Hi Lilic,

Sure.. I'll let you know how good's the sale.. Me only going to see see look look... Dun think Larry is good for yellow gold...

Bunni,
Welcome, but not sure will pricing change when your time reach to print cards. Can just call up for quotes to compare

Hi Lilic,
Do you have the address for Ted Collection? Know if they have any website?
Hi Sharlene,
Where is Allure Charix? Do you have the address as well? Roughly how much would the CS cost?
Thanks, gals!

Hi Lilic,
Ai yah, don't mention abt it... My MIL only wants Poh Heng pure yellow gold, so we didn't have the time to drop by Larry... Later, I went myself, but the shop's quite packed... Din get to see much...
I have gotten my SDJ... The ones that can be converted into gold bar... I got thick yellow gold chains for my necklace and bracelet... the "Da Er Long"(Loanshark) type.... She wanted thicker ones, but I jokingly told her neck and wrist are very thin, may not be able to withstand the weight!!

Hi,
Strawberry, I highly recommend Ted Collection too =) I did my ROM dress with them and am going on to do my EG with them. Their handiwork and services are amazing! You can check them out at this thread: http://www.singaporebrides.com/forumboard/messages/1/454.html?1130730808
I believe some photos of their work were uploaded recently. You can check it out ^_^
bsproffy, great seeing you here too! Are you a FH bride?

Hi Ladies,
Wanna check with you all if any of you will be setting a platform in the Fullerton ballroom... The platform is something like a catwalk stage that allows the bride and groom to march in without having to worry abt the hassles of falling down the steps... Heard one of my frens mentioned that she has seen something like that in one of the wedding dinners... Just wondering if any one you have done it before or will be doing it... How much does it cost? Does anyone knows?

hi strawberryj
winterhakone has a platform for her dinner.. seen from the pics she sent me previously.. you may want to pm her to check... ask her abt the prices before but she is not sure.. coz her hubby dealt with it.. i think.. and he is in related line..
in short, the platform is raised to abt the half the height of the stairs.. and extended to the stage...
i ask delia before but she doesnt know the exact costs.. it will be thro a 3rd party vendor

Hi Lilic,
Thanks for the advice! Will look for Winterhakone... Any idea whether she still pops by this forum? Wanted to ask you to send me her pixs of the dinner to see see the platform... Not sure if she will mind if I take a look... ??
Ic... so it'll be through a 3rd party... More coordination involved... Must check out the price to see if it is worth it..

Hi Blue mist,
I just signed with with TC for a CS as well, after looking at the TC thread... Realised the TC clients are all very happy...
My BS with Sophia Wedding Collection, but I was quite disappointed with the range of EG they have... Quite limited... Although I can MTM, but I was discouraged from it cos of limited material selection... Since I wanted a CS, I ended up having to slurge on a TC CS...
It's such a heartache!! Hope the CS will turn out nice... When's your first fitting? When's your AD?
Hey Lilic,
You getting TC's CS? They sounds really pro and very customer-oriented... I was not intending to sign up with them on the spot... Wanted to see see look look only... End up signing with them...

Hi Lilic,
Yeah, my CS will be an EG... I'll be using my BS's EG to welcome the guests,,
I certainly hope it'll be more stunning that SWC's!
You went to TC a few times and actually haven't sign up with them yet?? Have they designed something for you already? I do not have enough resolution and signed up with them on the spot... Anyway, you still have more time than me.. My PS is on 20th Jan... So I need to be quick...

but in any case, i will be bringing my mum and FMIL there again if they wanna make their gowns..
by the way, you should start looking for your shoes liao.. recent season in hue, ninewest and aldo is good for EGs i think.. and they are affordable too.. =)

Hi Lilic,
Really? I am actually looking for EG shoes... Shoes for Kua as well... Wanted to wait after 1st fitting to buy the shoes, then can better gauge if matching... Will go shop shop to see.. Thanks gal!
Ic.. If you already have so many changes of outfits, then not necessary to get another CS... How is your kerbaya like? Kerbayas are very elegant with beautiful embriodery.. You can wear that to welcome your guests..

strawberryj
shoes for kua, unless you want a different pair from EG, you can try to match the shoes to the color of the embriodery, which is usually silver or gold.. so not that difficult to find.
did you get any fabric swatch from TC? it will be easier for you to find matching shoes if you have the swatch.. maybe you want to get the EG pic from your BS too.. so you can find one pair to match all.. *wink* think you can start from ninewest..
i got no say in the kerbaya... i think... sigh..
yah.. kerbayas are elegant.. but with my figure, i am not so sure if i can carry it off leh..
thats an idea.. but will see how lar.. coz i think most of bf's aunties will wear kerbayas.. scully i look like one of them leh.. hahahah..

Hi strawberryj,
Congrats on signing up with TC. No regrets, i'm sure they'll make you a really lovely and glam EG
Hi Lilic,
Perhaps you can add some diamante to your kerbaya to make it stand out? You sound like you you have lots of dresses to change into. Lucky gal! Have fun =)

Hi Lilic,
Haha... You are BRIDE.. You'll sure stand out.. Won't look like them lah!... Maybe after you have gotten your kerbaya, you can bring it to TC for more embriodery/crystals/diamante!
Your figure so good.. Sure can wear kerbaya!!
No, I didn't know I can get fabric swatch from TC... That is a great suggestion!... Will call them up and get it from them... I have not gone shopping for shoes yet... Hehe... Time to roam Orchard again...
Hi Blue Mist,
Can I see your PS pixs, esp your TC gown? My email is [email protected]

not a lot lar.. usual ones.. WG, EG, tea dress (which i want to couple up as a cocktail dress) and maybe the kerbaya lar.. but i must say i quite blessed to get a mtm TD for free and using my own design..
but then again, i dun think i wanna make so many change leh.. hahahha.. for dinner, i prefer to keep it simple (WG to EG only) else time consuming leh..
my fren suggest i use kerbaya for tea ceremony, TD for cocktail then WG for 1st march in and EG for 2nd march in and CS for goodbye dress.. i think its crazy.. hahahah
by the way, if i remember correctly.. your TC ROM dress is quite nice.. think you should use that for your photoshoot also.. =)
strawberryj
go shopping can jio me.. i very bored coz bf studying.. hahhaha
dun think TC will do the diamantes on the kerbaya for me.. unless i make it there.. but unlikely coz FMIL got her fav seamstress for that.. but quite cool, coz its really handmade.. need 1 year advance notice..

Hi strawberryj,
Send you the link to my pics already =) I call this dress the 7-day wonder.. cos I went to TC only 7 days before my solemnisation and desperately asked for their help in making it... They created a miracle for me... ^_^
Hi lilic,
Wow... a one year kerbaya... sounds like it's going to be a beauty!
oppss... think i'm also out of topic...

Hi Gals,
I wanted to go to Kim initially, but signed with with TC instead... Heard Kim delivers good quality as well, at a much cheaper rate... But she is not a designer, so you need to show her your design... Also, you need to buy your own material for Kim to tailor.. More troublesome for me.. *lazy girl*..
Thanks Blue Mist.. Will see your 7-day wonder!!
... Did they charge you extra for the short time span??
Hi Lilic,
Sure sure... Sms you to keep in touch for our shopping sprees... hehe.. Don't wanna take up too much space here..
Sharlene,
Paisey if out-of-topic.. *blush*

Hi Blue Mist,
Gown looks really sweet on you! Is it chiffon?
Gown looks really sweet on you! Is it chiffon?
Strawberryj,
I am one of the bridesmaid of a friend and since she is busy, had assigned me to arrange and coordinate the dressmaking. Had been dealing with Kim, we showed her our shortlisted designs and discuss with her, she will advise accordingly to our body shape. In the end, the design came out different and so call a new design.
For the material, she is the one who went to purchase it for us, we just tell her what type of material and what color only. But if u have preference, of coz better to buy ur own, otherwise, she can help u too. 1 bride from my BS tailormade a CS with her, cost abt $200 plus.

Hi Strawberryj,
Thanks =) Yes, my dress is chiffon. The photos don't do it justice though... TC's workmanship is really good. It kinda floats around me when i walk. Heehee, i really fell in love with it. In fact my piece is still at TC. So if you drop by their boutique, you can get Don to show it to you. Meanwhile, don't worry too much about yours. I'm sure they'll do a great job for you!
Sharlene,
Please do update us on the outcome of your fittings. Am also looking out for a budget seamstress for my bridesmaids. Thanks =)

hi bunni
i am thinking abt it too.. but i figure that if all chairs have the sash ribbons, the whole deco may look overkill.. too clustered.. so after consulting the coordinator, i think putting ribbons on alternate chairs will look nicer..
but of coz, not everyone will notice lar.. its prob for your own asethetic pleasure.. =)
by the way, it's abt additional $2 per ribbon i think.

i know wat you mean.. who is your coordinator? mine is delia.. she did tell me to think abt it leh and dun waste the $$..
i think the $$ can be better spent elsewhere lar.. afterall i think fullerton's basic deco should suffice.. my two cents worth.
hows all your prep liao? getting excited?

Hi Grazc,
I also want some pointers on their poor service... Then I can keep nagging at them to do things better (Lilic's method... keke)

Hi All..
Don't mean to scare you all, I'm a fullerton bride too, so just as concerned as well!
OK, this is where I think can be improved. Cos my D&D was a 4 course western meal, they didn't provide any condiments - which in the first place i thought was an oversight already. So i asked for some chilli - and had to ask 3 times cos the chilli didn't come (approx 6-8 mins in between each asking). Finally, I asked the manager, who told me it will take about 20 mins. I told him that the dinner would be over by then (of course I was exaggerating). His explanation was that they had to go to Jade to get it. I told him any type of chilli would do, but still the same excuse. Why they don't have stock on hand, or whey it takes 20mins to go to jade (which is just upstairs) I don't know.
Another thing was my friend is vegetarian and sits right next to me. she had to tell the waiters many (at least 5) times that she couldn't have the same food as us. Plus, her food was slow, and came cold (the food was meant to be hot).
Lastly, the waiters weren't very organized. You could tell that they weren't very experienced, cos just after one waiter puts the food in front of you, another one tries to put another in front of you and realizes that you already have a plate. It was funny for me cos my next door was a vegetarian, so the waiter couldn't just pretend and put it in front of her.
Also, the wine stopped pouring after the first course. don't know if it was instructions, but don't think so, cos this was a D&D. But I did notice they the top up for water was very good... my glass was always full, and I drank a LOT of water.
I think we just need to emphasize to them their service, and get them to standby things we think the guest would ask for, so they won't be at a loss to find it at the last minute.
