We Are Family

Tomorrow, we will go full blast on our preps.

Destination:

(1) Divi - We will go to Divi to scout for gown makers, luminaries, cloth, and souvenirs.

Gown Makers >> We were able to get 3 names from W@w.
a. Leonie Bautista - H14 Cluster Building 1, 2F Tutuban Shopping Center

Clarice, Apols, and Didith refer her. Clarice paid 5,500 for her gown and Apols had hers at 8k.
I sent her an SMS message and I was surprised to receive a call. She told me that she wouldn’t be on her shop tomorrow so we agreed to meet on Monday at 10 am. She seems easy to talk to and very accommodating.

b. Angelita Chua >> Traders Shopping Center, Pasilio A, Stall # 107-108, Ilaya St.

Katrina Edejer refers her. I called and was able to speak to ate Liza. She seems nice so we set up an appointment with her tom.

Luminaries >> Jenn told me that she was able to buy hers along Tabora St.; the shop was near those selling kitchen utensils and glasswares. She bought the whole box (72 pcs) for 600 pesos. This is approx 4-5 each.

Cloth >> This is for our sponsor’s gift (not really a priority, we can come back later if we couldn’t squeeze it in)

Souvenirs >> I heard there are a lot of these in Ilaya st. We might canvass for lights as well.

b. 3J Charmy Jewelry - Along Ongpin St. infront of Metro Bank.
Recommended by Irene Palma, Addie Torres. They said that they were able to get a big discount. This shop opens late so it is advisable to go there after 10 am then eat at President’s restaurant after.
