Banquet

Like wedding gown package, everyone should read the fine print on banquet package brochures.

Many hidden costs could be left out from the main list of items they provide.

N & I ploughed through like 10 hotels' banquet package, before shortlisting 5 to view the venue.

One of which being Grand C*pthorne Waterfr*nt. Grand ballroom, high ceiling, very nice hosting area for guests. But N was not impressed by the humble bridal suite. *fail*

Another was swiss*tel, but service & follow-up was rather poor. We had to "show" ourselves to the ballroom to take a look.... *fail*

Ballroom of Meridi*n hotel looked quite nice, big with high ceiling, lifts from carpark looked like they needed a lot of sprucing up. *fail*

Tr*der's Hotel's ballroom was rather small, only could accommodate 22 tables. That is the number of tables N & I need for all of our relatives. so strictly NO FRIENDS! *fail*

M Hotel was a good balance. Ballroom had high ceiling, overall the hotel looked relatively new. It could accommodate enough tables for our close friends & family. N liked the bridal suite.

We placed our booking fee at the Grand C*pthorne Hotel Group Show, to take advantage of the perks available during the show.

To all my jie meis: you gals can see how nice the bridal suite is on the actual day :P
