[belle_v2g]

^ok yan to inquire this early. me too, i started asking around for a moh dress even if wedding is more than a year away pa, hehe! so far, patricia santos, haydee garcia and andrea tetangco are the prompt respondents but only andrea and haydee gave their starting rates.

^Chili1113 Kakaexcite sketches nya no? Ang ganda ganda hahaha esp compared to other ento designers who take the sketching for granted. Di talaga nakakahiya sa ento! She is really so nice I asked her for like 15 designs to choose from and she obliged din. I think this is where we got what we paid for. Ever since i booked her i never had headaches on the gowns na, and i have finally have peace of mind that it will turn out well because di tinipid. Really glad you liked her, too! She messaged me yesterday offering some new shades of powerknit if i liked. Love! <3

belle_v2g: Hmmm I wonder how much Patricia's gowns are now. Last year it was only 10-12 k for fully beaded MOH gowns hehe

sparklingjewel: Wow 15 designs! That's really good =) I showed na the sketches of Teena Sabrina to a few friends. LOL... here come the comments na!!! My sis/MOH--- mas type the bridesmaid's gown and is requesting that. One of my bridesmaids feel like she will look shorter in the bridesmaids' gowns. Sorry nalang sila. I am OC and I would prefer for all of them to have more or less the same design of dress kasi. I think I will ask for a couple of more designs to choose from though =)

LOL ang aarte lang talaga ng ento ko. See? That is why I couldnt send them to a super inconvenient location for fittings, or send them to a studio that isnt so nice.

[belle_v2g]

thaaaanks chili for the info same din rate binigay ni andrea for my peg. i might recommend her to my friend. haaay kaya til now gtalker ako haha! di na ko grumaduate!

[Chili1113]

^Based on fb pics lang belle_v2g parang best value for money si Haydee Garcia. But her location is a bit far for my entourage. hehe =)

^ Pat quoted me 20k for a bridesmaid-ish gown with tulle. Wedding guest lang ako. Not fully beaded. I wanted to go for a gown with tulle sans the beads pero hindi ko na tinuloy dahil malaki quote nya.

[sparklingjewel]

^chili1113 Haha oh my medyo maarte pala sila, good thing you went with Teena na nga. Location-wise and design-wise di ka na mapapahiya. You can request more designs naman and even send pegs I didn't think my ento would be maarte but just to be sure what i did was provide them  many options (i think around 10) to choose from para di na sila magrequest anything outside of the choices. Gumana naman hehe. Just gave Teena directions na sino pwede/ di pwede magpareho ng designs and such. Good thing magaan sya kausap.

My whole ento had their measurement taking last Sunday and Monday. Sila namili ng style na gusto nila and I'm very happy na okay lahat yung designs nila sa designer ko kahit napaka reasonable (I don't want to use the word cheap) ng rates na binigay nya sa kin. Yung iba kasing ento ko may lace ang gusto then yung sa mothers may beading and drapings pa kaya I would understand kung medyo mag aalangan sya sa binigay nilang designs pero to my surprise walang reklamo sa kanya! Lahat din sila ginawan nya ng sketch at tinulungan nya pa ko magdecide ng color combination dahil naoverwhelm ako sa dami ng swatches na pinakita nya! Kaya naman I would like to recommend my Fairy Godmother sa ibang sissies dito na looking for quality gowns at a very reasonable price! For sure di ako mapapahiya sa ento ko dahil pulido at maganda talaga bagsak ng mga gowns nya. Check out Mikee Sangco Designs in fb. Nasa QC ang shop nya pero may bahay sila sa Parañaque so dun na lang magfifitting ang mga ento ko na taga south. Willing din sya makipagmeet sa labas for the client's convenience. If ever gusto nyong mag ask ng rates nya, pwedeng nyo kong i-pm muna para sabihin nyo na nirefer ko kayo so he could also give you a huge discount!

HI Mga Sis

I'm just new here and naghahanap ako ng mga nice and affordable wedding dress. My budget is 30k and i know naman sa budget ko medyo mahirap maghanap ng magandang wedding gown na ganun yung price. May mga masusuggest ba kyo na pwede ko ma-search. parang palapit na kasi ng palapit wedding ko kaya medyo nakakakaba na. Thank you mga sis! - Judy

[Chili1113]

Judy there are a lot of nice RTW dresses in Ivory and White for around 34k up. But sometimes they have bridal fair rates of 10% off so that is very close to your budget na. That includes alterations and a veil already.

Ako nga, I already booked my designer before I visited Ivory and White. But sana if I knew about it I might have just bought a dress there since OK the quality talaga for the price. The gowns dont look super expensive naman, pero OK na talaga most of the gowns look more expensive than what it costs.

[chuajud]

Thanks sis @chili1113 sa recommendation mo I just checked ivory and white's ig i'll try to book an appointment with them. Ang nice ng mga rtw gowns nila parang nagfifit talaga yung sukat sa bride kahit RTW so feeling ko may mga magfifit din naman sakin na gowns dun kasi nasa medium naman ako. hehe. ang nice din nung concept nila na pwede ka magpacustom made ng cover  up sa kanila pag gusto mo may sleeves <3 <3 <3

If you don't mind what name ng designer mo para macheck out ko din. Honestly, medyo naglurk lurk na din ako before dito but now na final na talaga na magpapakasal tyaka ko cinareer ang pagchecheck at napansin ko sa mga wedding gown designers ay medyo pricy talaga sila. at napansin ko na talagang na mga rtw shops ngayon sa manila at sila yung nagooffer ng mga affordable price. I plan to visit muna siguro ivory and white and interested din ako sa The Bridal Room dito ko din sya nakita parang ang gaganda ng mga gowns nila and ang ganda ng shop nila sana may makita din ako dun. May mga suggestions pa ba kayo na mga RTW shops sa manila and kung nagcucustom made din sila? TIA mga sis.

hi girls, we've been trying to look for very affordable ento dresses. then may nagsuggest bakit di na lang kami magrent. may alam ba kayong shop na nagpaparent ng entourage gowns.

[bzbee]

had my first fitting with mel orlina. its lining palang pero kilig na. next month daw buo na yung gown so im looking forward to that. good thing also that we have monthly fittings so i can keep track of my figure. lol pumayat na daw ako since i got my measurements last month pero need more diet pa for my target weight. 4 months to go!

[aylatskie]

Hi sis chuajud, my gown was made by Adora couture worth 25k I gave her my budget kasi. Hehhe.

[juwie]

[bzbee]

[juwie]

^ 3rd fitting ko kahapon sis. Di pa done pero almost there.. yes sis nakakakilig. Nakaka excite magpunta dun lagi. PS: na dengue pala sya. Kaya pala 1 week sya walang update sa IG. Hehe. Pero ok na raw sya now. ☺

[bzbee]

^ ay oo nga daw, she wasn't there during my first fitting dahil nasa hospital. medyo nagworry nga ako na wala siya kasi baka may kailangan siyang iadjust or something sa lining. pero todo asikaso naman yung assistants niya kaya naging comfortable na din ako. exciting!! almost done ka na!! by the way sis, have you tried to rent gowns kay mel for prenup?

[Angiejune19]

[juwie]

Sis bzbee, don't worry, nung lining fitting ko rin wala sya, out of town. Pero my gown is turning out well naman so far. yup nag rent ako ng 2 gowns sa kanya for my prenup. Walang bayad, request lang nila na ipa dry clean mo upon return. ☺
