Felt Flowers
Kat and her sister have 34 felt flowers done for the bouquets. We're looking to do about 20 pieces more before they can start bunching them up for their final arrangements.
Boutonniere
We've been brainstorming for our boutonniere design ever since we thought about using felt cloth for our flowers. It just have to be equally quirky. Then we found this online...
It's stuffed felt cloth on twigs. Sobrang cute at match sa felt flowers ng mga babaeng sponsors. Of course, we'll apply some personal customization. Instead of a heart, we'll use "call out" shapes from comic strips. We are yet to talk on what can substitute for the twigs, though.
Nakakatawa nga na hindi namin agad ito naisip when just a few months ago, Kath's sister has a friend who has been doing and selling a similarly crafted stuffed toy at nagpagawa pa si Obi sa kanya.
Yun nga lang, it's another DIY project for Kath and her sister. Makakatipid kami, but it needs some serious labor of love.
One other boutonniere design that made it to our fancy is by using blank soda crowns as base. May nagawa nang prototype yung sister ni Kath and it looks interesting enough. Our next challenge now is to pick what among these two designs to use.
Entourage
The number of people walking down the aisle with us is down by a soul when Obi's father died four months ago. He was one of our most eager supporter (booked our church and discussed most of the logistics with us) and we know he'll be really happy for us to be finally wed. It's just sad that he didn't make it to be with us on our special day but he will sure be present in our hearts.
He always manifested to Obi's family as a butterfly so we are thinking of getting butterflies and releasing them at the venue. He'll love it.
Dress
I think we just solved our problem with the female entourage's wear. Enter the Infinity Dress...
Pros:
* Can fit any body shape and personal taste
* Cheaper than shouldering the cost of a tailor-made dress
* Comes in different colors
* Stores that sell them are accessible
Cons:
* Textile is usually made of jersey material so it's thin
Kelangan talaga merong linings yung mga parts where it could expose their unwanted areas due to it being thin. So what we are thinking is to have our female entourage fit the dress ahead of time and determine what style they will be using for the wedding. From there, we can have a couturier put the necessary adjustments for the linings, paddings, or whatever fixes required.
Schedule
We are booked on a morning but we are now considering making it at night. Abangan!
