Comparison of Bridal Studios

As mentioned in my previous post, I have shortlisted 5; no in fact it was 6 bridal studios (i.e. La Belle Couture, My Bridal Room, Rico A Mono, Digio Bridal, Sophia Wedding and Bridal Affairs) for Sam & my wedding.
 
With the list of available bridal studios (ranges from SG, Malaysia, Taiwan and Korea based) to choose from, I don’t think it is possible to visit each and every studios to check out on their packages.  I kid you not; visiting bridal studios can be exciting but tiring at the same time. 

You will easily spend at least 2hrs in the studio, trying their gowns; checking out their photography skills (if you are planning to take up their full package inclusive of pre-wedding shoot) and discussing on the available packages the studios offer that suit your needs etcc. Hence, it is only through recommendations and by reading reviews from wedding forums that you picked up the top 5 which catches your attention.
In this entry, I will state the package details (inclusive of pre-wedding shoot) offer to me during my visit to their studios (i.e rates are quoted during first half of 2014). 
 
Reviews: Honestly, all the coordinators I met up with are really pleasant and friendly. None of them are pushy in hard-selling their packages, which is one of the deciding factors that I look out for in choosing the desired bridal studios.
In addition, I got to try at least 3 gowns (except for Sophia Wedding) before we sat down & discuss on the different types of packages that is available.

Hope below information is useful for newly engaged couples out there :)
