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

[sparklingjewel]

Until April lang naman daw. Currently may scaffolding sya sa loob and closed part. Ingat ka sis, minsan traffic din palabas ng Greenmeadows ave, both directions pag weekdays. My husband lives in the area and takes him an hour to get to ortigas center.

[hermione28]

CTK and VV6 are both in greenmeadows diba? So walang traffic naman siguro kasi sa looban lang sya

Waaa ang hirap di ko na alam gagawin ko!

[sparklingjewel]

Ahh VV6 ka nga pala, then yes super lapit!! That part near the gate of VV6 lang nagttraffic and at least you're almost there before you encounter it Go for CTK na sis!

[brendaumnas]

I share the same sentiment sis Chili1113, huggg! I'm tired of planning the wedding and I dont want to do any DIYs or anything na feeling ko kaartehan lang. Hahaha! I easily get irritated if I hear nega comments because they don't understand the stress that we're going through.

But to make myself happier nalang, I started planning our honeymoon. Mas masaya gumawa ng itinerary, nakakarelax. hahaha!

Nagquick back read ako regarding the entourage dresses. Na forsee ko na yung ganyang eksena and minsan pagnagkanya kanya silang design minsan yung isa OA magpagawa akala ata awards night sure win. Kaya I decided to order infinity dresses to Camilla Chan kaya doon na lang sila magpakacreative ng style. Its cheaper and they can use it again and again and again.

As for my problem. Since I have a business inside our subdivision medyo marami na nakakakilala sa akin so whenever i discuss details to some of my close friend nakikinignying ibang customers and ayon kumalat na. Isa sa mga nakaalam assume na imbitado siya and nagstart na siya mangimbita ng kung sino sino... juice colored!!!

[gingerbreadwoman]

Sis lueeeesa, naku sabihin mo sis with invites only pwede pumasok haha! di ba niya alam na chosen ones lang yung mga invited? Kaloka sana masolve mo at masabihan yan.

anyway, our problem is our venue has been double booked or something like that. I'm not sure what happened. Beach wedding kami in Bataan sa early 2017. We're still fighting for our date kasi nauna naman talaga kami but ireconsider daw namin yung date at imove.

HELLO!!! Kalurkey booked na mga P/V,coord, HMUA at di na talaga pwede i-move. Hay. Our second option, Fuego is also booked na.. Goodluck nalang. Sana pwedeng honeymoon nalang agad. haha!

lueeeesa - sis in my case, my aunt asked me if paano daw yung iba kong relatives and uncles sa province, hindi daw ba papapuntahin sa wedding ko. I told her na, I will surely invite them but I cannot shoulder their expenses like airfare and accommodations. Sabi nya may wedding tradition daw sa provinces na kung sino ang ikakasal eh ipapasundo daw ang ibang distant relatives. Sabi ko sa kanya, dito po sa manila hindi po ganon, and I will be strict with our guest list. I wanted them to be present sa wedding day. Pero too much for us kung kasama pa sila sa iisipin ko. baka magpasundo at hatid pa sa airport if ever. nakakaloka lang.

^I remember sa kasal ng tito ko last year, ganyan yung mga tita ko... sinama nila lahat sa reception hanggang kaapu apuhan, naging children's party tuloy, nagtatakbuhan ang mga bata, pati mga lolo't lola na ni hindi nga kilala ng mommy ko, tapos naririnig ko sa mommy ko, reunion na daw yun, hahaha, pero hindi aware yung tito ko na reunion yun  ang laki ng naging addtional expenses sa excess heads, as in 15k, subukan nilang gawin yan sa kasal ko, ipapalabas ko sila sa security guard. 

[lueeeesa]

Haaay ganun na nga ata mangyayari. Some wedding invites hindi iniindicate yung number of reserved seats kaya jumajampack. Ang balak ko kasi ilalagay ko kung ilang reserved seats pero walang seat plan dahil super daming gusto imbitahin ng future MIL na taga batangas maloloka lang ako sa seat plan nila.

[imprincessfiona]

^Naku pag sa Batangas iyan for sure isang buong barangay pati iyong mga relatives mo sa talampakan invited iyan. My mom hails from Batangas at nakaattend na din ako ng sayawan, the night before the wedding day, because I was one of the bridesmaids. Grabeng bonggahan talaga.

[lueeeesa]

Yes! Exactly! Si MIL pa naman usually sasabihin "invite niyo si ganito kasi tinulungan kami niyan ni (insert name) noong 19kopongkopong" , "invite niyo pati yung anak ni ganire kasi yung tatay non tinulungan ako makapunta sa ganyan"

Grabe hindi ko alam kung siya ata ang ikakasal at ako ang guest. Parehas kami naiinis ni groom sa mama niya hahaha.

They just dont get the RSVP thing.. i just told them na lang. I need the rsvp kasi we cannot afford to have more people than i expect kasi catering yan. You cannot make paluto on the spot. They too need number of guests.. hindi tulad sa probinsya na pasok.lang ng pasok sa bakuran kain kain lang kayo. I told them too na sana one of us ng groom ay kilala si guest kasi kaloka naman kung papapicture sila sau tapos after picture magbubulungan kau 'sino yun'. Yung.intimate dream.wedding ko naglaho na sa hangin. Hais

[Purple_Power]

^Kaloka nga yan! Bakit kayong couples ang tatanaw ng utang na loob sa mga tumulong sa MIL mo? Hindi naman enough ang mapakain ng isang araw sa kasal para makatanaw ng utang na loob eh! Eh di magbigay siya ng regalo every Christmas kung sino man ang tumulong sa kanya.

I strongly suggest lakihan niyo yung RSVP yung pansinin talaga as in yung STRICTLY allowed seats.

[lueeeesa]

^ hay until now i dont get really her point but hindi naman ako makatanggi, besides sila naman ang gagastos sa food. Ang ayoko lang kasi maraming tao na hindi namin kilala both ni h2b. Every bride wants their wedding to be fun yung talagang nagpaparticipate lahat kasi kilala kayo para hindi awkward magpalakpak. Iba kasi yung saya pagmagkakakilala kayo eh. Kaso hay juice colored talaga

[brendaumnas]

hi lueeeesa, i think sa case mo, si hubby mo na ang ipakausap mo sa mom nya. kasi mahirap naman talaga makipagtalo sa mother in law, lalo na, sila maysagot sa food. magpa-separate party nalang sya sa birthday nya para mainvite lahat ng tumulong sa kanya before. hahaha!

[kaitlynmischa]

hi everyone!
just started preparing for my wedding since April 2017 pa naman kami. And so far, in 2 mos we've booked some of our major suppliers already.

Kaya lang pag naeexcite ako I tend to be so impulsive. Nagbook ako ng MUA from a bridal fair last Feb, pero nakakita ako ng better MUA than my current.

Now, I don't know how to tell him in a nice way na hindi ko na sya kukunin. Since I understand that nireserve nya yung April 2017 for me. Pero maaga pa naman, I'm sure hindi naman short notice. Pero hindi ko talaga alam paano sasabihin.

Some advice please?

Thanks

[vhena14]

^hi sis, welcome sa GT! regarding sa problem mo, meron ka na bang HMUA para sa entourage? Kasi pwede naman na sa entourage nalang yung nabook mo sa bridal fair or sa sponsors, Yung better na MUA syempre for you and groom...

[kaitlynmischa]

hello vhena14  thanks

wala pa ako for my entourage, naisip ko rin yan as an option, kaso I remember we have a contract and that indicates na dapat 30k ang babayaran ko, so if ililipat ko sya sa entourage baka hindi rin sya pumayag cos I'm sure he can find other bookings na 30k ang ibabaya, kapag sa akin kasi mas mababa.

Balak ko sana to make an excuse na lang, cos there's no easy way to say it to him. But I might take that advice into consideration. Hindi ko lang talaga alam paano sabihin. 

[vhena14]

^ay, ang mahal ng 30k, hehe, kalahati lang nyan yung package ko sa HMUA ko eh...
IMHO, wala talagang better way of telling to him na nababack out ka na, pero mas maaga mas maganda  para makakuha pa sya ng ibang clients... check mo sa contract pero usually kapag nagback out forfeited na ang DP... some naman, depende kung early, you can get 50% of the DP...

[kaitlynmischa]

Thanks sissy! Yeah sige I will tell him na. Yeah forfeited na nga yung DP. Thank you!

Oh my god.. i feel so guilty na hindi ako agad nag update ng experience ko with Kirk Soberon. I exprienced the same with him. My wedding was last july 2015, i booked him october 2014, and got my first fitting on the same day. I booked him for the whole entourage, so just imagine how stress i am come May, at wala pa siyang mapakita sakin na decent dress for my entourage sobrang layo sa designs and yung gown ko lining pa din! October pako nag fitting! The second fitting was rescheduled a couple of times and gave so much excuses! Sobrang stress ako umiiyak na talaga ako sa fiance ko. I gave him til 2nd week of May to make good of his obligations, pero wala talaga. Ayoko sana gamitin sakanya pag ka abugado ko pero sinagad niya talaga ang pasensya ko. Ended up buying rtw gown and now everytime nakakakita ako ng wedding gown nalulungkot ako because i never got to have may dream wedding gown because of him. Siya lang talaga ang nagbigay ng problema sa wedding ko.
