Moving the Date

Days Left: 499 days as of today

Letter for w@w:

Hi mga sis and bro

Naging Lurker lang ako for the past few weeks and minsan nga talagng hindi pa ako nagbabasa. Well as the title says na move ang wedding date namin ni Charles. Reasons? We realized na kinulang ang budget namin and gusto namin bumili ng house. I know hindi ganun kadali ang pagbili ng bahay pero yun ang gusto namin ni Charles muna. I know you will understand mga sis and bro.

So from Oct. 16 of this year na move and date namin to Sept. 10, 2011, naaliw si Charles sakin sa date kasi lumabas na 9-10-11 siya. Ang tagal pa noh?! Good thing din kasi parang bigla kaming nakahinga. Sa totoo lang mga sis and bro sobrang good decision talaga tong ginawa namin. We enjoy preparing for our big day and we want it to be as nice as we can make it to be.

Sorry napahaba mga sis and bro. Ito pala funny story when we decided to move the date and told our parents biglang dumating ang w@w tag ko. hehehehe... Regarding our parents nga pala. they're okay about it naman. Okay na okay sa kanila kasi syempre parang nagprioritize daw kami hindi namin binigla ang pagpapakasal.

Let's see

Date: August 10, 2009 (Monday)
Days left: 276 as of today

Eventhough we haven't decided on the exact date and even if we haven't told our parents yet, we started planning already. Just a few drafts on what to look for or what theme and motif we want.

Thank GOD for forums. It made it easier to where to start planning. I read a 54 pages thread at femalenetwork for suppliers to scout for. Here's what I wrote down and researched:

• Gracecraft's gifts and souvenirs

I found this cute tin canisters at their multiply site. For Php 65 each i think it's okay. But still need to look for some more and maybe a little less Php 50.

• Treasured Trinkets

Another possible souvenir. I like this salt and pepper shakers. But it's a little bit pricey. It's Php 237 a pair.

• Cosmo Print

Now on Promo rates:
3hrs unlimited – P8,ooo.oo
2hrs unlimited – P7.ooo.oo
1hr unlimited – P5,ooo.oo (ideal for small parties)

Package Includes:
postcard size (4×6) lab quality prints
live view feature
fabric Backdrop
CD copy of all images taken
delivery and set-up (one hour before the event)
custom text or logo or theme on prints
use of props
online gallery of all photos taken at http://cosmoprint.multiply.com

• Jumbo Kingdom

A floating restaurant at Manila. They offer per table set up which costs Php 9000/table. But a definitely a NO NO for me. a floating resto??? NO NO...

• La Huerta Estate

San Isidro Pavillion

San Jose Pavillion

This one is surely out because it's too far for us. It's in antipolo. It looks nice though... :)

That's it. Till Next Time.

Happy Preps... :)

Days Left: 287 as of today

Ayun so nag paka nerd na naman ako at sobrang walang magawa sa office kaya gumawa ako ng Excel for our budget plans. Okay naman yung ginawa ko ang feeling namin ni Charles sobrang makakatulong siya. Tsaka okay na rin na gumawa ako non habang hindi pa kami stressed out sa pag aayos ng wedding namin para walang makakalimutan and we would know our priorities.

That's it. Till Next Time.

Note to self: upload the excel

Happy Preps... :)
