I don't understand why a m&d wedding would cost $12k, even after factoring in profit for the wedding planner.

The venue, the HDB void deck, is free. The wedding decor has been recycled for the countless time, so the cost is practically nil by now. The food, usually briyani, curry dishes, bandung, m&d kueh, soft drinks, are cheap stuff unlike chink's seafood dishes. m&d weddings usually don't have alcohol, and if they do, it is usually cheap beers. m&d wedding singers are usually cheap, given that it is their part time jobs.

I would put the cost of a m&d wedding about $3k to $4k. Even factoring in profits, paying $6k would suffice. Paying $12k for a m&d wedding is simply outrageous.

You stuck in time...the m&ds these day have moves ahead...no longer you get that glass of bandung, one plate of briyani...either a live band or just play from cassettes or CD's or even Karaoke...nowadays very atas...I suggest you go take a look at the Malay Wedding Event Hall near to Joo Chiat CC along Joo Chiat Road...get some education...& while you are there...walk to " little Saigon or Hanoi"...where the Vietcongs would want to bring you upstairs for some "pho".

Don't be a twit. How many can the rental for HDB void deck cost as compared to a four to five star hotel that most chinks use for their wedding dinners?

 

[glockman]

My stag night cost more than that

I am not surprised. For my first wedding, our dinner attire and shoes alone cost more than that. I spent a little less for my second wedding dinner.

 

[syed putra]

A malay need only two witnesses to seal a marriage ceremony. All the " kenduri" and music is unnecessary.

Not to mention they invite cina kawan... will get 20 bucks ang pow ...if own m&d relatives n kawan go...will bring the whole chain gang and give 10 bucks..for the whole gang hor. Cina go at most 1 or 2 person..and more people ang pow bigger ..just a few cina going will cover the whole wedding...

 

[swimorsink]

A few years back I went to a Malay wedding and gave $2 ang pow and the couple thanked me profusely because it was the second highest amount. The only person who gave more than me had given $2.50.

 

[sweetiepie]

KNN if human are more honest and don't hold so much pride best is send a rsvp invites and give guest tick the amount they intend to give KNN if not just don't expect guest ang pow for the wedding cost they are 2 unrelated items KNN
