Vacation turned Wedding Preps Part 2

June 30, 2011 - Had ocular inspection at our reception venue.

In between discussions of which MRT station we should've gone off, we finally arrived at our reception venue after more than 15minutes of walking. We went straight to the administration office, and Ms. Noreen advised us to go straight to the venue, and Kirby would assist us.

The venue was currently in use when we got there, good thing it had just ended so we were able to view the room, took pictures, and discussed which to place where. It also helped that because there was an event, we were able to visualize a bit on how the set-up should be.

July 1, 2011 - Went to the Bridal Bliss at Resorts World Manila.

We left Sauyo at 3PM, arrived at Resorts World Manila by 5:30PM. It took ~15minutes to be able to get our membership card (yup, they would not let us go in without a membership card), we finally arrived at the fair and was able to be assisted by 5 different suppliers, 3 of which were caterers, one was for a photobooth, and the last one was for photo+video. In short, we weren't able to gain anything from the 2 1/2-hr trip to RWM, and the almost 3-hr trip back home.

July 2, 2011 - Went to attend Pre-Cana Seminar & had ocular inspection at our church.

The seminar was scheduled at 9AM but the personnel said we should be there at 8:30AM. We afrrived at 10 to 8, and were the earliest couple to arrive. There was a wedding at 9AM so we were able to see the "upgraded" flower set-up. We were also able to get the contact details of their in-house florist.

Pre-Cana was OK. The talk was from 9AM up to 6PM, with 1hr lunchbreak. We were able to get the certificate right after the seminar. However, we weren't able to talk to the church personnel to ask some more stuff because their office closed at 5:30PM.
