1. Started drafting the members of the entourage and confirming their acceptance as well.
Initially, we wanted to just have 5 pairs of principal witnesses. However, we find it hard to just take for granted the numerous people who have been great parts of our lives as couple so the count goes to 10 pairs..
There are 3 pairs to carry our wedding symbols, one bestman, five groomsmen, two bridesmaids and seven child attendants.

2. Began searching for the wedding dresses pegs and apparel.
For the female parties:
I always wanted lacy dresses for my girls and a touch of Audrey Hepburn's Casablanca theme and here are my inspirations:
I will try to incorporate these two pegs (the white one above and this black one below) into one little cute royal blue tea-length dress for my bridesmaids. Their pegs is a little conservative to suit their age range.
And this lacy dress below who looks a little mature but demure is for my secondary sponsors..but the dress will be in royal blue color.
This ruffled-lacy dress with flower turban is for our junior flower girl..
For the groom's male parties:
Formal or vintage suit or tux will be the best apparel for the male parties. And these are the inspirations:
And this will be for our male child attendants..
3. Booked the best wedding supplier that will help us create all this clothings we have in mind..and we found a great deal with Ms. Venessa Ocampo of Zentaochi Bridal Shop.
