Wedding Venue Confirmed: Marina Bay Sands

Last but not least, MBS!

Address: 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore 018972

In the midst of a desperate search for a wedding venue in Singapore, I chanced upon MBS' brochure while clearing my room. We actually went to check out their wedding show earlier in the year and liked it a lot but didn't think much about it because the price for Saturday was slightly out of our budget (that was before we decided to have 2 wedding receptions). And lo and behold, few months back we decided to have 2 separate receptions and the Singapore reception so happened to fall on a Sunday! Since Sunday's dinner price was within our budget, I quickly contacted MBS and made an arrangment for a discussion before deciding whether to sign the package.

Aih Kim, our wedding coordinator responded promptly and after meeting up with her, we made a few enquiries before signing up on the spot. We also chose the Simpor Junior Ballroom on the 4th floor with the reception area overlooking the promenade. Nice!

2015 Weekend Wedding Dinner:
Saturday- $1388/ $1588 ++ per table of 10 persons
Sunday- $1288/ $1588 ++ per table of 10 persons
  
Pros:
  • Awesome bridal suite (based on photos on their website haha)
  • Accessible via Promenade MRT
  • Good reception size, especially the 4th Level that overlooks the promenade
  • Arrangements for changing room to be very near the ballroom
  • Pillarless for all ballrooms
  • Flexible and prompt wedding coordinator
  • Acceptably nice themes
  • Wedding invitation cards includes printing
Cons:
  • Low ceiling
  • Require quite abit of walking from MRT to convention and from the hotel room
  • Expensive parking
  • Not many nice wedding favours to choose from
  • $8K for deposit
 
 
After signing up, they had a wedding show 2 months later, so we decided to go down and take a look at the venue again :)

 
 
So there you have it, our wedding venue have been selected. Awesome much! One more worry settled :D

  1. You are right, for everyone, wedding is presumably the greatest day of their life and for me, it truly is. For now, I am assisting my uncle for shortlisting couple of good and in-budget banquet halls in Chicago to host cousin’s wedding.
