Chunky Monkey 2 Report post Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) That's fab news already at the start of the year!Sure!Oh yes, about the stagnant ang bao money ... it's really sad isn't it? I hear the market rate for a 5 star hotel banquet is about $100 per head these days. Is it really true?When I got married, it was $150 per head (only 150 pax at my wedding. DH liked a cozy wedding so that we could mingle with all our guests. And guess what my mother did, to make sure she got her ang baos (according to customs, we had to give her friends' ang baos to her) ... she hinted to all her friends that the wedding was expensive and was not shy to mention the cost per head. Something that I wouldn't do, but my mother really meant business. Edited January 2, 2008 by Chunky Monkey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something that I wouldn't do, but my mother really meant business.Oh yes, definately not too bad for the start of the year. Regarding the stagnant ang bao money, its worse than it seems. I just got off the phone with a friend, someone gave supermarket vouchers expiring in the next 2 days! Another gave $20.00. Its really sad but 100 is really to just break even. Yes, according to customs, typically its to the bride's family. WOW.. your mum is really one heck of a hard driver. lol... I guess i really must start tell ppl how many tables I'm giving away to pressure some ang baos back.. Had to get this nice guestbook for the wedding in case its sold out. Check out the hot stamped floral printLast 2 cushions from Robinsons Sale... Love the baroque design (velvet)Picture of my bed with a new bed sheet / 2 pillow case/ 1 boster case/ 1 duvet for only $99.00 Close up picture of my 12.90 sheep that my friend bought for me for xmas.. lol.. i'm a sucker for cutesy sheeps.. explains why Serta was always a sure buy.. lol.. have to keep it safe from my silky though..

Chunky Monkey 2 Report post Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) Well .... my mother refused to invite some of our cheapskate relatives! Seriously. She was really not prepared to lose her ang pao money! LOL!Your wedding guest book is lovely. The hot stamping is really nice.And your black velvet cushions with the baroque design, are strong contrasts.

Phantom 1 Report post Posted January 3, 2008 lol chunky, it really seems that your mum is one that really drives a hard bargain.. heh heh.. thanks for the comments on the wedding guest book. We just love the floral designs on it. the black velvet cushions are great. i took 1 from the display and another one under the display cabinet.. turns out they were the last two on sale..if budget permits, i'd love to get those lovely lounge chairs/ recliners that they have at iwannagohome.
