Wedding 101: Wedding planners (Kuching/Sibu)

*Updated: 25 July 2014*

*Hi, I am preparing for wedding on 09/09/2014 and I'll be sharing my story/ useful info/tips on my little space here. Do check under label 'Wedding 101' for more wedding prep info.

 =)*





Wedding Planners - Are they necessary?



Well it depends.




Tip # 1: If you are working abroad and having your wedding reception elsewhere or;

If you have tight schedule or;
If you are looking at 60+ tables on your wedding reception.
Chances are, you'll need one. 
(Of course, there are a lot more reasons click here to read more)


Yes, you can survive without one but you do need to bear with the stress of doing a DIY wedding esp when the date draws closer.



For me, I know from the beginning, I'll certainly be hiring one cause:



a) I got a house reno, a ROM and wedding dinner to prepare and I only have a pair of hands.



b) I heard a lot of stories about how relatives likes to add unnecessary stress to the couple by telling them what to do - meh~~~~Thank you Aunties, but I'd rather have someone professional to provide these advice.



c) Most importantly, I know my dad very gan cheong about my wedding. So my Wedding Planner is the perfect person to calm him down and assure him that things will be fine. 



LOL! Smart leh~? Of course mah, must have strategies wan hahahahah!

Tip #3: I can't emphasize enough that though the quotation (Rm 2500 - 5000) does play a part in deciding which Wedding Planner to hire, I think it's more important to see how your wedding planner can work closely with you to plan your wedding.



Another good advice leh~ Hehe I think so too.



Okay, that's all for now.

If you need a hand, or have further info to share, just drop me a line! ^^ Thanks!

      Hi Judy,

      In short, no, they don't have their own photographer/videographer. but having said that, wedding planners have HEAPS OF CONTACTS from F & B operators, Emcees to photographers, and it's their job to source the right contact based on your needs.

      So communication with your wedding planner is very important. Feel free to let them know what your needs are. :) And they will move from there.

      Hope this helps. Feel free to email me if you have further questions: mingfanggoh@gmail.com

Confinement Lady in Kuching

Last updated: 14.05.2019 I thought my blog is pretty much 'dead'. But when I saw this post appearing in a mommy group, I was surprised to see the number of clicks on this post! I am so sorry for not updating this, being a mommy to a 2-year-old is just overwhelming. Anyway, I am going to clean up and tidy up this post: Today! Part 1: There are a few things I need to clarify: 1) How the CL got into this list? I compiled the list when I was pregnant in 2015 and I search through the CL recommendations in mommy group, which means, at least ONE MOMMY recommended the CL that's how they got into this list. 2) How realiable are the recommendations? That, you need to find out yourself through interviewing the CL and asking on groups/friends for reviews because I don't know the relationship of the mommy who recommended the CL (could it be  someone who had hired the CL? or  neighbour of a CL? or  the daughter of a CL? okay, maybe overthinking, but please find out...
