The day we will be spenting most of our $$$
Our Wedding date is 13 Dec 09!!!!
Our Shifu : Master Wang from Lorong Koo Chye Sheng Hong Temple Association
http://www.shtemple.org.sg/index.htm
Went to calculate our wedding dates on 18 May 08. At first we wanted our anniversary to be our wedding date but shifu say not good for wedding so bo pian. He has given us 3 dates, 14.06.09, 20.09.09, 13.12.09.
20.09.09 of course is tempting cos easy to remember but our hotel ballroom already booked liao so no choice left 2. June will be out for us cos too hot. Dec will be good.
What is needed from us for the calculation:
Our date of birth (preferably in chinese calender, if not he can also see from his book.)
Our time of birth
Our parent's animal.
Preferred date (if any)
Gave a hongbao of $28. And have to go back to him to calculate the An Chuang & the Guo Da Li date.

Booked my venue!!
After using 1 year looking for our AD venue, we have finally booked it!!!
PARKROYAL @ KITCHENER (PR @ KR)

Our coordinator - Don Ng. bqtsalesmgr@kr.parkroyalhotels.com

What's makes us consider this place:
How did we know about this place?
Was at the parkroyal hotel bridal show, 4 May 08, at beach road and PR @ KR set up a counter over there as well. At first didn't have good impression on PR @ beach rd. Then we decide to walk one round and go back. Then we came into this room where it features all the set up from PR @ KR.
Don approaches us and we had a run through on the benefits. Well the first thing it attracted us is the pricing!! For yr 2009 pricing, we have seen so many packages this is one of the cheapest that i can find. Don't ask me how much is that. Check with Don please. And if possible mention that i recommend you to go. Hahaha.... At first we have reservation to see this place as its at the little indian. You know ppl will have this thinking "Oh little indian ar. Sure very cheapo and a lot of Indians moving around" then we manage to get rid of this stupid idea and go with a free mind, no obligation. After the bridal show, we drove over to PR @ KR to recce the venue and Jamie was there receiving us. Had a great time looking around and even won a lunch buffet voucher.
We didn't decide on the spot. Went back, talk to both parents on the cons of the place and even brought WL mum to recce the place on 9 May 08. Approval chopped. We made an appointment with Don on the 10 May 08. We were late for the appointment and he has to wait for us for 1 hour. So paiseh. Went for breakfast, confirmed the package and paid $3K using UOB credit card (cos got free 1 tbl if use this card).

What's makes us consider this place:
- Good comments on food
- Don is flexible
- Near LRT (Farrer Park)
- Bridal room is beautiful
- Price is just right on our budget
- Hotel has just renovated recently so everything is quite new
- The toilet on the ballroom area is very big and clean
- Liked the favours (shot glass!!)
- Not in CBD area. Unlikely to have traffic jam
- It is just beside Mustafa so it might be too crowded at night
- Not too many comments on this hotel (maybe its good news too)
- Guest might go to the wrong Parkroyal as there is one more at Beach road
- Pillars in the ballroom
- The ceiling a bit low
