happy....The whole wedding thingy looks like it's making more headway now.
Last week we paid a visit to the restaurants that we would like to hold our wedding dinner for our family. HTB likes the one with a big reception area and it's in a hotel somemore. I prefer the one with a Shanghai theme but I do agree it has a very strange layout. But then again it's darn cool coz if we manage to make it up to 25 tables, we get the restaurant to ourselves with a 3 piece band and 2 live singers thrown in! If it's gonna be a family dinner only then it's really hard to squeeze out so many tables. Until now, we only manage to chalk up 15 tables for family.
One of the most ridiculous thing I heard from a restaurant I called up was that, for the time being, they are unable to take any reservations for less than 18 confirmed tables because they need to meet their 2008 revenue first, so only dinners with 18 tables and above can book first. Duh. Aren't we customers too??? Anyway from the restaurant visits, we conclude that we are still way too early for restaurants bookings. Most of them have no bookings for the month we are looking at and I think even the 2-3 months before too. So in the meantime we'll keep looking for a friends' venue before deciding on the restaurant. Who knows, maybe I get to go for the live band restaurant afterall if we can't find a separate venue for our friends. =D
