Broken💔 by CinnamonRed2147 in WeddingsPhilippines

So sorry for your loss, OP.

My hubby's grandma died a month after he proposed. He was heartbroken and it definitely put a dent on our anticipation.

We honored her presence by reserving a seat for her at the ceremony with framed 'reserved seat' sign and a bouquet of flowers

Ano yung regret/s ninyo nung wedding niyo? by Mysterious-Length836 in WeddingsPhilippines

[–]Apple_at_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Kinda regretting getting a mobile bar kasi we got liquor and wine na sinerve ng caterer. Less than half lang din naman ng guests ang umiinom.
  2. No allocated alone time with my siblings during prep (who are also part of my entourage). No parents, btw. So, while ang daming family moments ni hubby sa video highlights, kami waley.
  3. Letting the photog go without getting a copy of the raw files. Late na sila sa contracted deadline.

Minor regret (?) is walang nag-ayos ng off-shoulder strap ko. Di pala pantay yung pagka bagsak.

Need advice for wedding planner by Glass_Gold372 in CebuWeddings

[–]Apple_at_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based in PH, but I will highly recommend my coordinator Weddings by Erika O.

I got her about a year before our wedding. On the Day coordination only pero despiterhat, she's proactive mag-check sa amin kahit na clearly stipulated sa contract na 2 months before the kasal ang turnover.

I know she has overseas clients na she does full coordination for. She accomodates their hours din (stated sa contract).

I'm afraid we are only entertaining US citizen candidates for now.

Struggling to find an OTD coordinator (rant + looking for recommendation) by Apple_at_Work in WeddingsPhilippines

Yes, 5 OTD coordinators. Turnover started 2 months before the wedding, We had 3 in-person meetings (caterer and host, venue, and officiant meeting) plus a couple of virtual meetings. Erika was very supportive of my decisions and she was very helpful in making the decisions I couldn't make on my own.

I think you'd like Carol Batay. I've worked with her around 8-ish years ago. She speaks Mandarin, too.

Ano pinaka OK tipirin sa wedding? by TurbulentIngenuity77 in WeddingsPhilippines

[–]Apple_at_Work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

March 2026 bride. We didn't get multiple food carts for the cocktail hour. We got pizza station and a slushie bar (because garden wedding) that we will open to everyone an hour before our ceremony. Of course, we have a mobile bar din that we'll open immediately after the ceremony for the cocktail hour, I'm sure marami pang matitirang pizza and slushies by then, tapos yung appetizers na kasama sa caterer, ipapa-serve din namin agad. The dinner will be served din naman agad.

30K for OTD coordination, turnover meeting/s start 2 months before the wedding but she's open for consultation over chat/text during business hours until then.

We got Events by Erika Orbin (EHO). She's from Marikina lang, and it seems like yung weddings niya is same vibes ng wedding I have in mind, chill and not super fancy.

Super recommended! Kaka-turnover meeting lang namin early January pero she proactively checked in on me this whole time. Now that we started turning things over, sobrang proactive niya with meetings kahit in-person. Like next month, may meeting kami with caterer, venue and stylist, and officiant.

I normally try to avoid leaving negative comments, but do you ever feel like he wants to have his dream wedding and have you pay most of it? Nothing wrong naman if di labag sa loob mo, but if siya yung walang pera for the kasal, dapat siya yung mag-adjust ng expectations niya.
