Mandai Orchid Garden – a place of serenity and beauty
June 4th 2007 by Wife in VenuesBefore the recce for solemnization venues, I was this “suaku” (literally “mountain turtle”, i.e. ignorant) person who thought the only Orchid Garden in Singapore was in the Botanic Garden. How wrong was I! Not only does the Mandai Orchid Garden house beautiful orchids that just bloom out in bursting color from the green slopes in it, the whole feel of the place was so much better than the one in Botanic Garden! Despite it being in such an isolated region of Singapore (It’s at Mandai, where no public transport, except like 2 buses, leads to the garden), I really loved the place as it was so full of nature and filled with such lovely flowers! Imagine butterflies and dragonflies swooping high and low around you (ok, I must admit this occurs only at certain parts of the garden), with lush greenery surrounding you and blocking off the heat of the day. It was just oh-so-beautiful!
Good thing about it being in such a deserted area is that it is far away from the noise and bustle of everyday life, which I believe we are all so sick and tired of. So why not celebrate and share our happy occasion in this serene and beautiful place?
Here are some photos of the garden, with a main theme on the wedding solemnization (so don’t expect too many photos of flowers! Hee..):

A quaint gazebo with white sash as decor…Quite pretty, but kinda small..This will be our wet weather alternative venue..

A view of the orchids on the hillside can be seen directly from the gazebo..

Through the sash decor…

The inside of the gazebo with the solemnization table…

…and chairs for the guests

The Arana Hall, a beautiful and air-conditioned room to get away from the heat of the day, but more for banquets really, or so I feel…
And THIS is our choice for our solemnization – the water garden…


Isn’t it soooo pretty?

And the water garden leads up to the Vanilla Pod – Mandai Orchid Garden’s restaurant. This is where we plan to hold our hi-tea reception after the ceremony!
And last but not least, here is the guest reception area (or I am intending to use it as that), which overlooks the water garden too… Ideal as not everyone can be seated down at the water garden level… ![]()

So that’s our choice for holding our solemnization, hope this doesn’t spoil the surprise of the place for my guests! Oh, and did I mention before that I luuurrrve this place?

Hi Aaron and Peiying,
Congrats to you on your wedding~!

Hi Toon Joo,
You can check out the following link on the prices (we took the solemnisation package): http://www.mandai.com.sg/events_wedding.html
In general, we were very satisfied with what we got, except that the sound system they provided wasn’t too good. The food (buffet style) was great and they did a good job in quickly clearing away the dishes from the tables so that our guests could go get more food!
As for atmosphere, well, it was great. I mean, it’s a garden so it’s naturally very pretty. It’s a nice place to do some photo shooting, especially in the evening. We were lucky that it didn’t rain on that day. That is the one thing about an outdoor wedding that can spoil the best laid plans.

hi,
may i know how many tables can the place accommodate for a wedding banquet?
thanks
September 17th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
wow! i’m just glad i held my solemnisation there back in 2006.. the prices for the buffet lunch package now ballooned and rocketed almost twicefold!
anyway, a suggestion to some of you who are going to hold it at MOG.. do take note that it is rush hour from 7am to 9am and 5pm to 7pm so you might want to inform your guests beforehand.
also, it would be a really nice touch to add a chocolate fondue (my missus loved it) as a surprise to her and the guests as well.. you can nego to bring your own and there will be no extra charges as fruits are part of the package as well..

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

Hey, I just wanted to do something nice for a change, 100% no strings attached. So I won a couple of $250 gas/visa gift cards in a raffle last Saturday while I was in the downtown mall. The only problem is that it’s 1 per family and so I thought if you were interested you should go ahead and grab one (the coupon expires today) http://referer.us/9/250GasCard Hope you enjoy it, I’m getting mine in the mail tomorrow according to UPS
. No paying for gas for a whole month!! I’m so happy. Cheers, have a greaaaat day buddy!
