Have u booked the venue? i'm also thinking of changing... I'm also considering Puteri Pacific and I'll be meeting the wedding planner of the hotel this Thursday (12/3). Probably can help u to ask abt the availability of ur wedding date... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angielynn 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 Hi xbb,I had went over to talk to the wedding planner before already. Her name is Ivien. My date is available only at Permata Ballroom. But the problem is their price is a bit too high and they can only put 33 table max for that ballroom which my dinner require about 35 table. Having at Pan Pacific good is they include everything for you and u can save up a lot of work. But their corkage on wine is very very expensive.

One good thing is that during the wedding, she will be around to co-ordinate the whole dinner or juz in case anything goes wrong, she'll handle it..Actually, she can give us a lump sum for the corkage charge...Mine is at Persada Johor Ballroom... I think it's quite nice and the main thing is, the dicussion is enjoyable, unlike Mutiara, I have to ask for this discount and that discount...I will probably choose this venue... Hope u will be able to choose an ideal venue of ur own preference... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xbb 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2009 Angielynn, I've confirmed with Persada.... Coz Mutiara required me to pay an exhorbitant price for an exchange of fish.. and i'm not very pleased with their services as well...Hope i made the right decision....

SG Bridal shop - same as above but not cheap haha3. Bridal shop 3 - 5 no commentI will share more info with your all.Actually the bridal shop u choose will depend on wat style u like...they specialised in different style, i noticed...For example, Venus specialises in their actual indoor site which they claimed to be the best and they change every 3 months... As for SG, they claimed that their photograher is an award-winning photograher and they are more specialised in "Tao Ban" which is taking photos with a white or black backdrop and use computer images to fill the backdrop (indoor shooting), which i don't really like it... As for D'gio, their gowns are really new and quite beautiful but the problem is they always go to the same few places and same few poses for the albums and I don't feel quite secure as they are only in business for eight months.. As for Printempts, they are more experienced in photography and i like their natural style of taking photos.. That's why i chose Printempts...Regarding the fengshui master, That's one who is my uncle but I'm not sure how much he is charging for choosing the dates... He's also very experienced in seeing fengshui for houses and shops.. u may try calling him.. Name: Peter Lai Tel: 016-7733390... Do u know wat other shops sell nice pastry and biscuits for guo da li except for Yong Sheng??Tq... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi xbb,Sorry for the late reply as was really busy recently. Anyway I dont think I will take Persada. Found another place. Heard of Straits View Hotel? There is a restaurant there call Marina Seafood Restaurant. The price there is reasonable and they dont charge corkage on wine and hard liquor which attract me a lot. Anyway good that u took Persada as they actually settle most of the thing for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And there is another 1 In Taman Universiti but I can remember the name but the shop is around Bank Rakyat there. And another is at Tesco Extra Plentong. It is a small shop but they also have those item. Try this 2 shops as Taman Universiti and Bukit Indah as I felt they have complete item. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont worryHi angielynn,Actually if u like Persada, u can discuss with Ivien abt the package.. she can come up with a nother package within ur budget...I got the RM768++ package.. and i combined the sea cucumber with another dish, the mushroom and vegetables.. then she upgraded the package with another dish of prawns... better than Mutiara... and they provide wedding favours.. lightened a lot of burden ler... so i confirmed with her...Talk to her abt it if u r really interested.. she is very friendly.. i'm sure she can do something for u.. no harm trying mah...
