Our Band has performed in this venue 5 times.

- Food is the common and predictable buffet . Nothing to shout about. It is not better than hotel buffet food...so do take note ya

- Due to the weird design .... your guests will be spilt. Half upstairs...the rest downstairs. They will be separated all the time. Not good.

Typically...Relatives will be seated downsatirs cos there are many older people...whilest friends and colleagues of the couple are upstairs.

Relatives will feel left out cos it is a lot livelier upstairs...as the couple will tend to stick around their friends and colleagues a lot longer UPSTAIRS than downstairs. In all 5 weddings we have done there.... this has happened. Poor relatives!

- Location - Not an easy place to find even for Klang Valley residents...what more for outstation folks trying to get there? Most of the Weddings there start VERY LATE due to people gettinbg lost trying to get there.

The craziest was one Wedding where the bride literally showed her temper in front of everyone while talking on the phone trying to DESPERATELY give intructions to her Aunty from outstation. the Aunty was also angry cos she cant find the place.

Easily more than 30% or more of the guests arrive only after 845pm! Can you imagine how stressed everyone is? The Bride and groom were already about to explode in anger cos of the non-stop constant phone calls coming in from guests asking for directions since 7pm. By the time they arrive after a crazy late time of 845pm....the BRIDE even scolded her Aunty for arriving so late....and the Aunty retaliated ' WHY YOU CHOOSE SUCH A HARD TO FIND PLACE?? NEVER USE YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU CHOOSE A VENUE!' Everyone was speechless and upset. What a way to start her Wedding dinner.

By that time...The Buffet food were all also cold already :-(

Everyone was hungry...yet still have to wait until 9pm for the Wedding to begin cos the Bride was too upset with all these factors.

- If you can....please avoid Gita Bayu. there are far many more better Venues with better Food....Location and Surrounding.

Daniel Lee, very thanks on your advice.

We plan have a look the environment first before make final decision. Actually we plan a small wedding around 100 pax only. Gita Bayu quotation fit our budget (RM100++ per head).

We also have visited Ciao ristorante and it quotation is over our budget and some elderly do not like western food.

Lakesight's environment too open and my fiance prefer private area.

Have any venues recommendation!! we prefer party type rather than formal wedding reception. So that every one no need too serious to enjoy our happy moment. TQ

one factor you should realise is this: Older people ( Your parents...parents in law...grandparents....granduncles...grandaunties...uncles...aunties etc) will not lke Western Food when it comes to Chinese Weddings.

This is something many couples dont realise...which is why there has been so many unnecessary bitter arguments between the Couple and their parents in choosing Venue and Food Choice.

I know it is your Wedding and not your parents' ..... but we can't rebel against them.

One couple did 2 WEDDINGS: 1st WEDDING: They booked a Chinese Restaurant for their Older guests....and all the older people were happy...smiling and laughing throughout the 8 course dinner. Our Band also performed a lot of Oldies from 50's..60's and 70's for them which they can relate to...which added even more joy for these older folks. :thumbsu:

2nd WEDDING : They booked a Private Bungalow for their ex Schoolmates, College Mates, Colleagues and Cousins.... and it was ITALIAN Buffet. Food was pretty good. Our Band played a lot of the more recent hits as well as hits from 80's and 90's. Almost everyone went to the Dance Floor and danced the night away. :thumbsu:

This way....everyone was happy. No one complained at all in both weddings.

I know some couples may not have the luxury or finance to even hold 1 Wedding proeprly...what more 2 weddings? However....in the best interest of the COUPLE and all the important people in their lives...OLD or YOUNG....this is something you can consider.

Enderong is nice. Highly recommended.

Aman Rimba is not nice. It is a very hot place...and it is EXTREMELY difficult to find. Did I mention that it is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to find the place?

Hi Daniel, yup Enderong looks awesome.

As for location being hard to find, yah you mentioned that about Gita Bayu too. What to do... the couple wants an intimate location, so that's what they get :)

The 2 most teruk locations... Gita Bayu and Aman Rimba. In fact Aman Rimba is even worse than Gita Bayu.

Pls do not be misled with their canggih websites that look pretty impressive.
