The Venue - Acropolis Clubhouse

Acropolis Clubhouse:       

       Since we are on a tight budget and just wanted a simple wedding reception, AC is the perfect place for the celebration. 

Why we booked them:

• Affordable
• Ample parking space
• A 20-minute drive from the church (if there would be no traffic)
• The secretary is very accommodating
• Decorating the place won’t be a stress if you have a theme/color scheme in mind since the interior wall and ceiling of AC are in white only.
• Washrooms are clean.

The Church - Santa Clara de Montefalco

Church:

As a couple who are both clueless on wedding preparations, we thought that it would be best to search for the church first.  We first visited Sanctuario De San Jose near Greenhills, San Juan. Adrian liked this because he read somewhere that it is inside a village with a very tight security and that there would be no “usisero” or shall we call them “uzis”.  There are a lot of good qualities about this church and we have read a lot of good feedbacks too. However, it was their 2013 Wedding rate that made us think twice. We found it very expensive and too much for our budget.  

So, we decided to look for another church and Adrian suggested visiting Santa Clara De Montefalco in Pasig. We were so thrilled to see how beautiful the church was. We had a “this is it” moment and planned to go back to fill out their application form.

We came back and completed the application form to block the wedding date. We are very happy to be the first couple to get that date and had the freedom to choose from 10 am to 4pm slot.

The only thing we are still very worried about is if we’ll pass the canonical examination.  I just hope and pray that we will.  We never dreamed of being in a situation wherein we should look for another church months before the wedding after all has been settled and other suppliers have been booked. 

 

Why we loved them?

• Tallest church in the Philippines
• Peso power – for only P10K
• Ms. Fany (contact person) is very accommodating
• Ceremony time slots:  10:00 a.m -12:00 p.m. / 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. / 4:00 – 6:00 p.m.
• Parking is not a problem
• Such a windy place
• Felt like we are in a different country and imagined it was Italy. Though we haven’t been there. Haha!

CONS:

Under their Wedding Requirements:

II. Regulations on Wedding Celebration and Rite

  7. Reservation and Cancellation

  7.2. 50% or P5K is required upon confirmation of booking ONLY after passing the canonical examination, and the full payment is required at least one month before the wedding date or upon completion of all the required documents.

Beautiful!

       I’ve imagined myself waiting to walk down the aisle

             We loved the interior of the church.

We are settled and happy with this kind of simple flower setup.
