On-the-Day Wedding Coordinator

Recently, engagements here and there are happening and wedding planning was the second best part of getting married (aside from of course, "getting married"). When Lester and I were starting the wedding plans, we initially thought of getting my sister and cousins to help me on our wedding day because we were carefully planning which of the expenses we can eliminate. After a couple of bookings for suppliers, we realized that on-the-day wedding coordinator is really a must. Thanks to my sister-in-law for sending us budget that we were supposed to put for musicians but we opted to use it for OTD. :) Budget tip: It's always a big help and it's not bad to receive wedding budget help from your families and friends :) But use it wisely!  However, there's a big responsibility behind getting an OTD. Still, you must do your planning carefully, and everything must be in order. I suggest to extensive research on wedding planning. There are lots of checklists, wedding time

Bali Vacation Day 1

Lester and I wanted to have our honeymoon out of the country and the place that only came in our minds was Bali. Located in Indonesia, Bali is an island and a province where most of the population are Hindu.

How I Made It Thru My Laziness

I woke up one morning and thought, I want to shop! But I was too lazy to get up and dress myself to pass by malls before I go to work. And then, I remembered my good friend Zalora. I wasn't really a fan of buying things online (especially huge amounts) because I feel my credit card might get screwed and might end me owing something I did not purchase. Aside from that, I was also not really very confident that I might not get the right size or it's not the one I bought, or simply, I don't like it at all, pala! Until I knew of someone who has tried this online purchasing and so I tried it.  This is already my second time to buy in Zalora.

My favorites come from Spring Fling and Something Borrowed. Affordable, classy and
