Recommended Posts

better to plan out your budget properly and make sure you book the wedding venue after you choose the right date..

Alicia

discuss this with my bf and we are planning to have our AD in 2011 ... date yet set but sometime before August/September and we are hoping to register maybe end of this year but then again all these have to go through the temple to check out dates and my bf have to propose 1st. Still alot of things to think about, find out n etc. It seems that everyone seems have to date set and so ready ... i'm like in ... no where LOL !

Hi skye,

Congratulations on your marriage! It's good to plan 1 yr ahead and now u hv plenty of time to think abt how the marriage would be. Me too using quite a long time since the ROM (I registered last yr) and initially wanna hv the reception this yr but seems like a bit too rush. So plan to hv it next yr. but I'm also hvnt set the date yet. aih..hv to do it earlier I guess and booked the reception venue before the prices all gone high.

Anyway, take your sweet time to plan your marriage!

thanks but everything still on hold la. so many things to do, we are just doing alot of research right now. me on the budget, checklist and him on diamond ring for proposal :P i still got a lot of things to learn from all of u who is like planning stage n implementing.

Dear Sheryl and all zi muis:

That's the Girl's power...

I am planning on church wedding in the morning. In the evening, i will have my light reception at a cosy place / a club house (yet to decide the venue)

Now, i rather confuse how to tell people that i will be having a reception as the following style:

  • light cocktail will be served to our guest, we expects lots of mingling and interaction throughout the night
  • Pianist to play Jazz music at earlier session
  • Invite 3 piece band / DJ to play hot music at later session
  • A dance floor for our 1st dance - Waltz / Rumba / Cha Cha (not sure aunty and uncle will enjoy it or not :wub: )
  • Food will be served in Buffet-style - means my guest need to queqe ans get their own food.
May i know what is the right term to use when i address my wedding reception above ? Especially in telling ppl or get it printed on the card, so that my guest will not think that this is a "cheapskate" kind of dinner?? :wacko3:

Hi all!

Anybody planning to ROM on 11.11.11 here? Hehe :wub:

missy may, I really love your idea of wedding dinner! Would so love to do it that way too, but I think my grandma will object, cos I'm the eldest grandchild, sure she'll expect my FH to organize a "grand" chinese-style wedding dinner :unsure:

And buffets are cheaper!! :rolleyes:

Cheerystar,

Yeah, it's not everyone could accept this kind of reception :lol: Btw, the buffet not cheap … the price close to hotel banquet :cool:

Hi Jessytay:

May I know what is the wording that you printed on the invitation card ? do you mentioned something like "You are cordially invited to attend our "cocktail reception" / "buffet dinner" ?

I had the similar wedding too, minus the band. For the reception, we just put it there as 'Cocktail, Dinner & Dance', this is a very common term used in any event
