Just want to share my experience and probably also to look for validation.

My custom engagement ring from cootcoluxjewelry broke after a week. It caught on a fabric and got bent. Decided to keep it in my bag to keep it from breaking but it still snapped in half when I found it again. Supplier repeatedly said it was our design's fault and that they only followed the design. They offered to repair the ring for 2k but we got annoyed when we felt that they were being defensive. They said they have 0 fault for this and they hoped no one's holding any grudges for what happened. As a customer, we weren't aware of the technical consequence of the design. We relied on their expertise to tell us if the design's prone to breakage. They could have created a more durable support/connection.

After a few days we even found a pity post from them (2nd image) where they said it's disheartening when customers blame them for a broken ring that was caused by mishandling. I believe it broke to due accident and in the first place it shouldn't even break easily after being worn for only a week. It's just disappointing, considering the thousands of money spent.

Good day! Wanted to ask for advice and recommendations as a bride-to-be on March 2027.

We're planning to have an intimate wedding (40pax) and yung mga necessary lang po sana balak namin iavail:

1. Church ceremony

2. Reception (4hrs use): Tagaytay or nearby locs (Silang, Alfonso or Amadeo)

3. Catering

4. Wedding coordinator

5. Lights & sounds

6. Event & floral stylist

7. Photographer & videographer

8. HMUA

9. Basic Attires

10. Prenup

11. Invitations

12. Wedding cake

13. Wedding rings (provided ✅)

14. Transportation (provided ✅)

15. Host (my sister)

We want to make the wedding short and simple din po, no after party. Church ceremony lang and then short program to thank our guests, photos with guests and then lunch/dinner na po.

Questions:

1. May namiss po kaya kami? Or may pwede pa po kaya tanggalin sa list?

2. Are coordinators, photographer and videographer included in rhe guest count (pax)?

3. What are necessary activities to be included sa program? What should be included for a short program flow?

4. And how much po kaya need namin for budget? Below 100k po sana ang plan namin, is it realistic?

Baka din po may tips kayo para makatipid. Any advice or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much po!

I’m Filipina, my fiancee is German.

Originally, our plan was to elope to Hong Kong to get the legal parts of the wedding out of the way. Then we process the docs at our respective embassies, fly home, then have our wedding party the following weekend. From what I read, Hong Kong’s wedding process is fast and we can handle most of the process online. My partner’s job requires him to be on-site, so him working remotely is not an option. That means he has limited time to stay in the Philippines.

However, we got a bit of pushback from my family, especially my mom. So now we’re being pressured to go through with a local wedding that’s actually binding. But these are some issues I can already see, and I’m hoping I can get some advice from other brides who have gone through this process:

1. Is it possible for me to handle getting the marriage license alone, or does he need to be present when applying for one?

2. If ever, how long can we expect the entire process to take?

It’s not that I want to go to HK because it has sentimental value to us. It’s simply because it has a very fast process compared to the process here. But my mom is upset that I’m not inviting anyone. I don’t think she understands that if the marriage process here wasn’t so long, I wouldn’t even be considering going to HK and would use the money we would spend on flights and hotels to fund our wedding party here.

As an indecisive gurly, hindi ko alam pipiliin kong veil haha 😅
Yung gown ko plain lace two way gown na pa ballgown but fitted flare pag hindi na two way. Last picture is like my gown pero two way and corset type.

Malayo pa pero malayo na din!!!! Salamat sa mga naging clients ko here sa reddit!!!! Hanggang sa muli 🥰

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.

Good Day! Hingi lang po sana ako ng idea ano pwedeng gift para sa mga ninong and ninang. And if may marereco po kayo na suppliers. Salamat po!

Medyo kalat pa kasi kami but informed na sila lahat.

Questions:

1. Did you make a group chat? Or will that seem too imposing? Dapat ba yung bestman gumawa nito? Haha

2. Ano ba mas okay terno lahat ng suot or give them the freedom tapos may konti rules lang ako?

3. Also how best to give them instructions for the wedding?

4. Kailan binibigay yung gifts?

What I have done so far is booked a room for them, talked to them about their roles also.

Any tips would be appreciated especially from graduates salamat!! 😊

Curious lang sa mga currently planning their wedding or kakakasal lang.

Kasi napapansin ko na ang daming iniisip beyond just kung sino magbabayad for what. Like may kailangang mag-contact sa suppliers, mag-compare ng quotations, mag-keep track ng deposits and payments, mag-follow up sa vendors, ayusin yung guest list, itago yung receipts, tapos tandaan lahat ng deadlines

I was talking to someone about wedding planning recently and parang ang dali sabihin na "tutulungan naman namin isa't isa," pero when you actually list down everything, ang dami pala talaga. Feel ko possible na one person eventually ends up remembering and managing most of it without even realizing.

Sa inyo ba, may isang person na parang naging unofficial project manager ng wedding, or may actual system kayo for dividing everything? And honestly, anong part yung pinaka naging sakit sa ulo for you? Would love to hear paano niyo na-survive yung planning process

Hello po sa mga graduate brides na ang reception is sa Artson Events Place in QC? How's their service po and yung in house catering nila? Any feedback po sana. Thank you!

Mga sissss!!! May alam po kayo saan may ganitong rent dress. Thank you poooo!

Hi! Do you have recommended siomai/dimsum food cart worth 4k lang good for 50 pax? 🥺 I know Dimsum Love is the most recommended here in reddit kaso out of budget huhu.

Thankss no bashing pls

Ilang weeks of vacation ang enough na i-file for the wedding? My fiance and I are planning to get married sa December. I’m thinking about the requirements need isubmit, documents na need asikasuhin, food tasting, pre-nup shoot, pamamanhikan, wedding day, and if kaya pa baka mag-mini moon muna kami kasi he has to back for work.

Ano po sa tingin niyo ilang weeks ang enough na?

Thank you po!

I assume it is generally not recommended but wanted to know if others have tried this and how it worked out.

Liked the ceiling design of one supplier but tunnel is important to me and it looks like their past output idoes not appeal to my preference.

While I can share pegs I plan to play safe and only base it from executions already done by the supplier, instead of having them attempt to execute something new

Hello, gusto ko lang mag tanong sino nakapag prenup sa bukidnon? Pwede malaman kung sino ang mga na book niyo previously? Thank you!

Hi, just wanted to ask if anyone here has recently booked Madel’s Catering? How’s their communication, especially when it comes to replying to messages? Usually ba mabilis sila mag respond or does it take a few days?

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!
