I concur. So far, we just want to do a simple wedding, ie, some hotel in Subang Jaya. Photography and videography will be done by my cousins and friends.

Invitation cards by my friend's company, coz he give me "good price."

Entertaintment and emcee duties goes to my friends.  icon_idea.gif

Bride and groom dress from some place in Jalan Ipoh coz its "affordable."  laugh.gif

Honeymoon we have decided to go to Italy.  laugh.gif

Should have done it before GST.  doh.gif

But nevermind la. Love is eternal and love can wait. Pokai a bit won't hurt (much).  laugh.gif

thanks 4 the thread here laugh.gif rclxms.gif

being singles working less than 3k salary 4 2 years already JB town i am planning 30k wedding JB town and 10k honeymoon in the future

i want 2 be the few who can open wedding day 4 less

i and hopefully my future spouse and my future in laws are the type who does not like splurging over 50k or even 100k just 4 1 day ceremony alone only

i also want 2 be the few that host buffet dinner only instead of restaurant like those malay weddings type

i just find chinese restaurant type dinner is way over rated and more 2 mark up profit scheme than 2 really celebrate the wedding laugh.gif doh.gif

these are one of the factors why so many chinese here refused 2 get married besides being obsessive career driven life doh.gif rclxub.gif unlike malays mostly as i tend 2 get 15 malay friend invites more than 5 chinese friend invites on average per year YIKES

Hi there! I`m already married. It was in May. We are really love this month! smile.gif  We had outdoor wedding, it was perfectly. My wife found a very interesting site with huge number of tips, ideas and more usefull things for a budget wedding click here We had a small and cozy wedding with guest list about 20 - 25 close friends. I liked it, I felt very comfortable. We had some cocktail party near pool. =) All guests really enjoyed it. The next day we went on a honeymoon trip. It was the best wedding (I think). I recommend you!

I see, mine is 35 tables so there's no extra charge and they threw in FOC food tasting 10pax for me.

You called LYL ? Try Mutiara Palace. They were open to negotiation.
I heard from Kepong restaurants are good too.

Princessgalaria,

I really amazed by your research. I went to Jaya Palace survey the place,do you need to share the restaurant with others since the places can serve up to 80 tables?

The captain said most probably i need to share hall with people since i have less table....i worry the sharing environment will spoil my live band.

Usually Jaya Palace you do need to share with others, Jaya is the Menara LYL one right?
Unless those are the dates that no one picks.

I picked Mutiara palace as the capacity is only 50+ to 60 max and I booked first, so the main hall is mine. Unless someone else want a smaller wedding like 20+ then they will release the other half with my confirmation that I have less than 35 tables. After committing 35 tables I can't reduce them anymore. Currently I said 30-35, so finger crossed that no one wants the smaller hall bcos their recep would be right behind and doesn't look good at all. So in all, good to plan early smile.gif

Hmm, not many good ones available in Klang Valley, after much research the good ones with decent food usually accommodate up to 40up tables. Either your wedding is so big that you take everything, or you pick a date where no one will get married tongue.gif
Honestly I don't like sharing with others at all, makes the reception so messy. I opted for a smaller place and hoping that no one picks the same date, and if they do, 20+ tables is too small for them.

Have you considered Oriental Pavilion at Jaya 33? They have a closed private section for around 10+ tables if I am not mistaken. Can go check it out.

Cheers..... icon_rolleyes.gif

This I'm really particular with, especially MUA, photographer and videographer on actual day because there will not be a take two for all these.
I picked Grace Wang, as I prefer airbrush which gives a much better finishing. I would say that kind of price is quite decent based on all the quotations I've obtained so far. There's 800 - 1k if you can accept the quality that they deliver since they're still kinda new in the industry.

I'm paying RM1300 for one morning and one night makeup with airbrush and the rest of the standard stuffs included. No extra charges for trial.
Some charge cheap but asked for RM250 for trial session. You gotta book her like much ahead because she's really hot in demand.

Listed as of of the top MUA here

This whole list here is simplified version and for reference only. Depends solely on your parents and also the girl's side parents on what they are asking for.
Yes usually, both side of the parents will sit down and discuss but I didn't do so, just my hubby vs my family because there's a long story behind and no point letting a person just to ruin our marriage. Kinda deemed disrespectful to the bride if the groom's family don't even bother to come out to discuss things in detailed but lucky enough that my parents are open and cincai.

Things you discuss are like
1. Pin Kam, how much is the bride's family asking for
2. How many tables are you giving for the banquet (some ppl give a huge sum of pin kam then lesser tables, vice versa)
3. During GDL what are the things that must be included
4. Selection of date to get married, when to do GDL, bedding called an chuang
I guess that's all? Depends on both family most of the time.
