Engagement Shoot

This is one of the things I was looking forward to last September! But like the wedding, it was something I don't know what to expect. We did not have any plans on how to do this, no idea what to wear, where to shoot, what we liked, the theme or all those stuff!! All of the ideas were sort of came from whatever comes first hahaha!!
So initially, I wanted to deviate from the garden shoot as those are too typical. I've been researching about pre-nup locations and this blog had been really helpful. I wanted to shoot at Pinto Art Museum but later found out it was mighty expensive (haha) so asked around and one of my friends (Drew) told me about Ronac Art Center. So when I texted Ralph to book the session, I immediately panicked for the location and called Ronac up! For the outfits, my friend Drew Ortega of K Event Architects combined ideas for us! It was super helpful as he both know Dale and I. The props that we used were only the D <3 R, some books and Dale's cycling stuff. We minimized everything because I felt the venue will speak for itself (and it did!). It was a beautiful sunny day and I think we were lucky because during night time, it rained so heavily! I realised how tiring it is to smile for 2 hours straight!!!! Hahahaha! Imagining how long I'll be smiling for the wedding LOL. Here are some photos from the shoot (I created this blog to prevent myself from flooding social media hahaha). All are too lovely!!!!

Reception Venue Hunt

Until now we haven't booked our reception venue, I KNOW!! When we booked Hizon's, Irin panicked that until now we hadn't decided yet with the venue. Initially, we wanted North Forbes Pavillion and our minds was set to it. But because we took too long to arrange the booking, by the time we actually went to the office, it was already booked. Anyway for Makati weddings, you can check them out.

Caterer: Hizon's Catering

So finally, a major step accomplished! We booked our caterer yesterday- Hizon's Catering . :) We have been through LOTS of food tasting since October. We checked out Tamayo's Catering, Juan Carlo Catering and had two sessions with Hizon's. Hahaha! What I liked best about Hizon's is the set up, gorgeous!! They have different themes you can choose from. Our coordinator told us that the best seller is the Silver and White because whatever your motif is, the silver and white will make your colors stand out. But we'll still be checking other colors. Here are some pictures of the theme: Centerpieces and table set up. Pretty and elegant right? I could imagine my wedding motif standing out. They can customize table cards and have a menu on each seat. This is already an add-on during the last wedding package they offer it for P5,000. During last October, this can be selected to the amenities instead of the Wedding Emcee or Bridal Car! Also an option are Inv...

The Church Hunt

The biggest piece of them all, where we say "I Do". Dale and I were both Thomasians. So of course, we wanted to get Married and the UST Church. There was no second thoughts at first, we dropped by as early as September 2013 to book the Church. But admin people told us that they'll start reservations for November 2013 after the semestral break. So we waited.
