宴客慳錢方程式

find this article online...... i like 4 &6..haha


結婚擺酒的確是花費龐大,而又最考起新人,有人可以大出血,有人扣除成本後,還可以賺「人情」。其實婚宴過後總發現有些花費是不必的,所以新人作每項決定時都要慎重考慮,免得浪費金錢。以下是一些宴客慳錢秘訣:




  1. 越早預訂及平日擺酒,議價能力越高。



  2. 自助餐宴或雞尾酒會比中式酒席便宜,而酒樓酒席比酒店實惠。



  3. 邀請賓客時盡量少請親戚,減少闔府統請,因小朋友照樣佔位,但多數不給公價人情。



  4. 多邀請較富有或單身的朋友、有生意往來的客戶及上司,人情通常較多。



  5. 可找贊助人或公司,贊助酒席、佈置、花車、花球、酒水等。



  6. 超額派帖,選擇在平日舉行,地點較偏僻,務求做到禮到人不到。



  7. 中式酒席可選六道菜,連飯麵點心已有十道菜,只要讓賓人飽腹,他們不會介懷有多少道菜。



  8. 選擇經濟菜式,如乳豬全體改為乳豬拼盤,海鮮不要老鼠班要紅鮪。



  9. 預早詢問親友是否出席,為他們編定入座號,就會容易控制席數。



  10. 安排每席坐足12人,減少無謂席數。



  11. 多數婚宴酒席都附送多項優惠,如喜帖、場地布置、影音設備等,新人可物盡其用。



  12. 與婚宴場地商議可自備的酒水、生果、糖果、瓜子、啤牌、香煙等,以西餅代替席前粉麵,避免使用場地提供的。



  13. 從果欄、辦館購入多箱生果洋酒,較大型超市廉宜。



  14. 回禮利是不一定每人都派,口頭答謝就可以了。



  15. 婚宴後付款時,酒店一般不會要求小費,而酒樓則有收小費的慣例,通常約$50 至 $100一圍,但並非必要的,因為已支付加一服務費。

wed pic

Now we’re debating whether we should go hk to take wed pic
or Taiwan.  My friend sent me a website
and the price isn’t bad at all…. It’s like a package include everything…aww…
but still need to talk to my man before making any decision.  Honestly, some of them look very nice and the
package is better than the one in HK.. (coz in hk, they don’t give you a CD
after the photos…)



 



Well, of course if you want more pics, you have to pay more
but I mean…why not go to Taiwan if we gonna transfer the flight there anyway….that
is very excited, hehehe!



 



But one thing I am concern, I duno how to pick up the pictures
from Taiwan…. And I know nothing about Taiwan…(I never been there…)



 



Anyone knows someone who went back Taiwan from the states to
take wed pic?? I need more recommendation…

this news is freaky...

AN Italian woman who arrived late for
the Air France plane flight that crashed in the Atlantic last week has
been killed in a car accident.

Johanna Ganthaler, a pensioner from Bolzano-Bozen province, had been on
holiday in Brazil with her husband Kurt and missed Air France Flight
447 after turning up late at Rio de Janeiro airport on May 31, London's The Times reports.

All 228 people aboard lost their lives after the plane crashed into the Atlantic four hours into its flight to Paris.

The ANSA news agency reported that the couple had managed to pick up a flight from Rio the following day.

It said that Ms Ganthaler died when their car veered across a road in Kufstein, Austria, and swerved into an oncoming truck.

Her husband was seriously injured.

Movie movie

Last weekend we stayed at friend's house to watch a movie.  I don't usually watch horror movie but they had the mood for horror movie, so ok... we watched a movie called "walled in" ---  at first i thought it was pretty scary coz of the name and the story.. (well, obviously it was something related to some bodies being "walled" in) but anyway, it was ok at the beginning but then it was getting boring..and making no sense! i got fed up.... i hate movie when they have no sense at all....

and the night before, we watched a movie called "the international".  I wanted to see that movie because i like the actor and actress but eventually...i got so disappointed...i had no idea what they were talking about.  I know they were trying to trace some illegal acts with different countries but the story made no sense again.... i got fed up with movies.....

and last night, i glanced the movie "Defiance"...it was also crappy.... i am tired of crappy movies now..no wonder people don't go to see movie anymore.. i don't even want to waste my money on movies now!

but this weekend we're going to see "UP".  i guess it's a pretty good movie (at least that's what the critics said, haha!)

Cirque du soleil - Kooza

We went to this show last Saturday.  I can't use my word to express my excitement and enjoyment.  It was absolutely fabulous!!!! If i have to rate them, i think they're 9.999999/10....where's the 0.000001? it's not because of them.  It's the guy in front of me was tall enough to block my view..haha!

But anyway, we went to the show with another couple.  The weather was nice, and we got the tickets for $25 each... (the original price was $85 up)... Well, at first i thought my seat would be pretty far from the stage.. (coz it was at the middle but the last 2 row) but then because the tent was pretty small, so we weren't too far..it was just perfect!!

This show was about circus.  They had a lot of different scaryyyyy move.. (you know those typical circus move) but it was fun and exciting!! I wanna see it again... hahhahaha!! Plus, we were happy because of the cheap tickets...

One of the part in that show...hehehehe
