rental lang dresses mo? how many people? small to me is 100pax. siguro mga 100K. wala pa ang gowns and suits ana.

check out the different hotels they have promo na dala na kahit video gani. diplomat is one... metropark is another.

you missed the payment for your license and the church (if you're going to have a church wedding).

For entourage and suits, if branded ka, 100K or more ata, not sure coz different designer got
individual cost on a gown, but if pratical lang, you can have less 50K from entourage and suit,
depending on the wedding package.

does your entourage really need uniform designer dresses? the last weddings where i was in the entourage, the bride & groom sponsored the fabric (we were consulted on how many meters/yards we required). the entourage agreed on a theme/style, then we proceed to our individual designers/sewers. this way, bride & groom are spared the expense and hassle of coordinating fittings for 10 people (or more), yet we still looked like we were literally cut from the same fabric, and we wore clothes that suited our individual styles and budgets.

get help from talented and reliable friends/relatives who can contribute labors of love to the wedding. can someone make the invitations, bake the cake, lend & drive the wedding car, make/source the souvenirs...? involving people you know and care about makes the event more special.

the most important things are to plan the details well and get the support from people who care about you.

when you look for a church, look for the best deals. daghan churches nag offer package like inclusive floral arrangement and bridal car. i think one of the cheaper churches kay alliance. for the hotels, the ones i found to be best value for money are diplomat and casino espanol. ang diplomat has inclusive of bridal car, van for entourage ( if i remember right) and 2 rooms and the cake. make your own invites na lang. look for a friend who knows how to do lay outs then print it on nice paper. rent gowns for the entourage including your own gown. I rent out gowns for the entire entourage (first use so you get to choose your own design and motif) for only 5500, inclusive na na bridal gown.
