Major requirement for our families' location wise was it should be within Metro Manila. One criteria we agreed upon was to look for other venues aside from Hotels/Restaurants. Reasons are: (1) We do not have a date yet (since it's still September, 2014 Chinese calendar normally being released in Oct/Nov timing and surely fewer dates are already not available for those common hotels/restaurants. (2) They are more typical and perhaps more expensive as well.
After 1 week of the formal proposal, we went to Themes & Motifs Bridal Expo. The priority for that day was to look for that perfect venue. Then shortly, one booth caught our eyes. The architecture of the building struck us. So chic and elegant. And the best part, it's NEW! (the rates are still low, and can still haggle prices) :)
Since we do not have a date yet, we are not able to book the place. Also, we wanted to check out other places to keep our options open. But we kept coming back to that place, even visited it at the actual site together with our families.
Finally in end October, 2014 Chinese calendar was already available and we already set a date! We immediately booked the halls for ceremony and reception purposes.
