hi girls! halo-halo na rin kasi sa ibang thread. baka mas okay if dito tayo, mas specific share us your progress with your suppliers esp if they are tagaytay-based para sa mga ayaw magbayad ng oot fee!

Hello mga sis!  Happy preps. Share lang ng supplier ratings and feedback although intimate wedding yung saamin.

Wedding Date: Jan 15 2015
Number of guests: 85

Church: Caleruega
Rating: 10/10
Closer to nature, closer to God

Priest: Fr Allen De Guzman
Rating: 20/10
Cant thank fr allen enough. Sobrang memorable ng wedding dahil sa homily nya. Lahat ng guests galing pa ng manila for a 9 am mass, but walang inantok or nagcomplain... everyone was included/participated sa homily... they commended fr allen dahil napakaganda ng homily and ng ceremony. Thank you fr allen. we will pray for your health.

Bet na bet ko yung SDE na gawa nila. Mababait and kwela din sila... They are on time and very professional. Game din sila pag sinabi kong shoot pa tayo dito... ganun ganyan.. Hehe... tapos bang for the buck pa sila. Sila yung pinaka sulit na nakita kong package. I shortlisted 5 of the cheapest PVs... Sila yung cheapest... But the outcome is great

HMUA: Nini Marquez
Rating: 9/10
Ok naman yung make up ni sis nini. Hindi ako nagmukhang racoon kahit mega crayola ko nung ceremony... mejo nalate lang sya ng konti but other than that ok naman lahat... kahit nangarag sya dahil andaming nagpa on the spot make up sa kanya pagtapos ko...

gown: divi-made
Rating: 10/10
Dahil super affordable nya tee hee! Bang for the buck!

florist: Il fiore
Rating: 10/10
Mabait kausap si Ms Bhem, kuhang kuha nya yung peg ko sa bouquet na rustic chenes... Ganda din ng flowers sa church kahit simple lang

Sound system and Projector: 6/10
Naka cd lang ako sa church, so kinuha ko sila to operate the laptop to play the songs, liturgical and lahat ng songs.. but yung liturgical hindi nila naiplay hindi ko alam kung bakit. kaso alaangan naman mag reklamo ko e nakaluhod ako sa harapan. haha . Yung mga iba naiplay naman ng maayos sa reception. Pero d na ko magpapastress. Natuwa naman lahat ng guests ko kay Fr Allen, so ndi na nila napansin na walang songs. Kasi si Fr na mismo yung nag sstart kumanta or nirrecite nalang.

OTD and emcee: events by rachel
rating: 10/10
hindi ako dapat kkuha ng emcee and otd dahil intimate wedding lang. but buti nalang kumuha ko kundi nawindang pala ko... pinakaimportante yung mag aasikaso sa mga bisita pag wala pa yung bride sa church... sinong magpipin nung mga corsage sa mga guys, magbibigay nung mga candle veil cord, at lahat ng kailangan sa church... si rachel din nagburn ng mga cd na kailangan ko sa lahat.. so very thankful ako sa kanya... and very affordable yung price nya... kumpara sa stress na makukuha mo.

reception: balay indang
rating: 8/10
the food is superb. nabusog lahat. maasikaso din yung staff. kaso mejo mahirap dito yung program flow.. kasi kelangan nyo pa lumipat ngvenue for program, which is minsan tatamarin na yung guests ng palipat lipat... mejo maliit kasi yung main dining hall nila. ewan ko lang yung sa elizabeth hall na bago nila.. sabi nila mejo maluwag daw yun..

yun lang. Sharing our SDE: vimeo.com/117387641

^ hello sis dcpdane! PM me your email ad. send ko sayo yung quotation sakin ni Il Fiore. Lagi busy si Ms Bhem., she prefers call kesa sa text/email. pero nung sakin nakakasagot naman sya kahit after 2 days. Kuha ko sa kanya 18k, all in. church flowers, ento and pag transport sa reception. but shempre rates depends on the type of flowers..

yung gown ko sis Shann-C sa lower ground sa 168


yeyyyy happy preps sis!

[dcpdane]

thanks sis smile22! feeling ko tuloy ikaw mentor ko haha! ang dami ko na atang naitanong sayo? haha!

^ sis jheajen, rosemont ka rin pala ganda dun. gustong gusto ko dun kaso ayaw ng pamilya ko kasi matarik, kawawa daw mga tanders. pero balak ko dyan na magcheck-in. 10k-12 ata overnight for 12 pax na sana nga dyan kami magprep, ganda kasi dyan talaga nung nag ocular ako ng morning tapos sulit pa yung 12 pax (1k additional per head). mabait pati yung kausap ko dyan crossing my fingers! tadtarin mo na lang ng lights kahit di na kita ang view by that time, pretty pa rin. ganda caleruega pag december. nakapagretreat na kami ng december dun nung college.

[jheajen]

Tnx sis dcpdane,yun nga balak namin sa lights..kaya medyo natatagalan kame sa paghanap..and nagiisip din kame how we can entertain our visitors kasi nga night wedding so baka after ceremony mag eat and run lang sila.lol..and its a weekday wedding pa.so nagrisk na lang kame so bahala na lang,ilagay na lang namin sa invitation na late na matapos ang wedding talaga..or direcho simbang gabi sila ng madaling araw.haha.kakastress kasi magpalit ng date,lahat apektado.kaloka..

[dcpdane]

sis, kontratahin mo na lang nearby hostels and ask them to offer discounts sa mga guests mo, tipong yung invitation yung proof. or bigay ka list of possible names sa receptionists. then inform them na may discount kayo sa mga places na ito, para di agad umuwi. kampante silang may matutulugan silang malapit na mura-mura. although yung iba hindi siguro gugustuhing maglabas ng money for overnight stay kahit discounted sarapan na lang ang food at galingan ng emcee nyo sa games kaya yan. alam naman nilang taga abroad ka pa, minsan ka na nga lang nila makabonding, mag eat and run pa ba sila. agahan mo na rin save the date invites mo kahit wala pang physical invites. PDF file muna or FB event. patingin ng rosemont pics mo sis ha!

Any feedback. thanks

[dcpdane]

Not sure about her sis e, haven't heard of her though Pero marami namang venues sa area na may mga tie-ups and packages so if ever di mo sya magustuhan, kaya mo parin mag book with less hassle. alam ko yung villa ibarra halos all-in na e pati potter ridge. nasa 100-120k sila.

[aleenacyra]

Thanks sis! Non-negotiable kasi namin yong venue-Club Ananda, limited lang tuloy choices namin because of their accredited caterers. Yong most affordable na is Madel's, di naman sila ever nagreply sa email/fb.  Search pa ko ng feedbacks..

[smile22]

^sis dcpdane. email sent re: il fiore quotation. ok lang yun. madami din ako natutunan sa mga sis natin dito. kaya its time to give back pag graduate ka na.

sis jheajen. pag magaling yung emcee mo, hindi mag eeat and run yung mga guests mo. and keep the program short and fun. oks na yun

happy preps sa inyong lahat ^_^

[jheajen]

Thanks mga sis.yup dapat lively host talaga lalo sa sa night wedding para hindi antukin bisita namin.maglagay nalang kame talaga ng maeentertain ang mga bisita.

[dcpdane]
