  1. U noe my hubby's fren, the one holding at Oriental coming 31 Dec rite? His 2 outdoor location for PS is Oriental itself....and....Jurong bird park! lol Haa..i already emailed Noble House a mth ago. Noble House is re-locating. And they dun let me have the whole restaurant unless i have 50 tables & above. They recommended me Club Chinois but hubby doesnt like cos Club Chinois has got an open kitchen concept rite in the room itself from the floorplan they provided. Last time hubby work part-time at Intercon banquets while schooling so he noes abit...and March-in for Club Chinois is very short. Got pillars at the end too cos if have 20+ tables, they will 'open' up the function rooms at the end...layout not nice. So...i gave that up too
  2. Ya, siao rite? its like paying rental of the chijmes hall....Not a church wedding, dats y can only consider Chijmes loh...lol...other cathedrals will require me to be member or wat i tink...But i find the place sibei sui4..perfect for non-catholic char bo like me Abit sian...Hilltop offers very good perks but Peony-Jade's deco & ambience better...
  3. I've actually considering having dinner at the Jade restuarant itself but its too small leh...but its **** ex for a restaurant...zzzz...A fren say as long as the dinner is at Straits Room, food will be good. Got such thing???
  4. Considering Hilltop Garden or Peony-Jade....ya, actually if got hotels im interested in hor, i may still kapo go & see loh..cos its hard to say rite? Hubby & me still reali v interested in Chijmes but the prices *sweat* Most likely will console myself by taking PS there. But one hr photoshoot in Chijmes must pay $500nett
  5. When's ur AD again btw?? I agree, sometimes get invited to wedd dinn, if its somewhere i've nv been before, i do feel the anticipation, haha...gg to another dinner in Sep at Meritus Mandarin. Went Raffles the Plaza before too...Furama (chinatown there), beaufort....different places different charms...
  6. Dats very reassuring No budget to provide a nicer & more comfortable environment for my guests, the least i can do is to get a better menu, at least can enjoy the food? lol...I will be quite embarrassed if the food is not up to standard... heard dat the Fullerton, sometimes standard of food buay steady...cos Jade restaurant not able to handle alot of guests at the same time...isit true??? But the hotel is super posh... Aiyoh, i love the prawn salad. SOLID heh, ya trying to sai ko me take 30 tables hor!!!! lol I only have pics of the smaller ballroom, grandballroom i nv take cos dun dare. There were ppl inside arranging chairs for the function...no deco nothing but one look, got potential loh...reali surprising. Hubby very surprised also...too bad we only 20 tables. Food is provided by Dragon Phoenix restaurant...not their own chefs....
  7. Things will get more difficult for the next couple of years...u have to brace urself for it....
  8. Hi, its me again, lol! I have HIA 2008 package. If u wan, PM me...if i rem correctly, HIA is 688nett for weekend for 2008. Menu even got deer meat...lol.
  9. Oriental is sui4...by far the best hotel cos the view is fantastic. Of cos, the price is fantastic too Gg to a wedd dinn coming 31st Dec at Oriental Looking forward to it actually... LOL...well, most prob im holding mine at restaurant & to be frank, certain 'frens' of mine do question my choice...feel abit small at times becos of this but its a fact dat i cannt afford hotels...juz hope dat the food will turn out nice, its all i hope for loh... Alamak..i only 20 tables...they have various ballrooms catered to ur size As long as u have 12 tables, u can hold at GCW My hubby likes GCW very very much...but after much discussion, we decide not to go ahead as we didnt wan to overstretch ourselves...Most prob i will choose a restaurant. Hubby will lan lan follow...wuhahahaha....If u can afford, go ahead cos i feel dat GCW is a great place for a banquet. Its not like other hotels where smaller function rooms totally no ambience. Even for small ballrooms at GCW, the feeling is great..If i can afford, i will go for it too...Btw, after gg GCW, i went Novotel Clarke Quay & the place is surprising quite posh! Grand ballroom dun lose to GCW. Big, pillarless, high ceilings. The smaller ballroom is min 18 tables, max 24 tables...not bad as well I have pics of dat, if u wan, juz PM me give me ur email address. Wat i noe is, now is 718nett for 2008 weekend price. Hope it helps!
  10. Cornetto, i have to say ur hubby is the classic case. Run at the sight of trouble becos they cannt handle the stress of facing a woman in anger or tears. It boils down to maturity level which obviously, he has none. So, u r actually facing a spoilt & insensitive brat now. Have this fren who has no probs getting gfs but r/s nv last long becos he MIA the moment there is problem. I read Men are from Mars & Women are from Venus dat this kind of man hor, is like a fair-weather fren loh. U hapi, he hapi with u. U sad/angry, he disappears. I noe this sounds common but u have to tell him dat his actions are not displaying the 'for better & for worse' vows & if he doesnt try to put in effort, u wont be stupid either to hang on. In all fairness, ur hubby may be the emotionally idiot kind. Duno how to show love & care becos dat would mean he is 'weak' or 'silly'. Something to dat extend. Its probably his parents' fault. Then u suay already, have to teach him. Its his responsibility to try to fulfil ur emotional need & ur responsibility to give him a chance. Now dat u r already married to him, u have no choice but to work at it, even if he is not responsive at first. His pattern is like this for so many yrs already, so cannt expect immediate & permanent change. He will nv change, only improve abit. U can only change ur mindset towards his ways. Unless one day, something major happen, else he will always be lidat...
  11. Hubby say its 18 Sep 2008...zzzz....
  12. Storeberry, u make me very gian, can invite me to view ur pics?? heh~
  13. Wah!! and the prices differ like siao...but i noe Traders is under Shangri-la....becos...i saw the logo on the website, LOL!
  14. Oriental also under the Mandarin group...i read it in the newpapers recently actually...cos some tourists feedback dat hotels in sg v confusing, lol....
  15. I stay in Jurong West. Far rite? Actually, abit far nvm but my hubby is always so busy with work...if i get a BS in sg, at least anything, i can go myself rite? If in JB, cant b i drive in myself loh...dats the most sian part for me....
  16. Now hotels abit confusing...Meritus, Marina, Oriental, all under the same group
  17. Btw, have frens telling me dat $700++ for a restaurant will incur a similar loss as a $900+ hotel...cos most ppl give $60 for restaurant, $80 for hotels rite?
  18. 2 b frank, JB packages reali v attractive...but im reali worried abt the constant travelling. Also, if i need to call them, i incur higher hp bills also rite? But the exchange rate reali makes the packages very
  19. If colleagues hold there b4, i dun mind...but if my BIL/SIL hold theirs there before, then cfm i wont be choosing the same place loh...later the relatives keep gg back to the same place, LOLOLOL. Btw, Marriot is not bad from wat i've heard...but latest pricing im not sure cos i cant even hit their min tables requirement, hehe...
  20. Wah..i must be one of the rare ones to like ironing. I also duno why leh. Anything to do with touching water, i dun like...but ironing, quite alrite for me cos i get a sense of satisfaction when i see wrinkle-free tops !! Mine not vertical of cos...I have an ex-boss who has a vertical one but she ends up using the normal one in the end... Whiteivory, tink u quite tall isit? Cos im abt 1.59 & those normal board, i adjust it to the highest, juz nice for me...if too low, my back will ache. When i vaccum & mop the whole house liao, my back will ache whole nite...very lousy rite...
  21. I noe this is strange but i like ironing
  22. Dats true..but if they r coming back from the weekends, cfm will bring back to wash rite...Im alrite with washing actually, cos got washing machine...not so bad. Imagine last time all handwash *faint* But i hate mopping & washing dishes... LOL, mayb...but i would prefer to tink dat we the fairer sex r more xi4 xin1
  23. No, u have a point there....I reali hope i wont get a son. I prefer daughters...but if suay suay kenna a male one, i will try my best loh. When i become MIL one day, i hope i can tahan & close two eyes. Same as u, i've nv encountered a MIL who praises her DIL No matter wat, not her real daughter rite? Everything is fine, haha...i juz went to Ideal House's thread, hehe... Dun wori abt it, my whole life, i nv do housework also cos my dad does everything Im so freaking lazy dat i dun even noe how to operate washing machine until i bot my own. Spent abit of time reading the menu as hubby cant be bothered with me...he tinks im a loser for not even knowing how to use w/m I hardly use the hob at my mum's place too. I dun even change my own bedsheets. Now dat i have my own hse, im actually doing most of the housework. Woman is a natural when it comes to housework NS does help. After my bro went thru NS, when he comes home for the weekends, he actually folds his own blanket & stuff...
