Suppliers Rating (Thread 4)

[wednesdei]

Hello. Just wanted to share some supplier ratings. I attended so many weddings this year so I thought I'd share some of my comments. Note, these are my comments as a guest/member of entourage only.

Mariah Santos, bridal makeup - I didn't like what she did on my friend. Even my husband said, ano nangyari?! Mukhang maganda sa photos pero in real life my friend looked old. Hindi 'fresh' yung dating. Ang dark ng lipstick, di maganda yung eye makeup and overall look. Sorry. But the hair looked nice naman.

I agree with this one. Na disappoint din ako when I saw the make up of my friend. Ang dark nung lipstick din na ginamit ni Mariah. Sayang ang mura pa naman nung binigay nya na fee sa friend ko kaya parang na entice ako. Pero after I saw her, hindi ko type. Gusto ko kasi yung fresh look lang parang si Saab Magalona on her wedding day.

Blessed John Paul II Parish Church Eastwood - pretty, pretty Church and altar. Perfect length aisle, airconditioned, good audio. Intimate but not siksikan like Paco Park Church.

Yey, nice ang feedback sa St John Paul II Parish. Dito ako ikakasal sa Dec 2016 eh. Super bait din ng staff nila nung nagpa book kami.

Sis hindi kaya choice ni bride yung dark lipstick.I mean after our makeup if we feel uncomfortable with our looks we can inform them about it. Minsan din preference nila ganun look. If it goes with the theme or its night i think dark lipstick would be be great. For me cause modern yung theme namin maybe i can opt to have a dark lipstick sa 2nd look just to look bold and sexy.

My brother's wedding just finished and the event was really successful!!! =) =) My entire family felt that "wedding high." Let me share a few insights since I helped them plan the wedding. Also as a bride-to-be in a few months I was really keenly observing the event.

AWESOME SUPPLIERS:

Notion in Motion and Caliber King (Team Pat Dy) were just AWESOME!!!!! Oh my, I broke into goosebumps watching their SDEs. Even my fiance and dad who don't really comment on photo and videos said that the SDEs were really good. I have no words for how good they both were.

Enderun Tent - for all the times I have heard that the food isn't good in Enderun, yesterday's buffet was awesome. Although I was a bit worried after I tried some of Enderun's food from my brother's food tasting--since some dishes were so-so. But their AE helped them tweak the menu. Although Enderun could certainly improve on their buffet presentation. hehe their food warmers aren'troll-top type. But the food quality and the quantity was good.

Thea Dionisio (HMUA groom's side)- Found her here through Belle_V2g.  Both of them were just absolute darlings and really really good. I loeved my hair and felt really glam. The best thing about Thea's makeup is as the night went on, everything stayed in place. My smokey eye did not smudge and it was so neatly and precisely done. The foundation looked even more natural as time went by, I just retouched a couple of times with powder.

NOW for the SO-SO suppliers:

Ivory and White--- oh my goodness the stress Ivory and White gave us with our problematic and ill-fitting entourage gowns!!! Sorry to say but this is definitely not the place to go to if you expect quality entourage gowns. I already ranted about this on another thread. BUT in fairness to them, Paula and Jonah (seamstress) came over the night before and spent 3 hours trying to fix our gowns. SO Ill give them that. THEY REALLY DID THEIR BEST and I truly appreciate that, but the gowns still didn't fit right. I also appreciate that Paula kept her cool despite my tantrums on the phone. They were very gracious in handling my complaints. Wala ako masabi, mabait talaga si Paula. But well--- the gowns-- no talaga. Never again.

Kiss The Girl Events Coordinator--- I give them a low rating for the ceremony. My gosh--- they didnt even cue the secondary sponsors. NO ONE told us it was time to light the candle, and so the candles were lit late. Furthermore, it was the bride's sister who kept fixing the bride's gown during the pictorials at the altar after the wedding and nakatayo lang the coordinator looking at the bridesmaid fix the gown. One time I saw the coordinator was about to bend over to fix the gown, but when he saw the bridesmaid do it, he stepped back, just watched, and let the bridesmaid to everythinng! Plus sana binagayan sa crowd yung pag announce ng coordinator the sequence of the church pictorial. Oh yeah and ang gulo nila. They announced after the recessional that all entourage members need to stay for pictorials. UHM.... then only for me to find out that the entourage pictorials were cancelled due to lack of time. Medyo magulo lang. Cha and Arbee were the ones there and they are GOOD, but I don't think all their coordinators are at par. But other than that, the reception went smoothly and I think they did a good job ushering guests and turning over all the items.


Hope this helps!!! =) Happy New Year to all.

Hi chili! Thank you for your reviews. Congratulations to your brother & his wife. It seems like i'll be doing the gown fixing for my friend too if KTG doesn't seem to care about it. She got them too for her 2017 wedding but I will note this feedback for my friend {Just an insert: During our wedding, none of E&E's staff came to the front din but because it was requested by our ceremony governor and the pastor's own coordinating staff Na 'Hands off' talaga sila sa ceremony.} But, i was actually expecting at least 1 out of my 3 bridesmaids man lang sana to help fix my gown kase panay MOH ko din ang laging tumatayo noon. Literal na parang display lang bridesmaids ko don. Hehe.

By the way sis.. If you don't mind, How much na package ni RejectKrew ngayon? When I got them before, wala pa silang screen. How much na kaya now including the screen?

And, the makeup, I liked it too when Thea posted her shots last night!! I'm glad you loved her work. The make up is even and flawless. The three of you looked fab & perfect. I booked her na nga for Jan 2017 just to make sure I get her services that day. Hehe!

[reese17]

^ just curious, how much is Thea's rate now? (Non-bridal)

[belle_v2g]

^sorry reese17, i don't have her non bridal rates but, i'll have a chat with caleeice coz she just booked thea for that purpose too. will update you asap.

[Chili1113]

^reese17: I think better pm nalang Thea kasi she gave us I think a lower rate since we were 3 heads that needed to be fixed. Plus we only did traditional makeup. But honestly the application was flawless.

belle_v2g: Rejectkrew package was still 10k when they were booked. But the screen was from Metrotech daw=)

I deleted my comment about rejectkrew kasi I think the mishap of the photographer AVP being played a few seconds and  stopped, was not rejectkrew's fault. It was Kiss The Girl who made a mistake giving the cue. Anyway good thing no one seemed to notice. And even my brother didn't notice it. So no harm done =)

[juwie]

Oh wow, ganda mo Chilli!! belle_v2g showed me your pic! Now I'm thinking of getting her too for the weddings I'm attending next year. Hmmm..

[belle_v2g]

Thea did the same for my ento. She gave me a deal na if I have more than 5 heads na magpapayos, she'll charge P300 less than her regular rate. They did a total of 13 heads. kaya malaki discount.

[Chili1113]

Thanks juwie!! That's just Thea's magic at work hehe. And as the night went on mas lalo pa gumanda the makeup because parang everything blended in. The foundation never separated and just sank in well after many hours.

Thanks also belle_v2g! Ang dami ko na suppliers na book because of your recommendations! Hhehe I booked Ghe and Sweetscapes for my wedding, and yesterday Thea--because of you! And I am happy with all your recommendations! Thank you!

[belle_v2g]

^i'm glad to be of help chili. i'm sure ghe and leann won't fail you too.

[caleeice]

Hello girls! I've been out of the loop. I don't get to check GT as much because of work and because I get sleepy when I get home. Preggy kasi. hehe.

Anyhow, I saw Thea's post. Ikaw pala yun sis! You're so pretty!! I also got Thea for a wedding I'll be attending in Feb and also considering getting her for weddings after that. PM me na lang sis for her rates

Happy new year ladies! Tapos na 2015. Time flies by soooo fast!!! It's your time to shine, 2016 brides!

[Chili1113]

awww Thank you Caleeice!! Hehe I don't really look like that haha. I am super chinita and was never able to rock extremely smokey eyes before... until Thea came along. Haha it was my 1st time to go very smokey. Also my 1st time to have big hair.

We had gown issues and so I agreed to go for a very dramatic look to take the attention away from my faulty gown. hehe and it worked!!! Everyone complemented me despite the ill fitting gown. My sister and I had a feeling of dread the day before because of our gown issues. But Thea and Omai's magic made us feel confident and pretty.

For once in my life I appreciated and my super duper thick hair.  Others kasi are great makeup artists but the look isnt achieved because the hairstylist isnt as good. But Thea's partner Omai is really good!

I highly recommend Thea. All three of us- my mom, sister, and me were very happy with her and Omai.

Saw the pictures on Thea's page, Chilli1113!! Love it!! <3

Thanks for the reviews, especially for Ivory and White's entourage gown mishap. Nakakatrauma! I'm glad the HMUA compensated for the gowns.

I'd also like to know Thea's rates, if pwede sana pa-PM please! I'd also like to get her sana for my entou

[Chili1113]

Ill pm you sis ^

[Tubby]

Yes, sis Chili! You're very pretty! Saw the photo as well. The make-up compensated for the gown mishap.

[j.adore]

I just have to comment.. Chili1113, you're soooooo pretty
Hope to see your wedding photos/videos

[lots-o]

So pretty sis chili 😘😘! how much is thea's charge for non wedding? and dami ko kasi pupuntahan this year na events. Very interested!

[Chili1113]

awww thank you j.adore!! My wedding is still in May but we got Thea for my brother's wedding and she did really well =)

lots-o, thank you!!! Thea charged us 2k per head for traditional makeup, but I am not sure if that is the regular rate or if it is discounted because of 3 heads.
