Useful Wedding Souvenir: LED Candles

Image
I am not planning to buy our wedding souvenir since we will have a photobooth and candy bars for the kids. But when I saw this deal online, that is when I started planning to buy and have some souvenir for our wedding. Basically, the offer is 29 aed for 3 pcs of candles with battery provided. So it's like $2.6 each or 116 in peso. Isn't cheap? Here are some screenshots of the LED Candle. Got this deal from www.hitthedeals.com available only in the UAE. How I came up on this idea? If you will try to search on google 'Wedding Souvenirs' you will find lots and lots of favors and styles. Most of them are candy boxes, key chains, can opener, candies in the bottle etc. and if you will sum all the materials of this for DIY, it will cost you around $6 to $10 each. I also saw some real candles as a wedding souvenir, I find it not a good idea because once they use it, it will melt and won't last. Ok let me share you some thoughts on those common wedding sou...

My Wedding Couture: Bhong - Dubai-based designer

Sorry for my late post for this part "Who is my Wedding Couture". I was so busy in preparation and to my job these past few months. I was amazed because I've got lots of emails asking who is my wedding couture and the continuation of this topic: http://makeitrealjulius.blogspot.ae/2013/06/choosing-wedding-couture.html When I wrote that topic, I was actually 100% sure to get Ms. Mel Orlina since she gave me the lowest price of 65,000 php considering that her works is really amazing. But since I am trying to squeeze our budget, I decided not to book her yet because I was thinking to rent or buy an inexpensive gown online. In addition to that, my cousin who was a Veluz bride last 2010 suggesting me to use that gown since it still looks fab and new. I actually like that idea coz somehow I will still become a VELUZ bride even it's 2nd hand user na lang. hahaha. My 1st wedding gown design idea. Rate is 65,000 php for Mel Orlina But when the oldies knew about my ...
