Bridal Fairs and Events Galore: February

Thanks to Philip Martin for this cute clipart

Hello again peeps. It's been a long time since I posted something like this, and as usual, this is really gonna be something quick. Just wanted to give you guys a rundown of events happening this love month. Now, I and the Other Guin may be done scouting for crew, since Cosa Nostra had been a success. But that doesn't mean we cannot attend fairs anymore, does it? Well, the Other Guin and I have thinking of including events into our operations (so if you need someone to check on your events, just call on the Wedding Mafia), so I guess we can still roam around fairs, right?

Bridal Fairs and Events Galore: November

One more month to go before the Guins' greatest heist. I think we have all the operations covered, except for those that needs to be done at home. Well, according to the Male Guin, we are still on track with our DIYs, so I guess we can still say that we're pretty much covered.

There are just soo many things happening this month, with the holiday season coming, and Cosa Nostra. One thing I am really excited about November... if we're gonna get that cake from BIDO... 8->

Now, on with our show:

Bridal Fairs and Events: October

The Female Guin is taking this opportunity to update you with events coming our way this month. I'm so sorry I had already missed a week this month. Aside from the two events I missed last week, we still have two fairs, a handful food tasting events and a wedding photography seminar coming up. So, for those who are still out in looking for their suppliers, or want to enjoy covering a wedding, or simply get ideas for your events, check these events out.

Our counter says we had already touched down with the 2-digit countdown to Cosa Nostra -- and yes, I dont feel the pressure, and yes, I am not [yet] stressed with the preps. In fact, I'm beginning to enjoy it as it sinks in that we only roughly three months to prep. Up until now, we still haven't booked the artist to make the Female Guin and the rest of the entourage look gorgeous and fab for the clan to admire (char!). Still a lot of details to go buy, but have accomplished quite a few in the past month. 

I'm sorry for posting late this month; the Guins and the some of the crew where pretty occupied with some scheduled and unexpected missions in and out the industry. It's better late than never though (too bad wasn't  able to register in this week's fair, darn it!)...

Bridal Fairs and Events Galore: August

August is just around the corner, and so are fairs. There are a couple fairs in my list month and perhaps, will get invites from caterers holding their food tasting events. Better get those rain boots, sandals or whatever rainy footwear you love, and umbrellas, because we're gonna be out on the weekends - 4 months to go people!

Now after all the fairs last month (which we weren't able to go to), we suddenly hear crickets around - it seems that there wont be many bridal fairs this month. But that doesn't give you an excuse to stay home and stop hunting for things you would need for your own operations. I got here some events where you can still scout for suppliers, and a lot of end-of-season sales for your fashion needs. I also found some bridal events you guys might want to visit if you're anywhere near the south or northern areas. I would like to give Fresh Promos the credits for the sale copies and Kasal.com for the fairs' copy and photos :)

Bridal Fairs and Events Galore: June

Here comes the wedding month of June.  For some couples, June is one of the months of the year to get married, and for some, June marks the start of prep period for December operations. Six months before the Cosa Nostra, and we still have the two crew slots vacant. Well, I must admit, May has been an awf'ly busy month for the Guins. Hopefully, we get those slots filled this month. For this month, I'm adding some out of town events, for OOT GT Belles (thanks sis patchi2012 for the request).

Bridal Fair and Events Galore: May

It's now the "marry" month of May: summer-spring, flowers, fiesta, and of course, a lot of weddings and fairs to go to. Our ticker tells us that we have 7 months to go 'til Cosa Nostra, and until now, we still have two crew slots vacant. I am sooo crossing my fingers that we get these slots filled, so we can go on with planning Cosa Nostra.

We're now half-way through the year, and there are a lot of events coming up this month. Brace yourselves, ladies and gentlemen, and have those calendars (and cash, checkbooks, and your walking shoes too!) ready, for this month's rundown of fairs and events.

Bridal Fair and Events Galore: April

Here we go again with our run down of events... This is becoming like a habit for me every month. And now that I learned that I can actually update the date when posts are published, posts for events and fairs will be brought up everytime I update them (kewl, isn't it... sorry, not much of blog geek, but i dont blame if I become one. This could be addicting (0_o) )

Summer has officially begun, and with this, we have Summer sale schedules, GFTs, and of course, bridal fairs. So get that workout for the big by going to these events.

Bridal Fair and other Events Galore: March

Here we go again... March has a lot of events lined-up, so better keep that calendar updated, because our weekends may not be as free as we thought it would be. I thought of including other events which we may find useful, and slightly related to Cosa Nostra.

Bridal Fair Chronicles: Weddings and Debut Fair 2011 Day 3

We weren't able to visit all the stalls on Saturday, so we went back to the Weddings and Debut Fair in Megamall the next day. It was the last day of the fair, and we have a few more suppliers to look for. Kiko has decided to consider Ms Ven Ocampo to do our gowns. So now, on with our HMUA (Hair and Make Up Artist - for those new to the lingo) and wedding rings hunt. But first, we went to the secretariat's booth to get our raffle ticket from the on-site booking we made the day before.

Bridal Fair Chronicles: Weddings and Debut Fair 2011 Day 2

Almost a week after the recent bridal fair. Quite a number of accomplishment, I might say. We had a number of things lined up last weekend, starting with Kiko's grade school friends' reunion, the Bagunu-Alcala matriarch in the hospital, and the bridal fair in Megamall. These, I guess, are all a breather for me. 

Anyway, since we woke up late on Saturday, we got in Megamall at around noon time, so we decided to have lunch for before we go the fair. After our buffet at Cabalen, we went up to the Megatrade Hall to register. All Megatrade gates were open for registration and entrance to the event. From the registration booth, I could hear Leggiero playing from the Hall 2; and they never fail. ☺ I finally got my tickets, and just waited for Kiko at the gates.

Bridal Fair Chronicles : The Ultimate Wedding Fair 2011 Megatrade Hall

This blog is sooo long overdue. This should have been posted weeks ago, but I think was "frantically" busy (i guess for the lack of a better way to describe) that week, plus our Puerto Princesa holiday we had the week after. 

Anyhoo, just wanted to share what happened when I went to the fair.

Bridal Fair Chronicles: Hizon's GFT at Pergola plus P/V booked!

30 January 2011

While waiting for anyone to become available

The last week of January has been very busy, not to mention, very stressful. I guess this is just the first of many for the next 11 months. It's been almost a month now since we started the preps, and so far we only have three suppliers ticked off our list. I know we still have a long way to go, and time is running out. Just like how the Other Guin would say it, "Parang Amazing Race..."

Bridal Fair and other Events Galore: February

It's February now... Time flies so fast. And until now, we are still looking for our reception venue. =( Oh well, I guess, we just need to work harder. I'm still crossing my fingers that FHL will be available, or Pergola.

Anyway, I am always on the look out for upcoming bridal fairs and events. Here's what's coming up this month:

Bridal Fair Galore | January

With the reservation schedule fast approaching, we thought we should also start hunting for suppliers now. Once we get the date nailed, that's it... everything should follow. Since that's the case, I'm now keeping track of bridal fairs and events where we can find resources, get discounts and lots of freebies. I wouldn't mind winning in raffles too; who knows, we might just get something really, really nice. *wink wink*

This month, according to my best friend Google, and to my inbox, here are what's happening in Megatrade, SMX and other venues for couples-to-be:

Kyemeng Monday

Still can't get over with our blogsite so I thought of checking on just a few minutes ago. And there I saw, we have been clicked 29 times! Whoa! So, who might have visited us, that I don't know, but am happy that someone actually clicked on the link I posted of FB last night (err, morning na pala) before I went to bed.

It's an unusually slow Monday for me today... Nothing much on my plate when I got in the office. Just needed to make a call to a client for TPR then to the workshop about an order, then nothing much for my real job. So here I am now... just hitting the keyboard with what's keeping my brain cells running.

I dunno if you would call it excitement or what, but I just feel like we should get things started. So Kiko and I made our tentative guest list (which I don't know where i last placed it on) about a month ago (before the ring came), attended the Themes & Motif's bridal fair at SMX, got lots of leaflets (which I know I wont look back any time soon), and now, here I go again with this weekend's Kasalan 2010 at Megatrade Hall 1 and 2 in Megamall. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we had already registered, but still not sure if we can go there. It's a 3-day event, starting on Friday, 15 October, until Sunday, 17 October. So far, my schedule is already halfway full: have work on Friday until 5pm, gym with Di after; deliveries for 3 of my TPR brides, then probably gym after; then birdwatching with my birder friend Tin on Sunday. As usual, we'll never know how my weekend would be until Friday. Megamall will also have their 3-day sale on those dates, so still either go to Megamall on Saturday for gym, the fair, and sale, or not at all.

I'm sure I'm not making any sense now... I told you so, I'm just hitting the key board. I still need to figure out how I can put stuff in this blog site together, and a lot of catching up on our posts. I wonder if people can follow us even if they don't have a google account? Hmmm...
