lights and sounds (thread 2)

[sparklingjewel]

Infinite also works well with Sensitivity. I've been to a wedding with both of them as suppliers. I went with the same pair for mine.

Hayyyy tagal ni H2B mag decide on L&S... Gosh I didn't think he was going to be this particular with even the brand of the speakers! Natawa ako kanina he was checking youtube reviews about different speaker brands and models na nasa quotation! Actually I am just letting him have his fun researching and all, since super bihira makialam si H2B sa wedding preps!! Im letting him feel involved and in control of deciding our L&S.

I am so paranoid about lighting! Honestly lighting is even more important than styling. Styling is subjective to one's preference, but bad lighting is obvious and will affect even the output of photo and video.

Does anyone here care to share how much lighting they are adding at their reception? Ive heard of some events that use up to 60 par lamps, while some as little as 12. My stylist suggested a total of 36 par lamps, while the L&S supplier originally recommended 44 units.

[sparklingjewel]

^Naks, involved! Hehe that's new :p My fiance asked about the brands too but didnt research it naman. Lol. I kinda agree that lighting is one of those things not to be compromised, esp if youre going for a certain look. I hate wedding reception pictures that are all dark purple and pink and blue--- di na kita yung styling and how can people eat if that dark.. haha. I am really crossing my fingers i chose the right supplier. I'll give them pegs hehe

[Chili1113]

^Actually sparklingjewel Im letting him have his fun na kunyari tanong tanong siya dyan about L&S. But actually Ive decided already on who to book. LOL! Pinapa bayaan ko lang siya but in the end, I'm sure we will end up with a more reasonably priced supplier vs the ones na feeling niya type niya now =)

^ ay. not so good feedback naman yan sis. i  honestly wanted to get rejectkrew for our wedding because of so many great reviews. kaso nung nag inquire ako ng rates ng rejectkrew, iniinsist nya na kunin yung fullband daw na kilala nya. kahit sinabi ko na na meron nakong band. pushy pa rin kesyo mas makakamura daw pag rejectkrew plus his band. sabi ni h2b, mahirap daw pag ganun. umpisa pa lang di na kami magkasundo sa pinag uusapan namin.

[belle_v2g]

^stylus, iemphasize mo na lang na may band ka ng nakuha at di ka na pwedeng magcancel. or baka elmer is referring to his full band setup lang hindi sa grupo mismo. kasi sinuggest din naman nya sakin ang full band setup nya. even his perfume business for giveaways inendorse nya rin sakin pero wala naman pilitan na naganap. performance wise ok naman kasi talaga ang rejectkrew.

[stylus]

convinced naman ako sis na okay talaga service nila. super interested talaga ako makuha si rejectkrew. naexplain ko rin na booked na yung band. pero may nga texts pa sya ng sample rate pag l&s plus "band" nya ang kukunin. band mismo. hindi full band setup. sabi ko l&s service lang talaga ang kukunin ko kasi may band na. pero di na sya sumagot kahit ilang days nako nag follow up kung ano account number para magdown na eh.

[belle_v2g]

^this goes back nga to the previously posted topic, he's helping the madz and dhzei band siguro. hihi. yaan mo na sis stylus. hindi siguro talaga marunong pa mag market si kuya elmer kaya parang pushy sya.

sis may i ask why are you changing your previous l/s supplier? parang i read somewhere na LST mobile ang supplier mo for l/s. sila din po kasi supplier namin.  para if ever may problem, magawan na ng paraan. TIA!

[stylus]

^^ oo sis. okay lang naman. si h2b lang ang di nagustuhan na 1 week na di pa nagrereply kaya iba na lang kinuha namin.

[purplegravity]

We also got RejectKrew in our wedding last June and they are really good. Medyo matagal lang talaga magreply kasi sila talaga yung pinakasikat sa L&S. Dami nilang client pero sa actual event naman, superb ang service nila. They charged us 10k so i dont know if the same rates pa din sila.  We dont get any band na.

[ellrich]

^ hi we got Musicmatrix for our lights&sounds just last month July, for our wedding and they gave us superb service with bonggang LCD screen projector ang laki very affordable rates and very cool owner. We chose them rather than rejekcrew kasi they provided us with complete package though madz &dzhei ang band namin. Try to inquire with them.

Hi Ladies,

Di ako masyado magaling sa lights and sounds, parang yun yung di ko masyado nireresearch. Anyway, hindi ko kasi masyado gusto yung may iba ibang kulay (mood lights or par lights ba tawag dun?). I want warm yellow lights lang. Then sabi sakin sa venue ko (Glass Garden), they won't charge me with electricity if acoustic band lang daw kukunin namin.

So based from your experience, ok ba na wag na mag-upgrade? Sayang din kasi 18k if kaya naman pala ng basic set up. Haha! Thanks in advance!

[noveetwenty3]

Hi sisses, nakakatuwa naman may researchers pa about speakers, ganyan na ganyan husband ko nung wedding ko, and he told me na ok daw speakers like FBT or RCF speakers based on his research na rin.

@stylus- sino bang banda mo? Stick to your band na lang , it doesnt mean naman na magaling yung banda kapag recommended ni Rejectkrew, try to ask a musician friend mo or friend mo na kinasal na para mas hindi biased . But ofcourse he will be too pushy because gf nya si Madz of Madz and Dhzei, but being too pushy kahit may banda ka na is too desperate move naman. Try to get other suppliers na mas magaling pero mura naman like Artuz101 or Jsmina, they are highly recommended din ng band, coordinator ko before and my photo/video teams,  magaganda mga equipments nila and magaling sa lightings. High Impact naman pinakamagaling na lightings sa nakita kong wedding, also Sensitivity magaling sila talaga sa lights kung lights ang paguusapan.

sis, clarify with glass garden ano yung basic kasi if basic is yung installed sound system nila na nasa ilalim ng hagdan ang contol, uh-oh, it's really bad. plus you have to provide your own person to operate or instruct playing of music, etc.

if you're gettin gupgrades naman, i don't know who their other accredited suppliers are but wingdings yung last ko nakawork, di din maganda ang tunog, matigas pa ulo ng technician. ayaw makinig sa akin at sa band re adjustments

[belle_v2g]

Sound level accredited sa glass garden.

Regading the basic sound system, ok siguro sya let's say for children's party but not for weddings. Loud enough to be heard. But ginamit lang namin to when we rehearsed for our grand entrance na wala masyado tao. It'll be different pag puno yung venue.

[brendaumnas]

Thanks mga sis. I'll upgrade na din siguro. Feeling ko kasi [textspeak!] warm lights na gusto ko,dapat ata naka upgrade din. Nakita ko kasi sa post ni vatel sa fb na mas maganda ang feel kapag warm lights, to which I agree.

Sa kung sino ang lights and sounds supplier na kukunin ko, ask ko nalang siguro yung band na kukunin if may preferred supplier sila. Di ko na kukuriputin yung budget for that since madami kami nakuhang freebies sa caterer. Hehe!

[rightback]

same here sis, i want warm lights until the dinner part. and hopefully then can indeed change the color during the program na lang. we booked rejectkrew btw. good thing we're not getting a band kaya siguro di rin pushy si kuya elmer. i asked my strings (MSM) if they're ok with rejectkrew and one of their faves naman daw so i guess ok na ko with that. finally decided to let go of my venue's accredited supplier. di ako sinasagot since hindi ako nagdodown for upgrades. so no thanks, id rather pay the corkage.

[ncs]

hello, for those who booked Rejectkrew, did you book them through email or text? Saka may contract ba siya? And ina-acknowledge ba niya if ever yung downpayment mo? Kasi nababasa ko nga na matagal siya magreply, e iniisip ko parang wala siyang assistant so paano niya nama-manage lahat yun hehe. 10k din ang quote niya sa akin. Wala akong alam sa L&S so hindi ko alam kung ok na yun or kulang hehe. Thanks!

[twinxz]

^booked them via FB pm and SMS. Kinonfirm naman agad nya yung payment after ko i-send yung scanned copy. He sent the contract after 2 days. Matagal na nilang issue yang communication. I think he has an assistant coz he asked me to deposit our DP under his secretary's account.
