Is it more worth it to get a bridal package- may not like all of the services, or get individual services that i can pick and choose whom to get, ensuring the quality!

Depends on what you need. I personally choose package as most of the stuff i need covered in the package! You really have to see what you need in order to choose. And usually package is cheaper and if you didn't plan and choose properly for ala-carte one, it can burn you!

A simple way is to visit a few bridal agencies, find the costs per package, then compare each of them.
While you are at each agency, you can give them a list of services that you like, and see if they can quote u a competitive price for the customised package.
It may not be cheaper. Packaged deals are usually cheaper, even if it comes with some services that you may not ask for, because packaged deals are earlier to handle, to sell, and to promote, hence economics of scale for them.
Individual customers may have a little bit of trouble to find individual services, but if you make the effort via Carousell, googling, and etc to combine a suite of services from different providers, yes you can find a good competitive pricing.
I got married not so long ago, and spent a huge amount of money on it. Looking back, the memories is quite worth it but then I come to realise even if i had saved money and done a simple wedding, the wedding would have been equally sweet for us too =)
Spend sensibly! The wedding dinner is the most non-memorable item for me ;)

Some bridal packages allow you to go ala-carte, so you may evaluate those, but ultimately the costs add up to quite a hefty amount. The more important thing, in my opinion, is remember not to top-up for your wedding photos, I personally think that's quite damaging to the wallet and also the photos are just kept stuck mostly under the bed. ;)

Hey there, congratulations!
For me and my fiancee, we decided to go ala-carte. Reason being is simply the preference of choosing what kind of style we want for AD vid & photo, pre-wedding shoot, gowns etc. It might be more expensive, but the trade off is you know that is what you want. There might be cases whereby you just have to accept what the bridal packages give and you might not like it later on. But bridal packages do give a one-stop solution for you so you don't have to think too much. Kinda like for a BTO, getting an ID (bridal package) or contractors (ala-carte).
