so you telling me 2000 years ago there are restuarants? Wedding at hotel for chinese is more for "facial" reasons than anything.

the regent singapore billed mr lee for the replacement of hotel items, which it claimed were damaged or had irremovable stains, including seat covers, carpeting and pillow cases.

he may have to declare bankrupt.

Surprised

Ito_^ SG

ditzy SG

16K includes the banquet bill also issit? Laughing

elindra SG

Going bankrupt over 16k? If he can afford to have his wedding at Regent, I don't think he will go bankrupt so easily.

mhcampboy SG

some ppl spend their life savings on weddings...

but then hor...too excited during wedding day until break all the hotel stuffs.. Laughing

ditzy SG

Let's do a breakdown of the bill step by step. Removing 10% service charge which is $1600, 5% gst at $800, cess at 2% which is $320. Effectively, the bill is only $13280. Not alot what. Laughing

dragg SG

according to the hotel GM, food and beverages, including wine, plus vomit, were strewn and/or staining the carpet and sofa.

all removable vomit and food stains were cleaned away but stains caused by the alcohol were not removable.

Surprised

what did they do that night?

dragg SG

sorry, i cant find the article online.

precipice SG

news reported six of his friends went to the suite.

they most probably got drunk.

elindra SG

There are red packets which should cover at least 70% of the cost of their wedding

Either that or they took a loan for their wedding dinner Rolling Eyes Then I can understand why they can go bankrupt

ditzy SG

Yesterday's newpaper, but it says $29000, not $16000. Laughing

valentinoo SG

in the first place i Think it sucks to have a wedding at hotel and then make the guests pay for it as hangbao. Laughing

then they looked down on those who organized weddings at void deck...but those couples at least doesnt depend on guests to pay hangbao, correct or not?

Wedding dinner at HDB flat void deck best. Do wat you like. Cement floor easily wash wif powerjet water gun.

newcomer SG

wedding at void deck maciam low class leh...

valentinoo SG

having a grand wedding at hotel but asking the guests to pay for it not low class ah?

if u do it at hotel but dont expect hangbao then that is high class

for wedding at hotels, guests also scared to come..coz u pay for what u eat, then some more cannot accomadate lots of ppl

for void decks its usually 11-5pm..anytime can come..hangbao also no one forced to give...u eat u bless the couple then u go..no stress Laughing
