2018 Brides (Part 2)

[xxxchloe]

sinabi mo pa sis sparkling jewel 

Right now still deciding kung La Castellan, La Pergola Verde or Le Parc kasi yun nalang ang mga open pa sa wedding date ko. This week ako magdedecide and book. Thankfully si caterer ko sobrang helpfull since madami syang alam na events place na near lang sa  Church namin.

Any feedback on the above mentioned venue place?

[winkar22]

^ If I'm not mistaken, July ang wedding mo? Hmmm, not sure kung mainit pa din sa July pero I've attended a wedding last year around May sa La Castellana and super init!!! As in!!! Ang humid din kasi ng weather and hindi talaga kinaya ng air coolers nila dun. So heads up lang.

Oct b2b here! So I just checked our spreadsheet and realized that we're almost 90% booked with the suppliers. Attire na lang namin ni h2b ang kulang. Girls, how did you know that the gown is "the one"? Will be meeting the gown designer this sunday, at hindi pa rin ako decided anong style ng gown ko. Hahaha.

Sis, I tried rtw gowns last weekend to see anong style bagay sakin. I suggest you book an appointment din with them. Try Ivory and lace, White Label, Beyond white. Minsan kasi maganda look sa pinterest pero di pala bagay sa body shape natin. Hooked ako sa pinterest ngayon eh haha

Then next time sa designers naman ako pupunta and atleast alam may idea na ko 

Check your wardrobe din kung anong mga damit mo yung favorite mo and feeling confident ka.

Hindi na naman umaandar wedding planning namin! Sana by May marami ulit kami ma-book!

[ellie0826]

Mga sis.. Kailangan kaya naming magbook ng prenup stylist? Medyo pricey kasi. Thanks

[tomatostellar]

^ sis, if you think kaya naman ng Pinterest at shopping skills mo, okay na walang stylist.
Para walang stress/hassle, hire one. So depende na lang sayo kung ano ang mas prioritize mo.

Ako naiimagine ko na kasi mga looks na gusto ko for our shoot; so hindi na kami mag hire ng stylist.

Keep in mind lang sa mga need i-prepare, eto sample checklist:
-- At least 3 sets of outfit + shoes
-- Bouquet (para maganda and wedding-y, some couple forego this)
-- Emergency kit - safety pins, double sided tape, etc
-- Umbrella (na maganda sakaling umulan at need nyo magshoot while raining)
-- props kung gusto nyo, kunwary fairly lights, letter standee, etc
-- water, facetowel,

Any suggestions on entourage gifts? I have a 'back-up' idea for gifts to my bridal party, but i want other ideas pa rin and gusto ko useful. if you were a bridesmaid/MOH what would you appreciate receiving from your bride friend?

[sparklingjewel]

^Typically you can give robes or pajama sets, accent jewelry which they can use on the day (this is what i gave, but in different styles depending on their personalities), some even provide matching footwear for the entourage para nice rin sa pictures mo. Personally, i'd appreciate a pajama set

Hi Sis! Ang tagal ko din nag-isip ng pwedeng ibigay na gifts dati sa entourage ko. Last minute na nung nag buy ako ng parang shower kit sa The Body Shop - set na merong shower gel, shampoo or may body cream and lotion. ganun natuwa naman mga friends ko kasi nagamit nila daw talaga

Sa boys naman, hindi na nagbigay si hubby ng gift since yung coat and tie nila, kami na nagpagawa parang yun na lang din ang gift niya sa kanila.

[lalee888]

^thanks sis @detteski and thanks sis @sparklingjewel ganyan din back-up ko - a kikay set but not from body shop... i was just worried baka mabigat since my wedding involves a bit of traveling.

i like the pajama set idea-- it can be used for many years to come. Do you guys know a good source for this in the Philippines? Any recommendations?

[elarose]

^check mo sis yung IG ni Neri (wife ni Chito), nagtitinda sya ng mga pajama..mukhang cute naman. ☺

Hello sissies! I am new here and Dec 2018 b2b! I feel so bad na ngayon ko lang ito nakita. We alrdy booked our wedding ceremony/ venue and caterer, HMUA, OTD coordinators... anyone here na Aminsana Events Place and Blanco's Catering din ang nakuha?

Actually they weren't my first choice, pero given na December sya and Saturday, yung mga naeye ko talaga na venue and caterers are fully booked na... So nagpanic kami though okay naman yung Aminsana, spacious sya and 1 event per day lang sila.

Yung Blanco's naman masarap yung food nila tho yung reception styling is not super impressive...

I need ur help mga sis, we are stl looking for the ff:
Florist
P/V
Hotel preps
Dresses for my entourage

Thanksssss 😘

^Hi Sis! Don't stress out yourself too much. You can find suitable supplier. Hehe. Buti ka nga May nag-start for a December wedding. Samantalang ako last year, July lang nag-start ng preps for a December wedding. Kaya kumuha ako ng full coord. As luckily they assisted me on everything. Pero nagka-problem ako sa nakuha naming host. Nag-cancel ba naman I think a week before my wedding. Nag-refer naman sya ng replacement and transfered my DP sa new host. And nakaka-inis lang kinuha ko sya dahil singer-host na sya, yung pumait is not a singer-host. So same rate but noit same value of skills. But, good thing my wedding program runs smoothly. Overall my wedding runs smoothly. Thanks to my reliable coordinators and suppliers.

BTW, if you are still on the hunt of wedding PV, I highly recommend you Peekxel www.facebook.com/Peekxel sila PV ko nung wedding ko. They gave me free On-site photo. Still waiting for their final output, yung full video edited photos and album. Pero hindi pa naman sila late, since 6 months naman ang contract namin for the output.

Sis yung indemand films may summer promo.  Yung basic package nila with SDE na from 60k to 30k na lang. Although I got rewind films for my Video team promo ko rin nakuha

For photo naman try Regina Roque. Daming magandang reviews and nagtrain daw siya under Nikolai Melicor.

Entourage dress naghahanap pa rin ako sis haha. Check Opposites studios (ig nila  opposites attract), love c manila.

Florist pinagiisipan ko pa if kailangan ko since okay naman ako sa look ng venue and church ko

[Leigh Yuri]

Thanks sa recommendations mga sis @JandC2017  and @Frenchmeasles.

I am checking them out yung P/V...

Buti naging ok naman yung turnout ng wedding mo sis JandC2017. Luckily, I have friends na willing to host my wedding, and yung bestfriend ko magaling kumanta so sya nalang din kukunin kong wed singer ko. And they offered it for free I took advantage na para less din sya sa expenses.

May alam ba kayo sis na affordable couturier? My theme is fairytale...

Thanks thanks :*

[tomatostellar]

^ wow you're lucky sila friends pa ang nag offer

may friend ako na gusto ko sana mag host, kaso mas gusto nya guest lang sya hehe

parang malapit dyan is Hotel Kimberly. Pero hindi pa ko nakapag stay dun. Nung yung friend ko kinasal sa Tagaytay, sa One Tagaytay Place sya nag prepare. Meron 2 BR suite kaya medyo nakagalaw mga family, suppliers. Although malayo na sya sa venue mo.

Ano ba balak mo sa dress ng entourage mo? Saan ba sila malapit?

[iana_umali]

Hi sis leigh yuri, I highly recommend my suppliers Graduate bride here 2 years ago hehe

* Florist - Tita Sonya (Tagaytay based)
* Coordinator - Zenith Events (Tagaytay / Cavite based)
* P/V - A&A Photography (Tagaytay / Cavite based)

Super love all of them especially our p/v team until now paulit ulit pa din namin pinapanood ang photos and videos namin. Ni recommend din namin sila sa friends and cousins namin na ikinasal last year and this year, super satisfied couples din sila like us.

hi.. just wondering if may naka experience ba dito na ..  poor service from bridal designers? ..  you booked for months then 5 mins [textspeak!] yung nakuha mong time out of the booked appointment.. considering one year ahead ka na booked sa kanila.. Every bride has a story to tell in every gown especially with the designer they booked. so to all bride to be.. choose wisely! dont always go for the hype or what you always see on instagram.. choose attitude over skill ❤️

[sparklingjewel]

^Haha i was made to wait 2 hours by a young but popular designer!! And then when i got my turn with her i noticed she shouts at her staff all the time and treats them like rubbish. We also had a customer barge in between our appointment complaining how she didnt get get orders on time and how the designer would never reply to her (which she of course denied). I knew then not to get her lol
