Wedding Suppliers' Ratings Part 2







Photo/Video: RJL Digital Photography and Videography

****

Peso Power: 37k

Source: Family

Ninong Bobby is my godfather. He has been the family’s official photographer and vodeographer for years now. He was even my parents’ photographer and videographer during their wedding. His package was affordable compared to others. I only gave him 4 stars because the shots were mostly traditional. But nevertheless, they were able to capture our moment.

Backup Photographer: Espesyal na Ngiti

Peso Power: 4k

*****

I love Jeff and Christine! They are really easy to talk to. And I was even surprised that they are also newlyweds. We opted to get backup photographers because we wanted to have non-traditional shots. And their package is really affordable! I love their wedding photostory AVP. Another w@w find. Super sulit. Of course, 5 stars! And if I were given the chance to get them as photographers again, of course I would!! Maybe on my baby’s 1st bday?? Hmmm… that’s a thought.. =)

HMUA: Michelle Zapanta

*****

Peso Power: 9.5k (Including Trial Makeup, Bride+2pax, grooming of groom) (800 addl head)

Another w@w find. Affordable, but the quality of his (yes, he is a HE) work is really superb. I had my trial make-up 2 months before the wedding (just in time for the prenup pictorial). And I decided to book him right there and then. He was so easy to talk to and he really knows what he is doing. And he uses imported products too. I’m so happy with my hair and makeup. So happy that I even got him to do my makeup during our Christmas Party! =)

Cupcake Tower: Yumi Castrillo’s Piece of Cake

*****

Peso Power: 7.8k / 100pcs cupcakes + cutting cake

Source: Weddingsatwork

Yumi is a lawyer by profession. But according to her, being a lawyer is just her sideline. Yumi is nice and easy to talk to. Her packages are really affordable. Unfortunately, we were not able to have a taste of her cupcake during our meeting. But I just relied on w@w sisses’ good reviews. I just told her my motif and my preference as to what the tower would look like. She delivered well and the cupcakes were delicious. Compared to traditional fondant cakes, cupcakes I think are more worth your money because everyone gets to take a piece of it. Oh by the way, the cutting cake was also yummy!!

Hotel: Parque España

*****

Peso Power: 15k (2 days/2 nights, 3 bedroom suite)

The hotel was nice. The staff were accommodating. Compared to other hotels within the vicinity, Parque is more affordable. Too bad I was not able to take a dip at their pool. But their breakfast buffet was really good!

My Mommy Entry # 7

My In My Womb 3d/4d Ultrasound Experience Last Saturday, we had our 6th checkup with our OB-Gynecologist. So far, everything's ok. I passed my Glucose Challenge test, but I still need to cut on my sugar intake. We were also able to hear our little one's heartbeat. Next week I will be having my Tetanus Toxoid shot -- scary!! After the checkup, we proceeded to Makati for our scheduled 3d4d ultrasound at In My Womb. I have heard lots of great reviews about this ultrasound center so we have decided to have our ultrasound there. Their center is located at 2f, The Link Bldg, Ayala Makati. The building is beside Landmark. Before proceeding, we had our lunch first at Ineng's Special BBQ -- great food, terrible customer service! After eating, we then proceded to the 2nd level. We were greeted by a courteous nurse and I told her that I was scheduled for an ultrasound with Dra. Ramos. I would actually like to have the procedure done by the owner, Dra. Shiela Illescas, since i ...

Rants and Raves of a 26 year-old

Today I woke up wondering if yesterday was really my birthday. Yesterday went by so fast… And I didn’t even have time to reflect on the things that I needed to be thankful for. I have actually been whining about yesterday. I honestly didn’t feel good about anything. I was not happy. I was greeted by friends (who remembered), family and colleagues. Some sincere, some obliged. I used to love my day. But yesterday was entirely different. I didn’t feel anything special about the day. It was just an ordinary day for me. And I felt sad about it. I am actually not used to celebrating my birthday extravagantly. I just do things that I felt like doing for the day. Spend a day off from work, spend time with my loved one, simple dinner with the family, a simple surprise. But yesterday, I only got a few of my wishes. I spent a whole day at work, I spent a few hours with my hubby, and no dinner with family, and no surprise. It was sad, really. My hubby kept tel...

Easy way out

Yesterday (February 22), i took the easy way out. It's been almost a week since I gave birth to Jakob Caleb (separate post on my birthing story and the name).  I have been trying to breastfeed him since day 1 and I can say I was somehow successful on the first 4 days.  But came the 5th day...and i was literally crying and screaming every time I nurse him. Everything just seemed so wrong.  He was very fussy, probably because he can't get that much milk yet from me and I was scared of feeding him because i know how painful it's going to be.  We were awake from 1:40 AM until 7:00 AM just because he can't seem to be satisfied with my milk. Jake decided on Saturday morning to buy him the recommended formula given by the pedia.  And we fed him the bottle, and he fell soundly asleep for about 3 hours. I know i could have tried harder...but the bottomline is i don't think i can do it.  I have always admired mothers who breastfeed their babies without any problems a...
