rumblings and ratings for suppliers and wedding gamit's: PART 3

Bible: St. Paul's
Kwentos: nothin' much, since i just bought our's sa sm... didn't even bother to cover it up with lace whatsover..para mas makita ung simplicity.
Peso Power: P350.00

Wedding Arrhae: OCEANIC ( SM, Manila)
Peso Power: P600+++
Kwentos:
heard a lot of kwento's tungkol sa oceanic, having the longest clearance sale i know, pricey pero dahil sale sobrang bagsak presyo, magine a 70% discount! in fairness ganda tlaga ng material... so nung makita ko ung heart shape na trinket, d na ko nag di nako nagdalawang isip... tska it has a terno pa for our wedding rings.

Unity Coins: ACCLAIM (Robinson's Place)
Peso Power: P 1,800
Kwentos: eversince kze, i never wanted to have the same-ol'-typical gold-something wedding aras (d one with the parang-cage-ng-ibon-type). dunno, basta lang sabi ko i wanted something 'mahahawakan' talaga ng couple, ung magtutunugan while nilalagay sa kamay ng bride... hehhe.. ganun lang, tapos when i became active sa Weddings@work, un dun ko nalaman meron pala nito... unity coins, 13pcs of silver plated coins with different symbols like: love, trust, happiness etc...
medyo pricey, pero like what Amiel said, worth it na din, kze di pangkaraniwan... ;) lalo pang gumanda presentation nung nalagay sa holder.


Shoes: M. Nicole ( Landmark)
Ratings: 5
Peso Power: P 800+++
Kwentos:
diba mura! as in i really got a steal! super mura na for wedding shoes... actually a friend of mine suggested na pede ko magpa-made-to-order using my gown's fabric... pero i kinda loose the idea kze i wouldnt want my shoes na oldies ung ichura... before kze ive'd read na in one wedding article na it's not very important of what shoes brides will wear, basta importante ung comfortable ka.. kaya un, mega hanap tlaga ko ng comfy shoes na cute! ;)

Perfume: Elizabeth Arden -Beyond Paradise-

Love Bear: Blue Magic (SM, Manila)
Peso Power: P 289.00
Kwentos:
had this idea i think college pa ko, kze i wanted to involve kids (touch of innocence! hehehe) kaya sabi ko, no matter what i'll gonna have a game for the kids in the reception, true enough, gumana ang utak ko at nisipang bumili ng teddy bear, well, kesehodang girl o boy makakuha basta teddy bear na! hehehe.. the game goes like this, we made the kids create a circle at ako sa gitna of course! tapos music plays and theyl pass around the bear, when the music stop the kid who has the bear will be out of the game. until one kid was left and declared as the winner. Russel won the game. yup! boy ang nanalo... k lang, medyo bading ata talga ung pinsan ko na un! hehehehe



Principal Sponsors Give Aways: NOVELLINO WINES
Ratings: 5! (sorta-kinda-DIY yan e...)
Peso Power:
almost P300 each (inclusive the personalized labels,packaging and ribbons)
Kwentos: actually, we really had a hard time thinking on what to give our sponsors...coz like we have 24 of them! (i know, i know...dami talaga... hehehe), it's just that i'm really particular to what people will say sa mga gifts namin, tipong i wanted to make them feel so special, once we hand them the gifts, kze iisipin nila na d off-the-shelf lang ung bigay namin, personalizing is the game! kaya, i asked my friend Lovemela if she knows someone na nagagawa ng mga personalize sticker labels, kaze i had waiting supplier of Personalized Wine kaso it's so expensive! kaya sabi ko, i had to find one bago ko tuluyang bumagsak sa Supplier 1 ko, and good heaven! Lovemela introduced me to Ate Jacq of Marga-Arts Unlimited... so un, chicka chicka of what i wanted to make pagawa, show sample of sticker Label para sa wine, with corresponding names ng mga ninang at ninongs namin...tipong, they'll have to think twice before opening & drinking it kze sobrang personalized for them ung wine! hehehe... and then the'll just have to put it back to display na lang kze sayang! un! ang gusto kong mangyari...kaya ayoko ng straight from the bilihan-pack-distribute ang bibigay ko... kakatuwa, kze naapreciate nla ung give aways namin, specially when they saw their names in Big Bold Letters! ehehehe...
giddy happy!!! ;)

sinong di matutuwa everytime maaalala at makikita mo pinaghirapan ng asawa mo di ba?! :) nung una, he doesn't want the idea of having specialized cord, kaze dami naman daw tinda sa wedding stores ng gawa ng cord... syempre, defend ko ung gusto ko... i always wanted out-of-norm paraphernalias...as u can see naman diba, gusto ko magkaron ng difference sa pangkaraniwan. and as far as i know, meron ng gumamit ng Rosary unity cord, wherein, ung 2 rosaries ang pagkakabitin to make two circles. so i searched for suppliers ng made to order unity cord, pero jusme! ang mamahal and when they send me samples thru email, goodness! di ko gagastusan ng ganun kamahal mga gawa nla noh! using ordinary beads and low class swarovski!? no way. since, my sister is into making anik-anik made of beads i just asked her san nakakabili ng mga glass beads and mga pangkabitkabit... ayun, wellmanson is the place @ divisoria, kmeng 2 ni amiel naghanap ng mga pang beads namin, it wasnt so hard naman pala, since citrus ang motiff, orange,yellow and green lang paglalaruan namin.hehehe... at gano katagal ni Amiel ginawa?! wla pang 3 hours! hehehe.... galing tlaga... just bought the crucifix sa St. Paul para tlagang rosary ung cord.
