This is the time when I truly understand terms that were being used frequently in the property market like COV (cash over valuation), BTO (Build To Order), Resale and the different grants available.
We took some brochures home for further reading and were told to apply for flats through the HDB website when they open resale flats and BTOs for ballioting.
Next, we embarked on our first recce trip to source for suitable ROM locations.
First stop: Labrador Park
It was a nice coincidence that they were in the midst of preparing for a solemnisation at the venue and we mananged to sneak in for some photo shoots.

The reception area
The table settings and decor of the venue
The solemnisation is held by the pool side
The solemnisation will take place in this beautiful glass house that seems to sit in the pool
A closer look at the glass house reveals that it can hold up to 20 guests
It's good that the glass house is air conditioned
A bird's eye view of the venue
Verdict: A very beautiful garden venue for solemnisation but the hot weather is a killer. It does not seem to have a wet weather programme, even if it does, the marquee is going to spoil the beauty of the venue.
Not sure how it will look like in the evening but from the look of it, I do not see any lightings around the place.
We emailed the contact person from National Parks, wanting to go down for a site visit and to discuss in further details but there was not any reply. This is a good enough reason to strike this venue off our list.
Remind me to tell you about my experience with Labrador Park.
