The Simplest Wedding One Can Imagine

[ana mimi]

Sa may tramway or dad's. mukhang OK naman dun at may mga function rooms din sila

Ako plan ko sa may Great Eastern Hotel sa MAkati. pero problem ko pa ang churchand PV

Gusto ko church na naka aircon at MAkati na 10k less

at P/V na 15k less

to be honest, if your budget for p/v is only 15k. even my photographer, which is based in the province and thus has lower rates than the metro, charges 19k for his service only package. maybe you might want to choose just one - either the photographer or the videographer...just a thought...but if you can find a p/v for that price then that would be awesome :-)

[ilove090509]

HI mga sisies, I've got my p/v for 5,000 only. Madami sa sulit, try niyo po =)

[reenabautista]

Kung ako masusunod, i will do the following:
1. i found some beautiful gowns sa zalora. may nakita ako na nasa 7000 ata. May different sizes. Veil nalang ang kulang. ganun na rin sa entourage na babae. May gowns for as low as 1300.
2. Buy wedding cake sa local bakeshop. There's a okay (malaki) na  cake for as low as 3500. May free delivery pa like goldilocks or red ribbon.
3. Hire an acoustic solo singer. Marami dyan for as low as Php5500

Sa food nalang kami mag co-concentrate and photo video. Yung sa church naman meron naman reasonable rate.

Kakalungkot lang na may churches na business na ang pagpapakasal.

May nakita ako na studio that offers 18k pero for debut. may photobooth na. just forgot the name of the studio. Pero siguro pwede ko naman sila kunin sa wedding since walaa naman sila rates sa wedding/

^sis meron fb page for wedding suppliers Philippines. Post ka don ng budget mo and a lot of suppliers will comment for sure..madaming nagooffer dun ng services.

[moana]

wow, nakakatuwa naman mga inputs ninyo for simple wedding ideas and budget. ayoko din gumastos ng sobra for a wedding dahil may mas importanteng dapat gastusan after marriage.

babasahin ko lahat ng suggestions dito, I'm sure makakatulong ito sa amin ni future hubby.

Thanks a mga suggestions and ideas. 

[ana mimi]

Naku, makapasok na nga jan sa facebook group na yan. Hirap mag budget, although na gusto ko maging matipid ang wedding, gusto ko naman na maging OK sya sa paningin ko at kapag binalikan ko yung memories na yun after years. Cut down nalang talaga ng guests, gusto ko talaga yung mga tao na naging witness lang sa relationship namin. So far, I'm still torned between a garden wedding or a hotel reception. HAist.

Nasabi ko na ito kay bf, agree naman sya sa mga suggestions ko. Pero want ko talaga ng church wedding and walk the aisle. It's a once in a lifetime event

[blackgreen]

I think yun pinaplano namin kasal one of the simplest wedding. Very intimate, immediate families plus if ever super close friends. We don't have an entourage, wala naman sila role since Islamic wedding kami. Wala din masyado program. We will have the ceremony and reception in one place.

[ana mimi]

It really depend sa inyo sis. ang pinaka importante naman is makasal kayo with or without the kaartehan. hehe.

nung una kase gusto ko yung big wedding, kaya lang sa mga gusto ko na venue, yung reception pa lang is nasa 200k+ na agad for 100 pax, e nasa 200 yung gusto ko bisita, now down to a simpler, more intimate and practical wedding. naging 80 guests below nalang kami. smaller church and venue pero quality food and photography maybe.

I'm excited kahit na wala p talaga final plans yet.

[blackgreen]

May mga naririnig na nga kami na magtatampo daw ang ibang relatives kasi ang layo ng kasal namin. Minsan gusto ko magtampo kasi sana naisip din nila na pag sa place ni h2b ang kasal, sa side naman ng family ko wala makakapunta. Hayy.. isa sa mga problems.

Basta kami ni h2b ang gusto talaga namin, may budget man or wala, intimate wedding. Gusto namin yun nandun lang yun may mga naging interaction/contribution sa relationship namin.

[Hevn]

^ For those na nagtatampo, part of me think you shouldn't care pero part of me feels like you should spend a day with those other people just to celebrate. Tipong simple lunch celebration lang if kaya ng budget.

Yung wedding ng tita ko was very simple rin. Around 15k lang ata ginastos nya and it was really great! It was her second wedding because viuda na sha with her first husband.

Here are the details
* rented out Laya in Antipolo (awesome venue)
* preparation is at Laya na rin
* Laya provided catering as well, some relatives brought food as well
* konti lang kami, around 30 pero puro relatives lang talaga, everyone was asked to wear white, casual to semi-formal pero nothing extravagant
* coordinator and photographer is the daughter of the bride
* ceremony was held beside the pool, DIY ang arc and then placed lang around 10 lanterns sa pool
* simple cake and favors
* preps, ceremony, picture taking, dinner, dancing and wedding is done!

hi blackgreen, there always be those people who will complain or who will not be happy about the wedding. we can't please everyone, after all. all we can do is take their complaint with grace and explain why we have done what we have done. if they're still not happy - it's their problem not yours. at the end of the day, it's about you and your groom and what kind of wedding celebrates your relationship :-)

[blackgreen]

^thank you sis hevn and 120515.

Yun na nga lang din iniisip ko. We can't please everybody. Sinabi ko na ke h2b why not mag-hold kami ng pakain dun sa province nila for his relatives, ayaw din naman niya. Di ko daw kilala relatives nila so kahit daw mag-effort kami may masasabi at masasabi pa rin daw sila.

Anyways, gusto talaga namin intimate wedding. Initially nga sabi namin dapat ang guests not more than 50. Pero dahil di yun kakayanin kung either sa place niya or sa place ko magpakasal kaya we chose na mag destination wedding.

  thank you sa nag start ng thread na ito,nakakainspired at napaisip talaga ako.kasi sa mga nabasa ko dito sa GT threads parang ang lalaki ng mga budget at expected nilang gastusin for their wedding meron pang 2M nakakatakot at nakakastress kasi nag start palang akong mag plan ng wedding namin,sa sobrang commercialize na nga ng wedding sa pinas parang everyone wants a dongyan wedding then after the wedding the couple will be back to zero bank account. kaya so thankful I found this thread it makes me feel na di namin kailangan makipagsabayan sa iba para sa engrandeng wedding kasi ang importante naman talaga is yung sacrament o basbas ni God, I hope that we can do this kind of wedding, solem and simple with all the people that loves us.

[120515]

^ the dongyan wedding, is actually my nightmare! hahaha! just thinking of all those people gives me cold sweat! of the recent celebrity weddings, my favorite is bianca gonzalez's wedding. it had everything i wanted in a wedding - simple, intimate, DIY elements :-) ^

[twinxz]

gusto ko din sana ng gantong wedding intimate, simple and destination. but si h2b ang ayaw. mas maarte pa sakin. 1st kasi sa side nila and sa side ko din kaya big deal sa kanya.

[airish_2]

Ako bet ko rin yung kay Bianca Gonzales fit din sya sa personality namin ni bf.

[yanzkiiie]

Anyone tried to have their reception at any vanilla cupcake branches? Kasi i asked for their rates its like more or less 700/head lang sila.  I like this place kasi you don't need to style the place na talaga. 

[twinxz]

^nice idea sis but never heard of such. yup ang cute ng place nila and I so love their cupcakes! haha! been comparing it to others, and for me, no one has beaten them yet.
