Professional event planners

When you choose a top Singapore hotel to host your wedding, their in-house managers know how to plan a wedding; sit down with your planner for an hour and you can discuss things like:

• Entertainment – The hotel has a working relationship with many local artists, you can browse their portfolio; they also have a top-rated resident DJ who can play your favourite genres. The entertainment can make or break a wedding party, so do choose carefully.
• Announcements/speeches – You need to decide who is going to speak and a timeline is created. A few wedding toasts are obviously on the menu and microphones are always ready. It makes sense to have a script to work to and the planner has experience in compiling shows.
• Theme/style – You may have a specific theme in mind, the manager can show you images of wedding parties to give you some ideas.
• Games/activities – Of course, the management will work with you to provide what you need for a few games. They also have stacks of ideas for games if you are stuck.
• Menu choice – They have a range of set menus and buffets, all reasonably priced. You also need to choose from a wine list. Click here to find out why travel insurance is important.
• Bar options – You might decide to settle the drinks bill at the end of the night or you might prefer to deposit an amount and guests pay for their own drinks when that is done. Some couples decide to ask their guests to buy their own alcoholic drinks and people are fine with this, as they understand the heavy expenses connected to weddings.
• Room hire – It is normal that there are guests who wish to stay overnight, so you should give your organiser an idea of numbers and types of rooms they require. They would usually offer discounted rates for suites from a wedding client and every little helps.
• Wedding videographer – The hotel would have an in-house wedding videographer/photographer whom you can use; prices are reasonable and the quality is excellent.

Once you have had a meeting with the hotel’s management, make sure they understand you want an all-inclusive quote. In the event some of your guests are interested in guided tours of Singapore, the hotel can arrange this on your behalf.

Choosing a venue for your wedding is not something to be rushed, start with a Google search to bring up a list of 5-star hotels and visit the ones you are interested in. Only when you have visited all of the venues on your shortlist, then you are able to make an informed decision. Compare venues, services and, of course, cost. If the venue specialises in weddings, they have all the resources you need for your event.

Once the wedding party is over and everyone is on their way home, you and your partner can start your honeymoon in Singapore, which is one of the best honeymoon destinations on the planet.
