girls, I'm happily married!! just wanna let all undecided BTB know the good service they can expect from Flamingo. firstly really want to thank Shirley for altering a CS I bought from another shop for FREE. really appreciate that. Shirley also made me a stunning evening gown, just as i described to her... made me feel like a princess! although I didn't MTM the wedding gown, i really liked the design too. i also like the bouquets that Shirley did for my PS and AD. Shirley also allowed me to return my wedding gown 3 wks after my wedding cos i went for honeymoon straight after wedding. really appreciate her flexibility. Shirley also lent my mum some costume jewellery to match her outfit at no extra cost. Although there is room for improvement in the hair-do and make-up. Would've preferred fake lashes although Shirley felt that I didn't need them.. Nonetheless I'm a satisfied Flamingo bride. Didn't pay any extras at all. Only "downside" is you only get to wear two dresses, your WG & EG... but if you are a BTB that is looking for many outfits, Flamingo wouldn't be your type of BS anyway. Encourage all undecided BTBs to drop by Flamingo to look see for yourself! |

phew, just sorta completed my gowns fitting, one more thing off the checklist.. getting married is really quite tiring.. esp when i'm a super indecisive bride.. but got to say that HTB n myself are really bery happi with the service n designs so far =) btw, just one thing i realise fr being the "sis" at another's fren's wedding yest.. always find a chance to try out the "look" tat you want b4 the PS / AD.. I opted for thicker make-up w long n thick fake eye lashes for the dinner make-up.. ended up my bf bugging me the entire nite abt how unsuitable this look is for me.. haizz... |

Hi Zhen, Congratulations!! Can share your pics when you get them? Shirley is really good. Can I check with you if you top up groom suit. We went down to the tailor and realised that there are less than 5 choices of cloth for the man suit. |

Hi Mocca, Thanks! Haven got back the photos yet, let u know again =) .. when is ur actual date? yup, we top up for the man suit cuz we wanted a different colour other than black / blue.. i separately bought a black suit for hubby outside in order to have more variety for him, cuz i dun want him to feel neglected w the greater emphasis usu placed on brides for wedding preps.. =D |

Hi Zhen, My AD is on 25 Oct 09. Going for my PS at end Mar. So excited. Will be seeing my gown on Mon. The tailor quite particular, go all out to make sure my hubby suit really fit. Though Flamingo package is higher than the one-stop bridal, their service and workmanship are really good. |

Hi annix, How is your fitting? Still waiting for my PS pics so that can show you all. Haha... I called Flamingo yesterday to check the rates for makeup for mum on AD. Shirley's assistant recognised my voice and name. Wow... impressed. The one-stop bridal shop only remember customer by invoice number, don't think they even bother to remember my name. Flamingo service is really good! |

Hey blackcat, I'm also not taking photography so you can take up a package with Shirley without photography. I signed up more than a year ago, so not so sure how much the basic package costs currently. Flamingo has a list of photographers they can recommend so you can use them if you like :-) |

Wow, you ladies are right... Flamingo is really a nice place. I went to their new shop at Duxton, the interior is lovely. Although a bit small, the feeling is cosy. Shirley is very friendly and approachable, feel really comfortable with her. But sadly, I might not be able to sign with them because there are some things I need in a wedding package that they don't provide... sigh. Would have love to be with this BS. The gowns are so lovely! Anyway, just want to let you all know (and ladies who might be considering Flamingo), this is a very good choice.  |
