Oasis Manila

Fellow Oasis brides, may Grand Food Tasting daw yung Hizon's sa Oasis on Feb 2. 

We had a food tasting with Hizon's before. They weren't that accommodating. Sayang, for a brand so well-known, we were expecting much more from the staff and food

[switan9el]

Hi sis au_chic, ganyan yung experience namin sa Josiah's. nung unang GFT namin sknla, iniwan ba naman kami nung AE na kausap namin antagal namin naghintay more than 30mins, hindi na kami binalikan kaya umalis nalang kami, siguro kasi sa isip niya hindi pa naman kami decided ibook sila. pero maskina hindi dapat ganun dba.. hehe

We're hoping na ok yung AE na makakausap namin sa Hizon's GFT on Sunday. Yung AE na kausap ko during bridal fair, inaccomodate naman kami maayos, she even texted me few days after if we wanted magfoodtasting she can arrange a special food tasting for us daw.

ayun so i think depende rin talaga.. hehe

sis la_pinay, im also not aware kung sa Oasis magcoconfirm regarding caterer, etc. Since pupunta naman kami dun sa Oasis, i will ask Ms Jamie nalang about those para clear. Kaya siguro hindi na nila namention yun kasi understood na package yung kinuha natin sa Oasis, therefore dapat sakanila din tayo magconfirm.. parang ganun siguro

[chinitaida]

kakatawa nga e i was the one who does all the questioning then tsaka sasagot. So tama nga, one has to ask muna then you get the answer you need. I asked her also, (since i was the one who texted her about the FT), ako ba tatawag sa inyo sa sched ng FT or sasabihan mo ako? She answered, kaya nga mam db nitext ko sayo na sa feb 2 may FT? Geez it was when i texted her tsaka nagreply. haha so negative naman talaga

anyway, anyone of you has or had a candy buffet set-up?

[mikaidg5]

hi, sino po ang pinaka-okay na kontakin directly sa Oasis for initial inquiry? Do they allow yung biglaan lang na occular or do we need to schedule an appointment pa?

[switan9el]

^ haha bakit ganun siya magreply... weird.. si Ms Jamie, siya yung nagtetext sakin palagi kung may FT scheds. taga confirm lang kami kung makakapunta kami or not.

sis, we plan to have candy buffet setup pero hindi pa final.

[chinitaida]

ayan, syempre diba si jamie and tinawagan ko haha may procedure daw pala yun.forward nya concern ko sa admin. then she asked yun reason why i wanted to change my AE. Then ayun kay Jamie ko pa nalaman kanina may FT rin KUsina ni Kambal sa Feb 1. Ayos db? hindi ko alam. Then sabi rin nya na since GFT sa HIzons sa sunday, better na maaga raw pumunta like 10am.

I am wishing na i get Jamie or basta a change in AE would be better.

Yun candy buffet, i'm wondering lang kasi san yun set-up if ever sa orchard since maliit space rin sa taas kasi

si Ms.Jamie din AE namin! Goodluck sis! Sana makuha mo sya as your AE. Sino supplier nyo ng candy buffet? Hmmm baka sa labas ng Orchard (entrance/hallway) pede siguro.

[chinitaida]

sis cha_ching, ayun na. si jamie na new AE ko (since i requested her). SI Melody ( i think the owner) yun tumawag after i sent an email sabihan raw nya si Jamie. Valid naman daw kasi reasons ko. I feel relieved!

Anyway candy buffet, check mo out si periwinkle and lace and si onesweetdayph.

Si onesweetdayph kasi i saw their set-up sa Marriott. As in maganda and masasarap yun candies. Nagulat nga ako may M&ms pa plain and peanut haha

[cha_ching]

  yey congrats sis chinitaida! I-che-check ko yan sis...thanks! happy preps!

[switan9el]

^ congrats sis!

For candy buffet setup baka sa coordinator ko nalang ipagawa.. isa sa freebies nila yun, ako nalang bibili ng candies & chocolates na gusto kong ipalagay dun.

[au_chic]

Hi Sis,

Yun nga din sabi coordinator ko. pero hindi [textspeak!] ako mapakali eh! haaay.. kelan wedding mo sis? TIA

[mikaidg5]

thanks sis!

[she1s2bhappy]

we booked Orchard. i hope it's not too cram pag lumobo ang guests to 200 

[andee_gurl]

^sis I will be honest with you, kasi option din namin orchard before. Initial count was 150 guests pero we didn't choose orchard kasi parang masikip since may band kami and flip books so we ended up booking Verandah. Siguro if you can limit your guests to 130-150 at the most ok sya. Though Jamie our AE said kasya naman daw at nag FT daw Hizons before 200 guests daw oks naman daw.

[she1s2bhappy]

^hi andee, initial # of guests namin is 150. kaya lang hindi ko alam if madadagdagan. we don't intend to hire a band and yung included na photobooth sa package lang ang kukuhain namin.

fully booked na kasi verandah and pavillion sa wedding date namin so we booked orchard. will manage the guestlist na lang to keep it at 150.

thanks sis!

thanks sis!

same dilemma tayo sis hehe. booked orchard and max ko talaga is 150 guests dahil ayoko maging masikip un place. kind of worried lang ako kasi may strings ako (quartet), l/s and mobile bar pa. sana maging ok naman set up.

[she1s2bhappy]

^hi sis, nakapili na kayo ng caterer? nung nagpunta kami sa oasis sakto may FT ang kusina ni kambal. nagustuhan naman ni h2b and parents yung food na niserve nila. basic styling nila looks neat. if iuupgrade yung centerpiece additional 400 pesos and above per table depending sa set-up.

sabi ng dad ok lang kahit hindi na iupgrade yung centerpiece, yung sa couples area na lang since dun magpapapicture.
