I already shared our love story before but for those who did'nt read it ,I've meet this man last 2013,when I was assigned here in their place his one of the guard in the department store where I was working ,he had a family before but they don't have a good association ,they are living together for two years I think because of their son ,the girl was working abroad before ,when she got home my husband find them an apartment for the girl and their son coz they don't understand each other and came to the point that they hurt physically each other.To make the story short coz its long already ,the girl got pregnant with another guy and back to her home with their son and my husband also start courting me ,we been in two months with no label relationship and I got pregnant ,how was it happened?no label but got pregnant?haha,no label but had a mutual feelings lol.We decided that we live together and I was stop working after I gave birth to my son .That was last 2016 and August 10,2019,we decided to get married and since we both catholic we decided to have a church wedding .I wanted to have a simple wedding since we don't have much money to spend it but his family especially his ate (elder sisters)wanted to have a special but not so special .,so here's our preparation for our wedding day.
Documents needed in the city hall
1.-An application for a marriage licence and we payed 500pesos or $10 .
2.Submit a cenomar or Certificate of non marriage and our birth certificate which we get this from PSA and we spent 420pesos for this.
3.-Pre-Marriage Counseling Certificate,we need to attend a half day seminar for this.
Church documents needed
1.Certificate of Baptism and Confirmation from the both of us ,since I did'nt yet recieve the confirmation ,I need to attend a 3 hours seminar with the others who in needs also for their wedding.And we spent 400pesos or$8 for this .
2.Then submit also your documents from the city hall and set a date in our weddi g day.
Wedding preparations
At the church ,we need to pays 2,000pesos and 1,700 for the choir and the readers.Since our wedding date was on a special date ,we need to pay that amount.But if you will choose the not special date which is every thursday ,then you don't need to pay for it but its only the two of you had a wedding that day.And there's no entourage and a church decor
Gowns-we are renting a gowns for me and for my husband and for the entourage together with the parents dresses.We spent 10,000pesos for all the gowns and suits we needed.
Ring-My sister in law ,offer us that she will be the one who buy our wedding ring.And it cost 10,000 but I said to my husband that we will buy a silver one coz it just only cost 1,500-2000pesos but her sister insisted that she will be one who buy for us.
Invitation cards and souvenir-I was buying a non finish souvenir coz its cheaper and I was the one who put some desig on it.I only spent 1000pesos or $20 for the souvenir and 200 pesos for the envitation cards ,my ate did our envitation cards coz she had a computer and own printer at home,anyways she is a teacher.
The venue-since we had only a small house ,and there is big space for us and the visitors ,I was looking for a place and we decide that we rent a resort so that after the wedding reception ,we had a swimming time.We spent 6000pesos the the resorts.
The decorations-churchs deco and in the venue ,we spent 5000 pesos for it.It was jus a simple decorations.Most of the decorations was the lowest is 10,000 and since the coodinator is my sister in law friend,he find way to have a simple cheaper decorations.
The Food-We raised two pigs ,1pig for the lechon and the other one for different recipes.We spent 10,000 for the catering service in which it good for 100persons and had an additional food from our raised pig.
The photographer and sound system-My husband's friend offered us a free photographer but we regrets for it coz until now ,he did'nt give us our pictures .My husband gave him a 1000pesos as our payment for him even though he said it was a free and his gift for us but he just only gave me flash drive with pictures but he does'nt edited it .And for the sound system we spent 1000 pesos and it was so funny an epic failed when we came to the venue from the church ,of course they make a sound to welcome the newly wed and my sister in law notice that sounds was for graduation march ,hahaha ,so funny right?she make sure that no one take a video for us.And quickly change the sounds hahha.
Hindi ako naiyak while walking in aisle,si mister ang naiyak kasi I choose the music of "I finally found Someone by Barbara Streisand &Bryan Adam at ang intro kasi is instrumental ,naiyak talaga si mister ,baka gusto niyang e utlrong ang kasal hahaha ,charing lang .Dun ako naiyak nung nag speech na ako grabe yung iyak ko ,wala pa namag mahanap na panyo kay ,table napkin ginamit ko🤣
The estimated amount we spent for our wedding day was more or less 70k.Lahat na yun kasama na yung mga pamasahe ,yung rent ng sasakyana at yung baboy.Bahay na sana yun no?Hahah okay atleast we are living together legally na and we recieved the holy sacrament for marriage.And we recieve 15,000pesos from the pinning of money for us and alots of gifts❤️
