Majayjay Bed & Breakfast

I read about Majayjay Bed & Breakfast in a Bride and Breakfast post (read post on Majayjay wedding here) and I really thought the featured wedding was beautiful. Good thing the venue Majayjay B&B had a facebook site!

I have started communicating with the owner, Ms. Encar Ordonez, but I have yet to visit the place, so let me just share with you photos I got from their website and FB page. I have tried booking a room early this year but they seem to be always fully booked, especially on long weekends.

You can't blame me for considering this for my wedding, right? See that backdrop?
Lovely. Emotional. Humbling. Perfect for an intimate wedding.

No need for dressing the place up really. But then, they can transform it into this:

Long tables, simple white lanterns hanging overhead, clean table setting, I am so digging this. For my wedding though, I still prefer folding chairs.

But I heard these chairs would up to the cost so that's something a kuripot bride needs to reconsider.

As to the rates, FB page says, rent for the garden venue starts at P12,000 for three to four hours. I think this is inclusive of electricity consumption already. But it's best to get in touch with the owners/managers to better negotiate. And hey, that would just be a lovely excuse to go visit this place. Got to do it soon.

Time flies--fast!

Time, indeed, flies fast.

Yesterday, 14th of November 2015, was supposed to be our wedding day. And would you believe I only remembered tonight? Simply because Rye and I have decided to move it to a later date. And my fault really, as the date is an indefinite one still. Lots of issue but mostly the lack of time as I am now an employee (again) and strapped to my desk but more so because of finances. Having a baby is a real budget blower. The kuripot bride is really being challenged.

Just around this time last year, I sincerely thought time was on my side. I had a good 12 months of preparation ahead of me, I was jobless with no particular sked to follow. I could do it, right? Wrong. I got soooo occupied. Looking back, I cannot really recall how and where time went. So the wedding yesterday did not materialize. Where was I instead? I was at Valle Verde Country Club, participating in Bo Sanchez's Crash Course for Book Writing. Well, at least, I spent the day in an equally engaging manner.

I have been meaning to update the blog and keep you posted of the places I've been to lately that could pass up for wedding venues, particularly Club Balai Isabel. But since it's pretty late and the baby might wake up any moment now, I got to park this one and save it for my next post. Promise, I'll be back with details and photos.
