Supplier’s Review: Kasal Kasali Kami (KKK)

06.15.2011 by Leah //

Pre-Wedding Review: I found about KKK through the very helpful forum, Weddings at Work (W@W).    Ms. Benz (W@W's administrator) emailed the group about the promo being offered by KKK which is an on-the-day (OTD)  wedding coordination services at P5,000.00. I immediately shot an email to Chillette of KKK and we set a meeting sometime in August last year.    Unlike other ... READ MORE

Supplier’s Review: Lili Florendo’s Infinity Dresses

06.06.2011 by Leah //

A know a lot of w@wies who are already excited to see how my bridesmaids looked in the infinity dresses made by Mrs. Lili Florendo of Cebu.   I first wrote about her here.  The fittings were indeed different from the actual output and I was happily surprised to see some of my bridesmaids in designs they thought of and did ...

Supplier’s Rating: Chichi Sotomil

06.03.2011 by Leah //

I love my hair and make-up!   Chichi Sotomil and Steph did a wonderful job that up to now I still can't believe that this was me last Saturday:Chichi was recommended to me by my kumare and very good friend, Chel and I am just grateful for her introducing me to Chichi because she spared me from looking at the many make-up artists in the wedding ...

Supplier’s Rating: Carmen Lazaro Couture

06.01.2011 by Leah //

I've looked at countless bridal magazines for my wedding gown, but found my inspiration online instead: It's a V-neck gown with rouched bodice and layered A-line skirt.   It's exactly my kind of gown since I want one that is not heavy, not long and not peppered with beads. I was a little apprehensive in checking out designers, knowing how expensive they could get so ... READ MORE

Supplier’s Rating: WINK (Written in Ink)

06.01.2011 by Leah //

I've written about our wedding invitations here.  I love how simple it looks. I highly recommend Wink for budget brides out there who want professionally-made wedding invitations.    They have defined turn-around time which I really appreciated because we have a target date in distributing our wedding invitations.   Just make sure to give really ...

Our towel cakes from MonteCielo

05.15.2011 by Leah //

We will have tokens for our principal and secondary sponsors, as a gesture of appreciation for them agreeing to be a part of our wedding entourage. I remember sleeping really late at night just searching over the internet for possible gift ideas for them until I came across Ms. Cielo's towel cakes.  I thought them to be cute and out of the ordinary.  I mean, it looks yummy ...

Hazel Garcia Delivers

05.10.2011 by Leah //

AJ was able to pick up his mom's dress and our Ninang's dress from Hazel's shop in Tutuban last week.  The delivery dates were moved twice, I think, but it's a good thing I ordered early (precisely to account for the possible delays).  Hazel also tries to impose a 2-week production time for each order so it does not accumulate, and does ...

Wedding Invitations by Wink

03.31.2011 by Leah //

Our requirements for the invitations are simple:  there must be no patterns, no caricatures and no intricate background.    It should match our vision of a solemn, clean and elegant wedding.    Also, we don't want to spend much on them that's why we initially wanted Unifair in Binondo to do the invitations. Unfortunately, we went there on a Sunday and the shop is closed.   ... READ MORE
