Need to be done:

1. Gownmaker - I've done a lot of scouting, but surely entou gowns will be done by Willie So of Maning's Lace. For my bridal gown, I'm still deciding to get The Bridal Factory or Sabella kasi suki na si mom sa Sabella baka makakuha ng discount. My cousin naman ask me to try Bert Balingit, kaso wala naman ako makuhang feedbacks sa W@W so maybe di siya ganun ka-sikat. Pero I'll try na rin. Dapat na ba ako magpanic? waaaahhhh!
2. Barongs - sa Tesoro's sila magpapagawa... kahit a month before the wedding nalang daw sila magpapagawa nila h2b. Si dad nang-suggest na dun nalang para maka-discount since 3 sila na magpapatahi, isasama na nila si Jason ... o di ba?
3. Invites - Papemelroti - sa Papemelroti na talaga gusto ko kaso di pa nafa-finalize yung mga details sa wedding namin kaya di pa kami nagpapagawa. Saka we went there nung Monday kaso wala na sila sample nung invites.
4. Souvenirs - Haven't finalized yet what souvenirs I wanted for my wedding. I'm letting my tita decide about it since gift nya sa akin yun, pero gusto niya ako daw mag-decide hehehe.
5. DW - sa July pa kami naka-sched.
6. Documents - to early pa ...baka August pa to.
7. HMUA - yung HMUA ko na-booked na ng friend niya 2 weeks ago, kaya on search nanaman ako. I scouted a lot of HMUA that are reasonable naman sa budget, pero ang problem kailan magpapa-trial make up. Kaya di ako maka-decide.
8. Bridal Car - gusto sana namin vintage car, kaso ang mahal ...ranging from 10k up kaya we're thinking of other options nalang.
9. Music - sa church lang sana ako kukuha ng quartet para maganda yung sa ceremony di ba? kaso I don't know kung sino kukunin na mura lang... 10k below sana...may alam ba kayo?
10. Hotel Preps - Hotel Rembrandt siguro ...start na si dad magpareserve kasi yung mga cousins ko from US dadating so dun din sila iha-house... kaya kailangan na talaga magpareserve.
11. Party Poppers - forgot to buy sa Divi huhuhu I'm so bad...
