2. Fr. Blanco’s Garden (reception venue) - paid in full (P10k rental for 4hrs.)
3. Makati Skyline (caterer) - paid reservation fee of P20k (balance deductible);
4. Bride’s Attire (Veluz) - Bridal package complete with gown, shoes & accessories (veil, 2nd veil,leg & bible garter, arrhae&ring pillows, & cord) which was paid in full on Oct’04. I haven’t received the portfolio yet. It was already checked with the local post office (USPS). I’m just waiting for the results of their investigation. My measurements were already submitted on Feb20. Veluz is supposed to send the fitting garment on Mar13.
5. Groom’s Attire (Veluz) - Nothing has been done yet.
6. Ento Attire - Designs are available courtesy of Veluz. We just have to ask the moms to choose which is which. We are really considering Mrs. Bautista for the entourage gowns. I was also thinking of getting the 'barongs' from her. Wednesday will meet with her again to get sample swatches and finalize pricing.
7. Rings - Irvin has met the jeweler that Wednesday was recommending. He has seen some samples. We were already given a package price for the ER and bands. We still have to set up another meeting for specs finalization.
8. Photographer (Mimi Abesamis & Karl de Leon) - paid the P10k down payment
9. Videographer - wala pa
10. Cake (Alex Franco) - He doesn't accept down payment or reservation fee. Wednesday will discuss with him the design by next week.
11. Bridal Car (Streetline Bridal Cars) - paid the reservation fee of P500. The details of the package that we got can be seen from my previous post.
12. Florist - don't know yet
13. Keepsake for the guest - none yet
14. Gifts for the Ento - Nothing has been finalized yet.
15. Invites, RSVP & TY cards (Kuya Louie) - I have already made a draft of the invite, rsvp & the insert. Wednesday is suggesting for some revisions. We're thinking of having a really simple design for this... monogram of our initials on the invite proper, embossed wordings in black, etc.
16. Missal - We're not sure yet but more or less DIY.
17. CEE or DW Seminar - No idea yet
18. Wedding Paraphernalia
a. Arrhae - silver CHF5 coins (swiss francs c/o Tita Baby from Switzerland)
b. Basket or Box whatever for the arrhae - none yet
c. Bible - none yet
d. Luminaries - DIY
e. Guest Sheets - DIY. We're thinking of incorporating our pre-nups pics on these but no idea yet as to the design proper.
f. Back drop (sort of streamer) - I'm just thinking of this. Irvin doesn't even have an idea yet that I want us to have this.
g. Feather pen - still looking for a nice one

I'm not sure if I have listed everything...but I think these are all.
