We did our ROM (Register of Marriage) on 26 Jan 2013 which is also Mr.Ng's bday :) . Actually we would like to choose 25 Dec as that's our anniversary but heard that the restaurant is usually fully booked and hard to find a solemnizer due to holiday.
I only have like half year to prepare everything since he proposed on May 2012. I choose no bridal and more towards DIY and Budget Bride and We DID it Yeayy... :)
Before we set any budget, we did the market research first. Asking around our family and friends.
Second, went to the wedding fair to do some price comparison.
Lastly, we set own budget on how much we were willing to spend on our wedding day.
For my case, as I mention before I didn't use any bridal for my both wedding banquets. My sweet Mr.Ng bought all my wedding dresses and evening gowns (so sweet of him). Of course, before I make that decision, I had done my homework n discussed with him.
Here's the details of ROM:
1. Venue
For morning solemnize : Outdoor of Peony Jade Clark Quay
ROM banquet : Peony Jade Clark Quay
reason: we love the foods and the venue, easy to access and have an oriental tastes.
2. - Attire : Own attires
Bride's gown: Vera Wang VW35101
Groom's suit: Made-to-measure in Bangkok
- Ring : Made-to-measure by my lovely daddy :)
- Bouquet : DIY by my talented sis-in-law
- Wedding Accessories : DIY by my talented sister - Beauteous Swarovski
3. Solemnizer : Dr Phua Tan Tee
I like the way he solemnised our wedding...I cried a lot...so touched with his words (tho my photographer told me Dr Phua will use the same speech whenever he do a solemnise, but still I like him and super recommended :) ) FYI, you need to make an advanced invitation for him, like 3 mths before your ROM cause he is quite famous in wedding forum as a recommended solemnizer.
4. Witness: Our both father
Because I do admire and respect my father a lot and I want him to involve in my biggest and most important day of my life. Always daddy's little girl :D
5. MUA: Ms. Lizza Octaviana Cheow
She is a lovely and beautiful MUA. I knew her from my sis-in-law. I love her morning make-up, cause the night time a lil bit too aunty (that's what my friends told me huhuhu but still love her make-up)
6. Nail: Ms. Ferty Law
My lovely friend who is also a talented MUA. Feel free to contact her as your MUA or manicurist
7. Photographer: Moments Inc
A super humble and professional photographer. Love to work with him for both our wedding banquets. In future, we will still going to use his services to capture our lil family's potraits. Super recommended photographer :)
8. Master Ceremony : Adi's good friend (Mr. Ronald Chew and Ms. Denise Aw)
Event Organizer and gangs : My BFF - Ms. Indahwaty Seah (leader), Ms. Widiana Ng (came from HK for us), Ms. Silvia Leonardi (came from Sydney), Ms Evelyn Lim, Ms Jessica Viona (came from Jakarta)
They all are not an expert in this field but surprise surprise....They really knew how to handle everything and did it professionally.... BRAVO :)
9. Accommodation : Swissôtel Merchant Court
Because it is near to our ROM venue and love the way they upgraded our room and how they celebrated our wedding and Adi's birthday by giving us some surprises.

ReplyDeleteI've recently booked the poney jade outdoor solmenization at clarke quay for my ROM too! Can I ask do you remember what time was your ceremony? I was afraid that it might be too hot, do you remember how did yours went? I'm planning to hold it at 11:30am but afraid that it might be too hot. ><.
