I am so happy that Cathy and I finally agreed on the rates of the floral arrangements and the flowers that are going to be used for the wedding. The first quotation she showed me, with regards to the flowers that she suggested, are very different from the flowers above (and of course the price). I asked for hydrangeas, bells of ireland, and the green carnations and mums. I wanted, of course, for the color purple to be very dominant, and to make it more lively, Cathy put in the green flowers for contrast.

All in all, ngayon pa lang, I am very satisfied with IFlowersSpeak's services. Cathy is very friendly and very maasikaso. She really knows her stuff, and is very passionate about her craft. What I really like about her is that she *cares* about her client. Like for example, she was the one who suggested that we use the aisle arrangements as table centerpieces. If you really were just about money, you wouldn't suggest that right? Kaya talagang gumaan yung loob ko sa kanya.

That's it, my May update. Still don't have photo and video, but I only have two choices for both photo and video. I hope I can meet up with them this week, if work-related stress does not get in the way. Also, Dar's sched is killing our time together, as he works from 10 PM to 7 AM, with his off-days moved to Thursday and Friday. So basically, I can only ask him to come with me during Thursday and Friday, after my office hours, that is after 5pm. During weekends, we really can't accomplish anything as he gets home from work around 9-10 AM, then he sleeps after lunch.

Waaaaah!!! So many things to do, so very little precious time.

That's why having signed the contract for Cathy's services really made me feel like I accomplished something major for the wedding. ^_^

obssessed over wedding preps @ 5:33 AM
