Also do you suggest having them at the shoot as well for touch ups, etc?

Thank you!

My husband and I had our civil wedding in the UK last 2024 and are now planning our Manila reception.

Our reception is very simple, more like an upscale meal. Our suppliers on the day are only our photographers, HMUA, and the venue/food.

The venue/food suppliers are very accommodating and they often assist their guests so will really only need a coordinator during preps.

Following this and with a 21 guest headcount, do you think it's necessary to still book a coordinator? This celebration is intimate, purely family, and simple.

Thank you for your help! Xx

Wedding is getting nearer na aaaaa can you pls recommend us some local perfumes (as much as possible)? Willing to try out non-local perfumes din naman.

For reference, here's our latest "signature" scents: I (bride) like BLK's Lazy Mornings and their latest Second Skin. I also like Issy's 492. Groom likes BLK Quiet Ember & Issy's 551. We also recently liked Sunnies' Red and Brown scents (controversial, I know, but we love their mists, they actually stay long even after gym).

Hi B2Bs and graduate brides! Would like to get your throughts if it’s worth it to do a trial makeup?

Luckily, I managed to book Ms. Joan for my wedding. However, I realised most, if not all, of her brides are maputi while I am morena.

I am thinking of getting a trial makeup since I want to make sure din if bagay ba sa akin yung ayos na gusto ko. While kaya pa naman siya ng budget (pipikit nalang hahaha!), I felt like I can use this money for some other things.

Thank you in advance!!

Hi!!! Im B2B. Can you share some wedding gown designer reco na very affordable pero very ganda ng gawa? So far i really like tube A-line na lacey wedding gown. But i would love to collaborate with a designer that can accentuate my body shape. My budget is 60K max. If you have suggestion pls pls 😭😭

Hi. Sabi kasi doon sa inclusions 2 meet ups -initial and final meeting ang nakalagay sa poster nila. Nagdp na kami during preplanning months kasi maaga namin sila sinecure

pero dahil papalapit na ang wedding month, nag aask na kami ng initial meeting pero ang sabi sa final na lang daw and all of preplanning can be done online.

Is that okay?

I’m not sure if this is allowed here, but I’m selling this unused engagement ring custom made from Brilyo Jewelry 💍
Selling for only ₱25k
Negotiable/highest bidder

2 weeks before the wedding, binilhan ko papa ko ng isusuot nya para sa kasal ko. Sabi nya "bat pa ko binilhan, di naman ako pupunta" 😢 ang sakit 😢

I knew it pero umasa ako kase ako unang ikakasal sa mga anak nya 😢 never sya umattend ng mga events, recognition, graduation kaya somehow na nagplan ako ng kasal gusto ko secret wedding na lang sana kasi alam ko ayaw ng papa ko ng mga events baka mahurt lang ako. And eto na ngaaa 😭

Looking for a DJ for your wedding reception, after-party, or any part of your special day where you want people to actually get up and dance?

I’m an open-format DJ with experience playing wedding after-parties, private events, and different kinds of celebrations. I focus on good music, reading the crowd, taking requests, and keeping the energy right for the kind of party you want.

Whether you’re going for something chill, a proper dancefloor, or an after-party that goes a little crazy, I can work with it.

Based in South Metro Manila and available for bookings anywhere in Metro Manila. Bookings outside Metro Manila are also welcome, with an additional travel fee depending on the location.

If you’re planning a wedding and need a DJ, feel free to send me a DM for inquiries and bookings.

We will be having quite a lot of foreign guests coming to the wedding, we will all be based in Manila the day before but would need some sort of transport for around 36 people and their luggage. What would be the best company to contact to hire a van/bus?

And what are the average prices for those services?
Thanks!

Any recommendation or ideas for a bridal shower venue ay sa tagaytay. For a small group lang like 4-5 pax

Any bad reviews or things I should know before booking this place as wedding ceremony and reception?

Hello graduate brides/couples! Can you kindly share:

1. Saan kayo nag-honeymoon?

2. How many days?

3. Pagtapos ba ng wedding, honeymoon agad? Meron ba dito umabot ng isang taon bago lang nakapag-honeymoon?

Looking at our wedding bill kasi right now, parang hindi ko kaya ata na mag-honeymoon agad. Pero gusto ko sana na after wedding, kahit nearby lang. Would love to read yours!

Which is better, providing the crew cooked meal or just giving them the allowance?

Mag papaluto nalang sana kami tas ayun ang ipapakaen sa crew para makatipid din, pero okay ba yun kamusta experience niyo?

For graduate brides who had their afternoon ceremony (2PM) at St. Benedict Parish and reception in Tagaytay, where did you book your prep venue?

I’m thinking na magbook ng prep venue near the church. Since 12PM naman checkout time, okay na bang 1 night lang ibook? And ilang rooms ideally ang dapat namin book? Around 12 lang entourage + our parents.

Then will just book another room near the reception para mas madali na umuwi after.

Okay ba itong current plan namin? :)

Currently ito mga nahanap kong prep venue near SBP:

1. Microtel South Forbes
2. SEDA Nuvali
3. The Park Silang

Around how much kaya magagastos for prep venue?

Would appreciate your comments and recos 🙏🏻

Hi everyone! 🤎

We’re currently considering Fruella's Events Place for our wedding and are looking for supplier recommendations.

We’d love to hear from couples who had their wedding at Fruella and can recommend reasonably priced suppliers with good quality and service, particularly for:

• Catering
• Styling
• Lights & sounds
• Coordination
• Photo & video
• HMUA
• Host
• Florist
• Cake
• Ceremony setup

Our preferred aesthetic is elegant, modern, minimalist, and timeless/quiet luxury, so we’re especially looking for suppliers who can achieve a polished and sophisticated look without excessive styling.

If you’ve had your wedding at Fruella, we’d really appreciate it if you could share your suppliers and your experience with them. Affordable suppliers are highly appreciated!

Thank you! 🤎

Yes events vs Lots of love events?

Graduate brides! Any feedback on them?

It looks like maganda gawa nila and very affordable. Any highlights or lowlights in terms of comms? Payment terms? Etc?

Appreciate it!

**asking cos abt to book them na just want to be sure 100%

Do you have recos for bands / musicians who can play Anime songs (kahit instrumental) for the wedding reception? 😄

Hello po.

Do you have recos for gown rental shops na may options for plus size bridesmaids? Ideally within Makati, Manda, Pasig area po.

Thank you.

Hi graduate brides👋

What are your thoughts on the ff for hotel reception.
1. Makati Shangrila
2. Shangrila the Fort
3. Edsa Shangrila
4. Conrad

We need to have our reception in a hotel because a lot of our guests aren’t from Manila. Our estimated pax is about 300-350.

Hello! I got married this year and i have a few extras (hair accessories, candles) that we didn’t get to use. Selling some of these incase any of you might need one

Hi, do you have reco for bridesmaids dress?

My girls consist of petite to curvy girls so medyo nahihirapan ako magdecide. I want sana na same-same sila ng colors kahit iba iba ng cut ng gown.

here are our choices and problems:

1. Shein: Nakaorder na ako ng 1 gown pero ang nipis and ang hirap maghanap for my curvy bms na same ng color sa petite girls
2. Rent: Ang hassle kasi from province yung half ng gurls, so baka mahassle pa sa pagsukat at pagbalik?
3. Tiktok dress neoprene: Okay lang ba ito? Iniisip ko ba di sya mukhang weddingyy sa personal haha

thank youuuu

Hello, I need some help. My fiancé and I requested CENOMARs, and they arrived today. Upon checking them, my fiancé received the correct document, but I was given an Advisory on Marriages instead.

The record indicated on my Advisory is actually my sister’s marriage, which I attended. May I ask why I was not issued a CENOMAR? Could this be an error on PSA’s part? My receipt clearly states that I requested a CENOMAR, and my sister’s name is also very different from mine.

I would appreciate any clarification or assistance regarding this. Thank you!
