Golden Horse Awards Bridal

[crudestar]

We signed up with GHA as it was near our house. I am going to take the pre wedding photos this weekend. i personally do not recommend this bridal shop because i don't find their gowns up to style. they claim to have plenty of choices but when i was choosing the gowns for the prewedding photoshoot, all i saw were mostly similar designs and they look very 'ching chong'. they have the quantity, not the quality. currently, I am sourcing for a different bridal rental shop for my white wedding gown, its sucha waste of money.

what i said above is very subjective as it's your personal perference. my concluding advice is: don't be in a rush to sign up for bridal packages in a roadshow. go down to the boutique to take a look and ask plenty of questions before committing. Don't be pressured when they tell you that the offer only lasts for a limited period.

Hi all,

I have just signed up a solemnization/rom package with Golden Horse Award Bridal. My coordinator is called Lynn. she seems like a very chatty and nice person.

She mentioned that there is 5 photographers that the bridal shop work with. Has anyone signed with GHA bridal before? And what are the names of the photographers? would like to see their portfolio if possible?

or generally any feedbacks on GHA will do.

Really hope i made the right choice.

Thanks thanks...

My fren sign up with them last year, saw her photo and i am sure many other bridal shop can do the same. I will not recommend Golden Horse after seeing her photo album.

Hi reiko84, I signed a wedding package with GHA too. My coordinator is Ann.

Where did you sign the package? Have you heard them saying that their marina square branch has close down? Did they tell you where are their shop located other than yishun?

I signed with them in May too

hi crudestar, agree with you on their limited gowns. my bestie used them for her wedding; i found the album ok but can be more modern. I guess it's because they're more chinese type? anyway don't expect too high for the gowns, they don't renew their collection often.

I'm actually happy with how everything turned out. They have great service and the photography was excellent. I also love my wedding gown.

Hi, anyone has any feedback or examples of gha's AD photography and videography with express highlights? Not so confident in them as they did not show us any samples.
Am deciding whether to continue with them for AD photog+video after they told me express highlights is not included. Different story told when we signed the package.
Please help!

when i signed the package, we did checked if AD photography and video is included. the person said photography yes but no videography so we got another vendor for videos and express highlights. also not v confident in them after seeing the gowns...just pray hard it'll be fine.

it's a good decision to sign up with them. their packages are at a reasonable price. i also like their gowns. it ranges from simple designs to those with intricate designs. the photoshoot, on the hand, was one of best part of the stay with them. i really enjoyed doing it since the photographer was also nice and really pro. i liked how my photos were taken too. ^_^v

FYI, today I saw there was a Wedding & Travel fair coming up at vivo, and noticed an 'El Novia Bridal'. Went to their website, and it turns out GHA seems to have changed their name to 'El Novia'.

jollybee, would it be possible for you to share some of your photos from gha?

Dear all BTB,

I am also BTB for next year. I have signed up wtih GHA and my original coordinator was Helen. She was very nice person and I was happy with her. But she resigned from GHA a couple of months ago and the coordinator changed to Joency.
Even though I have chosen gowns for pre-wedding shoot. I still would like to meet her and discuss other issue.
But she seems very busy that I can't even get timing that I could meet her.

When I call her, she would say "have you set your photo shoot date?" "Since everything was talked with Helen, it's remain same." Those words make me uncomfortable and feel that she doesn't want to serve me. I wanted to make sure whether she knows all the other requests that Helen has agreed with me. Without willing to meet me, how is she going to think of the make up that look good with me?

So I would like to know if there is other MUA and coordinator who are good in GHA, kindly let me know.
Since Joency is so busy, It doesn't necessarily to be her to serve me. I am not really a choosy person but I want someone who work with sincerity and passion on her job.

As for the gown choice, I saw the gown only after I have signed up. So serve me right, they are not really new design. I am not sure there are better gown which was reserved by other Brides. But All the gowns look old. However, I was happy since Helen treated me well and show me a lot of gowns even though most gowns are not to my taste. I recognized her effort.

I signed up at a roadshow without seeing the actual gowns too. Was very disappointed after that...not many new gowns, limited choice. my coordinator is not MUA, her name is Irene. Not extremely friendly but still alright. If I can choose again, I will not go back to GHA.

So who is your MUA? Have you done photoshoot?
