    Hi Catherine, sorry ya, is me again, I m christine, sorry for the first msg, because i m very new here, i thought the first msg is the latest update message, so sorry that out of topic already. Hmmp.....y dun u put chut mun and church wedding same day?hmm.....actually i m also doing a preparation for my wedding, but my one is in next year and then i just fixed a date with church and pastor. hmmp.....my schedule is like this, 8.30 they need to reach bride house and play.....and pole tea for the bride's family, then straight away go to the church, because church will take 1 hours plus, after church ceremony only go back the guy's house to pole tea for their family, but u must agreed by them. because some of them will treat as not respect. then dinner will be same day. so do everything in the same day......:)

    i always wanted an outdoor wedding, be it a garden or seaside.

    but i've dreamed long enough n i get my chance to do it...after checking around there are many things to look into.

    if ur budget is 40-60 per person, i really dont think u can make it coz its more expensive then hotels

    hotels/restaurants which already stays around 500++ per table for restaurant divide 10 = 50++ per person.

    Cost is one thing..the other would be the weather. What if it rains? u have canopies but it'll get quite stuffy, mess and its not gonna be a pretty sight.

    If u want a sit down with 7-8 dishes this is what i have been told by ppl organizing it say (a resort in PD for seaside):

    if they cook it n take it to the table the distance from the kitchen to the tables might be too far , and thus not feasable.

    seating, garden types in bungalow like Jarrod and rawlins, the garden wedding venue just next to it and tamrind hill are a few i know that can cater to about 200-300.

    but its usually western style or buffet. The garden wedding venue (i cnat rmrb the name but its beside J & R, an orange building. near HELP insitute.)

    down side to these venues is that the seating is messy meaning there are big n small tables here n there on different areas of the site. u wont have a stage like thing where everyone can see u.

    or..getting an empty space and doing everythign from scratch is EXPENSIVE!!

    in the end...i gave up...i decided to go with a hotel and hire a decorator to get the fairytale effect..goodluck dear

    Dear momo (wil u mind dat i call u dis?),

    Yah..it's a great frustration whn u wana do sumting bt ct, budget oredi nt enuf n im seeking an out-of-reach garden wedding dream... :sad: But as u knw, every gal has a dream n like u, i alwaz dream of a fairytale wedding...n fairytale is closely linked wif garden...*sigh* Wat can i do nw? U cn afford hotel...n im so hapi 4 u....bt nt 4 me n my FH...dat's y i wana try my luck here n c wat cn work out da best 4 us 2 hav an affordable garden wedding...since av1 here also thot it is way too expensif 4 us...v mite juz stick wif restaurant or any affordable hotel gua...do u mind 2 share wif me ur wedding dinner pictures? I wana c hw is ur decorations 4 'Fairytale Wedding' theme. Im planning 2 put my wedding dinner on September dis yr...stil havent book any venue...slumber only...hahahaha...bt in real, i hav tonnes of work 2 do...mind 2 share ur xperience in planning ur wedding? Thx in advance. HAPPY MARRIAGE!!!!! ALL DA BEST 4 U N UR HUBBY!!! :wub:

    Thanks 4 all your replies...there are well appreciated...but sadly due to some unforseen circumstances...my FH decided to just have a vacation marriage + church wedding ceremony...cause neither 1 of us like the spotlight so much..n v feel troublesome 2 entertain all da guests during dinner while v dont really know who is who...another thing is to save $$...so i really need some guidance in vacation marriage thing..coz no one i know have ever tried it...i need to know the flow...thanx in advance.. ;)

Im a chinese methodist.... :)
