Wedding & Debut 2014 Expo 19th Edition

I have very little sleep when I went to this Bridal Fair and wasn't interested in looking for suppliers so I end up just going around and getting fliers. Haha! :)

My jaw dropped though when I entered and saw Edward Teng's wedding gowns. It was very beautiful! I also want a jaw-dropping gown! Hahaha! :) But yeah, it's not like I really really wanted it.

I didn't enjoy the bridal fair, I'm sure I'll be able to enjoy it if Steven was there with me. Hehe ♥

Tagaytay Wedding and Travel Expo 2nd Season

It was such a big hassle to go to Tagaytay at 4:00 in the evening. I was supposed to wake up before 6:00 in the morning and by 6:00 am I'll be leaving home and travel to Tagaytay. But I woke up almost 9:00 am and to think that I'd be still doing a lot of stuff like print the bridal fair tickets and withdraw money and figure out how to go to tagaytay. I don't think I'm gonna make it. I knew I should've done those things days before the event! Hahaha! Lesson learned! :)

I was losing hope but Steven couraged me and told me that I can do it. One thing I love about my fiance is, he never fails to calm me down whenever I panic. And that is always. Yes, I always panic. Hahaha! Sorry love! ♥

I left home just before the clock reached 11:00 am. I was able to do the things I have to do in less than 2 hours including the time for commuting from home to cubao. So that means, I'm done at around 12:30 pm. But since I am gonna commute, I looked for the buses going to Tagaytay, but couldn't find one. I hate when I ask people and they just sort of like point there mouths out to some direction, I mean. Telling the direction using your voice isn't that much of an effort, right? Okay, in short I was lost because of my lack of knowledge and people that were lazy to speak. lol

I went all around cubao and even waited for a bus that never came. Waited for like an hour and half or less. But still! I'm so not glad to stand and wait there, taking all in the pollution from roaring vehicles and having a black-smoke facial care from nasty smoke belchers. Add up the 3:00 pm heat. Oh Metropolis, why thou punish me?!

I then decided to ride a bus and go to Coastal Mall. I didn't do that in the first place because I know it was time consuming but I should've done it! ARRGH. I was really annoyed that time! 

I finally rode a bus going to Tagaytay. I couldn't afford to wait for the next bus since I'm running out of time, so even if the bus was packed I still rode it. The problem is, I was seated next to a guy. Okay. I don't like sitting next to a guy on public transportations. I knew he was a perv he tried touching my side and I slapped his hand so hard and shouted "Ang bastos mo! Gago ka ba!?" and everyone looked at our way. He was kicked out of the bus after that. 

After that, I was at peace and just relaxed at the bus. I was trying to sleep but I couldn't since I don't know whether I had to get down or not. Talk about a newb. I never really went to Tagaytay alone and just by commuting. It was scary and I was so nervous because I hate long bus rides. I always think that the bus is going to crash or something. lol I'm paranoid, I know.

I finally came to Tagaytay at 6:00 pm and asked around on how I'll gonna get to Tagaytay International Convention Center. I really wanted to cry that time and was feeling helpless because I'm so scared and alone. I wanted to just find someone I know and feel safe.. But yeah, I know that's impossible so I have to go and look for it. I finally arrived at the venue and booked two of our wedding suppliers. It felt so nice and all the bad things that I experienced that day was gone. I thought of Steven and thought: "This is it! We're gonna get married!" 

I wasn't able to look around and talk to suppliers but I did talk to this one make-up artist. I also had a free trial. And wow. Look at me:

I totally hated it!!! After that trial makeup, I didn't have the face to talk and walk around so I looked for a CR and freakin wash the makeup off, but I'm scared the mascara would mess my eyes. (since, btw, she put a lot! lol!) I just used a lot of tissue to take off some of the shit she used on my eyebrows and face. 

Oh, did I also told you she shaved and trimmed my eyebrows without asking me. I mean, she should've warned me before doing it, but no. I know she's older than me but what the freakin hell, I'm a possible customer and you don't mess your relationship with a possible customer!!! lol anyway. This is what I looked like after I take it off. I looked better. I felt better. Even with tired eyes and big eyebags.

That day wasn't for me. They all wanted to piss me off. Haha!

But yeah. I went home with a smile on my face. And imagined that Steven was there with me. ♥ Everything is so much better with him. I bet he would've have laughed at my face if he saw me with that make-up on. (Laugh in a good way). That or he'll punch the girl who made my make-up. Joke. lol

1st Bridal Fair - Before I Do Bridal Fair Series (17th Edition)

I was a little nervous and a little scared on going to this fair because I am afraid that suppliers might judge me, but I was wrong! I was all excited and a little talkative while talking to suppliers. Haha!

It was a very fun experience. I met suppliers that were a little pushy in booking them and I met a lot of suppliers that were nice and fun! They were also open to talking about the styles and pegs that I wanted! Some were a little surprise that I figured out almost everything that I wanted and that our wedding would still be on 2016.

I was a little tired when I came because I didn't have much sleep but when I was there I was full of energy! Haha!

When I went to the entrance I gave my ticket to the girl and she wrapped a paper bracelet around my wrist. 

There were a lot of suppliers and I don't know how I'll start. I started on the right haha but I skipped some suppliers because I already know what I want. I mean I am open too, but I don't want to be carried away by their sales talk. Haha Peace yow! ♥

I liked some of the suppliers, I was able to know the price ranges of the flowers, how many dozens florists actually used on bridal bouquets and much more stuff. 

I also looked at some P/V but I am honestly inlove with the works of Manny and April. So, I am just looking around for my cousin. Hehe :)

I've read a lot of blogs about Margarush so I tried some but I didn't like it. Haha Maybe it's because I'm not a drinker. But still, I was kinda hoping they're good so I can serve minimal alcohols on my wedding for my guests to enjoy. But I don't think we'd be getting them now. Hehe Sorry Marga-lovers!

My aunt had her make-up too. I also wanted to have a trial make-up on the other stations but I didn't. Maybe on the next bridal fair I'll have my trial make-up. Hehe

Blu Plates had their food tasting too. I have a seperate review here.

I was happy to know that Photoman was also there. I was kind of eyeing them already but I dropped the thought off my mind before because I wanted a lot of things for my wedding already. I don't know if I want photos as souvenirs for my guests but I am considering it again when I saw the Photoman. I love the idea of an instant paparazzi. Hahah!

It was a fun experience but it would be more fun if Steven is with me *sad face*

Stupid Distance.
