think the song continued to be playing.

 

[jetaime21]

hi, the new themes will at the wedding show this Sat.

 

[princessxiaomei]

sensech.. thanks.. haha.. you blur liao.. then do they have first dish song? Given by you or Marriott?

eternal6068

joyce.. you will be going to the wedding show this sat? =)

 

[jetaime21]

yes i will be there

 

[princessxiaomei]

hee... me too! When is your AD?

 

[jetaime21]

AD on 28.02.08

 

[monkie]

hi princessxiaomei
can u add me? my ID is rockenton

 

[monkie]

i got positive compliments from friends that marriott is a good choice. decoration i am taking the one with red color ...should be "rapsody of love"?

 

[sherlin]

Went to have a look at the Grand Ballroom today, it seems to look quite small, doesn't look like it can accomodate 40 and above and ceilings not very high, abit disappointing.

 

[princessxiaomei]

Joyce, i went down on Saturday and there are only 3 themes leh. And the pink one is nice, but my EG might blend in with the theme, so might look wierd... considering the white one too... but don't know those elders will grumble or not... sigh.. have you check with them whether we can use their past themes?? They change their theme every year??? i was thinking if they will have new themes mid next year.. then since mine is sept 2008, if they have new themes can i use the new ones too.. hahaa... =D

 

[princessxiaomei]

Joyce,
your AD is this year? The new themes are for 2008 so those having AD in end 2007 can use them too?

 

[jetaime21]

If your wedding is in 2008, i guess u have to use the new themes, esp when yrs is Sep. I will be taking the gold theme.

 

[sherlin]

I saw that when you enter the ballroom, on the left side, there seems to be a pillar there. Anyone effectd by that?

 

[monkie]

marriott can hold about 35 -38 tables only. but advisable is 35 cos anything more than that can be quite cramp.

 

[princessxiaomei]

There's a pillar???? I did not notice leh. Gosh...

Marriott maximum is 35 tables only? I thought 50? i booked their minimum 35.
