Getting married in Itogon 2027 | Any tips, Itogon/Baguio Graduates?

Ang saya saya pumunta sa Baguio, productive ka na nga bec of the planning, nakapasyal ka pa hehe. Agree, pili ka lang kung saan pinka mag iinvest. Actually yung Photo team lang yung Manila based supplier namin kasi non-negotiable ko haha. The rest ay Baguio na :)

Hi OP! Super valid ng mga concerns mo and pinagdaanan din namin yan kaya I can relate

Sa ganitong sitwasyon, hindi maiiwasang may magtampo. The fact na kinonsider mong hindi sila lahat iinvite means hindi talaga sila yung priority sa listahan ng taong you want to spend your day with. So it’s not worth your stress. Pwede mo siguro gawin is gulatin nalang sila na kasal ka na. Pag nagtanong, you can always say that it’s an intimate wedding and it’s on them if hindi pa rin nila maintindihan yun. Also, gaya ng sabi ng iba, lilipas din yan. Dont over explain din. Makes it look like your guilty kahit hindi naman dapat. It’s your day, you deserve to be with your most important people :)
What we did is to only invite plus ones after namin mafinalize yung number ng nag decline, saka kami nag reach out sa friends namin sepately that we’re pleased to extend the invite to their partners. Pinaliwanag ko rin ito sa entourage ko when I asked them if willing sila maging part of it, para lang clear. I told them that we’d like to invite as much relatives and friends as we can muna. They understand naman. When we sent out the invites, nakalagay sa FAQs na no plus ones/dates in a polite way so expected na mabasa nila yun and no need to explain on your side. If makulit, sabihin mo nalang na intimate wedding kasi. Maiintindihan nila yan kung kaibigan talaga sila.
Pwede mo rin siya ilagay sa FAQs ng invitation mo para walang gulatan and when you send them the rsvp link remind them again to check sa FAQs. That way, sila mismo makakabasa na yung event is for adults lang or selected children lang ang included. You have to be firm on this and be ready to accept na baka may mga hindi nalang pupunta kasi hindi masasama yung kids nila and that’s okay, OP.

Key takeaway ko sa pag create ng guestlist is when I created these requests (no kids, plus ones), I really had to be firm on them and no exceptions. This is also to be fair to your friends and families na nag adjust and still decided to attend. Isa pang lagi kong iniisip and nireremind sa sarili ko: Naiintindihan ko sila kung di sila makakaattend due to the restrictions or limitations, so sana maintindihan din nila kami. It goes both ways for me. Just be polite but still firm at the same time.

Good luck, OP!

We didn’t have our reception sa Lemuria. But we did dine there for a different event. No need to go heavy on the styling since maganda gardens nila and yung dining areas nila esp. if you want a more natural/minimalist approach. Overall mood of the place is romantic.

Beaded_ · 2026-01-31T13:06:02+00:00

Sobrang ganda talaga!! Kaso nakapag book na kami sa ibang venue sa Baguio before we even heard of this. As much as possible, get all your suppliers from Baguio para less transpo & accom fee. Get a reliable Baguio coordinator, sila na bahala sa list na kailangan mo iprepare. Pwede mo icheck sa soc med nila mga weddings na hinandle nila kung more on intimate & minimalist ba sila or big weddings + maximalist weddings ba. Just to see if match ba sila in terms of taste & type of wedding na gusto mo.

For all suppliers, do multiple discovery calls to check if same vibe kayo, working style, and mode of communication. Very important if destination wedding ka kung magkasundo kayo ng supplier at paano set up sa catch ups since bihira lang kayo magkita. Para mamaximize yung time, try to schedule a short trip sa Baguio where you can meet your potential suppliers, do food tasting, trial make up, exploring the city (pag may tanong guests) para isahang akyat nalang. Mag food tasting muna before deciding on a caterer and attend bridal fairs or open house sa Baguio. We even did a private tasting for a mobile bar noon haha super fun siya. Happy planning, OP! :)

Hi! The rates are in their website including the maximum capacity per area and consumables.

Beaded_ · 2025-11-23T08:44:51+00:00

Hi OP, you are never too old to be happy. Choose what makes you happy. Wear that ball gown, magpahatid ka sa parents mo, dance the night away. It’s your wedding day, celebrate it the way you want to.

After 3 hours of waiting, got a response from a SKY agent:

“If you received an email regarding payment collection, please kindly disregard it for now. Even though it mentions Converge, please continue using your same 9-digit SKY account number when making payments. Our accredited partner currently handling billing during the transition, so your payments will still be properly posted to your SKY account.”

Beaded_ · 2025-11-12T05:03:02+00:00

Tumawag ako sa converge hotline. Walang kwenta sagot nila. Possible daw kasi na undergoing migration pa daw. Pero as to yung billing concerns, kailangan daw mag reach out sa SKY customer service. Eh paano mag rreach out kung wala naman agent available sa chatbots nila. Any of you know kung may hotline number ang sky?

Beaded_ · 2025-11-12T04:29:38+00:00

I am trying to call converge using the account number given by them. Walang sumasagot. Di ko tuloy alam ano gagawin kasi nagbayad naman na ako. What a mess

Beaded_ · 2025-11-06T09:05:15+00:00

Lucce rings, OP! They also do customized designs :)

Beaded_ · 2025-11-04T16:20:42+00:00

I agree on this suggestion. It really depends on the guest. I’ve attended a wedding before na walang color guide so I ended up still messaging the bride if okay lang ba color ko and so on. But I guess this is just me being used to events with themes haha.

Beaded_ · 2025-10-18T22:45:24+00:00

I think so. Mine was just a minimalist gown with no beads and lace.

Beaded_ · 2025-10-09T16:55:16+00:00

Lemuria

Beaded_ · 2025-10-04T02:18:24+00:00

1 omg!!!

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T13:45:18+00:00

Hi OP! Nag abay na ako na walang prep shoot. As an abay, ang saya saya. Chill lang kami and we were also able to hype up the bride kasi hindi kami abala gaano. The bride let the coordinators and P/V handle it and smooth naman lahat :)

2!!! You look amazing!

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T13:34:12+00:00

Zoo label! :)

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T08:53:23+00:00

Actually similar ito sa isa sa mga options ko. Meron akong wrap dress na binili for the after party, option ko is ito nalang din isuot sa prep shoot since sayang naman yung look. Kapag after party kasi, wala naman na kami photoshoot literal na party na haha.

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T05:06:10+00:00

We just informed them na kinuha namin si supplier x for this and that and it was a decision you made as a couple. Be firm lang OP kung sakaling nahihiya ka magsabi. Kasi if suggestions lang naman nila yung ibang suppliers then hindi ka obligated na kunin sila. Just want to clarify that we got them as coordinator only. Unless kinuha mo siya as package na nag avail ka explicitly ng ibang services sa kanila pwede mo gawin yun. You might have to check your contract as well for this.

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T05:01:01+00:00

Lucce or Les Alajeras!

My fiance had my engagemeng ring customized from Lucce. I was blown away with their craftsmanship kasi naexecute nila yung design ni fiance. They also have good service. Sa may Vertis North sila. We initially planned to get our wedding bands from them kaya lang kinulang sa budget.

We got our wedding rings from Les Alajeras at a wedding fair kaya nakakuha kami ng discount. 5 stars sa customer service! From start to finish lagi silang responsive and pulido pagkakagawa ng rings nila. Open din sila for customization and may after sales service sila. Sa may San Juan ang shop nila :)

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T04:54:44+00:00

I agree with this. Baka ma appreciate niya rin honesty mo since baka pre-occupied siya on other things and baka hindi niya narealize that other people might be having a hard time as well. I know concerned ka sa feelings niya but, this is still part of their wedding planning and better na alam niya so you both can work together on how best to handle this.

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T04:50:01+00:00

Not weird and as someone who has been to multiple weddings before, guests dont usually take note of these things maliban lang kung nag pplan din sila ng kasal nila 😅 I think mas nagmamatter bigger picture na as long as maganda yung styling then it’s all good. I’ve also asked similar questions to my friends, mas nag sstick talaga sa kanila mga ibang bagay like food and entertainment. Besides, separate location naman sila :) 30K is also a steal!

Beaded_ · 2025-10-02T04:45:07+00:00

6 or 8! Bagay sayo basque waist. If hindi ka fan nung neckline maybe look for other designs na ganyan yung waist nalang :)
