[chiarm]

Eto previous thread http://www.femalenetwork.com/girltalk/index.php/topic,283557.580/topicseen.html

Share ko lang, may mga relatives ako na nagtatanong pa din tungkol sa wedding namin hanggang ngayon. Akala nila, around 1M daw ang ginastos namin haha eh nowhere near that amount!

Sarap ng feeling kasi na-achieve yung goal namin to have a beautiful wedding at a low budget

^congrats sis

New house na tayo.

[astarte]

Ours was 200k simple Christian ceremony and reception in one venue for 150 guests

[blackgreen]

^wow galing! Please share sis paano niyo nagawa

[rashimeh]

^^ ganyan din target ko na budget sis. sana magawa namin

[astarte]

Mga sis konti lang kasi ang booked suppliers namin. Kung ano lang talaga yung sa tingin namin na mas importante for us nag stick lang kami doon.

Our venue was worth 15k lang and dun na ang ceremony + reception. Wala ng magkaibang setup, one look lang ang venue namin all throughout.

Thankful lang talaga ako sa caterer namin kasi sa simple setup nila na all white with few floral accents nagmukha naman elegant ang place. Wala kasi kami kinuha stylist, wala din kami lights & sounds. We just used the basic sound system that came with the venue. Sarap din ng food at complete meal talaga from soup to drinks which we paid 89k for 150 guests.

Our p/v was an all in package of 45k na for on the day coverage of photos/videos with prenup, sde, wedding album and 3 hrs photobooth.

We paid 12k for OTD coord, 7.7k for candy buffet for 150 pax. Sa dangwa lang ako bumili ng flowers pati bouquet ko the day before and hindi naman siya lanta the next day all good pa rin and yung mga mura lang talaga pinili ko at simple lang lahat.

Our wedding attire, wedding bands, ceremony materials and others were all bought from Divisoria and Binondo streets lang. Our preps location was like a house converted into an apartelle lang so around 2k lang binayad namin. Our emcee, singers and musicians are our friends and the pastor also we didn't have to pay since friend ni hubby.

It wasn't the grandest but we're happy with the outcome especially our guests who know how we struggled to stick with that budget, we got really good feedback na food and drinks were superb and nagmukhang elegant and venue. Marami sana kami gusto na ibook originally pero we let go na lang of those things. Kung hanggang saan lang means namin, hanggang dun lang kami.

^galing naman sis! Congrats!😘

[astarte]

Salamat sa pagbasa sis ang haba lang talaga haha

[moizzzelle]

Our target budget is the same as yours sis @astarte. Sana di kami mag-exceed.

[astarte]

Kinaya naman namin sis na mag stick sa budget. Buti na lang madali ako maka move on everytime na may gusto sana ako ibook or idagdag na siyempre hindi ko tinutuloy haha madali naman ako maka recover pag naiisip ko na wag na lang. Next time na lang siguro after a few years like renewal of vows or sa other family celebrations and mas malaki na ang budget.

in a world where it seems that weddings are at >500k plus (especially with the grand celebrity weddings that occurred lately), it's a breath of fresh air to see brides that can pull off beautiful weddings at reasonable prices. kudos to you and best wishes, astarte :-)

my own wedding will be around 350k for 150-180 guests and we are on track :-)

[astarte]

Thanks sis! enjoy the preps I'm sure sis you can also do a lot and surely much better with your target budget.

[bonzaigirl]

Wow sis.  You made your budget work. That is truly impressive.  Ours not so much   but we are still within our budget.  congrats to you and your hubby for making your budget work and of course to the start of a new beginning

ano ano kasama sa package nyo sis?sana ganyan din ang kinuha namin.sinong caterer mo?

[blackgreen]

^sa Forest House kami sa Baguio sis imprincessfiona. Nasa 1k per head yun food (soup, salad, two entree, pasta, dessert, bottomless iced tea) tapos ang inclusions bouquet for the bride, floral centerpiece, guestbook, signature frame, doves, menu and beverage cards, giveaways, sound system, wedding cake, sparkling toast, two days accommodation, body massage and food tasting for 4 pax. Hahaha.. Kinopya ko yun nasa package mismo.

[astarte]

Dun po sa mga nag ask ng P/V package po ng brilliant bum photography/serg cruzem/god's grace productions ang full P45k na yun (December 2014) kasama na ang photobooth kaya isang team din sila na sabay sabay dumating on the day

[moana]

Ang plano kong budget is 70K-80K.

Kung may sobra, mas maganda. I really don't want to spend that much.
Kaya I've decided sa province (place ni h2b) na lang gawin yung wedding. Mas makakamura kasi kami doon compare dito sa Manila. Family ko lang papapuntahin ko. I told my friends/officemates na i can't spend money for their transpo and accomodation. Kung sino ang willing pumunta and gumastos ng sarili nilang expenses to witness and be a part of our special day, super appreciate ko talaga.
