They volunteered to coordinate my wedding. At first I was hesitant kasi I want them to enjoy our wedding. I said I will hire a coordinator para hindi na sila mahirapan.
But they insisted that they do it. So sila na nga. I wanted my wedding to be simple lang, no fuss, hindi magarbo, hindi OA.
This wedding was prepared, 1 year advance but the actual preparation started when we booked our suppliers which was last December lang. but before that we've been through a lot of venue, bridal fairs, lahat ng bridal fair present kami, we have no difficulty naman kasi Irwin has a transpo. Alam namin kung ano ang gusto namin, cost effective na wedding. We would like to emulate a hotel wedding na hindi expensive.
Okey back to them, so it was like an OTD coordination, as early as two months or a month before the wedding, we were just discussing through mails or over phones kung ano ang mga gagawin, I had it all prepared for them para hindi na mahirap pero came weeks before the wedding when nobody responded to our RSVP, our problem began.
I would send everything through mails, tapos nag uusap kami ni Ish. Siya ang main point person. Actual meeting was Friday, because I called her and dapat magkausap sila ng taga Perfect Moment because they are covering our wedding.
Saturday, they went to the hotel and duscussed everything, lahat ng kulang, lahat inayos na.
It was hassle free for me, I had some mild tension because of the delay sa videographer and sa makeup artist pero everything was handled naman, Ako lang ang praning.
So how would I rate a coordinator friend, I'd say, it was like having a real/paid coordinator, maybe more, kasi they know you, they care for you, alam nila kung paano mapapaganda ang wedding nang hindi ka na maiistorbo. My wedding was like a fiesta, ang daming tao, ang saya, they were only like 3 or four of them plus my sisters and brothers, pero they were able to handle the situation. Bilib ang family ko sa kanila, even the guest, alam nila kung ano ang hirap at sacrifice na binigay nila sa wedding namin.
Considering I attended a wedding last June 19 with a coordinator, OUT of the BOX, sila Christine Daria plus her husband and 3 more staff, litaw sila kasi they were wearing pink tops, they handled the registration, and sa church, ay sus, ganun lang pala ka simple ang pag co coordinate sa wedding, kasi they have less guest, yung sa labas ng church kami pa ang natanong kung sila ang coordinator kasi hindi siya lumalapit to ask kung sino ang mag shower ng flowers. Then they asked for the signtures of the guest, then they collected the table number per table, simple lang pala. Kayang kaya.
Well, coordinators are there to make your wedding easy and hassle free, as for me, I enjoyed my wedding and so is everyone else.
