Fernbrook Gardens

[NikkiV]

hi everyone! I'm considering fernbrooke/palazzo verde for my December 2017 wedding. Any feedback about the customer service of the "new management"? Thanks!

[ellaenchanted17]

Hi nikkiv, 2017 bride din ako. I think mas okay management ngayon kasi before nung fernbrook pa lang siya lagi ako nag iinquire hindi ako nirereplyan  inisip ko na lang na baka dahil 2017 pa ako kaya deadma pero after nila mag change ng name nag inquire ulit ako then nag reply agad.

[NikkiV]

thanks for the feedback sis ellaenchanted17! sige will schedule a visit there one of these days. excited!!

Need pa ba mag upgrade ng lights and floral arrangements or enough na yung basic?

[kbarbie]

Hi, Im a newbie here.. Ask ko lang about venues sa Fernbrook.. which is better, Victorian 1 or Byzantine 2 for 150 guests? Overseas bride din kasi ako and and hirap mag decide… Nakikibasa lang din ako sa reviews ditto sa GT.

and lastly.. anyone po na nag attend ng bridal fair sa Megamall ngayong weekend, Nov 20-22? Kasali po ba and fern brook? Kasi I will ask my sister to join the fair para malaman namin ang prices etc..

Thanks po.

[ellaenchanted17]

Hi sis lalala00, actually yan din ang question ko. Sa lights siguro depende sa time ng reception mo, for me baka ipa upgrade namin since evening reception kami and sa flowers naman if gusto mo ng simple lang okay na yung basic.

@lalala00 I suggest you upgrade your lights. Floral arrangement sa chapel, I definitely recommend Forget Me Knot (accredited sila). Di nila tinipid yung flowers promise! Flowers sa reception depende sa caterer pero yung ibang flowers mo sa Chapel pwede ilipat sa reception.


@kbarbie Victorian 1 para malaki space sa labas for cocktails.

Hi sis jonahtorres!  How was Hannah?  She's also our AE.  We were previously with another AE kaso it didn't work well (long story) for us kaya I requested to change our AE & they assigned Hannah.

[jonahtorres]

@rienny25 Hannah is very nice and accommodating. Inassist nya ako sa lahat ng inquiries ko about the venue and church. She even helped me clarify some requirements sa Diocese of Paranaque. 

[lalala00]

Hi sis jonahtorres! thanks sige consider ko sila

Pahelp naman mga sis kung pano process para sa Notre Dame Chapel? Tumawag kasi ako, kailngan pa daw pumunta dun para malaman requirements. Eh wala ako sa Manila. Thanks!

Hi sis, if mag email ka sa fernbrook may ma assign sayong AE she will send you all their packages/rates. But if until now you still dont have, I can send it to you. We have the same dilemma overseas bride din ako and I know how hard it is mag plan kaya same as you nag babasa basa lang din ako dito before. 150-200 guest din kami but we chose byzantine 2. Before kasi when I backread sa thread na to they are recommending byzantine 2 though mahal lang sya ng konti as in konti lang naman.

Hi sis jonahtorres! thanks sige consider ko sila

Sis wala pa din ako idea as to how mag proprocess sa notre dame but I have a copy of their requirements, binigyan kami ng AE namin. i can send it to you if you want.

[lalala00]

Sige sis pasend ako please. Pano ba mag PM dito hindi ako marunong hehe.

[jonahtorres]

Hi sis, saw your album and ang ganda ng wedding mo, congrats. Ask ko lang sana how was center table as your caterer? How was the food and the styling, did you upgrade the styling? And also yung sa forget me knot na florist what package did you get sa bridal and entourage bouquet? Kasi until now i havent book a florist yet, im still trying to get feedback kung sino maganda and sa nakita ko sa mga photos mo ang ganda ng mga flowers mo and mukhang hindi nga tinipid kasi sa iba I heard tinitipid sa flowers. 😊

@ellaenchanted17 Masarap yung food ni Center Table. Maraming guest ang nagcomplement sa food nila during the wedding. If ur abroad your can have your parents or friends set a food tasting session with them. May pwede naman silang ibigay na menu list. Si Jennifer contact person ko sa Center Table and naexecute naman nila ng tama yung mga request ko. 


As for the styling/detailing, I suggest paset ka ng skype meeting with Center Table pero before the meeting pasend ka na through email nung mga sample photos ng work nila (meron silang brochure/album na pwedeng ipakita sayo). Ikaw mamimili simula sa table cloth, chairs, center piece, flowers, backdrop. Hindi upgraded yung flowers and center piece ko. Yung backdrop lang inupgrade ko na may swirls + waterfalls.


Flowers - Forget Me Knot - Their package varies kung ilan yung entourage mo. Yung sakin bridal bouquet flowers lang yung imported with crystals. The rest ng entourage local flowers pero maganda ang quality nung pinili nila. Nagsend lang ako nung mga sample pictures nung mga gusto kong itsura ng bouquets and boutonnieres for bridal and entourage. Naexecute nila ng maayos. Yung flowers sa chapel, I suggest hingi ka nung portfolio pictures ng gawa nila. Marami pa silang style na hindi upgraded pero maganda naman. dun sa pics na pinost ko may add on ako which is yung flowers sa sahig nung aisle + yung Arch na may flowers (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153234982314919&set=a.10153234971299919.1073741827.700074918&type=3&theater). Contact person is Katrina Lappao.  Good luck sa preps!

What's your email?

[jonahtorres]

Thanks for the info sis. Im planning to do the same dn. [textspeak!] sakin kang ang imported flowers and then the rest for the entourage is local. I think out of all the accredited florist, sila ang pinaka flexible kasi they are willing to do if may specific request kal [textspeak!] iba kasi parang package literal na [textspeak!] offer. Saang hotel ka nag prep sis?

Sa Bellevue ako naghotel. If magsasagot ka rin ng accommodation ng iba (family/relatives etc.) I suggest avail mo yung membership card nila para may discounts and free room upgrades and may extra 1 night ka na free.

Ay talaga Sis. Mahigpit ba sila dun? Like sa pag dala ng crew meal?

[rienny25]

Thanks sis jonahtorres   I have a question regarding Bellevue.  Is it practical to sign up and become a member?  We're based overseas kasi and iniisip ko baka hindi din namin ma-avail yung ibang perks.  We have an endorsement letter from Fernbrook for a free room for a night sa partner hotels nila pero sa Bellevue ang preps namin.

[jonahtorres]

Ay talaga Sis. Mahigpit ba sila dun? Like sa pag dala ng crew meal?

Yes. Mahigpit sila sa pagdala ng crew meal sa hotel. Ipamanage mo na lang yung distribution ng crew meal kay wedding coordinator mo para di ka na ma hassle.

[shygirlme]

^mahigpit na sila? isa sila sa hotel na hindi mahigpit sa pagpasok ng food eh.
