Actual weddings in Malate Church
Report ako wat happened sa lakad ko last saturday wen i went to malate church. Aside from submitting our marriage bann, since andon na rin lang nmn ako, i witnessed 2 weddings in the afternoon. 1st wedding na lang since ung 2nd d ko tinapos, kse masyado nmn akong OA di ba... i took down some notes/pointers kung ano ung mga do's and dont's... Here's some:
* 5 pairs of flower pots in the aisle, walang tulle, just a simple arrangement lang, d ko lam ung tawag sa flowers na un pero un ung usual flowers na makikita sa wedding.
* instead of adding flowers in the aisle, i'll just put it na lang sa altar kse mas pansin ng tao un eh.
* the MOH/Bestman brings the ring/arrhae to the couple.
* parents (mothers) are the offerers.
* ok ung wedding singer nila don... ganda boses.. operatic ang dating, so i think no need for a choir since, konti lang nmn ung mga part na kailangang kumanta. since meron silang list of songs, don ka lang pwede pumili, pero kung wala, u have to provide a piyesa for them, ok lang.

so far un lang muna, next ocular namen, is when nikky comes back. sya nmn ang mag-oobserve kse bka may mga things pa ko na-miss out. by the way, marriage license, confirmation certificate of nikky, pre-cana seminar and canonical interview na lang kulang namen,. yipee konti na lang! :)

Entourage Gowns


This is for my Maid of Honor and for my Bridesmaid. This is the exact design that i wanted even th color. By the way, my motiff pla is navy blue and ivory white. No beadworks for them since i want it to be simple.. sympre dapat ako lang ang may beads! hehehe! The only difference is that the bridesmaid is midi length.. meaning maybe 2 inches below the knee.







This is for my Secondary Sponsors. The dress will be in navy blue and the ribbon is ivory white. The ribbon is thin as the MOH ribbon.













and last but not the least.. for the Flower Girls.. same colors as the secondary sponsors... i'll put some butterfly wings.. para cutie sila! hehehe

Galing di ba! Its an off -white bridal satin, matte side para makita daw ung beadworks.. para shimmering ever!!! and since sight mestisa ako.. (nyahaha) kya ams mabagay daw kung matte side ang gamitin.. oh by the way, nakapag first fitting na ko... and gawa na sya!!! may konting adjustments pa.. pero speechless ever ang emote ko nung nakita ko gown ko... dis is for real na tlga!! post ko next time ung actual pix, for my final fitting!

Unity Candle
Another masterpiece!!! hehehe... actually, i dont have any idea kung ano gusto ko maging design sa unity candle ko... this time i wanna make it on my own, coz its very expensive kung magpapagawa ka pa sa iba... laki ng natipid ko... medyo, mahirap ng konti kse you have to use pins, sympre di pwede ang glue.. lalo nmn ang glue gun!!! masakit sa finger ung kakatusok ng pins... pero kailangan tiis.. so ayan!!!

Materials needed : pins, decors, ribbons

Crystal Cord
Dis is my another DIY... i dont know if i just want to save more or im so maarte lang tlga... i think its both...hehehe... anyway, i dont wanna use an ordinary cord, you know ung parang rope... i saw a sample from Chris, galing pa ng abroad ung sample nya... i was thinking kung gagawa pa ko or bibili dito or papabili kay nikky, since sa US naman binili un.. pero umiral ung pagiging gifted ko, and mas ok kung personalized so i made it by myself...
Materials needed: nylon cord (they call it fishing cord not the stretchable one, cross, medallion(center), beads, stopper, pliers
Procedure:
* For the cross, insert the nylon cord don sa hole ng cross, then put a stopper to lock. then put beads depends how long you want it, when ur done, insert the nylon sa hole of the medallion, always put a stopper for locking purposes.
* Do it again to make a 2 rosary in one cross.

Our Invites (Mock-up)


Here's our mock-up invites from printed matter. Its a booklet type since i want our invites compiled and i think its not a usual type of invitation especially for wedding. Since our wedding will be fun and wacky, i've decided a caricature design..
