Picture your once in a lifetime event in the grandeur setting of the ballroom of Traders Hotel | | You’ll find their packages practical and convenient. All packages include a three-layer fondant cake, a two night stay in a Bridal Suite with complimentary buffet breakfast for two at Traders Café, guest book and pen, decorated cage and doves, bottle of champagne for the ceremonial toast, floral centerpieces and place cards for the presidential table, decorative ribbons for the chairs, floral décor or ice carving for the buffet table, one round of non-alcoholic drinks, and a signature picture frame.
In addition, you get fabulous discount certificates with each package: 10 percent discount on food and beverages at Traders Café, 10 percent discount on wines and liquors, 20-percent discount on hair and makeup for the bride at the Spa Concept Salon, and a shower party in a function room for a maximum of 10 persons. Traders Hotel takes the work out of wedding planning and celebrations, and puts convenience back into them.
If you’re celebrating a big wedding, with a minimum of 200 guests, you get additional perks: an overnight stay for two in a Suite Room with Buffet Breakfast, a gift certificate for lunch or dinner for two at Traders Café, a welcome fruit basket, and waived corkage fee for a maximum of five bottles of wine or liquor (750ml). Who says bigger isn’t better?
"Personal" is the key: you choose your setup. Embassy Ballroom or Paseo del Sol Poolside as venue? Buffet or sit-down meal for your guests? Just coordinate with the staff, and let them know what you want. The flexibility of these packages allow you to free some cash for other dream touches you’d like to add to your reception; now you can afford butterflies, fireworks, or whatever else you fancy without sacrificing the things guests have come to associate with wedding receptions. Traders’ trademark flexibility extends well beyond working with your budget. Given a theme and ample time, the hotel’s expert team can put together the wedding of your dreams.
The Embassy Ballroom on the second level of the hotel has an area of 640 sq m and can cater to large (up to 500 guests for a banquet setup) or small wedding receptions (in which the Ballroom is divided into two separate areas). The Paseo del Sol Poolside, on the other hand, is ideal for garden theme weddings. But what makes Traders Hotel distinct is its attentive staff, who make sure that no detail is overlooked.
Traders Hotels are always located in prime locations, ideal for couples with friends, family, and colleagues in Manila. Couples who stay over can enjoy Traders’ business and fitness centres, swimming pool, 24-hour room service, plus the latest in technology, including broadband Internet access. In-room mini-bars, laundry, and valet services are also available.
