Problems you encounter while preparing for your wedding (Part 7)

[sparklingjewel]

I've long accepted that my groom will never be as proactive as I want him to be, and that i have to give him tasks for him to progress with anything.. pero at least cooperative The wedding is really the girl's...

[lourd3ss]

Agree with the above! There was a point in the wedding planning when I was sending my fiancé links of suppliers' websites for him to check out but he would just brush it off to the side. It's frustrating to feel like he didn't care at all. The toughest part about it is we are an overseas and LDR couple so on top of not being able to meet with suppliers we also can't talk about our issues face to face. Hirap talaga although it's better now. He gives me his opinions and narrow down our choices but ultimately he lets me have the final say on things. What the bride wants, the brides gets

How to lose weight 2 months before 1st gown fitting. And 3 months before wedding day. That's a problem, right?

Hi guys my disappointment is my venue! Kasama sa pckGe na binook namin for venue is the use of tiffany chairs. Sabi nila yun so immediately we booked since bet ko naman siya. Ang kaso, this week, inaask ko sila how many chairs and what color of the chairs para masabi ko sa caterer na wag na magdala. Surprisingly, sabi nila hindi daw included and its additional payment of 15k And miscommunication daw ang nangyari?! How would this be miscommunication eh yung rinig ni mother ko, rinig ni husband to be and rinig ko, tapos miscommunication? Tse!

Also, sabi nila, waive na ang lights and sounds corkages kung acoustic setup lang if may band. Kaya naman daw yun kasi almost basic lights and sounds lang. Now, upon confirming with them again, (kasi nga nawala na trust ko, so just to clarify) im surprised again na may additional fee pa din daw yun! gusto kong umuwi ng pinas para personally magcomplaint at awayin sila na baket ganurn sila! Grrrr. Bridezilla is here! Hahahaha.
I was there when we inquire, but i handed over to my ate yung pgsign ng contract kasi paflyback na ako abroad. Ngayon tuloy, gusto ko awayin ang ate ko kung bakit hindi sya masyado magusisa! Hahahahha.

Hay. Truelalu. Ang preps ng kasal, nakakastress. For the last 6 months na nagpreps ako, la ako stressors. And exactly 6 months before the wedding, dumadating na ang mga stressors ko! 😁🙈

[tiffany24]

nakakaloka naman yan sis daeyan kailangan talaga maging super detailed tayo sa contract or else pwede nila baguhin yung mga sinabi nila. Kinakabahan tuloy ako kasi may new AE kami at may mga details din kami na napagusapan nung original AE ko na nag resign na wala sa contract. Panibagong paliwanagan na naman to.

7 months to go, and our mananahi who's supposed to make the entourage gowns and my aunts' gowns backed out kasi uuwi  daw ng probinsya. And then pagbalik sa Rizal eh hindi na daw sya pwedi magtahi at pinatitigil na daw ng anak. My gosh. Bakit naman ngayon king kelan magdedecember na. I know I have 6.5-7 months to look for mananahi, but most eh nagtaas na ng price. Nakakaasar. Akala ko yung barong na lang ang problem ko, strings and a few minor suppliers na lang. Ngayon pampadagdag pa!! 😣😣😣   


@monopoly19 -sis gaano kalaki ang target weight mo na mawala? I lost about 10-15 lbs.from doing yoga, and pop pilates. I used to do hot power yoga for a few months, then nung lumipat ako place ng hubby ko, I stopped taking classes kasi walang malapit pa but practiced at home-both yoga and pop pilates and cardio workout as well. About a few weeks ago may nagopen na studio sa amin so I walk there (20-30minutes back and forth) and had been doing it for about a few weeks na. My hubby kasi eh medyo chubby so binabawasan ko na din magluto sa bahay para magdiet. We eat rice only about 3-4x a week (once a day only). Bihira ako na mag2xa day rice. I have to say na yung yoga I've been doing it since March. In total, I've lost about 10-15 lbs. I've lost weight and had my arms, thighs and tummy medyo na totone na sya. If you can't do yoga, I highly recommend cardio and pop pilates. You don't have to go to the gym, just follow Emily Skye and the Pop Pilates workout. Konting disiplina lang talaga and modification sa lifestyle. Like no sodas or sugary drinks. Just water. More healthy pa sya.

@daeyan -I'm sorry to hear about your venue problems.  Sino ba yung kausap mo prior to. Baka pwedi nyo ireiterate na fraud yung ginagawa nila since ilan kayong nakarinig nung mga certain conditions na ngayon eh tinatanggal nila. Maybe it's better to speak to the owner. Make a formal complaint. Ganyan din yung nangyari sa akin, although I've only complaint dun sa manager nila. Mahirap talaga yung overseas based, kasi nagkaroon kami ng miscommunication nung venue ko then nung umuwi ako, dun lang na resolve pero mas napamahal kami kasi ngayon eh may caterer na kami. I wish you well sis. Goodluck. Aja! Kaya natin ito.

^Missus O whats your budget and preference? Will help you find someone.

[Missus O]

^ Waahh.. before kasi my budget was smaller, kasi nagsarado  na kami ng mananahi. Labor lang bayad namin, since papagaya lang naman namin yung mga gowns and sa amin ang tela so now bago na naman.  Is 3-4K per gown na chiffon na may konting lace too low? Walang borloloy or crystals. Thanks sis sparklingjewel.  I am okay naman sa mga no name na gagawa as long as pulido ang gawa. Naghahanap din yung isang best friend ko, pero yung added stress huhuhu.

Haha this is my neverending problem!! But Ive sort of given up haha!! I have lost about 5 lbs though which I think i lost due to all the walking I did on my vacation trip. I have 1 want to lose 10 more lbs though.

Hay sis true yan! Ganyan kami nung una, maayos usapan namin nung manager. Then all of a sudden nagresign siya. So [textspeak!] acting  manager muna. Ayown. Andaming nawaive mula sa sinabi nung una naming nakausap. Pero hopefully sis maganda ang endorsement ng previous ae mo sa new ae mo ngayon. and ipush mo sila na eto usapan nyo. Dapat pala nrerecord natin thru voice record ang mga usapan. Hahahaha.

Kaya nga naiinis ako to the point na gusto kong umuwi kaso sayang pamasahe. Hahaha.

[Purple_Power]

daeyan What venue is that? Hindi pwede yang miscommunication blah blah na yan. Para alam rin ng iba kung ano ang venue na dapat nang iwasan or maging aware sa agreement.

[tiffany24]

Sis daeyan thanks! we will meet our new AE on Thursday, sana nga walang problema  at tama ka kung pwede lang na i record ang usapan sana para matibay talaga ang proof 

[pinkadoodle]

Malaking problem ko ngayon is yung damit ng flower girls. Less than 2 months to go and wala pa kaming tutu dress for the kids. Karamihan kasi ng flower girls namin are out of the country. Mga pamangkin ni h2b and mid-december pa ang uwi. I bought RTW tulle skirts na nga lang kaso parang di nila nagustuhan. Mas bongga ata ang gusto naghahanap tuloy ako ngayon ng pwedeng magrush ng tulle or tutu skirts for the kids.

[lueeeesa]

im having a problem with the lola of the groom... at first medyo hindi ko nararamdaman ang stressed kasi everything that is planned eh nasusunod ayon sa gusto ko at gusto ni groom kaso nung nalaman na ng lola ang plans ayon na kanda gulo gulo na..

original plan is just to have 3 bridesmaids kaso umentra na si lola at pwedeng gawin daw lima para maisingit yung dalawa pang apo na babae (which is groom's cousin) , eh since budgeted ang wedding and i dont want to spend to much on the abay gusto ko magstick lang ako sa tatlo dahil un lang naman ang may roles eh kung dagdagan pa ng dalawa nganga lang sila gagastosan pa ng damit although she said sagot nya damit nung plus 2,  i have to find 2 more groomsmen para may partner edi dagdag gastos ulit tapos nganga lang naman sila. i told her if ill include the 2 apos to the original lineup paano naman yung side ko na mga bestfriends ko na umaasa din sa roles dba. kaya nakakaiyak sa stress.

First usapan namin ni h2b ako bahala sa side ng girls siya naman sa boys even sa principal sponsor para everything will be fair. kaso si lola sasabihin "kung isasama mo si ganito hindi pwedeng hindi isasama si ganito pati si ganito" oh my goodness [textspeak!].

[corpse_bride]

^ hugs sis. Anong sabi ni groom?

[lueeeesa]

@corpse_bride hindi pa nga kami nakakapagusap ng ayos kasi nasa work siya and super busy kasi maraming guests sa work niya.

[pinkadoodle]

Oh no sis lueeeesa.. nightmare yan pero maganda kung makakapagusap agad kayo ni groom.. Sa ganyan din kami natagalan sa pagcomplete ng entourage, daming gusto isingit kahit di naman close sa aming couple.. Kaya mo yan sis, basta weigh all the pros and cons pag nagusap na kayo ni groom..

[Purple_Power]

lueeeesa Close ba ni Groom yung 2 cousins niya? Can he explain to Lola na sa bride ang bahala sa girls while sa groom yung mga boys? Kapag ba hindi sinunod yang Lola magwawala ba siya? Yan kasi hirap eh! masyado nilang iniinsist yung pagiging matanda nila tapos kapag hindi mo sinunod ang sama sama mo na. Nakatira ba si Groom kasama Lola niya? If so mahirap nga rin yan. What if sabihin na lang ni Groom na kumpleto na at okay na lahat? Tapos ignore na lang niya yung mga pinagsasabi ng Lola niya? Pinaka nakakaimbyerna sa wedding planning yung may iinsist yung isang parents, relatives or anyone from the family na parang birthday lang ng iisang bride/groom without thinking the other side ng ikakasal na may iniintindi rin.

[lueeeesa]

^nakapagusap na kami ng groom through phone since once a week lang siya umuuwi from work nakatira sa bahay niya ang lola niya yung dalawang cousin niya na gusto isama eh i cannot say very close pero sila sila na lang kasi natira dito sa pilipinas the rest of the family nasa Italy pero magkakalayo naman sila nakatira so no constant communication and malayo din ang age gap.

anyway ayaw din naman ni groom ang nangyayari and i told him na please tell his lola na im being fair here kasi sa part ko wala akong sinisingit na kapamilya ko sa mga groomsmen or sa side ng lalaking abay. the original line up kasi is one of the BM is his cousin too which is very close naman sakin thats why cinonsider ko din na isama (kala ko macocompromise na yun pala kulang pa). even one of the flowergirls pamangkin niya.

[lueeeesa]

the other conflictions we had (lola's groom) is yung suot ng groomsmen. she insist to wear barong na ayaw namin ni h2b. groomsmen attire is white long sleeves then suspender and bow tie. so mas mkakamura kasi bow tie and suspender lang ang sasagutin ko dahil white long sleeves kayang kayang hiramin yan or makabili sila ng mura dba. Ang sabi ng lola "ang barong masusuot pa yan kahit sang occasion" edi nagflare up na ako ang kamalditahan ko lumabas sabi ko na lang "inay, ang longsleeves polo po kahit saan pwede gamitin pansimba, pamporma, paghanap ng trabaho, pangformalan and barong sa kasalan at burol lang yan" ayon hindi siya naka salita at napa oo na lang hahaha gusto ko matawa na lang sa kaprangkahan ko.
