Peach Garden @ Orchid Country Club

Its high time I stopped procrastinating and started on my wedding day entries. We had our food tasting on 19th March and changed a couple of items in the cold dish and the prawn dish. We had to top up for the change but it was a good thing that we went for the food tasting if not my guests would have had fried food overload. Some places have the option of forgoing the food tasting and using that table on the AD itself. We had one extra table that was not used on the AD so we went down 2 weeks for an advanced fathers day celebration.


I had pretty good reviews from my guests and seems that many loved the Braised Ee-Fu noodles. My uncle even asked for 2nd helpings. At wedding dinners, guests will remember the food more than anything so I am glad that they enjoyed the food. The only grouse I have is the layout of the restaurant. I initially planned for 2 projectors to be used but the VGA cable was not long enough so had to make do with 1 projector and guests who were at both ends of the restaurant had very restricted views. 

For the cold dish, we changed the chives roll, and Chilled Century Egg Terrine to Fresh Prawn Salad and Seafood Mango Roll

1 more month!!

Woah!! Where have the time went to? All of a sudden I am left with 1 more month till my wedding = 30 more days = 4 more weeks!! Oh Gosh!! I'm beginning to get the jitters just thinking of the impending date. I hope I don't miss out on any of the major stuffs that have to be done.

We met up with Rose, our event manager from Peach Garden last evening to finalise on the decos and also the number of tables and miscellaneous stuffs

When we first met up with Rose sometime last year to book the date, we were told that there was no themes and wedding favours for us to choose from. So it was a wonderful surprise for us when she told us that we had a choice for both items. They had 3 themes for us to choose from: Victorian (Lilac and Ivory), Oriental (Red and Ivory) and Garden (Gold/Garden Green and Ivory). We went with the Garden theme since it fitted into my wedding theme of Gold, Ivory and Brown. Decided on gold sashes for the VIP chairs and also the flower pedestals instead of the green ones. The flower pedestals and VIP centerpiece also had mini bird cages on them. For the wedding favours, we chose the oriental magnetic bottle cap openers and towels. 

Glad that we have some of the major stuffs confirmed. We are left with scourcing of the splitter for the projector, duties for Jiemeis and Xiongdis, and also choosing of our music for our 1st and 2nd march-in amoung other miscelleneous stuffs. 

Invitations have also been mailed out on yesterday. Left with those that will be hand delivered.
