Wedding Suppliers' Ratings Part 3



Wedding Ring: c/o mama Elsie’s Alahero

Source: Mama Elsie

Peso Power: 9k

***

Affordable…the diamonds were a gift from Mama Elsie. Though not really our ideal ring, still we love it. I gave them 3 stars because the rig was not “pulido”. But again, it’s fine with us. Simple and it fits well.

Flowers: Mang Boy Mahusay / Dangwa

***

Peso Power: 10k (Bridal bouquet, 10 principal Sponsors, 5 entourage, 2 flower girls, 2 offertory baskets, 1 bridal car, loose petals, hairpiece for flower girls)

I only gave them 3 stars because the flowers were not in accordance to our color motif. Buti na lang I love my bouquet!! It’s purple!!!

Priest: Fr. Rene Lagaya SDB

*****

Oh I so love Fr. Rene! We were very thankful because he was the one who officiated our wedding. Jake and I were sweethearts back in high school and we used to ask Fr. Rene to bless us during Valentine’s Day. His blessings proved to be effective for us! That’s why when we decided to get married, we wanted to get him to officiate the rites.

Groom’s Barong: Barong Tagalog SM Southmall

****

Peso Power: 6k

It was so hard to choose a nice Barong for Jake. For one, I didn’t want him to wear anything that would make him look like the rest. So I was very choosy. When I saw this Barong a mere 2 weeks before the wedding, I told Jake that this is it. A very unique Barong indeed.

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...
