Paying it forward
With two months away from our April 18, 2017 - Tagaytay wedding, we're almost done madami pang time, we are both based abroad, so the rest needs to be arranged/attended to na talaga when we come home like my gown fittings, pending documents etc.

We tried our very best to avoid as much work to be done, lalo na sa mga gowns and fittings since we are based abroad, ayaw namin makaabala masyado sa friends or family members and mastress sa communication with the modista haha, because I noticed yun ata yung part na medyo magulo talaga, we also don't want our entourage and parents mahassle sa mga fittings, and balik balik sa mananahi etc tapos only to hear na di sila happy with the output, kaya we embraced RTW with open arms, ultimo sa prenup outfits. Aside sa documents na kailangan talaga namin tulong ng parents/siblings, iniwasan namin, makaabala ng ibang tao, so lahat effort ko haha at ng Suppliers, most especially Ms. Kris and Sir Willie. I hope this list helps our future Tagaytay Brides din like me who started with no idea at all kung san magsisimula haha! Good luck sa preps!
Note : Super happy namin right now, sa preps, sa timeline, sa lahat-lahat, we are enjoying and savouring each moment, kilig, enthusiastic and very much looking forward na sa wedding, prenup and honeymoon. As per the budget, we're still on track, so far, we feel na magexceed kami sa budget na 700k pero konti lang, and that's because lahat halos ng "wants" namin naisama namin, and we felt, na di naman kami super nag scrimp.
