Budget for Each Supplier

[tan.denise54]

sis j.adore is right. you should know your budget to know what will work for you. otherwise, your expenses will shoot up.

You should do it the other way around. Set a total amount you're willing to spend then allocate from there. Iba iba buying power ng mga tao plus preferences.We have weddings here as low as 50k and then meron din in the millions. Kung ano nag work sa iba, might not work for you.

This thread is very helpful During the initial stages of our planning, we have set our wedding budget but I dont have any idea on how many percentage should I give for each supplier. We are also based overseas kaya we dont have a chance to join the bridal fairs. Buti na lang may GT forum, binasa ko talaga mga threads for each supplier and tanong tanong sa mga sis so far ito pa lang mga napagdecidean ko pero hindi pa booked hehe Need help rin mga sis sa mga kulang ko pa

^Hi sis big factor sa L&S yung headcount mo, venue, and of course your standards. We ended up at around 40+k upgraded lights for an outdoor setup and based on your costs i think we pretty much have the same standards and preferences... Where is your venue?

I think ok na 50k sa Edsa Shang. Midrange HMUA is 20-30k. Cheapest bridal car is around 5-7k, the ones na not elegant ha don't expect a Jaguar We managed to get a good band for 20k.

The rest---photobooth, mobile bar, i wont be having the traditional so i cant advise you

Thanks sa inputs sis! Our venue is at Blue Leaf Mckinley 40k for l&s sis?? Anong inclusions nun? Mga how much kaya  for 150guests? I dont have any idea pa kasi for this supplier.. Pero ayoko ng basic lang coz I dont have a budget for stylist and our venue is quite plain to me, i think L&S lang ang pagasa

[bzbee]

^ sis Blue Leaf McKinley din ako. sabi ni DTS okay na daw yung in house sound system ni BL which is included in the package. ive also asked our AE about the mood lights and she said we can rent it at 500 pesos per unit. still dont know how much of this we're gonna need though.

Hi sis outdoor setup ako with high-ceiling clear tent and 250 pax, so since Blue Leaf ka baka di ka naman aabot ng 40k  Nag-add lang kami since we want more lights talaga to make the tent "glow". What made our quote expensive din is that may generator na yan as we will have 2 LED walls and di na kaya ng power provided by the venue. If mag LED wall kayo, you'll likely need one too. I think you can add drapes too to make your indoor venue nice.. kaso high-ceiling ba Blue Leaf? Need to consider that too para hindi nakakasuffocate naman yung decor na ilalagay.

Thanks sa lahat ng mga nag share. malapit kona matapos yung list ko for my budget on each suppliers

[patriciasy595]

For San Agustin wedding, I can recommend La Castellana for your reception. It's really near the church, almost walking distance and it's a nice place too

OMG...Thank you sa lahat ng nagreply. it is very helpful. its really nice to know the budgets that you have for certain suppliers. now may idea narin ako sa mamaging gastos ko. My budget mga sis is 400k, San agustin church, naghahanap pa ng venue. caterer meron nadin kasi ninang ko yung owner, il ask them na nga kung saan silang mga venue accredited, as per some Gt members advice me to do. i hope soon makagawa narin ako ng list ng katulad sa inyo.

[EatsMe]

Wala naman yata kaming budget really... as long as mabait kausap ang supplier, maasikaso, maayos ang rates na tipong hindi masyadong mahal, may magandang reputation, at magaling... dun na kami.

[Nikky27]

hi po, sino po marerefer niyo na photobooth suppplier? yung 3 to 4k lang sana Thanks so much

[belle_v2g]

^instabooth philippines. Around 4k lang sis.

[czarina1987]

thanks sis patriciasy595, kasama na siya sa lists ng ppuntahan namin

almost done nako searching for my otd, ang set kong budget is only 13 to 15k , based nadin sa average ng mga budgets niyo. naka pencil book nako im just waiting for my fiance kung ok na. the next supplier im planning to book is photo/video. would 40 to 50k be enough to get a decent photo/video supplier?

[belle_v2g]

50k sis both photo/video na or 50k each?

[simang]

^^there are a lot of p/v teams who offer good service na in that price range. syempre everything will depend din on your must-haves when it comes to p/v -- coverage lang ba? With albums na, with prenup, SDE, save the dates, etc.

[czarina1987]

50k sis both photo/video na or 50k each?

50k for both photo/video na sis, wala akong 100k na budget for them.. 450k nga lang total budget ko eh
