2017 Brides - Part 3

[maedonnas]

Mga sis! Ako lang ba nakaka feel ng pagka toxic and pressure?? My wedding's on Feb na tapos we'll be having our prenup shoot sa November na.. Bakit ganito parang panic mode nako??

his sis, same tayo feeling  Kasal ko January, prenup shoot ko, 2 weeks before the wedding. So panic mode na din ako. Lalo na sa pagresearch ng prenup loc kasi peak season December, puro fully booked.

Our wedding will be on April at sa reception venue ako sobrang hirap.
Working on a budget kaya ang hirap magdecide lalo at overseas kami, destination wedding (Tagaytay) tapos yun nga, budget wedding! hehe. Buti na lang hindi pako nagrereserve sa kahit anong venue although nagpapa pencil book kami. May the Lord direct us to the perfect venue based on what we require. The other stuff naman are booked na. Church, P&V, florist, stylist, L&S are confirmed na. Sobrang Lord, please enlighten us and guide us to the perfect venue. Happy preps ladies!

Ang haba na ng thread! Hehe
Entou dress na lang ang kulang namin considering na mid next year pa ang wedding namin XD
Minsan tuloy napapaisip ako kung masyado ba ko nagmadali magbook, kung nareview ko ba mabuti, kung ok ba lahat ng suppliers namin...
Praying na lang na sana maging okay ang wedding and tiwala na lang talaga sa mga suppliers hehe

Hi fellow brides.. Ako rin minsan panic minsan chill. Haay finally, booked na ang l&s, host and stylist! Woohoo! Naka book naman ako sa gown, and actually I raided Landmark this weekend, I looked at some of the designers, imagine an RTW will only cost yun 1,5k-1,8k and decent na sya. So I left my number, nagpapatawag ako sa mga designers para sa gown ng entourage ko. Sa labas kasi 3k pataas na lahat.

^Hi sis. Aquila Crystal Palace Tagaytay opening on November 2016. Nakita ko lang sa fb.

[exquisitegem]

Sis mloveg, after your prenup shoot, marerelax kna. Feb yung wedding ko pero chill pa lang naman ako. Maybe because I'm done with the prenup shoot last month (although di pa namin nakukuha mga pictures). Enjoy your photoshoot! ☺️

Ask ko lang mga B2Bs, what fabric did you choose for your entourage gowns? I just booked a couturier for female entourage and yung Stretch Satin na tela ang napili ko.

[MS_JanDel]

^Sis may mga time din na nakakastress magisip. Iniisip ko yung ulan! Outdoor kami. Tapos isa sa pinakamalaki kong iniisip ay yung flowers. Dito kasi kami bibili ng flowers sa manila(dangwa) for our church set up and table centerpieces tapos ibyabyahe dun.Iniisip ko what if malanta. Hahaha!

[LilaFowler]

^ Kami din outdoor pero may back up indoor area yung venue namin so di na din ako masyadong worried.

I booked accomodation yesterday. Sobrang nakaka stress lang kasi bungi bungi and nakikipag unahan with others na nagbobook kasi as much as possible magkakasama sana kami sa isang hotel.

Next na kailangan i-book are flights. Still waiting for a seat sale... pero malaki ang possibility na walang seat sale for our wedding kasi it's a week after holy week.

^^ Sis exquisitegem, infinity dresses sa akin, mas nakakasexy and super affordable. Magagamit pa nila sa ibang occasions. 

[itsKat!]

^same feelings with the other 2017 brides. February bride here also. Tama nga, minsan stress, minsan chill. Tapos pag may mga naaccomplish parang ang saya. I think habang mag lumalapit yung wedding ganon talaga, at least i am not alone. marami tayo sis. at normal pala talaga yun 

^prenup shoot by the end of october and one in december. separate shoot photo and video.


exquisitegem, i might go for duchess satin or anything na matigas na di masyadong shiny.

[MS_JanDel]

^May back up venue din kami sis pero nagwoworry ako kasi kung dun kami, the venue will be very plain since I did not invest in event styling. hahaha! We only have string lights as a decoration for our outdoor reception. Even our couple table is just a table plus some flowers and candles. hahaii..

The stress of saving up is taking a toll on me too. Minsan I feel depressed na wala na talaga ako mabili kahit ano for myself. Ako lang ata too since most of you guys have your budget already ready and in the back, kami kasi real-time saving. So yung ginagawa ko for retail therapy, we buy some essentials one by one. Like last time we bought my shoes, last month we bought my other shoes, last week we bought h2b reception shoes. Then we went looking for potential prenup wardrobe. Some retail therapy pero still for the wedding. hahaha

[LilaFowler]

Di ba flimsy yung mga infinity dress na nabibili. Minsan pag nakikita ko parang wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.

Also mahal din minsan, I inquired sa White Label before parang 4k and 5k. Yung 5k may built in bra or lining ata.

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

Sis LilaFlower, check this out, she pretty much has a very good reputation when it comes to infinity dresses for ento.

Madami din sya tela, so a lot to choose from.

^Hi sis. Aquila Crystal Palace Tagaytay opening on November 2016. Nakita ko lang sa fb.

Yay, napasearch tuloy ako! Good thing hindi pa ko nagrereserve kasi talagang hindi pa kami decided sa venue haha! Would you have an idea how much their rates kaya? I sent them a message in FB and sana makareply naman sila agad hihi. About to pay the reservation with another venue by payday kasi.

I feel you. Ganyan din kami, real time. We are both based overseas kaya every payday, reserve dito, reserve doon. We are already married kaya shared expenses talaga kami. You are not alone, sis! Feel better! hihi.

[LilaFowler]

Stressful talaga finances sa wedding.

My H2B is paying for the bulk of the wedding so it makes me feel guilty talaga when I spend so much. Parang every expense I need to justify to myself that it's good value.

He gave me the funds na pero I feel pressured to make sure na hindi masayang yung money. Gusto ko may matira!

[MS_JanDel]

^Infinity dresses are nice. I considered them too. But napansin ko na fixed yung length niya? ganun ba talaga siya? hehe. I saw a wedding where the bridesmaids are wearing infinity dresses tapos yung iba floor length and then yung iba nakalutang yung dress because they were wearing kind of really tall heels.

Actually I got so confused looking for BM dresses sa dami ng gusto ko na sumuko na ako and I just let them decide what they want! Ang request ko lang the skirt should be floor length. I'll just give them the fabric. hahaha

Sis yn061515 kami naman every payday kunin agad yung portion for saving diretso sa savings account. What's is enough for allowance and bills nalang talaga, as in nothing else. Pero iniisip ko nalang na all the sacrifices will be worth it and konting kembot nalang matatapos na kami. Next project naman! hehe.. Thank you sis!

Sis LilaFowler super stressful sis. Kami sa saving nastress, ikaw naman sis sa pagjustify ng budget niyo. hehe. Okay lang yan sis, as long as your husband see how happy you are with your wedding, good value na sa kanya yung pera na binigay niya. 

[LilaFowler]

^ Nasa bank account ko kasi parang naiisip ko pede ng downpayment ng unit. Hahaha.

Nahirapan din ako sis maghanap ng BM dresses. Andami kong candidates na inorder and sinoli. 3 months siguro ako naghanap. In the end yung first dress na nagustuhan namin lahat and unang unang dress na binili ko at sinoli ang winner namin.

[exquisitegem]

Actually, parang infinity dresses are very common na. Ok din naman sya pero di sya akma sa theme namin na vintage elegance. Tska wala akong makita na same nung motif namin. So when I visited our entou cuoturier yesterday, yung stretch satin yung pinakanagustuhan ko. Plus may color talaga nung motif namin na dusty blue and latte brown.

Tama mga sis natin dito, sometimes kahit super supportive naman si h2b at may budget naman, you still feel the need na magtira/magtipid. Nakakaguilty din kasi magsplurge hehe

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

Sis MS_JanDel you can tell the Supplier the height and measurements of your ento. 

It suits my wedding theme Tagaytay - April - Rustic - Summer.

So winner sa price and gustong gusto ng abays ko, kasi based sa experiences nila, kapag patahi, and tumaba or pumayat sila, they don't feel comfortable na sa gown during the wedding day, plus the hassle sa balik balik sa mananahi, lalo na they are busy moms, whereas sa infinity dress, laging sasakto sa fit as long as naicommunicate mo early sa Supplier yung measurements and height nila. Kaya no matter how common they are, I think it's a staple BM dress for weddings.
