Ninong and Ninang

[tiffany24]

Hi girls, i can't seem to find an appropriate thread for this and i'm just wondering, how did you guys come up with your principal sponsor list? Kakilala niyo ba lahat, ka close yung mga ninang and ninong niyo, kailangan ba married na talaga sila and how did you ask them? TIA 😊

[yannuh]

^normally, personal choice ni hubby then ako din. then we consulted our parents tapos nagdagdag pa sila kasi 8 pairs kami. bale officemates, relatives, family friends ninong/ninang namin:)

[tiffany24]

Thanks sis yannuh. May mga personal choice din kami ni H2B then may suggestion sila parents kaso yung iba hindi namin ka close pero dahil suggestion push. Though nakausap na nila parents, we still need to ask/visit them personally di ba?

[yannuh]

depende sis. pero kasi kami since relatives na namin and yung iba asa province/out of the country pa, tinawagan na lang namin. si hubby nag intindi nung sa side nya and ako naman sa side ko.

[tiffany24]

Got it sis. Yung iba nakausap na naman talaga namin via FB nga lang.. siguro sa pagbigay na lang ng invitation namin sila makikita. Kasi siyempre medyo nakakahiya to visit them without bringing anything. Mga simpleng bagay na pinoproblema ko haha. Thanks sis 😊

Sis tiffany, sa amin 1 pair lang kami. Nagusap kami ni hubby na sino ba yun tao na gusto namin mag guide sa marriage life namin and sino ba yun nagkaroon talaga ng impact sa amin either individually or kami as a couple. Then we came up with an arrangement na akin ninong kaniya ninang. Tapos days before the wedding namatay yun supposedly ninang kaya pinalit namin yun super close ko na family friend. Ayun.

Sa muslim tradition ang principal sponsor hindi ko masyado gets meaning. Kasi kami ni hubby 30 pa lang pero naging principal sponsora na. Nakakaloka nga. Lahat nung katabi ko sa table pwede ko ng lola or nanay.

[yannuh]

^hehe sis kami din me ninong na officemate ni hubby, early 30's pa lang yun:) kasi parang barkada nya saka medyo matagal na ding married so somehow maguguide din kami sa married life namin:)

[janagirl]

People we look up to and who has great influence samen. Bosses, ex-bosses, uncles & aunties and former college professor. Choice namin talaga lahat.

Hi, sis! Kami ni fiancé namili. Ang ginawa niya kuha siya (ng couple) from 2 sides of the family then yung parents ng best friend niya. Gusto daw niya lahat ng napili niya kasi successful yung married life nila so far.

Yung akin naman ang may mga "ok, fine. Bakit kasi tinira niyo sakin?" Haha sama ba? Like yung only brother ng dad ko. Although kinuha na ng sister ko before yung wife niya. So ulit si tita, bago si tito. Then isang sister ng mom ko na medyo ok naman na yung relationship namin ngayon. Dati kasi inis ako sa kanila dahil sa family business. Then the rest choice ko na like itong kapitbahay namin na close family friend & ninong & ninang ko sa binyag.

Tig-3 pairs kami, 6 lang kasi limit ng Church. Sayang nga gusto sana namin 8.

[blackgreen]

Hahaha sis yannuh, at least yun sa inyo matagal ng married. Eh kami ilang days pa lang tapos sponsors na agad. Hahaha..

Meron ako napuntahan wedding, principal sponsors nila lahat ng may mataas na position sa kung saan saan na napuntahan nila.

for us, we chose people who have had a great influence in our lives and who all have wonderful marriages. the decision was made by my husband and myself. however, my parents requested that i add their friends from our church charismatic group who are close to them and they believe will also make a great example for us so we added them, too. we have 4 pairs but only 2 pairs will be at the wedding since the other 2 pairs (my husband's choices) are in the u.s. and won't be able to attend   

[tiffany24]

Thanks sa input mga sis.. almost the same pala with our method of selection, yung mother ng bestfriend ko, yung principal and teacher dati ni H2B, yung ninong ko nung binyag, someone who helped me get a scholarship in college tas yung previous boss ko that i idolize, mga taong may impact sa buhay namin kaso yun nga may suggestion din sila parents na mga hindi namin ka close.. dun lang siguro kami awkward but i guess pwede naman. Yung boss ko is just 30 and single but he agreed to be our PS too sabi ko na lang sakanya madami naman kaming lessons na natutunan sa kanya eh 😊

Hello sa inyong lahat...

I have a question po.. how do you inform your ninangs to wear gown na same ng color motiff? Also, is it better to give them tela or sila na lang bahala sa material na tyoe nila?

Thanks po! 

[miah]

hi,

kami 5 pairs lang and couple talaga pinili namin na ninong at ninang para share din sila sa sponsors gift... and pinili namin yung talagang sure na makakapunta sila yung hindi na kailangan ng proxy... and mga tito and tita sa both sides namin yung pinili namin  =)

[shygirlme]

Initially 3 pairs lang dapat kukunin namin. No.1 sa list parents ng bestfriend ng husband ko na always andyan for us. Tinuring na anal si husband and nung naging kami tinuring din nila akong anak. Then yung 2 close na tito at tita ng husband ko na mabait samin. Dinagdagan namin ng 4 pairs from our office, Ninong at Ninang nung binyag. Hindi kami kumuha ng hindi namn kilala. Gusto nga ng father in law ko kunin boss nya na sikat, kasi malaki daw magbigay ng gift. Pero hindi namin kinuha. Kasi hindi kami after sa gift. Gusto namin andyan lagi to guide us.

Hi, sis! Most na nakita ko sa mom ko nagbibigay sila ng tela yung day na pagpunta nila to say na kukuhain siya na ninang. I dunno lang if that's a Chinese thing. Meron lang 1 time na nagbigay lang ng swatcho ng tela, yun from pure Filipino couple. HTH!

sis kami when we gave them the invites, minention namin to wear a specific color: shade of brown/nude/cream/beige gown/dress. Then for ninongs naman, sabi namin naka barong tagalog sila. Nung wedding day, naging OK naman itsura and uniform naman sila so happy kami:)

Re: pagbibigay ng tela, it really depends on you. if super OC ka and you still have the budget, gow na dun:) kami kasi sis kanya-kanyang damit na sila basta same color/shade:) baka nga naman may ganun na silang damit so no need na bumili/magpatahi:)

[tiffany24]

Agree with sis yannuh shades of  brown/nude/cream/beige kasi usually meron na sila nun (hopefully!!! haha) and barong tagalog for the ninong and ninang. Baka mahirapan pa kasi sila humanap ng gagawa ng gown or magastos din for you and for them. unless siguro i request nila.. 

[twinxz]

we'll have 5 pairs. all couples whom we personally know (and vice versa), who can guide us sa married life namin, who have great impact sa mga buhay namin.

I also have a pair na 30+ pa lang but the wife was my 1st and greatest mentor sa worklife ko
