We had a fruitful weekend looking around at hotels to hold our banquet. We shortlisted a few. Sat we went down to Chijmes, Raffles hotel, meritus mandarin etc... We'll roughly need abt 35 tables in all. So far I think Chijmes is awesome but the downside is the many pillars and the max sitting capacity of 32 tables.
Shangri-la is top on our list too. I quite like the ambience. The garden villas etc.. plus the ballroom is huge! Menu also not too bad. And there's already a WL for the dates we are looking at!
Heard that Grand Corpthorne has very nice ballroom too! Will go recky soon!
Plus maybe will look at Ritz.
Ok will update you all again!

Bridal
Our first bridal experience was quite nightmare. This BS M*M tried to hard sell us their packages.. OMG we were stuck there for the longest time and lucky we didnt make any impulse purchase.
Forget abt the terrible experience. The 2nd botique I went to JWB. This time thanks for gir and hubby we manage to get a good package deal. I tried 2 gowns and love them! Esp the 1st one with alot of laces and ribbons with the long train...I truly felt like a princess! Short of a tiara. The 2nd tube one is stunning too.... I love their laces and swarovski crystals...
The negotiation took us nearly 4hrs! But it's was all worth it cos we got a good deal. Hopefully the mua, photographer, co-ordinator are patient and trustable. After paying so much really abit worried how their after sales svc will be.
Think sept/oct i'll be choosing my rom gown! So excited abt it.... Hope can find something really nice.
Oh finally the hdb balloting is open. Quite many areas.. but limited units. Anyway we are gg for it!! Really really hope to get "lucky" and able to get the units we want. We ll know by end Aug.
This is such a special season of my life that's y I wanna blog it down for everyone of my frens to share in my joy (and stress) of wedding preparation to the next phase of my life.
Will share more. Hope there's good news to share soon!
