Bridal Fair @ The PICC Forum

Date: March 13-14, 2010
Days Left: 202 days as of today

DAY 1

Charles and I went to the wedding fair but of course... :) Here's our usual list of suppliers to look for:

• P/V
• HMU
• Photobooth
• Musicians
• Flowers

(our free canvass bag, magazine, cd, directory of exhibitors and our 2 name tags)

We went there around 10:30 am, and as expected ang dami ng tao. The hardest thing to find are the flowers, sobrang onti lang ata or hindi ko lang talga sila masyadong napansin so hindi ako nakapag pa qoute for it. Mas naging busy kami looking for HMU and P/V. Dalawang beses lang ata ako nagtanong ng Musicians, Bernie Pasamba & Totally Mesmerized. With P/V naman, B.A. Studios (who got my attention), Enoxx Enterprise (Lomo shots) & Rjm Photography. With HMU naman, Diana Kwong, I Do Makeup by Jasmine Mendiola & Irene Manigo. After long hours of talking to possible suppliers and countless of brochures in the free bag. We finally decided to have our late lunch @ around 2pm and to call it a day. Uber pagod. Tomorrow will be another day.

DAY 2

(Fantasy Kiosk Photobooth)

(Funlipix Photobooth)

Late na kami nagpunta for some personal reasons. Dalawa na lang naman kasi yung reason namin for going back. First para mag pa reserve sa B.A. Studio to block our dates. Second Maglibot at mag try ng photobooth. Kaso mas maraming tao ngayon kaya dalawa lang yung pictures namin sa Photobooth, Fantasy Kiosk and Funlipix.

Happy at least may P/V na kami. One major Supplier down... :)

PS: Finally met some co-w@wies. Sis Aby and H2b Ryan & Sis Mai... :)


That's it. Till Next Time.

Happy Preps... :)

P/V - - - - Check

Date: March 13-14, 2010
Days left: 214 days as of today

If you can still remember I recently blog about still not having my P/V and couturier. I finally booked one of them. HAPPINESSSSSSSS.... :)

Before the fair nagsulat na kami ni Charles kung ano-ano pa mga hahanapin namin sa expo para hindi sayang sa oras. Here's our list:

• P/V
• Photobooth
• HMU
• Musicians
• Flowers

Wala akong masyadong flowers na nakita so hindi ko na muna pinagtyagaan yung mga nandun. More on P/V and Photobooth yung hinanap namin. Pero isang supplier yung talagang agaw pansin samin ni Charles. Kasi naman noh Neon Green ang color ng name nila. Tapos yung AE na nakausap ko talagang ang sabi niya kagad sakin.

"Mam magkano budget mo para sa P/V?"

So ayun nung nag discuss kami ng packages, onsite, payment schemes and reservation. And syempre nung available pa yung date namin. Naging mas interested kami sa kanila. After the sat expo I explained again kay Charles yung pinagusapan namin nung AE. and nagustuhan naman niya. So nung sunday bumalik kami sa expo just to book our P/V. Just to be safe pinasulat ko sa contract yung pinagusapan namin nung AE nung sat para lang sure na lahat.

Details:
Budget: Slightly over by 5k (but worth it)
Comment: Lots of freebies

After reading the contract and discussing it again. I gave the reservation na imbis na 5k naging 2k reservation lang. She even gave me a free mannequin for my gown. We closed the deal by signing the contract. Thank you Ate Joan for the Budget package you gave me. I'll talk to you soon... :)

Before I Do 6th Edition Wedding Fair 2 SM Megamall but of course I wouldn't miss it. Suppliers to scout for:

Details:
Design: 3 stones, 5mm, white gold, shiny
Budget: Check
Comment: 20% discount

Cake - - - - Check

Date: Feb. 14, 2010 (Sunday)
Days Left: 241 days as of today

Charles & I went to the Wedding Fair to look for potential suppliers and of course to score some discounts and freebies. We made a list and what's our budget first on what to look on the fair:

1. Photobooth
2. HMU
3. Gowns
4. Flowers
5. P/V
6. Cake

So i thought it will easy for us to move and what to look for. But then again. After 5 hours of walking around and around. We decided to just get the cake. They have a free taste of some of their cakes so we tried the chocolate one since Charles knows I love chocolate cake, and we love it. So we made a reservation already.

To check our criteria:
Budget: check
Taste: Good
Comment: we both love the taste

Finally one supplier to scratch on my list.

Hearts and Bells thank you. We will talk to you soon for the cake design and cake flavor... :)
