ROM Preparation (20 November 2010) -- Gallery Hotel

Many people asked why we arranged our ROM on a different day from our Actual Day Wedding, which is not too far away. We asked ourselves the same question too....whether this is worth the additional cost and effort but ultimately decided to go ahead with 20 Nov 2010 because this day marks the 10th year anniversary :) We thought this would really make it extra memorable by having our solemnisation on this day.

To be more in line with our character, we have been thinking of looking somewhere bright to host our ROM. We started looking for poolside venues but had some considerations like rainy season at the end of the year, elderly in the family etc. Finally we found the ideal place -- Gallery Hotel Zenden Restaurant.

Initially, we viewed Gallery's function rooms but they weren't the style we like. We were subsequently led to Zenden Restaurant for further discussion and was immediately won over by the bright, open space with full glass window.

We specially arranged for Juliana, the sale manager to negotiate the contract with us. She really made it a breeze to discuss and she was able to call th shots and make the necessary offer when it comes to wine, tables, complimentary room etc. She also gave good tips on food selection, decor etc.

Experience at Gallery was great :)
