Wedding shows in 2005

This year, I attended 2 wedding shows so far. Our bridal shop, Bridal Concept is holding a bridal show at PlazaParkroyal hotel (beach road). PlazaPark is a sister hotel of Grand Plaza Parkroyal. The food is more or less similar (prepared by same restaurant - si chuan dou hua) but the shark fins soup is less authetic.. heee.

The wedding show is okie.. most interesting is the Victorian style. My personal opinion is it is good to see but i won't dare to wear it haaaa. I dun really like the models and their make-up, and the gowns compared to J&M are not that unique.. but nontheless acceptable.

Originally agreed to meet up with the fellow Bridal Concept brides whom i met at a wedding forum. However we failed to recognize each other as there are too many people on that day..

I have attended another bridal show at Traders hotel, by City bridal (IMM). I met my friend WX on that day. She has just booked her hotel but since she has already paid for the show, she came along to look look see see. Traders hotel is quite nice, newly renovated. Their bridal suite is quite big and pretty. There are some pillars at the ballroom. The food is okie.. hmm. Both me and WX didn't really like the show put up by City bridal as we feel their theme are a bit messy.. gown designs not nice.

I have signed up another wedding show next month. However I am not sure if i can attend as there is a meeting on that day and i am supposed to attend. Haiz..nowadays company always require us to contribute our weekend to work.. sickening.

Okie, will continue to update on the other wedding show..

ROM Invitation card

This is just a sample of the card.. with the details deleted away. Just this week, i thought of designing a ecard for official invitation to my friends, and putting the details of the day and maps, so that it be useful for them. Initially wanted to send an ecard from those free cards website but they are not the kind i prefer. So in the end I source for pixs from several websites and use photoshop to add effects to the card. Heee, my brother says why I take so much effort to designing for just an ecard. Recently I have been vexed with some family matters complicated with the coming ROM. Really hope that these problems will be solved soon and the wedding preparation will be smooth sailing and peaceful.

Comments on Bridal Shops

Just to summarise my views on the following bridal shops i visited/seen. These are my personal views :- 1) J&C (Clark Quay) - Basic package: $5K. Not hard selling. Designer is very friendly and professional. Gowns concentrate more on lace. Photography is outsourced to other firms. 2) Flamingo (Tanjong Pagar) - Basic package: $5K. Not hard selling. Designer is not around when we go. The gowns are simple and creative. Photography is outsourced to other firms. 3) U Bridal (Tanjong Pagar) - Basic package: $2K+. Quite Hard selling. It is a new shop set up, so the gowns are very new but not many. Their photos are developed by Kodak, very nice. The Shop asst refused to give negatives even if we offered to pay. Give us the impression that they are not very negotiable. 4) Everbliss (Suntec, Plaza Sing) - Basic package: $2K. Very hard selling. We signed up at their road show. My personal opinion is their gowns are more towards to taiwanese style, heard that they import their gowns from Malay...

Bridal photoshoot!!

Bridal shop: Bridal concept (liang seah street) Photographer: Kit Makeup artist: Lynn 10.00am: We reach bridal concept shop but it is not open. Lynn happen to walk by and told us we are supposed to report to the studio (which is at a nearby building), but kit told us previously to meet at the shop leh?.. Lynn told us our appt is supposed to be 11am, not 10am as the other couple book first on today date. But eeping told us to come at 10am leh?.. So we have to go out jalan while lynn get the other couple ready first.. shucks should have sleep more at home if we know it is 11am for us.. 11.00am: Makeup and dress up for the 1st costume (Ming chu costume). The hairstyle and makeup make me looked like the "san mei" in the drama show "Jie Da huan xi". M keep joking and i am quite irritated. 12.00am: Photographer Kit reach..and start photographing the first costume. Change into the victorian costume with new hairstyle done by Lynn and take more fotos. 1plus: Break for lun...
