wedding woes...

yes i know it's a work day so what the hell am i doing, blogging, when i should be working? well.. i dunno.. i just have to let it out...

so the wedding's about 6 months away and i have it all planned out, in my head, of course... just waiting for the little steps to slowly take place.

having alot of headaches with the venue and i honestly dunno if i should laugh or cry... snippet of conversations with them are as follows:

me: hi, i'll like to enquire about wedding packages and rental charges for chijmes. i want to do it at the lawn.

chijmes: oh, we don't normally do weddings so no packages for the lawn. maybe you can check with chijmes hall as they have more wedding packages there.

me: oh! i can check with chijmes hall and still use the lawn for my wedding?

chijmes: no, have to use the hall if you are taking their package, but the lawn can be used for cocktail receptions.

me: i don't want to use the hall, i only want the lawn.

chijmes: but chijmes hall has the packages

me: but if i call chijmes hall, i have to use the hall rite? i don't want the hall, i want the lawn.

chijmes: oh, but we don't normally do weddings...

me: do you do events there? i've seen events on the lawn.

chijmes: yes, we've done events... but not weddings coz the hall does more of it, so better to check with the hall..

me:.... (trying not to scream) ... ya, but i want the lawn, not the hall... and it's just like any event. rite???????

(there's more.. i'm too tired to type it all out)

me: hi, yes you were suppose to get back to me about a month ago on the catering package

carnivore: yes, i'm so sorry... was waiting for chijmes to revert.

me: yes, we've spoken to them, we'll use the walkway as well, i just need a quote from you and need to know how many people i can fit so i can plan my guestlist.

carnivore: okay... (gives me details of the package). you can actually also get another caterer to do the food and have them book the carving station from us. because.. it can be quite costly, and coz our kitchen is actually pretty far, it's near the carpark of chijmes, so if it rains, the food might be late.

me: (speechless)
