I hate it when my conscience talks.
I already posted something on http://www.mywedding.com/angeloandhazelle/ but I think it's much better to transfer them here :)

The CHEAPSKATE.
I am getting married on the 11th of October. My fiance and I decided to go for a civil wedding but my parents were a bit not-too-happy about that (especially my dad). I came from a big family and I'm the eldest. I will be the first one to get married in the family so my dad was like "What?!" when we told him that we would get married. Also, a civil wedding is not that costly and I am not a fan of weddings and all the preparation.
But ALAS! If they prefer a church wedding and I guess we had to give it to them.
Four months of preparation. Just 4 months. I am working 12 hours a day and my fiance's also working Mondays to Saturdays.
I didn't get any wedding coordinator because I wanted to be practical. I do not want to spend a lot on the wedding day itself because I want to be more prepared with our life AFTER the wedding day.
I only have 30 days left before my wedding and honestly, it's a very stressful journey. I never thought it would be this stressful and costly! (I am so sorry because I am just a certified 'kuripot').
I am glad that my fiance is so supportive and he's always there to encourage me. I know he is also stressed but he does his best to make us smile and laugh (if you are reading this, Dadi, I love you!!!! ^^)

First, we had to look for a good wedding invitation. I am not a fan of overly-decorated, perfumed-scented, over-the-top wedding invitations. I wanted a DIY wedding invitation wedding invitation but I just do not have the luxury of time to do that. :(
Definitely not this:

Good thing we were able to find one in Divisoria, the heaven for shoppers. We were able to get it from JMP Bridal Gowns, Invitations, Events Needs located at 168 Mall.
A wedding invitation for 60pesos / piece? Not bad. Less hassle.
Here's a photo of their stall from their website:
Here's what the invitation looks like:
We are going to have a black-and-white themed wedding so I opted to go for this very very simple design.
