Wedding At The Legends

I just attended a wedding last saturday at The Legends. They really have nice and cool ambience but I would say this place is a little bit hot even though it was installed with many fans. The plus points of this place is the ambience and food. The food portion was really big. Although my table only sat 9 persons but all of us had at least 2 servings of shark fins and some even had 3 servings. However, this place is quite out of the way which can be a concern for many elderly and those people who don't drive because they may not go due to the location. This was what happened during the wedding. Anyway, below are some of the pictures that I took during the wedding. Enjoy! :)

Hainanese Delight

Here is a cheap found where you can enjoy nice food in an airconditioner area in Cityhall. Everything are priced so cheap. This authentic Hainanese restaurant is located opposite St Andrew's Cathedral church, some where beside breadtalk and the gramophone. This place look like a kopitiam with aircon but to find this kind of place in cityhall is quite rare. :)

It was my first time here and I specially like their Chicken rice. The rest are just quite normal to me. Those of you who want to look out for cheap haunt and nice authentic chicken rice can try this Hainanese Delight at stamford road. Anyway, this place is free from GST and service charge. :)

House Special Pork Chop (I don't really like this dish, too dry)

Holiday Inn Atrium Wedding Show 2008

I just attended a wedding show at Holiday Inn Atrium. I would say the perks they are offering are quite attractive.

Additional perks like:
- $2500 rebate for those who signed up on the wedding show
- Free flow of beer
- Waiver of corkage charge for duty paid and sealed hard liquor
- Complimentary food tasting for 10 persons.


1 table is $788nett for weekend / $688 nett for weekdays (Price for 2009)

Although they do not have complimentary wine per confirmed table, I still find it quite worth it because $2500 is considered better than giving away free wine per confirmed table(after my own calculation). The friendly wedding coordinator was willing to have the corkage charge waived for wines that I brought in for the actual day, which mean if I have 40 tables confirmed, I can bring in my own 40 bottles of wines free of corkage. After that any additional bottles will have corkage charges. If you buy from the hotel, it would be at $21.35 per bottle.

Food was prepared by Hong Kong Chefs from Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant. The food was quite nice when i tried at the wedding show but I am not sure about if the standard remains the same on the actual day. Best of all, their food menu include abalone.

I wanted very much to confirm the wedding banquet with them but my wedding may exceed 46 tables so it can be a big risk to us. For those of you who have less than 46 tables may consider them if you only have a budget of around $800 especially year 2009, finding a good hotel around this price is quite tough. :)

Novotel Clarke Quay Bridal Suite

I just attended a wedding at Novotel Clarke Quay last friday. What I liked the most about this hotel was their friendly and dedicated service. I didn't manage to take many pictures but some of the pictures at the bridal suite. The bridal suite was big and nicely decorated with flowers petals every where. Here are some of the pictures to share.
