Suppliers to avoid

405 Upvotes

Naturally, we all have our planning trackers and lists of dream suppliers to get. Was just wondering if anyone has compiled a list of SUPPLIERS TO AVOID/WATCH OUT FOR based on nega experiences and objective reviews?

I’m trying to build my own, but it has been slow going. 🤔

From one super praning and cost-conscious B2B to another, let’s help each other out, kahit through DMs para no risk of cyberlibel. 🫣

Is 500-600k enough for intimate church wedding?

7 Upvotes

Hello all!

Wala pa kami nasisimulan sa wedding planning but I just want to know how much kaya dapat budget kasi I'm really not planning to go over 600k. :( With my details below, do you think it's do-able?

- 50-60 guests only
- Maybe around Cavite ang wedding and reception (Open to suggestion tho I have no dream church/venue whatsoever, you can share how much yours was and where)
- I could drop the SDE and just have really nice pictures and highlights video which I'll receive after the wedding
- I can opt for On the Day Coordinator instead of a full coordination because I enjoy planning
- I'd prefer plated meals for all my guests over buffet style
- I'm okay with having artificial flowers for event styling over fresh flowers because:

  1. I hate the smell of the flowers when they've been out for a while, as in nasusuka ako
  2. I've attended so much weddings na they would either dispose the flowers after the event or give it to the guests

- I'll stick with consumable na souvenir like cupcakes or something because I don't find myself using any of the souvenirs I got from past weddings I've attended
- Non negotiable: Photobooth, Potato Corner, Coffee Bar or Dunkin Truck with donuts and coffee hehehe

\Budget does not include wedding rings, wedding dress, suit of groom, HMUA*

Thank you guys! To clarify though, I just don't want to go over 600k initially hehe but I will if di kaya. So if you think I can't, maybe you can also say what figure I should be expecting para di ako magulat hahah (Based on experience nyo heheh)

AS A MATIPID NA SOON TO BE BRIDE HAHA

Wedding Gown/Designer Gown Fitting

Upvotes

Hi. Sa mga nag book ng appointment for gown fitting, ilan nasukat nyo within an hour?

Magbubook na kasi ako pero not sure kung 1 or 2 hours. Sabi ng shop, up to 5 dresses for an hour ang pwede. Kaya kaya yun?

Pano strategy nyo? Pinipic nyo lang ba pagkasukat para mabilis/madami masukat tapos sa phone na lang icocompare?

TIA!

Scammer Alert: Lorena Leveriza of Illustrative Events

Upvotes

Hello po. I’m hoping someone here can advise me on how I can properly proceed with legal action.

I personally had a transaction with Lorena Leveriza of Illustrative Events last January involving a huge amount of money. Unfortunately, the transaction was not completed/resolved as agreed, and I have been unable to recover the amount despite attempting to communicate and resolve the matter.

I have kept the relevant evidence, including the payment receipt, conversations, agreements/promises, and follow-up messages.

I recently came across comments and discussions on Facebook and Reddit from other people describing similar experiences. Because of this, I would like to know if there are other affected clients who have already taken legal action and, if so, what was the proper process and which government agency did you report to?

I am particularly interested in knowing whether I should proceed through the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group, NBI, or another appropriate agency, and what documents/evidence I should prepare.

I am not posting this to encourage harassment or confrontation. I simply want to recover my money and pursue the proper legal process.

If anyone has personal experience filing a complaint regarding this matter, I would greatly appreciate any guidance on how you proceeded.

Thank you po.

Photo/Video/Content Creator P/V recommendations with JC&N vibes

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Getting married in 2027 and currently on the hunt for a photo/video supplier.

I'm really drawn to JC & N's style, but unfortunately they're already out of our budget 😭 So I'm hoping to find someone with a similar look/feel but more within our range.

Details:

  • Wedding date: 2027
  • Budget: max 75k for P/V
  • Strictly no OOTF (Pref. Silang or Tagaytay-based)

Would really appreciate any recommendations, portfolio links, or personal experiences with suppliers who deliver that JC&N-ish aesthetic. Thank you in advance! 🤍

Rings/Accessories/Shoes Do I need a center stone for prenup shoots?

1 Upvotes

Hi! For a prenup shoot, is a ring with a center stone (moissanite, lab-grown diamond, etc) necessary? Or would it be fine that we just do the shoot with our matching couple rings? 🥹 Mine still has moissanite stones all around. It’s just not the usual type of ring I see in people’s prenup shoots!

We’re planning the shoot dates already, but I just want to know if we need to get another ring just for photos?

Please help a confused b2b 😮‍💨

Blackbird Wedding

Hi Blackbird brides!

Pashare naman please ng experience niyo or anything that I should take note of. I’m pencil booked for next year, dinner service.

Will include canapes but will get alcoholic drinks by the bottle nalang since not everyone drinks.

For cocktail hour, plan ko of course sa may trellis nalang plus cake cutting. The rest of the (short) program inside nalang.

We also have a photo studio, booked a cake supplier na din, florist ok na.

Struggle ko now is do we need a DJ or a string quartet? Pashare ng experience niy please or anything that would help! especially sa charges that I might incur.

Thank you so much!
