Wedding Suppliers' Ratings Part 4










Bride’s Shoes: Suki

****

Peso Power: 1.2k

My shoes was one thing that took me ages to find. I didn’t want the usual white pointed bridal shoes. I wanted one which I could still use after the wedding (at parties, maybe?) When I saw the shoes from Suki, I thought to myself, this is it…I found my shoes. What worried me were the heels. It was about 3.5 inches. I was only confortable wearing up to 2 inch heels.

I gave it 4 stars because…my feet hurt…maybe because they were new… =)

Groom’s Shoes: Milano

****

Peso Power: 800

Another last minute buy. Nice shoes, affordable.

Invites/Guestbook/Unity Candle/Missallette: DIY

*****

Peso Power: Labor of Love

Wedding Invites are very expensive and I didn’t want to have an invite which looks the same as any other invite. So I decided to make our own. It was really a labor of love because I only got to do the invites during weekends. I was thankful because Jake was also eager to help. Rating is 5 stars and beyond!!


Guestbook/Missalette/Unity Candle: DIY

I also didn’t want the traditional signature frame. I wanted a customized guestbook – with our pictures on it. but since guestbook lay-outing and printing cost a lot, I made our own guestbook. And I loved them!

The Missalette Covers and Unity Candle were also customized by me! Simple, yet appealing.

Bridal Car/Tarpaulin: CRV c/o Kuya Engel

*****

Peso Power: Free

We were so lucky to borrow Kuya Engel’s CRV as my bridal car. Special thanks to him because he served as our driver for the day. He also provided the tarpaulin and projector. By the way, he was also our ninong.

Pre-Cana Seminar: Jesus the Divine Healer Parish

Source: PCJ Parish

Peso Power: 1k

*****

A recommended seminar for all soon-to-be married couples. Very enlightening. The 2-day session was really worth it.

Bible: Salesiana Don Bosco

****

Peso Power: Php300

I wanted a white bible. We have searched different book stores and religious stores but we found none. When we visited Fr. Rene, we dropped by the Book store in Don Bosco and there we found our Bible. I gave it 4 stars because I wanted a bigger one sana. Unfortunately, this is all they have. It’s a cute bible nonetheless.

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...
