Saturday Activities

had the whole day spent with lulette. we visited fitness first in greenhills, lunch at a resto in greenhills, had my measurements taken by my bridal gown designer at kamuning, visited fitness first in abs-cbn, and attended the cocktails at oasis.

fitness first, greenhills

picked up lulette at her place at around 830. then, headed straight to greenhills and saw their membership consultant, jhomz. jhomz answered all our inquiries and explained everything well, plus a some chitchat, off topic on the membership. hehehe... we filled up and signed all necessary documents, and had our first ever hiphop dance class from 11am-12nn. whoa!!!! ang saya! after the class, we tried to figure out if the dance instruction is a badinggerie... hmmm... 1-2 more classes, then, we'll see hehehe...


lunch

forgot the name of the resto. anyhow, they have the most delicious scrambled egg i've ever tasted!!!!


bridal gown measurements

from greenhills, we headed next to john abul's shop to have my measurements taken for my bridal gown. my appointment was at 3pm, but due to a little saturday traffic, we arrived at kamuning at 315-330. well, john was a bit busy then, so, i guess, he didn't notice that i was late. hehehe.... john seems to be in a good mood yesterday. we talked about the bridal gown, the suit for the groom (which he'll make for only 12k with a material similar to hugo boss' -- o dba, bongga?!), the reception venue, and the intrimidida girl whom he made a gown for a wedding. hehehehe.... i saw his facial impression (almost a taas-kilay look) that he was kinda pissed with the girl's suggestion of removing the chiffon material at the gown's neckline to make it look like a sleveless dress. well, that chiffon material adds elegance to the gown, plus, as john said covers her revealing stretch marks somewhere near her arms and armpit. hahaha... imbryena talga ang bading! hehehe...

john is a designer who is easy to talk to. though, he's a bit intimidating, in my opinion. plus, the fact that he's kinda cute.... well..... d talo... hahaha... anyhow, i'll have my first fitting on july 16th. waaaaahhhhh..... july 16 na!!!!! we again talked about the details of the gown, what he will do with the corset type top, the support needed for my breasts, since i have a larger pair for my small body frame. oh well... he advised to wear a bra... need to find one by the way, for a backless type of dress that gives the proper support. i think i already saw one at whacoal. he advised to have it ready for the first fitting... btw, my gown will be a bustier type that goes really low at the back. the top is separate from the skirt, so that the weight of the gown will not drag the top hala! baka malaglag! hehehe... he'll also make the top a bet stiff kahit daw makipag away at makipagsabunutan ako, the top will never fall. hehehe... war freak! hehehe... more updates on the gown after the fitting. can't believe the wedding is in 6mos!!!!


fitness first, abs-cbn

we then, checked out the facilities of the abs cbn fitness first club. checked out also the dance schedules.


oasis opening

finally, the oasis opening. this garden venue is really beautiful, i almost fell in love with it. it located along aurora boulevard, near the our lady of mount carmel shrine parish church. yeah! our wedding ceremony venue! the landscape is really beautiful. i have some negative comments, though... i can smell the creek behind it, the lighting is not enough to see the beautifully landscaped garden (though, the luminaries are very nice), the background for the bride and groom (for wedding events) is not really big enough, plus, i get a glimps of the aurora blvd and the lrt, they should have planted tall trees or placed bamboos to cover the "eye sore", as lulette calls it. the place costs 55k (accdg to a friend) for the first 150 guests, then, 150/head for the succeeding guests. hmmm.... that will cost us almost 77.5k. dunno how strict they are yet, i'll inquire on the corkages and other fees. here are some photos of the place...
