Blessing in disguise na din kasi when I went to my Tita’s office to bring the tela to be used by her daughter (kanya-kanya na kasi ng patahi ang entou ko - gift na nila sa akin un, I only provided the tela and accessories.), she brought out a potential give-away, a “gasera” which can be used as an incense, and asked me kung OK na invites ko. Sabi ko, wala pa, kasi medyo prinioritize namin yung malakihang gastos. So sabi nya, “Magkano ba yun?” Sabi ko, 50 pesos (on top of my head). “Ilan ba papagawa mo?” Sabi ko, 75pcs lang Tita, konti lang naman ang guests eh. Aba! Naglabas ng checque! So, in short, may budget na kami sa Invites c”,)
I just mentioned Printed Matter to Edil and told him that they do custom designs. Out of the blue, I called Phoebe up, ask for directions and told Edil: “Do you wanna go?” Sabi nya, “Sige, tara.”
We had to take Matthew (again, grabe yung bata, kasama na sa wedding preps! Tagaytay to Divisoria, kasama!) and guess what? Dahil ako ang nagtanong, at tanga ako sa directions, we got lost. Grabe, umikot kami ng 5 blocks ata! Galit na galit sa Edil, hahaha! Kasi una, nakalimutan ko talaga, natandaan ko lang yung Number 9! Grabe talaga si Aggie, buti na lang naremember ko yung street.
I liked their invite samples, even if they were a bit few. For one, the designs were clean, elegant and simple, cheap pa (a full-colored invite 8×5 is only 20 bucks, black is only 10pesos!). Phoebe was very attentive to the “concept” I had in mind, and presented it in a more economical way, plus, Edil liked what she drafted. She can make thank you cards and gift tags too. So if all goes well…I’d be getting her in all of my paper needs pa c”,).
So, in the long run, it all boils down to price, diba?
Read on…
3-fold invites, full-colored (6×6) - 40 pesos
Clear envelopes - 10 pesos
RSVP/map - 7 pesos
Monogram stickers (2×2) - 5 bucks
I would have a retro-ish theme, with pink and brown dots, stripes and bold letterings on the first fold like the one on top c”,)
Hay salamat, tapos na.
Approval, Mock, and Reproduction na lang c”,)
Plus I saw a pink polka dots die cut box! Kaso sabi ni Phoebe, mahal daw yun and by the thousands! So what Phoebe suggested is she can make stickers na lang for me. I’ll just get the white boxes from RM Boxes, gingham pink ribbons and the pink and brown dots stickers! Yahoo!!
