hi guys! would you know if yung garden venue nila ay lalagyan nila ng damo? kasi gusto ko ma-green ang magiging venue ng reception ng wedding if ever eh kaso parang wala pa masyadong damo yung sa CDC! Hehe!

True, gumaganda na styling nila, saka yung pinost ni Sir kahapon, yun talaga yung target ko sana gamitin for my garden reception, yung all white na rustic themed stuff nila. At one point nagandahan ako na napaisip ako mag indoor na din haha. Pero sayang yung April summer wedding ko I'll make use of the garden na.

Sis, nagstart na sila landscape, I'm sure it wont end there, so as the drapings etc, I'm sure dahan dahan ma achieve na natin mga gusto natin, to think na kakastart palang naman eh not bad na diba?  :D Kaya palagay ko sa wedding ko and lalo na sa mga 2018 weddings nyo malaking malaki na improvement, lalo na mukang di naman sila kakapusin sa resources almost everyday sila may kasal.  :D

Sis, 60k ang CDC ko and 120k ang L&J for our April 2017 wedding.

I attended a wedding here last night. Honest review: ok ang place tho we didnt see the view kasi madilim na. Not sure if L&J did the styling pero ok siya. But the food. OMG it was so blah. Nagulat ako tbh. Hindi ko inexpect na ganon kagandang venue and styling and the bride said magandang reviews sa food and her FT went well tapos ganon ang food pala. No one in our table stood up again to get more.

monopoly19 thank you for the honest feedback, parang ngayon ko lang narinig na ganito klase ng food ng L&J of the hundreds of review and feedback that I've read. I hope this is a once in a lifetime thing, or else we are screwed!  :'(

^^hi mga sis! Since friend ko si sir willie sa fb minessage ko yung bride na kinasal kahapon, sabi nya na masarap daw yung food at gustong gusto daw ng mga bisita niya kaya nagulat sya ng nalaman niya na may comment dito sa gt. So sinend ko sa kanya. And siguro kakaisip, nadetect niya kung sino yung nagcomment. Hindi na lang daw niyA papansinin basta masaya sya at kinasal sila. Almost all daw ng guest good feedbacks kaya nagulat siya na may isa pala syang friend na hindi nagustuhan. Hehe.. isa lang daw comment niya yung lechon lang malamig na. Kasi maaga din ata naorder tapos ang lamig daw sa tagaytay kahapon. So ayon, good reviews talaga. Depende na lang talaga sa standard ng tao lalo na yung mga picky sa food kaya nakakapagcomment ng hindi maganda dahil sa taas ng expectations.

^raiizea - Hi sis! Yes, si Dangwa Florist yung sakin. Gusto muna niya makita yung place nagpapa send ng picture nung venue si ate arleen para magka idea daw siya kung pano pagagandahin. Hehe. Amante fleurs maganda sis pero pricey din kasi yung all in package nila with ento and ceremony.  :( Si Tita Sonyas naman sis nakita ko sila nung sa booth nila sa Tagaytay wedding expo sa TICC nung October. Pinakita ko yung mga pegs kong designs and from there nagbigay ng price range. Hindi kaya ng budget sis. Hehe.  :P :( Cocktail hour naman, isa pang problem ko yan.. Di ko alam anong iaadd. Hay. Buti ka pa madaming artistic friends. Haha! Ako iilan lang. LOL. Nagpatulong lang ako sakanila gumawa ng AVP more on techy kasi sila. LOL. I agree na madami pang improvements ang mangyayari jan sa CDC. My hopes are high. Fingers crossed.  :)

Napansin ko lang sa mga wedding ngayon sa CDC na pinost ni Kuya willie hindi nila inu-utilize yung garden area, sayang naman... kayo ba sis may plano kayo with the garden? Kami kasi balak lagyan ng Cocktail tables un saka don namin balak ipalabas yung malaking LOVE na sign ni kuya willie, and siguro yung photobooth dun nadin and registration area. Hehe.

ahhh kaya pala nalaman ng friend ko ang comment ko kasi sinabi mo. I actually feel terrible until now kasi nalaman pa niya ito. I was just giving my honest feedback. Of course I was happy na nakasal sila and wala naman ako masasabi sa kanilang wedding. It was just my opinion on the food served, and the food alone. I didn't even say na it was awful or too salty or too ganito. I said it was blah. Maybe it was served cold?

Maganda ang set up, wala ako masasabi sa lugar. Madaming parking space, maluwag, maaliwalas, maganda ang lights. Courteous waiters, magandang set up. May flowers pa naka hang sa ceiling. The backdrop was amazing. We were seated by the comfort room and walang amoy or anything like that.

All in all the wedding was spectacular. I didnt come for the food anyway. Super sad lang na may screenshot pa palang naganap at nalaman pa ni bride/my friend ang comment ko. I have apologized to her at hope we can get past this.

Sorry din sa mga clients ni L&J. I didnt mean to offend anyone. Im sure it was just my taste buds. Among thousands of people that have tasted their food, ano ba naman ang isang tao na nagsabi na blah ang food nila dba?

ChixC18 April 18, 2017 ako Sis, I was supposed to get married on April 18, 2018 pero nainip na kami haha! So medyo with a tight budget and schedule (OFW Couple), so pinush namin na mas mapaaga, but we are happy and content as early as now sa kung anong klase mang wedding magkaron kami, again it's the essence of getting married ang mahalaga samin haha mushy!  :D

I feel blessed that with a limited budget, (around 700k, give or take) maexperience namin yung dream wedding that we never knew and thought we wanted. Pero ganon pala yun pag kasal mo na, heaven ang feeling!  :D Haha! We are supposed to spend our honeymoon sa Maldives right after the wedding, pero we both came to a conclusion na ipostpone muna kasi super gahol sa oras, at masakit din sa bulsa, so baka ipostpone namin ng mga 4 mos after the wedding, since kailangan pa namin uli magpaalam sa works.

All my major Suppliers are booked, most of the Suppliers advised me na ang real preparation takes place 3 mos before the wedding so medyo chill kami ngayon pero come January, after ng putukan kami naman ang magpapasabog haha charot. Ratrat na sa preps, sometimes kasi I feel it's too early, baka magbago pako ng isip, or medyo nakakahiya sa Suppliers mangulit kasi ibang wedding pa priority nila, makakalimutan din nila ako, so basta my notes come in handy every time I need it. After the holidays, woooo wedding preps all the way. And don't get me wrong, bago pako officially engaged halos 1 yr ako in advance nag research, kaya it's best to be prepared.

So far here's my Suppliers:

Booked

Church - San Antonio de Padua Church

Reception Venue - Casa de Corazon
(Garden - April kami so sayang ang summer kung hinde namin iutilize yung outdoor venue)

(kung matapos na sa April mini hotel, as long as afford ko Im sure to rent all 6 rooms)

Caterer - L&J (of course  ;) kakaiba ang TLC ng team ni Sir Willie, wala ako masabi)

Bridal Gown - Ms. Marsha Berbon (Cavite)

Photo - Law Tapalla (I looooove him, well not literally haha)

Video - Meg & Jane Studios
(p/v sila pero mas gusto ko atake ni Law so video lang kinuha ko wala ako mahanap SA TAGAL ko nagresearch ng kapareho nila sa Video, super feels for me)

HMUA (bride and ento) - Mariah Santos (yes and I'm sooooooo excited matry ang magic nya)  :D

OTD Coordinator - K Events Management (Ms. Kris, no less - grabe attention nya sakin, love her)

Florist - Edgar Erni (team nila Sir Willie)

Suits ni Groom - Dito kami bibili sa Qatar, we saw 1 Balmain suit na he really likes.  :D

Wedding rings - also dito sa Qatar

Ayun palang, like I said sa January tatapusin ko lahat haha, lahat naman may target na kumbaga the bigger picture is all set, matter of execution and paying nalang.  :D

monopoly19 thanks for your feedback, helps to know na as far as the place is concerned, be it the venue itself or the styling, at yung service, maganda ang review mo.

Sa food, this will be a lesson for us to remind our Caterer to serve them earlier.

I might skip the lechon, after all haha!  ;D

^^ hi sis monopoly! Sorry if sinend ko sa friend mo yung comment mo. We just want to assure kung totoo bang hindi masarap. Nashock kasi ako sa comment mo, yung dating sakin hindi masarap ang food, to think na nasabi mo din na yung mga nasa table hindi na ulit kumuha, so inisip ko hindi ka nagiisa sa negative feedback. you can't blame me naman kasi food yun, hindi pa kami nakapgft and we book l&j already dahil sa dami talaga ng good feedbacks and pasok sa budget talaga namin kaya namin sila kinuha, pero kahit affordable kasi we want to serve our guest delicious food, kaya nataranta ako and ask the bride yesterday, sya din kasi nagask ng name sakin kaya ginawa ko na lang iniscreen shot ko. So ayun, wala namang masama sa feedback mo, all feedbacks here are so helpful, lalo na kung negative kasi we will check kung true nga, then we'll have it solve asap kung totoo nga. Isa pa, malaking tulong din sa suppliers na may negative feedback kasi aayusin nila yung service nila to gain more clients. So ayon, kinabahan lang din ako sa comment mo kaya umaksyon agad ako dahil ayoko mangyari sa wedding ko yung sasabihin na hindi masarap yung food e yun ang pinakaimportante. Haha!

^^sis rory, go girl! Navivisualize na kita na super busy at aligaga sa unang pasok ng taon haha! Goodluck sis! I'm waiting for your wedding! Lalo na mariah ang hmua mo. Hehe..

^wow sis! Lapit na wedding mo! almost booked na rin pala lahat! :) Few more days 2016 na! So excited for you! :)

Sis @monopoly19 - for what it's worth, we appreciate your feedback. :) Understandable din na medyo nakakapanic lang whenever we hear not so good comments sa mga suppliers. I hope your friend take it as a friendly comment lang naman. No harm intended. ;)

^monopoly19 - Thanks for your honest feedback sis. I'm also one with all the B2B's here nag panic din ako for a while nung nabasa ko yung comment mo kasi nag based din ako sa feedback ng mga tao dito. But ofcourse not everyone will be pleased lang siguro, may iba iba naman talagang gusto ang bawat isa.  :)

ChixC18 I won't mind, in fact sabihin ko na dito haha! Meg & Jane Studios a lot cheaper kung kuhain mo sila as P/V magaling naman sila sa both, pero mas gusto ko talaga si Law Tapalla, their rates ranges from:

Meg & Jane Studios - P/V 110-120k all in

Law Tapalla - 60-70k all in

Nagtaas na sila both, nakuha ko sila sa 65K (Video) and 60K (Photo).  :)

Actually 500k sana budget namin haha, pero di pala kakayanin, habang tumatagal sa dami ng add ons or pag may gusto talaga kami like si Mariah, ipupush talaga. Pero di pa din naman sobra, kasi sa 700k namin kasama na expenses malamang ng wedding preps like gas, food etc.

True, ayaw din namin magmadali sa Maldives and gusto talaga namin water bungalow kami sa private island. So we decided to postpone it.  :)

^ I checked on Law Tapalla, i might inquire nga sakanya sis, kasi nagustuhan ko din portfolios niya. Thanks for sharing your P/V supplier sis, sa totoo lang hirap na hirap nakong maghanap ng P/V supplier IDK kung ihihiwalay ba namin yung Photo team and video team. :( gusto sana namin one supplier nalang para bawas din sa crew meal kaya lang wala kami masyado makita na pasok sa budget na magaling sa both na. Hay. Budget namin for P/V is 100K on both na, pero the lower the better. Haha! we like how TheLightshapers by Laly

Kami naman sis budget is 500K sana, pero nag recalculate kami ni H2B lumagpas ng konti lang naman around 10-20K sana hindi na magtaas ulet. Di na namin sinama sa computation yung gas, mga kinakain namin every labas kasi nakakalula lalo isama. Haha!

^^mga b2b's ng cdc, nagupload ulit si sir willie, may bago na naman sa ayos. Hehe. Nagustuhan ko yung idea na cocktail sa labas. Para magamit talaga yung labas. I might request our p/v na mabilis sana kaming matapos sa pictorial with guest para magpunta na agad sila sa venue to enjoy the view. :) buti pa kayo sis chicx malaki alloted sa p/v hehe.. anyway, ayon nga, nagiimprove talaga yung ayos ng cdc, and excited din kami magpunta dun sa sat. We might also visit caleruega again kasi gusto daw makita ng gf ng kapatid ko eh as well as my mom. Pinapupunta kami ng 1pm para makita daw namin yung actual setup kasi may ikakasal sa cdc mismo. Sana makarating kami on time hehe.

raiizea haha kala ko nga malaki na 700k, di pa din pala, pero tama naaaa bawal na lumagpas dyan haha!  :D

ChixC18 yes lakas makasosyal ni Law diba?

Ang hirap di magexceed kasi may mga gastos na coming out of nowhere.

Prenup nga namin, di ko na anticipate na magastos pala bongga. Yung outfits nga don, baka personal expenses nalang din namin.  ;D Food pa and venue, kung mag rent man. Wala pa nga din ako nahahanap na lugar. Anyways. Enjoy lang, and savour the moment.  :D

Haha totoo, ang hirap naman maghanap ng free na venue, unless isuggest sayo ng p/v team. Medyo nakakahiya din naman sabihin sakanila na dyan nalang po tauo sa tabi tabi para libre hahah!  ;D
