Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel


pieceless, I received one or two. I just ignore them.

confidential, my aunt was quite rotund and fleshy. But she fills out the CS very nicely. You can bring your mom to try a few OTR, you might be surprised by the outcome. My MIL's CS has an outer layer of sparkly lace. It helps to cover some of her bulges

Yes, agree with Lish. I bring my mum go CS shop to try those ready made CS, she tried XXL, quite nice oh! If you dont mind travelling, JB City square have, short CS ard RM159 (S$69), long CS more ex. But my mum is short (less than 155cm) so we didnt try long CS.
 
confidential, my MIL bought from The Cheongsam Shoppe in Holland V. The lady is very patient and let us tried on a few.

You can also try http://www.mamamisse.webs.com. Don't go to their Holland V branch which caters to younger customers.

These two places have ready made CS in a few sizes. They will make further alterations if required.

When your mom goes trying, it's best to let her wear those underwear that moulds the bust, waist and hips. It really helps alot.

Candysiew, wow, the JB is great value. Do you have the address? Would have gone there if I had known it sooner.
 
Lish> Address? You mean the JB City Square? If you go by bus, there is a signboard all the way from JB custom to City Square (shelter somemore), follow the JB sentral (central) sign. I think is at 2nd/3rd floor.

confidential> I think centerpoint also have one, near corner (2nd floor, if I m not mistaken). But a bit ex, I think min 3 digits.
 
Yes, some CS from dhgate are really cheap, like USD16, strips or checks fabric. Looks a bit like one of the CS from hua yang nian hua movie.

Did anyone of you got the wedding lunch package from marriott that are without complimentary hotel stay or day use room? Just got reply from michelle, mine doesn't and if i need a room for putting my stuffs, or touch up make up/hair, i have to book the room that is SGD400 plus excl. 25% discount. Very sad.

I intended to book the pool terrace for almost 1k for about 20 mins use, and wedding lunch for 6-7 tables, already no discount for the solemnization venue and now don't even get a day use room. So tiring to have to re-look at venue again for my wedding. Gosh!

pieceless (pieceless) > I think you better go down face to face, easier to nego. If only for daily use (keep some stuff), mayb you can use the smaller function room beside the legacy suite? I am using it for tea ceremony.

Rental of pool side definately ex la.
 
Hi priceless: I also have 1 nite foc; I booked 25 tables. I tried to nego for another room for my xiongdis n jiemeis, but they die die oso dun give foc but give me disc instead.. Who was the one who liaise with u? Mine is Michelle

Hi candysiew: urs in mar, mine is in may
happy.gif
so Now shld be jus nice u start preparing Liao.. Btw saw ur wg u bought from dhgate; Swee Swee leh... I just heard from my friend her bridal shop dun have enough gowns for her to select; she is very worried n disappointed loh.. I hope I won't have such a problem
sad.gif
 
pieceless (pieceless)> I hav 1 night, 5-8tables. Additional night at discounted rate.

For the CS, after shipping (to singapore) is over US25... but still considered very good deal.

Felix> I just received wedding card sample from planner (shishi), the rest haven confirmed, hasnt decided theme, etc... There are few btb from my BS also unable to find the desired gowns during the 1st fitting. After they complaint n insist of 2nd try on the other day, everything is fine. They all found the gowns they love, some still mentioned too many nice gowns until dont know which to choose. Ha... Not to worry la, do not force urself to choose the gown you dont really like with the staff comment, make sure they bring out the best gown for u.
 
Hi confidential: my friend's BS = Bliss Bridal Creation. She said there was very good reviews 2 yrs ago when she sign up, but now seems that other btb's reviews are bad too. She went gowns selection 1st time 2 hrs cannot find what she wanna; nice ones already booked by others n left those not nice ones. The BS say their designers jus left so no new gowns but promised my friend dat they will have new gowns in dec - but only 2-3 new pieces!??! I signed up with dawn at jb city square, hope mine will be shun shun loh
sad.gif
how abt u? U signed up any BS package Liao?
happy.gif
 
Hi candy: so exciting hoh.. Urs only few mths ago. :p for mine Michelle says I can only choose the white n blue theme cos I only confirmed 25 tables .. Only if I confirm 30 tables then I am allowed to choose other theme.. Else I need top up.. I like the red theme cos I think bright red is very nice for weddings. Actually I think we didn't bargain alot things cos we not very good at bargaining.. Even food tasting oso not foc unless I confirm 30 tables
sad.gif
btw, I have heard alot of good things abt shishi.. But not Michelle.. I hope she be great too
happy.gif
 
Felix> I also dont have food tasting. For theme, shishi gave me catalogue but nv mentioned which theme need to top up/ which is free. I like Dawn too, dont worry, sure have a lot of nice gowns de, I m with Printemps
 
Candy: oic, u with primtemps! I tot primtemp n dawn related, are they? U taken ur photos Liao n settled the album Liao? Did u top up alot? I got the package is for 30pose / 12 pg but we tell ourselves try not to topup cos not pt spending $$ on these things.. Dats why we went jb BS in the 1st place, to Save $$.
happy.gif
 
Confidential: maybe nearer ur selection date, u call n ask them got new gowns anot. My friend gg selection again on 17 dec.. Update u on the status again
happy.gif


Btw ur coordinator is shishi? Good for u leh.. Yah Michelle is quite ngeow! Anyway maybe I will try to nego with her again if I can have the red theme cos it's not like they gonna use it for another wedding at same time unless maybe becos the dinner banquet is using it
sad.gif
I oso think she was new with marriot when we sign up then in apr this year. Subsequently I emailed her to ask her to let me know if there is any wedding show at marriot cos I might wanna attend.. She replied okay but didn't alert me leh when there's one in oct!
sad.gif
like not very attentive loh..
 
Felix> Dawn n Printemp are same boss.. But diff style. I done my PS but havent collected album, I didnt top up any photos. Final album has 30poses only.
 
Confidential: can swop coordinator ah? Hmm, like not very nice hoh.. Nvmind we'll see how next year when we contact Michelle nearer the AD.

More or less those things, but may also need prepare 喜饼, items n date for 过大礼, å«å¦†, wine consignment, AD schedule, invitee list, AD music n lastly, Honeymoon!
happy.gif
 
Hi candy: u didn't top up! Wah! We tot we are the only ones who are thinking of dun want top up. Did the staff try all kind of tricks/ offers to tempt u? Then did they change attitude thereafter? Ur package consist of different set of gowns for photoshoot n AD right?
 
Felix> They still ok leh. bcos I told them I have no budget to topup, banquet, house reno etc. They still suggest nvm, still have long time, can pay by installment, ha... After all she is ok, still teach us how to choose photos.
 
Confidential: I heard the animation quite nice and cute. How much u doing urs for? Yah, i think the london cab is cute 2, i like the pink one. Do they provide the driver with the cab? How much ah? =p
 
Candy: Thanks for sharing ;p pay by instalments also the same. I dun intend to top up if possible cos i think quite a waste to me, trying to minimise my loss too. =)
 
Felix: the animation is friendship price. hehe
I like the usual champagne gold cab which goes with my theme. I think is 300+ with cab but i suggest go to the driver directly instead of gg thru taxi companies.
 
Candy: Really ah, u mean really enjoy the PS session? I tot can be quite tiring.. Mine is in early Jan, already kinda dreading it leh... the thing is me and my hubby already rom-ed and living in our own flat since Jan this year, so the wedding is just a ä»ªå¼ for us.. I am quite excited abt certain things but some other things, feel tiring just thinking abt it... haha

Confidential: Yah, champage gold is very class. Btw, when is ur AD? =p
 
Felix> PS is tiring but really fun. Even my hubby also asked me whether I wan a second one. Ha^^ But he is studying now, he said next time (maybe anniversary) wait he saved enough $ bring me go overseas to take PS. Ha^^ But I m kind of cannot wait liao esp seem others' photo very nice.

I also ROM-ed in Mar 2010. Currently staying with PIL (currently I still called them 'uncle', 'aunty'). You bought 2nd hand? My BTO still hav to wait at least 3-4yrs.
 
confidential (ilovepat) > Sembawang also... Mayb we are neighbour in near future, ha... I think my blk is 385/383 (forget liao), 4 room.. Going to sign confirmation/contract this coming Friday.
 
confidential> Yup, I tried montreal but the Q number is 700+ while only 100+ 4room units. Ha^^ Mine is RiverLodge. How is your preparation? A lot of time for you

Felix> Mine is super long... 2015, but there is another date saying Q2 2014, hope can get it asap... If I can afford resale, I rather buy resale, faster n nearer to mrt... Mine is super far. Ha^^ but no choice, no cash onhand...
 
Candy: so u be staying at ur inlaws first? Ours is no choice cos inlaws' place too cramp..
sad.gif
