Well, we did went over our budget but I think it is considerable naman. We are so blessed kasi kahit wala na brother ko I still felt he was with us all through the way. We are surrounded by his friends who are more than willing to help make our wedding memorable, they even want to offer their services for free. We really appreciate everyone's help and support to make our wedding every bit possible.
Planning a wedding in one month is possible but beware kasi for sure it is really stressful lalo na pag on a tight budget kayo. But in the end, pag nandun ka na sa mismong araw at moment - magiging deadma na ang lahat and you would think that everything turned out perfectly as long as you are with your groom and also with the people you love and value the most.
Congratulations! How did your wedding go?
ReplyDeleteI myself am planning my wedding in Zamboanga (my hometown)and I have to agree that it isn't easy.
I hope you can share some tips like good suppliers who won't cost me an arm and a leg. :)
Thank you sis =) The wedding was not perfect kasi super kulang sa coordination, it's so hard talaga pag long distance na-plan ang wedding. Nevertheless it was still successful for me because all those who were important to me were there to witness our union. I have yet to compile my supplier ratings (which is so long overdue). But do check out my list of venues I have done, hope it helps.
