The guest setting

I happen to have European Charm setting for Vista room. Hence, i have also put up the pictures below with an actual wedding as a reference to other brides.






Black/Red at Panaroma

The Panaroma is located on 24th storey beside the swimming pool. It is quite ideal if you wish to have a romantic poolside solemnisation.

The red carpet for the wedding couple.
This is an L shaped march in and there are some pillars in the room.


The stage settings


The VIP table setting. I like the idea of a joint VIP table of 12 for the wedding couple. And the petals on the table add a romantic touch to the the event.


The VIP seats also have roses adorning the chairs and wrapped in organza.


The table setting for the guests.


The oriental style menu

Table requirements:
Grand ballroom: min 30 - max 50 (min 40 tables for a saturday)
Vista Room: min 20 - max 25
Panorama Room: min 18 - max 24

The food
There are 2 menus to select from from wedding banquet dinner: Passion and Devotion.
Devotion is the pricier of the two and it is the only menu available on auspicious dates.

The hotel has changed its menu in June 09. Personally, i've not tasted the food for the wedding dinner but my significant other thinks that the food is commendable based on his recent experience at a banquet.

The bridal suite

The bedroom

The vanity room cum washroom

The living room

The suite is really huge. One of the biggest i've seen and very roomy. The decor is more inclined to a business feel.

Others

The list of wedding favours





This is the hotel that solitairebride has finally booked for her wedding.
The package compared to holiday inn atrium is more expensive but still more affordable as compared to her other preferred choice mandarin oriental. The package is also comprehensive with most of her requirements like wine/pretty decorations/nice suite.

Most importantly, she is able to fulfil her min tables requirement and the actual day that she want is available to her as well.

Do stay tune for other hotel reviews that will be posted up in the following months.

    Hi, when is your wedding? Is vista room march in narrow? Seems like the walk way is quite narrow and if the room is so long, wil the audience at the back able to see what is happening on the stage?

    Hi Eslynn,

    if i remember correctly, there is two lcd screens at both ends of the room. so in such instance it shouldn't be a problem.

    the march in is indeed narrow especially if wearing a huge ballgown.

    For me, its the size, price, availability and ambience and hilton fits the bill. I guess everyone has to weigh their pros and cons. There isn't alot of hotel ballrooms that cater to between 20 - 25 tables with crystal lightings. All the best in your search.

      Hi Yu Yan, the food is quite good for banquet fare. I took the crystal ballroom beside the grand ball room.

Panasonic steam oven NU-SC100WYPQ "Cutie" Product Review

By
I wanted to get weeks about it  I purchased this item from Tangs at SGD $399. They are having a promotion of discount SGD $50 if you spend SGD $500. So i top up with a vacuum tumbler and pyrex glass dish. After several months of using, here are my comments on this cutie steam oven. This is purely a steam oven with no microwave function. One of the rare oven with no microwave function.  I am ok with it as i steam fishes regularly and its a perfect addition of appliance. The other alternative is the miele steam oven and it is on offer at the same time for SGD $1600. The oven can be plugged to main power point as it is at 13 amp.  Summary: Here are some of my observations using the steam oven.  Buns Easy peasy for the early morning rush to work, put the char siew bao into the oven. Set it to 10 mins and you can steaming hot bun to eat for breakfast. Fish I steam fish majority of the time. It is super easy to use for steaming fish Vegetables Tr...

Kose Beauty Centre Facial Review (Isetan Scotts)

By
I was very very taken aback when i entered the unassuming beauty salon right in the heart of orchard. While the place is clean and design is simple, it was very sparsely furnished considering its brand name and in comparision with Yamano (the other japanese salon i went).  I entered the facial premises after i passed through the hair salon. What greeted me makes my jaw dropped even more, the room is bare. There is no wall partitions for privacy, in its place are curtains hung to separate the different beds. And i am able to see all the facial therapist and guests. Each therapist handles 2 guests both at the same time!!! From My session suppose to start at 3 pm since my therapist is also handling another customer, i whipped out my phone and start playing candy crush till my therapist is available at 3.30pm. The therapist started by cleaning my face and recommending the appropriate therapy for my skin. I was advised to do the  Whitening & Anti-ageing Treatment an...

Banquet -Parkroyal beach road (Wedding dinner review)

By
I attended a wedding in October 2013 at the Parkroyal beach road. Boy! I was in for a surprise. The hotel is newly renovated and refurbished to a very corporate and clean polished look. There is a huge area for reception. Even the exterior area is also revamped (i didn't manage to get pictures for outdoors). You can hold your ROM outdoors and have decorated to an outdoor garden setting. Yes the outdoor area is that huge! This place has changed so dramatically.  By comparison, a banquet held at the same location in 2010, see review here . There is alot more room since the wedding i attended is no longer at the other ballroom. The ceilings of the ballroom are tall, creating an illusion of space and comfort.See the ballroom with the backdrop. The photo below is where the bride and the groom walks down the aisle from the back. You are guaranteed a long long walk down the aisle. Romantic backdrop for the stage in romantic flowers display. Interestingly the cham...
