[vhena14]

^April pa next year ang kasal ko, dito kami sa QC, pero overseas kami both ni h2b nagwowork 

[fidelity88]

^Sis mapoo ang galing naman! So blessed yung couple pag yung in-laws ang nagsponsor ng wedding. Hehe.

Agree ako sis na sunod ka na lang kay MIL pag in-insist nya yun. advantage mo din yun. Gandahan mo na lang din second gown mo. Hehe. Kailan wedding nyo?

Prepare 300k for a simple church wedding.. 😘😍😀 got married last September 2015

[mapoo]

Congrats independentgirl.  Onga daw po e. Sabi 200k to 300k daw ngayon for a church wedding.

Hi sis fidelity88. Oo swerte kame na may sponsors so push na namen to. Wala naman kame nakikitang hadlang. Lol. Bukod sa medyo bata pa ako. Pero we made sure naman na we got blessings from both sides para walang problema. 

Goodluck sis vhena14. Mahaba habang panahon pa para sa preps mo.

I am so happy! 1 week before the wedding and we are now even more underbudget!

This is due to the last round of RSVP. Many people cannot attend our wedding mostly due to being out of the country/town as it is the height of summer vacation and the weekend after elections.

We will only have 200 guests vs 250, which is a huge in terms of savings. I only wished I booked my super duper top photo and video choices heheh kasi kayang kaya naman pala ng budget.

By cutting 50 guests we are going to save about 130,000 (on food, drinks, table decor etc.) and it feels really good to save that much.

[vhena14]

^wow sis Chili1113, I'm happy that you finally sorted out that guest list problem nyo 
waaaahhh 1 week to go, chill ka nalang para walang breakouts and wrinkles! Happy chilling!

[pinaydiaspora]

^^ That's a huge amount for savings Chili1113 at least you guys have some extra for your house. Congrats in advanced!

[bollin_pop]

^^^Wow Sis Chili1113!
That's a lot of Savings! Ang galing!
Congrats in advance!

[Chili1113]

Thanks Vhena14, pinaydiaspora, and bollin_pop! =) Budgeting is really difficult teehee so the extra savings was a pleasant surprise.

We initially planned a 400k wedding budget but as of the moment we are on a 600k na. Naloloka na si fiance. 😂 Thank goodness for the outpouring blessings that the Lord is giving to us. Kaya naman. Lol! Pero feeling ko kulang pa ang 600k lol!

[Foxyness]

Napapatawa nalang ako kasi lagi nyang bukambibig na "Hon ha 600k nalang talaga ha.." and "pasok ba sa budget yan?" Lol!😂

[baby bones]

Initially, we agreed on setting the ceiling at 250-300k for our simple church wedding. Now that we're almost done with all our suppliers, it's at 700k hahahaha!  Hopefully that's it

[marbleslice]

^same as Foxyness initial budget was 400k to have an simple yet beautiful wedding... i foresee our total wedding expenses would be at 850k na. we agreed na 900k would be the ceiling amount na.

trying our best not to splurge on minor suppliers with low priority such as cake, flowers, etc.

[jakh]

Initial budget was 300k dahil sa province gaganapin. I thought mas makakamura ako and would be able to work around that budget but when I started scouting rates from suppliers, looks like ours will balloon to 500k.

[pinaydiaspora]

Girls can definitely relate especially if you have a theme on mind. But, if practicality will be the top priority you can naman. Just stick lang with the budget. There's a lot of suppliers that have the same quality as that of those with super expensive rates. Just do your research lang.

[fidelity88]

our initial budget was 250k. Budget wedding lang kasi kami. pero ngayon 400k naaaa. haha! 33% pa lang ang paid namin. yung 67% need pa pag-ipunan and we only have 7 remaining months to save! HAHA! thank God okay naman ang cash flow namin so far.

[selyado]

yung anak ng friend ko got married three years ago.  sa tagaytay ang venue.  closely related sila sa mga tolentinos of tagaytay.  umabot daw ng P1M ang gastos.  pareho namang nagwo work sa singapore yung couple.  tapos mga bigatin pa mga sponsors.  pero 100 people lang yata invited kasi maliit lang daw yung venue ng kasal/reception. basta, di nga kami invited sa kasal

another friend's daughter is getting married next month.  heto simple lang kasalan maski mayaman naman yung magulang nung ikakasal.  biruin mo ang wedding gown eh sa divisoria pinagawa P15k daw.  si mother of the bride P3500 nga lang daw gown nya.  pero invited kaming mga matrona ha   una nga sa taytay daw magpapagawa ng gown P60k daw kasama na gown ng bridesmaid.  pero nung sinabi kong try nila sa 168 magtingin ng gown, ayun pinatulan nga.

[imyerdamsel]

^^Same with you sis @fidelity88 Our initial budget is P250k. Pero ang nangyari venue and catering palang namin yon Mukang mag exceed din kami ng 400k for a simple indoor garden wedding. Right now we're trying our best to research for midrange suppliers with good quality.

Although this is a one-day event only at medyo may konting panghihinayang sa gastos, iniisip na lang namin na minsan lang naman to gagawin at pareho pa kaming panganay sa family. It will be worth it kaya konting sacrifice lang for a simple but beautiful wedding

[fidelity88]

^sis imyerdamsel as of now, booked na kami lahat ng suppliers. kaya freeze na kami sa booking. kasi baka mag-super overbudget na kami. haha! sa July start na kami ng processing ng papers. True! Once in a lifetime lang kaya go na. ahaha! pikit mata na lang. I agree, yun din gusto namin, simple but beautiful. Kahit papaano kaya naman. ipon ipon lang talaga. Happy preps sissy!

[miraclefaith523]

Initially ang budget lang namin 300k for province wedding. Pero ngayon nag re compute ako mukhang aabot kami ng 500k. Wag naman sana! Haha! 7 months before wedding na lang, wala pa kami hotel, susuot ng entourage at ni groom, souvenirs and invitations. Sana nga pag gising ko tapos na ang wedding. Ayoko na ma stress!
