MID range wedding gown designers

[wacky18]

Try Bridesdream, subok na sila ng buong family namin (yes, both immediate and relatives, haha). They can actually go from budget to midrange depending on the style of your gown. They have budget packages for simple designs. But they can also do very intricate and stylish ones (thus, midrange or even higher).

They're located in Las Pinas but they're opening a branch in Quezon City soon, not sure when. Pero lagi naman silang nasa mga bridal fair so di kayo mahihirapan ma-meet yung group nila.

hello sissies  naka hingi lang ako ng gown sa boss ng amo ng friend ko na may boutique ng gowns sa italy pero need to repair konti syempre dun sa design na gusto ko and ask also for the accessories na kasama i paid 25K for repair and he gave me the sketch na pwedeng ayusin and i love it i Got Mat Basilio for repairing my gown

Hi girls!

Question lang: when you met the designers you were eyeing, how long nag-take yung actual appointment?

Thanks!!!

Hi sis! I think it will depend on your discussion. Kami normally 30 mins max na (until an hour if me sinusukat akong gown) kasi di naman ako matanong masyado hehe.

Hi ladies,

Im just wondering if Edward Teng is good? i loved some of his gowns displayed during the wedding fair last weeked. They gave me a flyer and it says 35k minimum on wedding gown.

Thank you

Hello Ladies! Reading your comments to Edward Teng really excites me. We booked him thru bridal fair last weekend, and I provided them yung mababa kong budget for the gown para my buffer ako in case hindi kaya yun peg na gusto ko. We were amazed sa mga nakadisplay nyang gowns nung fair. Naconvince din kasi si h2b na yun na lang ang ibook namin kasi maganda din talaga, especially yung mga gowns with beads. But with our budget, baka hindi ganun ang makuha namin na design. hehe. But I'm hoping na maganda and bongga pa din kahit papano.

i love edward teng's gowns! i still look at the displays sa bridal fairs even if i didn't end up with them. so nice pa the people at their shop. they can work with your preferred design and budget basta be prepared with your haggling skills

girls, i have been seenzoned by rich fontanilla. already thinking of giving him up kasi twice na nya ako naseenzone and i also contacted their phone but walang nagreply... fiance still wants me to wait for him, sya talaga kasi yung this is it moment naming lahat sa gowns. I can't think of someone else who does better beadworks na nasa price range nya (50-60k)... what do you suggest sisses? or may rich fontanilla brides ba dito? i think he's from tarlac and i'm from makati so i am also unsure paano fitting and meetings...

[yannuh]

How about Cecilio Abad sis? I am not sure lang how much ang gowns nya.

[dcpdane]

hi sis! nirecommend din sya ng hmua ko si toni aviles. when i inquired with mr. abad naman, 100k daw starting
ibang level kasi yung mga gawa ni rich kaya kahit 30k lang na bridehouse/bridesdream/ivory and white/divisoria ang initial targets ko, si fiance mismo makulit na ipupush nya yung 50-60k kay rich...

[bzbee]

^ sis dcpdane, have you tried mel orlina? she's on your price range and her studio is in makati.

[dcpdane]

thanks for the suggestion sis, but she never replied din to me eh. but sa kanya hindi confirmed na "seenzoned" unlike yung kay rich na nakalitaw yung "seen on..."

[bzbee]

is this on facebook sis? have you tried sending her an email sa gmail? mabilis siya nagreply saken when i inquired, i remember pa kasi it was on a holiday and i didn't expect her to respond but she did.

[dcpdane]

ay yep sis sa facebook ko sila iniinquire-ran kasi i assume mas mabilis sila dun since updated naman mga walls nila... thanks sis! sabi ko nga kay fiance iunfollow ko na lang si rich sa fb para malet go ko na sya. joke! haha! arte! tuwing makikita ko kasi mga pics nya ang sarap titignan ng details ng gowns nya. sya talaga bet ni fiance for me. research-research na lang rin ako siguro...

[bzbee]

aww sis if you really like him, maybe you should wait a little longer. when is your wedding ba? set a deadline na lang and line up your other options just in case. ang hirap mag let go pag gusto mo talaga, lalo na you have a go signal from fiance na

[ece]

we share the same sentiments about Rich F. sis dcpdane, he's from Pampanga btw. nakakalungkot na nakakainis na alam mong online siya pero di nya binabasa messages ko. nagreply once, kung nakapili na daw ba ko ng cut na gusto ko, eh sinabi ko na nga na hindi ko alam kung anong cut ang bagay sa body type ko. hay nalang! i'll wait until August sis, January 2016 wedding namin. good luck naman. hehe.. kayo ba? pero gusto ko kase talaga siya. I even mentioned to him na kung di sila ang gagawa ng gown ko, next option ko na talaga is RTW. charot lang. 

I tried to reach mel orlina din, sa website nila, sa fb, sa gmail nya, walang response din.

has anyone tried melaine's bridal? magaganda din works nya based on fb posts.

[fluffyfluff]

Sis dcpdane maybe you can try asking Emil Ocampo, CocaCouture and Roxy Bagano. Nag rereply naman sila within the day and maganda naman mga beadings nila and feel ko pasok pa sila sa budget mo   And pag peg mo si Cecilio Abad, meron syang parang team B, search mo Vidal Clayton sa FB and magaganda din gawa nila sis, not sure nga lang sa price pero parang Cecilio Abad din ang pagka intricate ng details

Akin lang sis ah, I give suppliers a chance kasi alam ko busy sila pero pag twice na ako hindi pinansin, well they're off of my list since I would not want my hard earned money to go to someone who doesn't even take a few minutes to reply to me

Hope this helps and good luck sa preps!

Hello ece and dcdpe.  I had the same sentiments before. ece knows. we've been friends sa facebook na  Anyway, regarding rich f. just 1 piece of advise nalang siguro. if you really like him, in case you message then suddenly na read naman agad, call him! using the fb messenger.  When i talked to him last time, (thanks to another GT Bride for reco) sa facebook cia nag call saken then we talked. Kaya lang, long story short, i won't get him na. (Sis ECE knows). i believe he is really good. bading na bading kausap! Saya! goodluck Girls

Hi sis dcpdane and sis ece, mel orlina ako and she's super nice. if you want i can give you her email address. dun ko din sila kinontak kasi. hindi na ata nila nasasagot yung mga messages sa FB sa dami ng mga nagiinquire.

[mdnextdoor]

Sis dcpdane, if mel orlina doesn't answer your queries on fb, etc. and you live in makati naman, better dropby her shop. It's in jupiter lang. I'm not sure lang pero your wedding is in january, right? Ako kasi december. I booked her march of this year and there were 15 slots remaining for the month of december. 35 daw ang limit niya. Ganon siya kabilis mabook. So if you're eyeing her, punta ka na lang sa shop niya and ask her in person if she can still accomodate you para hindi masayang oras mo kasi medyo malapit na ang january. Nagulat nga din ako. 😉
