2017 Brides - Part 3

[sunnnyside]

For me, madali mag-plan (kahit 6 months prior pa yan) if may enough budget.  Kasi if tipid mode, ang hirap mag-hanap ng pasok sa budget tapos pasok din sa standard/taste ng couple.  Effort talaga sa pag-research and collecting quotations.

I've been researching for suppliers since January and up until now wala pa kami church and venue (August 2017 wedding namin). Panic mode na ko    We found a reception venue na ok and pasok sa budget tapos ayaw naman ng in-laws so they suggested another venue and sila na daw magbabayad kahit mahal.  Tapos biglang nadagdagan yung guest list, so hindi na kami fit sa first choice namin and their suggested venue nila so eto hanap na naman ako ng iba. Until makahanap ako ng venue, hindi rin kami maka-settle ng church kasi kelangan magkalapit sila since maulan ang August at ayoko ma-traffic.

Sobrang stressful

sis totoo yan, budget ang pinakamalaking issue. Madami ka pang oras, 1 yr pa. Baka naman pwedeng kayo na ni h2b magdecide sa venue at # of guests. Yung mom ko din nag-offer na magdadagdag na lang para may ibang bisita na ma-invite pero I stick with our plan. Ayoko sana ng may mga hindi namin ka-close hangga't pwede.

Hi sis kaitlynmischa im may 2017 bride. You may try to ask your L&S usually they have it too. for those i have asked, 15K for 9x12 led wall i got the lowest quote from 5th element. I'm not sure of the quality though,but i might get it from metrotech as they were recommended by my otd @ 18K .

Hi Sis, I inquired from Metrotech they quoted me 25k.  Mas mura bigay sayo. Waaahhh! Try ko rin ask si 5th element. Thank you!

Oo nga Sis, naiisip ko nga wine or champagne.

[nerakmd]

^ you might want to check WIT (luxury wine by the glass), saw them in one of the bridal fairs and mukhang ok naman sila. They sell imported wines in 100ml tubes. You can choose what type of wine you want and they have different types of packaging din.

 For female sponsors, I'm thinking of giving them succulents. Cactus and Canvas have large succulent arrangements in wooden bowls that I'm sure our ninangs will love.

Hi girls! This is not a "problem" pa naman and i dont have an idea kung san pwede ipost ito. so, here it is...how do you deal with in-laws? particularly between the bride-to-be and mother-of-the-groom. well, in my case kasi, mother of the groom is in abroad. so, uuwi lang sila (with the sister) for the future wedding namin ng son nya. they requested na august 2017 ang wedding kasi yun yung schedule ng uwi nila. usually 1 month or so naman ang bakasyon diba? so, august to september pa siguro ang wed. anyway, lately kasi naiisip ko parang ayaw ko ng august kasi hindi naman significant samin ni bf yung month. paano ko kaya ioopen kay mother yun? kay h2b, madali lang eh. hays.

[meixin]

I think h2b mo should be the one to talk to her, mas gamay niya shempre quirks ng mom nya e. Though ang naiisip ko about it is why did they request din yung august, is it because may naibook na talagang uwi at that time para di dodoble ang gastos? I mean before you say anything about the date change maybe consider din why they requested that from you

^Eto din ang major major prob ko. Tapos nung weekend nagpunta kami S&R, nakasale ang wines and whiskey so bumili na kami ng Jim Beam for Ninong, Buy 2 Take 1. Malakilaki din ang natipid namin. Then for Ninang naman, meron nakapack na body gel and body lotion na Buy 1 Take 1 din at Php 699 so bumli na din kami. hahaha. Chineck ko yung expiry 2019 pa naman dun sa bath essentials, tapos yung whiskey hindi naman daw siya nageexpire pag hindi nabuksan. Original budget namin is 10k , 500 each per PS, ang nagastos lang namin is nasa Php 8,300.

Sa entou naman, female, yung favor ko is drawstring bags by How Toteful at 250 each. check niyo FB and IG nila sis. Pwede din magpacustomize kung marami naman oorderin niyo. Then sa male, ICONIC socks ang favor namin.

hi sis! Dapat nga si h2b mo ang kumausap sa mom nya. Kung matagal nang nakasched yung uwi nila, baka nga sinuggest na yun na lang yung wedding date nyo para hindi madoble yung gastos. Syempre your h2b would want his mom to be present on your special day din. In case naman na ayaw mo talaga ng August, propose the month when you plan your wedding to be tapos ishoulder nyo na lang yung fare nila.

[exquisitegem]

Just an update mga sis! We will be getting Amante Fleurs for Church Styling and Bridal and Entou Bouquet. Still on the process of discussing details with him.

[MS_JanDel]

^Hi sis okay ka na ba kay Amante? Maganda nga mga gawa nila sis, although parang may nabasa akong review na minsan parang hindi nagagawa yung napagusapan. Pero sa reception ata yun sis. Share ko lang hehe. Hindi ka nagtry kay Inah sis? Si Inah ang kunin namin sa bouquets Medyo mahal yung quote niya sa amin pero naintindihan ko naman kasi puro ecuadorian roses ang flowers ko tapos my flower crown ang bmaids and flower girls. hehe

[exquisitegem]

Di pa kami nakapagdown sis pero aside from him, si IL Fiore yung nakausap namin.
I planned to scrimp sa church style kaso si h2b sabi nya, go lang kahit medyo pricey basta maganda. Kaya ayun... ano fb page ni Inah sis? Nag-i-style din ba sya ng church?

^Fullblooms Flower Shop by: Inah ang FB page niya sis, pwede mo din siya imessage sa FB niya mismo, Inah Anupol name niya. Ang bait niya kausap sa chat at sa tawag. Nung nagbackread kasi ako sis sa florists na thread, si Inah ang may pinakamagandang reviews. Yes sis nagaayos din siya ng church and reception. Try mo sis maginquire sa kanya. Baka naman she can work on your budget

how much yung quote nya sau sis? D bale, mas kami din gusto din sana tipidin kaso [textspeak!] ko kay hubby mostly ng kinukuhanan sa sde and photos is church, preps and konti lang sa venue. Kaya dapat maginvest na konti, pero kung nice na yung church mo kahit less lang keri na. Pero yung bouquet ko vatel gagawa.
