We went to see the Oriental Garden Suite on Monday... haha and it is 'rejected' by Mr J. Why? The room is in a weird shape.. it is in L shape...so not very good for weddings.. haha for me.. hmm yah it is not the best choice but 10 tables only.. anything lor hahahah
But I think Oriental is giving us quite a good package or maybe it is cos no one wants Garden Suite.. HAHA
So after some discussion and eliminating those hotels who cannot cater to only 10 tables and those hotels we don't like, we are going to take a look at Fullerton, Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton.
Fullerton - I dont like their main ballroom with steps but they had a small beautiful room that can hold 10 tables. But I find that their service a bit lousy leh.. took so long to reply my email.. hee
Four Seasons - Mr J had been there and he find the place very cosy. Comments on the forum said that the Cresent ballroom is nice.
Ritz Carlton - Mr J had been there before. hmm no specific comments on this.
So see how it goes lor..maybe have to think of other hotels...but I really thought through all the hotels...I even thought of doing it at his function room downstairs, then hire some wedding planner, do up the whole place...HAHAHAHAH............
Actually really have to study all their packages, some give free X, some give free Y...so although per table more exp but it could add up to the same compared to another one with cheap per table rate.
heng i only have 10 tables.. hahahha

Havent even book the venue, choose the bridal shop, decide on the date but I bought a pair of shoes??? hahha

Our plans are always changing hahah... too many things to consider...
One of the first place we went to see is One Rochester..I love the place...with all the deco.. quite romantic esp at night....
We went to Amara Sancturary Resort at Sentosa.. cos they have this glass pavillion.
Well we are disappointed. The place looks old and cramped and cannot be compared to Bali
We went to see My Humble House at esplanade to explore it as a ROM venue..The food is great but the place really looks ok only. hahaha and for the price, I think it might be better to just go to a hotel and enjoy the perks such as free hotel stay..
Well we are still exploring........but the tentative plans are...
ROM with reception in Dec. Most probably it will be a sitdown dinner or lunch. It is more for our relatives.
What we have in mind now is Mandarin Oriental.
Why?
Well we love the hotel. First we love the Molton's steak there.. haha but of cos we are not going to have steak for our ROM.
Just that whenever we step into the hotel, it felt so homely and the service is great...the hotel feel so peaceful and quiet and classy..
And Mr J tried the chinese food there and he said it is great.. haha
But of cos it is still subjected to dates availability.. cos I know Oriental is quite popular. But will be meeting the wedding coordinator soon.
Then we have our chapel wedding in Bali in June 2011
Check it out here:

We went Bali 2 weeks ago and visited 5 chapels haha
And we fell in love with this.
At first we are not sure if people are going to come but we decided that we will still do it if it is only 2 of us for the once-in-a-lifetime experience.. hahaa
Well we are still in the early stages of planning. We still have to think of the costs and logistics.. haha but hopefully it will go as planned.. Wish me luck..........

haha the thing every gal wants....
Finally he decided to bring me go to get one.. well we got it last Sat...
I chose to go Love & Co.
Why? I find the designs nice and sweet and it is very popular now among couples..esp for wedding bands.. so most likely will get the wedding bands from there as well bah
haha well.. i really dunnoe much about jewellery..As long as it looks nice, I will buy lor..
But I can only collect it in mid June as they need to take the stone and fit it into the setting..
I am kind of excited cos I dunnoe how the ring will look in the setting I chose.. hahah
@ 2:16 AM
Well one of the thing that we have to do is to find a house.
We went house viewing a couple of times. So far, we have been to Sims Ville, Astoria Park and Central Grove. The units at Sims Ville are rather old so we are not very interested. Today we went Astoria Park. The unit is renovated and looks quite new but somehow I find it very small. Then we finally fall in love with a unit at Central Grove! But it is quite pricy.... we went for a 2nd viewing as we didnt manage to see the master bedroom the first time round.we were thinking that we rent it out for the first year to earn some money :)hehe feeling a bit excited about having my own house but ouch... property is so expensive nowadays.
But finally we decided not to buy the house first..The price is really q high now... just wait and see first lor
