After weeks of hiatus from the final stress of wedding planning--graduate na rin from 2 weeks ago.
Will post ratings of our highly recommended suppliers.
Photographer: Nicolai Melicor

We really loved Nicolai, her team and their work. From our prenup in Iloilo up to our wedding, she made us really comfortable in front of the camera. All our guests loved the photos when they showed the prenup and SDE during the reception. Their team was on time, efficient and easily worked well with our videographers. They all even went beyond their tasks by making sure we were hydrated, fed and their assistant kuya Bok was asking if I'm ok, would signal our coordinator if we need water and pinapaypayan kami during the post nup outdoors. Nicolai responds to all my queries. Lately though its not as fast since its still the peak season but she would still respond at a reasonable time.
Videographer: Ghe Consolacion

We loved our SDE and so did everybody else. Ghe and Aysa were really nice and easy to talk to. They asked if we have any preferences sa songs and other details and I only asked for 1 shot if weather permits--to have the aerial shot taken from Manila Bay with the view of our hotel. And yun agad ang opening shot. He really captured all our emotions that day.

The food was really good even the leftovers still tasted good. The styling (by Lori) was fantastic--simple and classy as what we have agreed on and every detail during the mock up was followed. If I have any concerns or issues I let Monique know and she takes action. Like everyone else, communicating with them takes some time but recently it has improved. Di na ganun ka tagal ang wait time for replies.
Wedding Gown: Roxy Bagano

I never thought Roxy can make me girly for a day. When I met her for an appointment and sketched for me, I knew it was the one. Funny though because my gown was baliktad (the upper portion--wherein the front was at the back and vice versa) yet everyone said and ganda daw. Di ko rin napansin since I didn't even get to see a mirror until we were about to go down from the hotel. Her assistant was the one who assisted me in dressing up on the big day.
HMUA: Kaycee Lim

Everyone said ang ganda ng makeup ko and nag-set talaga ng maayos. She really made me look and feel beautiful.
Coordinator: CakEvents
9.5
Everything just really went by smoothly that day. If there were hiccups, we didn't even feel it. They were also helping me chase some of my suppliers a month before the wedding (holidays in between) and made sure everything was complete.
Church: San Sebastian
9
The church was really beautiful di na kailangan ng bongga flower arrangements ans we just went with their basic flower inclusions. The coordinators were really efficient. Downside, you have only one hour from bridal march up to pictorials. Our guests were surprised how fast it all went. Good side of that--walang na bore
Venue: Light of Love (AE Stephanie Reyes)
9
Steph really replies fast to all my queries and everything went well. Downside they accept up to three events that day and there were 3 of us. Our guests had to park at their extension parking lot and had to walk. Other than that, we loved their grounds and have several good spots for photos.
The rest to follow.
