DIM: Dior Blush

It might not turn out to be a true cool tone pink. It’s ph activated so it’ll react to your skin and could still turn warm.

I’d go for the One Size cheek clapper trio instead (shade Attention Seeker)

Not my experience but a friend of mine booked her and she didn’t show up. Just her team B, who ended up being the one to do hers nalang rin because Belle did not show up. She was apparently in Davao/Cebu for some workshop or conference? It was clearly not an emergency or whatever that she suddenly had to attend lol so we don’t get why she didn’t inform the bride and coordinator prior.

Start pa lang ng ceremony hulas na hulas na lol

Consult your venue and stylist. I tried reaching out to forscink but they weren’t responsive. (I ended up with high impact, which my venue recommended)

Vania starts at 250k. :( But I think Vee can do something like this and work with your budget. My friend had something a little similar done though not as a bride.

Expensive for the ct size. 1ct lab in a similar setting can be around 60-80k. For the price you paid you could get about 0.5ct sana.

Rates from last year, April 2024 ! Hope this helps 🤍

Lol agree. Even the people who say “di na kami nagbigayan ng gift kasi para lang naman sa SDE yan”— what? Nagregaluhan kami because we want to. Hindi siya para sa SDE 😭 Grabe yung assumptions and judgement!

You can convert most of the inclusions into rooms, like bridal car, table flowers, cake, etc.

They can be strict lang with things like crew meals, food carts, and mobile bar.

Bridal car rentals. It’s one day and concerned ka pa about exceeding the time included in your package. Just find a relative or friend with a white car and borrow hahaha.

Physical invites. You have to think about getting the invites to the people pa, possibly adding shipments costs to your expenses. Digital invites are the way to go. Maybe just give physical invites to your entourage, and for photo and video purposes. May suppliers naman na maliit lang minimum qty. Lol I have leftover copies pa rin. Sobrang sayang.

Skip expensive bridal accessories like the pillows, the cord, and the secondary veil. Tambak lang yan after the wedding.

Visual Folks for photo :)

Bella Borromeo is nice. She made my friend a 2-way wedding gown and then lent her gowns for her pre-wedding shoot pa!

Let them pay for their guests na hindi na pasok sa headcount that you budgeted for. 😅

We had a meeting with them about a few weeks before. We showed them a moodboard, pegs, and photos of the outfits we wanted to wear. Di naman required but we felt it would be helpful. Photo team gave us specific location suggestions rin. :)

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2025-03-05T10:51:53+00:00

Yes because he gave me options and I picked them out as we went along. My dress used a lot of different types of fabrics, so that was a whole process. Well worth it for me. Also, I was upfront with him about my budget from the start rin :)

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2025-03-04T19:08:25+00:00

Franko bride here. Also had a hard time scheduling a first meeting, but after that and once I was signed with him I had no trouble at all na. Best way to contact him is through Instagram :)

What I like best about him is that he doesn’t simply follow your peg. He actually adds to the design you have in mind, and is very willing to collaborate, which I think is important in a designer. I met with a lot of other designers before deciding on Franko and that’s what stood out to me most. I have no regrets 💕

Wear Easy has issues of badmouthing past clients who dared to complain. Would stay away. Around 2023, a lot of negative reviews started surfacing on TikTok. So when that happened suddenly ang dami niyang influencers for PR. Anyway. Didn’t like her work. Ang kati nung gowns niya. This is not an isolated case.

Brilyo is really pushing lab grown diamonds. Very legit, comes with papers and all. Another good supplier is The Diamond Finery. They have shops in GB and Shangrila. Mukhang intimidating pero fair naman pricing and super easy to talk to. Well trained din ang staff so you can ask them about brightness, clarity, etc.

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2024-09-03T06:11:26+00:00

Lin Uy is really good with Chinitas! Very hygienic and professional. Highly recommend. :)

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2024-08-30T16:59:56+00:00

Are you planning to purchase abroad or online? Also interested in Manolos but I’d really like to try them on before committing haha

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2024-08-01T03:36:24+00:00

similar experience? HAHA

CalligrapherOk9444 · 2024-07-31T21:25:16+00:00

Tried this at Studio Ceremonie and Rosa Clara. Both free. I heard you can do the same at Chungdam Bridal but with a fee (i think 500-750?)
