2013 Wedding Chat

[Mike1982]

i believe it's during the course of planning the couple get to work out the differences and see the best setting for the big day.

not forgetting the "got pillar / no pillar" factor

To me, its just a venue, the most impt is the one you gonna spend your whole life with.

oh! where is your AD.

actually i don mind MM small ballroom. but my bf say it does not look grand.

Guys more picky eh!LOL!!

ME July 2013! Seems like not many people are doing it in July? I (am trying to) keep mine a small and initimate affair - but still have about 160 pax (with mostly relatives).

I also had a problem with hotels rejecting due to the small number of guests.

Gathered that most of you are settling for hotels - I'm doing mine outdoor at non-hotel location, having to take care of almost everything on my own, but sure looking forward to it!

thanks mike1982! congrats to you, and all of you too

I also have the same question about the "right time" to look for/book a JP? I suppose it also depends on whether the JP is a popular one, if so then probably has to book him earlier?

I took a glance at the rom site, can only chop the date 3 to 4 months in advance

Hi all,

I'm having my AD in Sept 2013 but going ahead with my ROM this Sept. Anyway if you have a JP in mind, always good to check in advance. Ignore the 3mth recommendation ROM states on its site, especially if you are thinking about inviting one of the more popular solemnisers. I asked in late April and was told that for a Sept ROM ceremony, I was already considered a little late and that he had people asking him abt Dec ceremonies already *shocked*. Was lucky that he could still squeeze time out for my ceremony >.<

Sourcing for venue as well... Any good recommendation?

[snowflake1982]

Hi there, yes it went well! My HTB and I were really worried at first as there was a mild typhoon in Taipei when we first arrived, and we wanted to take pics at Danshui. We met up w the coord and photographer at the Taipei branch and they suggested alternative venues (both outdoor) to get the shots we wanted. We went to the flower fields in Taoyuan and a new photoshoot location in Daxi. Had to pay for the entrance fees for both, but they are worth it. Overall my HTB and I were very pleased with the services and we did top up for an additional 50 photos in the end cos they were so well taken. Btw it's much cheaper to top up in Taiwan rather than in sg!
