2017 Brides - Part 4

[LilaFowler]

I tried din the wax stamps. I gave up. I just bought round labels and printed envelope seals using the same images.

I spent around 1k on the images pero sulit because I used the same images for menu, place cards, table numbers, give away tags, misalette.

When I was shopping around for invitations, it was 10k just for designing the invitation and it's just a template, not even a custom design from scratch.

Not bad na yung 1k! galing! At least nga you guys are so good in using photoshop and very creative pa kaya no need na to spend for the design  

Ok na din yung sa envelope even without wax stamp, maganda pa din! Super hirap nga ng wax stamping nagka first degree burns si hubby because of that! Kitang kita sa pics yung scars during our wedding. Isa pang medyo pricey yung wax! Hahaha! Buti na lang nakahanap kami ng affordable na printshop na ok

[lots-o]

we had ours wax too. pero samin we use wax beads and spoon to it much easier and faster join forces kami.

ganito sya sis: http://img0.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.160455073.jpg

^that's so nice! where did you buy it sis? or maybe we can slice the candles nalang na same size nyan baka cheaper pa

[kdramaholic]

^ we discovered the wax beads after namin mag hoard ng gold wax huhuhu eh sayang naman!

Ang galing niyo sis lots-o! Ako wala ako contribution sa invite kundi mamili lang ng gusto ko na design

[LilaFowler]

^ you can use crayons and you can match din with your motif.

I find lang I kept on making mistakes etc so tinigil ko na hahaha. Saka di din bagay sa invitation namin kasi it was very casual and tropical masyadong formal yung stamp

[camilleXboots]

Curious ako dyan sa wax. ngpa customize ba kayu nung mismong stamp? If oo, mga magkano? May marerecommend ba kau na kaya gumawa na affordable?

[LilaFowler]

I got mine from Etsy. This is the seller https://www.etsy.com/au/transaction/1149859642

It's "custom" - first letter of my name, first letter of our last name, then first letter of his name (MCN).

[kdramaholic]

^ yup customized using our monogram, sa Recto yung samin parang naka 1k kami kasi trial and error Sa Scribe pwede pa-customize 3k nga lang tsaka may online shop din eh, forgot the name, posted it sa invitations thread before Kaya nag tiyaga si hubby maghanap sa Recto para maka-save.

Hi sis Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore mine is on the 7th of april naman.. Lesst than a month to go.. Medyo stressed ako sa number of guests [textspeak!].. So far final details nalang with the suppliers.. On my part medyo pressured ako kasi nasa abroad si husband to be.. So all by myself ang peg ko.. Hehe.. Anyway mga sis, ask ko lang opinion nyo if perfumes are okay as gft to ninongs and ninangs? Cool water and tommy.. You think okay na? Anong magandang packaging para di sila mukhang simple?

[decibel28]

Hello! Any Julianne Syjuco, Kristel Yulo, Vania Romoff, and Mara Chua brides here? Shortlisted these 4 designers for my wedding gown.

Thank you!

For me super okay na yan. If I were to give perfumes to my ninongs/ninangs, I'd probably just place them in a nice box or a plain black paper bag with a ribbon. Better if the paper bag/ribbon follows your color motif.

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

Minchin16 we're both based abroad , too. And honestly, ako din feeling ko all by myself ako sa decisions haha, nag dedelegate lang ako task sakanya and sa OTD Coord. etc. Take a breather Sis. Sa guest list, mas ok na sumobra no. of pax mo kesa kulangin.

[Minchin16]

Sis marywater thank you sis.. I was looking for someone who could actually make a custom made paper bag or box pero wala akong makita.. Maybe i'll look for ready made nlang..

Sis Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore where are you based sis? Hirap ng mag isa no hehe.. But it's all worth it naman pag natapos na wedding natin 😊

We're 6 days away from our big day! 😊 Got the entourage dresses from Ian Mallabo yesterday and we loved it! ❤️ Picked up my dress from Bride House as well. Super lapit na! Small details na lang ang kulang like mga DIY and other stuff ❤️

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

Minchin16 Hi Sis, we're both based in Qatar, and you? Totoo, pero nobody does it better than the Bride herself.  Good luck sa preps!

[Minchin16]

Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore sa philippines lang ako sis pero si hubby nasa UK so ayun.. Mag isa sa preps. Hehe good luck din sayo sa preps.. 😊😊

[BBB21]

3 days before our big day! Feeling pressured right now. Mga DIY and little details na lang. 😊

[LilaFowler]

Ang lapit na! How exciting!

I'm trying to push talaga to finish everything this month. Kasi I don't want to be doing anything for the wedding na next month.

Did you girls have menus? If you're having a buffet, kailangan pa ba? One is to one or a few lang pero table?

Goal ko to finish this week designing the menu and placecards and have it printed.

Also order na the remaining tsinelas for guests. Sobrang stressful nito kasi ang hirap maghanap ng white na tsinelas na size 14 within the budget.

[marywater]

^ Buffet rin kami but no more menu cards for us I am still thinking of what to do with place cards.
