information@centurypark.com.phWe just booked this hotel 3 weeks before our wedding.We decided to change the hotel 3 days after we found out that Bayview Park Hotel Manila is under renovation. I don't think I'll be able to forgive myself if I stayed on, amidst the fallin debris ang nets outside the hotel. This is pricier than we would normally pick but after where being frugal led me too, we might as well splurge a little on this one.

Bernie does'nt want to pay for a bridal car.He knows they're expensive and will last only for a few hours.Sad to say we have no choice.Wala syang mahiraman.Hiya sa boss nya eh.
Aiza is soo funny to talk to.Bata pa eh. :-) As long as they show up on time and gets me to the church on time, thats fine.If not,dadayuhin ko talaga sila sa Antipolo at kopow!

Took me also a long time to decide on this one.I always do that.I find out what I want the first time then I still shop around for others,only going back to the first one I picked.Even in shopping for other stuff be it shoes,pants,gifts!I always, always want to look for everything else so I know I made the right choice.
Given the amount of budget that we have, we couldn't splurge on something fancier.But I love this one.Although I'm a bit disappointed with the color though.I find it too light.Yan ang hirap pag nasa abroad ka at puro computer ang kaharap mo! Baka mas maganda sa personal.
But when it comes to "pagaasikaso" wala akong masabi! Very prompt ang cardprints be it with their shop staff and office.Kahit ang kulit kulit ko na! Gora sa pag reply sakin.
Very good ka Jenzil!!!

The very first supplier we ever booked.I was too busy looking for a church and a venue that I never paid enough attention to who I was talking to on the email.I saw someone recommend them from
w@w ,look them up and inquired if they can customize the package according to our budget.Sure enough they did!I talk mostly to Ms.Charisse Tinio who is the owner and she is soooooo nice!! Love her,love her! I keep pestering her about my questions and she answers right back!Kahit madaling araw na.(Siguro me blackberry?Or insomniac na sya he he he)However she did not relent when I asked if we could have 2 photographers for the price of one.I guess I've been pushing her too hard he he he.But I love her!!!!
Chris & Tina's Bridal Shop,Scarborough,Ontario
Bridal GownI got my wedding gown again by chance.We just visited Chris and Tina's Bridal Shop in Scarborough to look at the gown's prices,just to have an idea. But I came across a wonderful simple gown with a ruching skirt,something that I have always wanted.I tried it on and fell in love with it.I ordered the gown even though I still have ten months before the wedding.It just needs to be altered though

EmceeI never expected that I could get her for our wedding since she is so in demand.I thought she must be booked by then.But luckily,she was still available on our day so I booked her right away! I asked my Mom to deposit the DP ASAP! God sent talaga. :-)She got a lot of good reviews from
w@w so yehey!!!

ST.JOSEPH CHURCH(Bamboo Organ Church)Padre Diego Cera Avenue, Brgy. Daniel Fajardo,1744 Las Pinas City, Philippines.Phone:(63)(2) 825-7190(63)(2)826-1856This is perhaps the most difficult vendor to decide on.My fiance's first and
only choice was the Nature's Church in Moonwalk.I did'nt like it there because one, they don't accept outside caterers,two, I'm not much into wood, and three I don't like their chairs.So, we have to scout for churches and venues all over the south.We could'nt possibly go far for Bernie's family are all from Maragondon so you can just imagine the travel time. My father had to scout churches from Parañaque and Las Piñas, my Mom went to look for churches in Alabang, while I google most of the time.(I was'nt
a member of
w@w then so it was really difficult) .
We also had to look into our budget.During that time I was still naive and feeling so tight fisted.My father told me that the fee to this church is only P6,500 without the flowers.Plus they also have two venues to choose from.So I made some computations and asked my fiance to have an ocular of the place.He fell in love with the church,what with it being so historical.My h2b is so patriotic it makes me sick! :-)So we agreed and booked it.I like this church too.Even though all of my family campaigned against it.The most important thing is that we both like it.
ST.JOSEPH HALLSt.Joseph Academy,Las Piñas City 
This is how the hall looks like bare.With matching students milling about.At least dami electric fan.Mainit daw dito. I think they hold masses here every Sunday afternoon.This place is being rented with a Sound System.However,with a lot of fighting and resistance from my fiance,I decided to rent out SS from another vendor.Because I would put mood lights anyway.Mas mura kapag package na.
Now this is how it looks like dolled up! Ang ganda ganda diba? I got this picture from Ria and Fed's blogsite.(Ria is also a
w@wie. I hope she won't mind hi hi hi). They have somehow become the benchmark for SJ brides.They hired Lala of Interplay to do the event styling. I think they spent 20k on this alone.Whew!

Florist/Event stylistLawrence is so easy to deal with.Wala ata akong hiniling na di nya binigay.(Maliban na lang nung binabarat ko talaga sya sa event styling.Or perhaps I should have tried it in the afternoon?Para di bagong gising)He got a lot of good reviews from
w@w. His work is the one I'm looking forward to the most.I asked him to do the event styling at the place,set up the flowers for the church and entourage.He is just going to give me local flowers.I don't care much for imported flowers dahil sanay nakong makakita ng tulips( ang yabang!!!) Para sakin mas maganda sila sa garden.Spring lang sila tumutubo dito.Anyway,I got a really good deal from him if I do say so myself :-)
FRIDAYS @ SEATTLEfridaysatseattle@yahoo.comOTD CoordinatorI have always wanted an OTD Coordinator.If I had my way this will be the first supplier I will book ever.It took me a long time to book one since my father was mentioning someone who wanted to volunteer only it turned out differently.Yes! I finally got my excuse to do it.And answered prayer din ako dahil binigay Nya sakin ang Fridays.Covered pa kami ng promo nila.And when I spoke with Carol I felt kinship that I have never experienced with another coordinator.Never mind that they are just three! As long as they can deliver.I don't really need a perfect wedding.I just want an organized one.Bahala na kayo peeps!
CHICHI SOTOMIL
chichisotomil@gmail.com8013605 http://www.picturetrail.com/chichisotomilHMUA Her real name is Richelle Anne Sotomil in case you're wondering.
I got her because I saw one of the most beautiful brides I've seen in her site. And I thought I wanted to look like her.OK fine!
Prettier than her!
Very affordable yung package nya,tapos dami dami nya pang equipments.
Then the following morning I had to dash off to my friends house,which is in the other side of Toronto.(They are from the west, us from the east).We were supposed to go to H&M's warehouse sale in Brampton.We did go there but the line up was soooooo long already.And we couldn't possibly wait that long since we have a baby with us and it was freakin' cold and windy outside.So we went to Vaughn Mills instead.It's not as good as a mall as I first thought it was.Mas type ko pa sa Yorkdale eh! Afterwards I treated them to lunch.Too bad I could'nt stay to get wasted.I had work at 5pm to 1am.
Can you see my grandma's tattoo?As the young ones say here,it's poppin' fresh!
