Oh Venue, where art thou our venue?

Days Left: 458 days as of today

We are still searching for the right venue. I have one in my and I know from the bottom of my heart that, that venue is the one. But Charles said it is too expensive. It is not yet scratched

out on our list of venues but we want to look for a venue with that "this is it" factor and affordable.

Last saturday we went on for our search again. It's in Fairview, Casa Milan's Clubhouse to be exact. Going there is a bit much for me since I don't like long drives. Our church is in Commonwealth so when we got there I started timing our travel from Commonwealth to the Venue. I think it took us a good 45 mins including traffic and being a basketball by the 3 guards from the village. Because they have seperate entrance gate for the people who don't live there. The first guard told us to turn around and go to gate 2 because that's the entrance. When we reached gate 2 the 2nd guard said that it's for delivery vans' entrance only and with sticker vehicles. He told us to go to the 3rd entrance. Finally the 3rd entrance. The place is not hard to find since they have signs to which way to go. Finally Casa Milan Clubhouse.

The place is quiet. The one who assisted us for ocular is Ms. Joan. Good thing there is a event that night so we saw the place dressed up already. The price is affordable. Here's the breakdown.

Mainhall (6 hours) 10,000

Exceeding hours 1,000/hr

Mainhall & Terrace (6 hours) 11,500

Exceeding hours 1,250/hr

Aircon (6 hours) 5,000

Exceeding hours 800/hr

Caterer's Fee 2,500

Capacity 150 max

I suggest that if you get this venue try to get the Mainhall & Terrace so that you can place the food on the terrace and the photobooth as well. When we went back to their office Charles'sasked them if they have bookings for next year already and she said none so far. Then when we told them that we will have our wedding on September, they looked at each other and laughed a little. Then a guy/gay person said "Marami pang pwedeng mangyari ng isang taon?" What was that? I don't want to take it personally but if we will be their future clients at least be nice and respectful right?!

Anyways here's some pics of the venue.

That's it. Till Next Time.
