CC and I received the invitation cards from Grand Park to go down to their wedding show, A Wedding Symphony, on thursay, 22 April 2010. We were pretty surprised to receive the invites cos we already signed the package with Janice but we thought it was good cos we always have headaches on what to do on weekends. I looked at the itinery and its pretty interesting. Itinery includes talk by geomancy master, how to customise wedding bands, showing the ROM and bridal suites, reception and most importantly, LUCKY DRAW!
The itinery is listed below
- Registration and cocktail reception
- Consultation and viewing of Bridal Suite
- Live Music entertainment from Yours Truly
- FengShui tips by Danny Cheong
- Tips on customising wedding bands by Ling Collection
- Fashion show by La Vie Bridal
- Tea Reception and Consultation
- Lucky draw and Farewell
We met up early in the morning to go down to the bank to settle some stuff and headed off for Swensons breakfast. Its the 1st time we tried it and i think its really value for money. Below are some pics. We had the breakfast and it comes with 1 coffee or tea and 1 fruit juice. Total bill for 2 pax totalled to less than $10 per person! Not bad not bad. A good start to a day begins with a good breakfast!
Upon arriving at Grand Park, we went to register ourselves, got a goodie bag. While registering, we noticed some couples have a sticker given and the staff briefed them on the lucky draw but when we registered, they did not mention anything regarding the lucky draw. We saw our wedding coordinator, Janice, and wanted to ask her about it but she was with another couple so we went to explore on our own. There were other staff showing couples around the bridal suits, bridal cars and ROM venues around the hotel. We did not see the oriental suite the last time we came so we decided to join them.
After viewing the suite, we went down and there was this vendor, Cosmosine, which provides party buses that couples can book for their hen or bachelor party! Inside the bus includes disco lights, KTV, drinks and 1 of the buses even includes a pole for pole dance man!!!! Its big enough for 8 to 14 pax and there are 2 buses on display. Below are pics of the buses. So interesting!!
After viewing the bridal suites and bridal car, we went to the courtyard to see how the ROM will be set up if we were to do outdoor ROM. I think this is pretty new and so we went to take a look. Janice already booked a function room for our ROM, but we wanted to see how the outdoor ROM would look like.
I think it looks pretty nice, but guests may feel uncomfortable and sweat under the hot sun, so we are still considering if we want to change the ROM to outdoor courtyard. Anyway, the whole of the 2nd floor ballroom would be renovated, so if the decor is nice, we may just have it inside the function room. But Im happy with what I saw so far. Thumbs up!
Below are some of the set up for the wedding dinner depending on the theme we choose. So pretty!!
This one is for the normal tables for our guests.
I believe the 2 below are for the VIP tables! 2 choices for us to choose now. Hope we can see more next year and Im looking forward to see how the new ballroom looks like!
We were having alot of fun and enjoying the fashion show, all the tips from the experts and after looking around, we went back to find Janice to ask about the lucky draw thing ( as u can see, we really quite kiasu, hee ). She assured us that she has already put our ticket in the lucky draw and the ticket was not in the mail as she was afraid we would forget to bring and missed the chance at the draw. So nice and considerate of her, we really love her service!
So we went back to the ballroom to wait for the lucky draw to begin and we were playing around discussing which prize is good. There were a total of 10 prizes to be given out and we were aiming for the 3rd prize, an animation of the bride and groom love story that can be played during the wedding worth 2k plus. I was joking and even told CC to be ready to go up and get the prize, I will help him take pics. Hahaha.. So when the lucky draw finally started, we see couples going up one by one to claim their prizes.
When the 4th prize was read out, it was a tailor made suit by the designer of the bridal vendor, La Vie, worth $1888, with $268 dining voucher and $100 voucher for Yours Truly, we thought this prize was not bad. I started joking and told CC to get ready to go up, this will be our prize haha. And immediately, the MC called our CC and my name!! We were shocked and happy at the same time and went up to get the prize. So drama!!!
We missed the 3rd prize but we were really happy with this prize as well cos this is a really expensive suit but its a practical prize which CC can wear to important events. We will be able to collect the suit on 30 May 2010, the day after my birthday! After the event ended, we went to tell Janice the good news and she was v happy for us . Heehee..
All in all, this was really a happy day from start to end and it will be a really memorable day for the 2 of us...
