Lycia: i dont think they have a preferred vendor but they can pass u some contacts that their previous couples used , and had positive reviews abt. Ting Esther: yup the ballroom is rather grand !! I think i too wont top up. haha Esther i sux i din match the colours properly so my theme and the FS gold is gonna clash. UGH. Soon hock does have bones! its just the way the fish is tho. Have to just be careful but its not boney until u cant eat properly. Ting can I ask what are the colours and flowers on offer? Im guessing its the usual? Esther which BS did you sign up with???!! *excited* I called up the coord to arrange as we wanted a specific date . =) Orh nee - some ple did comment that it might betoo rich as a complement for the meal? I thot the mango gave a refreshing end |

Chin, So what is your theme? I saw before turquoise theme and it looks quite ok la, but i prefer more mellow colours than a striking one.. I signed up with Labelle Couture..looks like you very excited about Bridal Studios...whats yours?? =) I think my dessert is mango too..and the vegetarian dessert is some aloe vera lemon grass dish.. do u have any veg/muslim guests? |

Hey Guys!! Sorry for this super late response.. Came back from the Wedding and straight to work within 3 days.. >.<..! Anyways, wedding was great.. ballroom was great.. a little downside on the service to top-up the wine/beer, etc... and some small issues.. Else, everything else was great.. =) |

Hello All, Sorry for the late reply!! been too busy at work. getting worried about wedding prep. *stressed* 1. Yes, the stage backdrop is mainly gold with some ivory layering i think. 2. The soon hock was not small! it was quite big in fact. Yes, it tends to have more bones but the bones are manageable in my opinion and its nice, fresh and all. 3. For desserts, i heard good reviews abt mango.. i tried aloe vera and orh-nee. My family finds e or-nee not good enough ie abit coarse. I guess its becos my family are teochews and quite particular at or-nee. But in general, i think cold desserts are better cos more refreshing after a heavy meal. 4. Ya, coordinator is the one who arrange with us the food tasting. 5. the flowers are standard flowers.eg roses in varying colours of choice. And i did ask abt others eg hydrangeas and i was quoted super ex pricing of about 100++ per table. gosh. i decided not to do such top up.. Gerald, Do share with us the small hiccups you encountered? Many thanks! Congratulations to u too! |

Just confirmed my wedding lunch at Four Seasons and signed the contract last week! Visited 3 hotels and Four Seasons was the most expensive of the lot (and fewest perks too...) but I just fell in love with the ballroom. The natural light coming in through the large French windows are perfect for a wedding lunch! Wedding lunch is in Sept 2012 and there's so much to prepare before then.... :P |

heya esther, Yup i do have some guests that have special diet. might stick them in as the 11th guest. hehe i had to scrap the turquiouse for the inside cos the stuff are so predominately gold. Now its probably pastels. and hopefully that complements the gold better. Pastel Vintage Chic is the idea. hur hur hows the studiO? Im with digio? lol its just so exciting to start the planning. ! i'm entering the last few mths.. so getting abit tired dealing with the vendors and prep work! flowers wise heard rose and geberas? might take the latter, and add some of the wild flowers i had order for church. Gerlad hw was the bridal suite? hee i went to look see Mandarin Oriental and Fullertons' with my friend. Love the loft suite at the fullertons!!! |

Hi chin, ya the decor is predominantly gold, right down to the trimmings of the cutleries, and the drapes on the stage.. ur idea sounds reali nice! Flowers wise i thought its roses and gerberas..as in mixture of both? I would very much prefer roses...heard their roses are those big ones! I have chosen 1 Wedding Gown, but none of the evening gowns yet...anyway Photoshoot is in mid Feb, so we are brainstorming for venues now.. As for FS Suite, kinda think its quite small.. when is your AD again? |

Just trying to picture how the 2 flowers will look when they are mixed... my PS is in mid Feb. I prefer those 'cinema' style and not posy ones.. Wah Feb!! U settled cards from card room already, food tasting done, now down with choosing colour theme and guest list (horror!).. |

Hi everyone! Happy new year. I had my wedding dinner at FS about a month ago. I'd like to give my feedback. The food : Our guests enjoyed the food and presentation was good. The Service : truly 5 star. There were moments where we weren't entirely satisfied but our feedback was always quickly processed. The staff went out of their way to make sure that when we left FS, we left satisfied. Invitations : choice was limited. So we decided to print our own. Bridal room : Surprisingly huge. Not sure if it was an upgrade. But it was quite nice. Overall, we had a lovely experience. While there were minor mishaps here and there, FS did a great job in making sure that our wedding experience was truly 5 star!  |

Hi Ladies! May I know which vendor did you rent the LCD projector from, and what's the cost? What are the specifications needed? Did you rent 1 or 2 projectors for the big ballroom? Thanks!  |
