woah... $160 is expensive! so exciting!!!! i'm gg there in Nov!

Just to check something, the package includes 20 or 30 photos right? But some of the sample album i saw are combination of a few photos (like same scene, diff poses). Will that still be considered as 1 photo (on 1 page)?

Hi cheryl, the parcel is quite heavy that's why it is expensive.

if 1 page they put 3 photos, means you will only have 10 pages. if you do not wish to top up any photos and just stick to your package given photos, i think you can request them to just put 1 photo in 1 page means u will have 30 pages.

Hihi, is there any recommended place to buy the nu-bra? Which brand is recommended?

i bought my nubra from gmarket. bought it at less than $10 only. i only use the nubra for PS and AD so i dont need such a good nubra which can cost at least $50 each.

Hi cheryl,

I thought it was the 20~30 is calculating the photos/poses not the pages.
Therefore many bridal will hope that you will topup for more poses when you selecting the photos.
This is how they earn.

i did my manicure & pedicure in sg before going for the shoot. from what i know, the manicure/pedicure they provide is just to pain your nails. you can email them to check with them what they meant by basic

the pg do not specifically capture your nails. unless you tell him you want him to capture your nails if you doing 3D nail arts. i did 3D nail arts but i never specifically tell him to capture it. unless you want to waste one of your photo or to topup 1 photo just for the piece(s) he captured on your nails. i did my mani with a home-based manicurist.

hi all, great news if you are keen. Na.za is at Vivocity exhibition from 30th Sept to 2 Oct (Friday to Sunday)

 

[Jiemin]

Someone is selling away her NAZA package in the market place, its 1400+, its a pretty good buy, anyone interested can take a look.

 

[magicdust]

any recommended photographers from naza? im going for my shoot next wk~ anxious!
or any not-recommended photographers? seems like their photographers all seem ok?

also i was told to bring a front-open shirt, must the shirt be loose? coz my workshirt is a little fitting.. wonder if that is ok.

 

[Lunamoon85]

Dear Na.za brides, I just came back from the photoshoot in last week.. wow they are very professional! my MUA is Peiling, PG is Ah You and assistant Dawei, all of them are awesome and can make you smile so naturally. NA.za also has corporate rate with other hotels ( there are hotspring hotel and boutique hotels) which the assistant there Xiao Mi is so helpful to help you book during your RnR stay there

 

[thoughtzzz]

So happy to hear that. I am planning my taiwan itinerary after the photoshoot, can they help me book in advance too?
BTW, how many ampoules did you used?
Also, how many photos you added and how much is it?

 

[Lunamoon85]

Hi thoughtzzz, yes they can help you book in advance, you can look for them once u reach Taipei on your first day. (to ensure u can secure ur booking at good hotels) I stayed Wego (a boutique hotel ) and Spa Spring resort during my "rest and relax" -> nice experience!
i brought my own bottles of ampoules- recommended by Princess Crystal ( Bride use around 2-3 bottles, groom use 1 bottle).
On your 3rd day, they will go through photo selection with you. Initially I was unwilling to top up more than 10photos..but after that NA.za will "introduce" us some good deals, so i topped up 90 photos so it's around $20 per pc after you divide them.
by the way at ur photos selection, u can also negotiate with them to throw you more freebies e.g. Poster, Ferris wheel album, Upgrade your bedframe photo size, etc etc.
Bring SGD cash to pay for your remainingbalance amount or use credit card (taiwan exchange rate is better than sgd..) our credit card rates is 23.43 whereas spore moneychanger rates all 22.65 now which is bad.

 

[thoughtzzz]

Wah!! you added alot of photos!!
It is not cheaper to pay by TWD? I pay using CC for the package and ended up paying 100 more due to the bad exchange rate. :<
Did you tour around outside of Taipei? Isnt it too last min to book the hotels only when you reach? I intending to tour gao xiong and qin jin nong chang~~~~
So when is your big day? Any bridal shop in mind already? BTW, did u take their gowns for AD and ROM?

 

[Lunamoon85]

it will depends on the exchange rate at the point when u visit taiwan
oh yah the 100+ extra which you paid due to bad exchange rate --> let Sherry know about that when u arrive, she will give you more photos as a result of that (that's what we did when we are there)..
I didnt tour outside taipei as we are only there for 7D6N, not enough to travel out.. if since you are going outside taipei, you shld book first to ensure availability then.
My AD is 05May next yr, I have taken 2 Na.Za gowns (which is different from my pre-wedding photoshoot gowns) for AD and ROM, therefore not engaging any local bridal shop.

 

[cheryl32]

$20 per piece is really cheap! those that i have seen says they got charge for between 30 - 50 per piece of additional photo... the thing is me & my hubby are not the bargaining kind of pple... scared tio scammed... T_T

Hi cheryl32, when are you going taipei? I'm intending to go ard end of April next year.
Hi Lunamoon85, that's great news...I shall bargain for more pics. ANW, did you buy NUBRA from gmarket or any cheap places or you buy from them?
NAZA offered me $1500 for 1 X ROM and 3 X AD gowns. Is your deal better?
My colleague had 6 gowns for phototaking while I only have 5. Intend to bargain when I am there. :>

 

[Lunamoon85]

Hi thoughtzz, for my case, my 2X AD gowns was foc in my contract/receipt at point of purchase during their roadshow. So you are going to buy 4 gowns @$1500 from Na.Za? it's good price compared to Singapore bridal shops here.
By the way I got my Nu-bra from Minoshe@$29. Hope this helps

 

[thoughtzzz]

Hi Lunamoon85,

Not buy. Jus renting....
Sounds like my deal is not so good...:<

 

[Lunamoon85]

Hi Thoughts,
guess you can still negotiate when you there for your photoshoot try talking to Sherry ( the boss). she is nice, able to negotiate.. because I know if you rent the white wedding gown in local bridal shop, it's at least $1000 for 1 pc...
