a few updates..

Just a few updates since I got back in Manila... days ago I was in panic since most of my suppliers haven't confirmed yet... but thanks to my fellow w@wies I got back to my feet and faced what has to be done...

1. Booked Paul Vincent Photography as my back-up photographer, paid P5k DP already, package as ffs (parang madami hehe):

PHOTO SERVICE ONLY P8,000
- unlimited creative digital shots
- Paul Vincent as photographer
- proofs stored in CD all printable
- 3 locations: preps, ceremony and reception.

Pagdatin ko pa lang, as in nasa stairs pa lang ako ng McDo when I saw them (Ivy - wife nya, and Jane (sis in law ni Jacque) sobrang at ease na ko sa kanya, but before meeting him I know na sya ang kukunin ko for back-up, kung pde nga lang MAIN na eh, I like his style kasi, me being a photojourn myself, tapos sobrang ok sila kausap, sobrang nagtatawanan na lang kami.

2. I already paid in full for the venue rental ++ at Coconut Palace last Friday, so wala na kong iisipin about that... haay sa wakas everything seems to be falling into place.

3. When I paid at CP, went to Westin na din to book and pay for the hotel accomodations. Pagdating ko pa lang sa front desk and told them na I'll book na, aba eh pinapunta pa ko sa corner to pick up the phone and talk to a reservations assistant. Ganun daw talaga ang procedure nila and it sucks! Goodness, andun na nga ako and am about to pay na din, tapos I still have to use a phone! So dahil masunurin ako, I did just that and after about 10 long minutes of waiting eh may sumagot din sa wakas. Dahil sa ka-bad tripan ko, di muna ako nag bayad, nag pa book lang.

And did I mention that they require a P5k for location fee para lang makapag pa picture sa Pool Side nila (not to mention the stairs na until now under rennovation pa din), so I went around muna just to see if the 5k is worth it. So ok naman yung poolside, actually maganda, pero masama ang loob ko sa P5k ha.

4. Finally I was able to contact Dang for my Main Photo and Video, actually their studio is in Tarlac, Dang is hubby's kababata so we got a good package at a very reasonable price. As in parang gift na lang nya samin yun. We finalized everything, pati schedule ng pre-nup. But, we were not able to talk about the payment terms, haha.. sobrang na excite ako nakalimutan ko kelan ako dapat magbayad. She even promised to finish the mini album in time for my flight to US. The rest, pahabol na lang.

5. I already booked our flight for our Honeymoon in Bohol, unfortunately PAL is unable to confirm reservations with Ananyana and Panglao Island Nature Resort, so try ko sa Alona Tropical and Alona Palm, but I know medyo mas pricey sa Alona Palm, well, hintay na lang siguro ako and cross my fingers na sana mag ok na, kasi naman 1 month na lang.
