Wedding Venue Finalise!!!

Yeah!! Our wedding venue was finally decided, after much consideration. We went down to Intercon Hotel yesterday evening to meet up with the wedding coordinator, plus to view the ballroom. I was very impressed with the ballroom! Absolutely perfect! No pillars, spacious, enchanting chandeliers, long straight march-in, mesmerizing stage setup, beautiful foyer for the reception whereby we intend to hold the solemnisation there too (at NO extra cost!). I must say it is indeed the perfect venue for a grand, classy wedding dinner. Haha, Intercon has to pay me advertising fees liew for promoting ya. But I'm so happy about it. Maybe I'm easily contented... but there seems nuthing I dislike about the place... at least for the moment, hee... I want to have a dreamy wedding, lolzzz.... moi a typical pisces. ;p

There was going to be a wedding dinner held yesterday night and the theme they chose was "Whimsical Magic". There was another theme which really catches baobei & mine's attention, named "Opulent Desire", oOh... just the sound of it is really sexy & classy. This theme has black table cloth and red items. But alas! After consulting baobei's father last night, he objected to it, as black colour deems to be unauspicious in chinese wedding.... Haiz... there goes our choice. Initially still think can have a really bold theme, as both of us were really sick of the usual white and plain setup of most weddings lor... wanted to have something special since its once in a lifetime event. But then.... we decided to compromise so as to respect the elderly wishes. Afterall, marriage is not only about ourselves. Its also about our family & making everyone else happy. Thus, most likely we will choose the theme "Whimsical Magic", as the other 2 themes we don't really like. One was "Charming Elegance" which was the type we loathe, all white & plain. The other was "Oriental Splendour" which was very red red, cheena kind, and does not suit our liking either.
So, this was our latest update of the wedding prep. We will be going down to the BOWS wedding fair held @ Bugis from 4-6 January 2008, which is like next friday! Ciao!
