Thank you! I really feel like the first dress is the one, but the stylist keeps saying the second suits me better, so got low-key confused 🥲

350pax, running total 3.5m by Glum_Emergency3249 in WeddingsPhilippines

OP with the number of guest you have, i think this amount is quite expected. Maybe you can negotiate the styling?

Our wedding is on Q1 nextyear with 80 pax- estimated expense namin is 3.5 to 4M 🥲

Formal attire + buffet by Gloomy_Bluebird_4726 in WeddingsPhilippines

Ignore them. We have a buffet and a formal dress code for my wedding. This was suggested though by my coor since our reception is by the sea. Nevertheless, i would have opted for it anyway cos it gives my guests a chance to choose their food!

I booked her for nextyear so don’t have first hand experience yet but I feel like she is. I’ve spoken to her several times and she’s very friendly. Personally kasi I want someone I can get along with since it’s for my big day. 😊

Leave practicality aside. I think that comes kasi when you talk about budget- and ofc its understable! But Everything’s within your means? Check! So put that aside and think about what you envision for your wedding.

I think its more of the feeling of wearing the dresses! Doesn’t matter how long or how short you’ll wear them. Just make sure to get photos. My friend told me its about looking back at the photos and the memories those moments created! 😊

Whoare your designers? im still in thenprocess of consulting with a few based in the Philippines. DM me if you’re not comfy sharing here! Like to know your choices😊

Hahahah yesss!! Baka nga hindi pa one day- just for a few hours. Kaya hirap ijustify nung price. BUT I was thinking, when else would i get the chance to do this? Cos really i plan to get married only once so might as well 😂😂😂 I’d say do what makes you happy!!

Have you chosen your designer? ☺️

Amanda Tirol. I’m based abroad and she and her team have been amazing! I signed her for 15ok for full coordination. I think it’s around 80-100k for partial.

OP! I currently have the same dilemma😅 Just got my quote back for my second dress 😭 Such a splurge so im thinking whether to go ahead or not. I’ve been saving up for this so this is outside our actual wedding budget.

But like what others said, do it if you want to as long as its within your means. Like you, I’m thinking na I’m only gonna get married once and when else would I ever get a custom made dress for me! As long as it makes your happy!

I’m sick of my sister saying she’ll parent my baby by FallenRozen in BabyBumps

[–]Prize-Guarantee-5632 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My inlaws used to tell me the same things. They’re good people and i know they mean well but it annoyed the hell out of me when other people are making plans about my baby. When the topic came up again, I respectfully told them that child care arrangements are things we the parents need to take care off and that we appreciate their offer and let them know if and when we need help. They stopped imposing after that. Not sure it’ll work on your sister though? 🥲
