#JMagWillWorkforFree: Going Back to Basics

/in /by

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Last January, Jason Magbanua, award-winning and sought-after videographer, came to WeddingsAtWork with an awesome idea he named Will Work for Free. He initially offered this service anonymously to the WaWies simply because the community was very close to his heart.

The premise was simple. Having acquired a new piece of equipment, he wanted to go back to his roots and shoot alone. Likewise, it was a creative exercise as well as a practical way for him to train for his upcoming shoots in Europe.

To enter, couples had to simply send him the details of their wedding, including the venue and list of suppliers, and take care of transportation costs, meals and music licensing. It was, therefore, not a surprise that 7000 entries were accumulated at the end of the promo after it was publicly posted and was picked up all over the social media.

Due to a strict schedule of availability though, Jason could only choose a handful of winners and the first lucky one was Stacy Munar, who was then set to marry Niel Riddle. Stacy’s email caught Jason’s attention and lucky for her, he was available on the date of the wedding.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”https://weddingsatwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/JMagWillWorkforFree1-e1463202073647.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Last May 5, 2016, Stacy and Niel’s wedding finally took place at San Antonio de Padua with a reception at Summit Ridge Tagaytay. According to Jason, it was definitely a learning experience for him. Although his partner, Madge (Lejano), accompanied him, he learned it was tremendously hard to shoot alone now.

Jason said, “After years of having your crew around you.  Driving you. Carrying stuff for you.  Setting up everything for you.  Getting water for you.  Packing up for you. Then you’re by yourself. The physical strain was immense. Plus, the mental strain of coming up with something beautiful and meaningful.”[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”https://weddingsatwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/JMagWillWorkforFree2.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]”I learned to bring only the essentials. To plan ahead. To pack light. In recent memory, I’m terribly isolated and misinterpreted as aloof on the wedding day. I’m totally gregarious on the meetings.  I’m the best friend. But on a regular shoot, I’m super quiet and tucked in a corner. Listening. Thinking. Planning. Last Thursday, I was front and center. Talking to the bride, the entourage, making them feel comfortable. Totally out of my comfort zone.”

Now what everyone wants to know is, will there be any more winners and when will they be announced? After how tired Jason was at this wedding, we’re just going to have to wait and see if he’s going to pick another one. Haha![/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]

Looking for the Perfect Wedding Venue and Caterer? Hop On and Join The Wedding Tour!

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Wedding planning is always exciting for any engaged couple. However, we all know how much of a challenge it can be given that there’s so many things to decide on. Two of the most difficult choices usually involve reception venues and caterers. Luckily, The Wedding Library has come up with a new concept that will help couples with these major decisions.

The Wedding Library has been assisting couples with all their wedding needs for the past 20 years starting with their all-in-one wedding shop. The shop has always provided unique and innovative offerings to answer untapped needs of engaged couples, including a unique bridal shower or honeymoon line and the first Bridal Fair to offer a major on-the-spot booking Cash Raffle Promo.

This year, The Wedding Library asked some brides for ideas on any needs in the wedding industry that have yet to be met and two of the most predominant answers were wedding planning seminars and ocular visits to reception venues. Voila! The Wedding Tour was born.
[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”https://weddingsatwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/WeddingTour1.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]The Wedding Tour is a fun, convenient, educational, time saving, and cost efficient way to scout for the right venue for your reception. Also available to debutantes, the tour likewise gives couples an opportunity to network with other about-to-be-wed couples and get tips from long time wedding suppliers, all in one fun-filled, enriching, and worthwhile day. The Wedding Tour promises to be:

Fun: Couples get to mingle with each other, play games, share tips, talk about common experiences and issues and more while en route to the venues.
Convenient: Couples do not need to sweat driving through traffic and worrying about parking.
Educational: A newlywed speaker and a wedding supplier will share tips to the couples/debutantes en route to the venues.
Time Saving: There will be 3-5 venues featured in one day. As this will be a scheduled group visit, the venues will be ready to present to The Wedding Tour participants.
Cost Efficient: The tour price is a fraction of what will normally be spent on gas, parking, and lunch to visit all 3-5 venues.

As if that’s not enough, some of the venues will also be giving discounts or freebies to The Wedding Tour participants. More freebies and games en route to the venues also await participants. Couples can enjoy all of these for a tour price of only Php 750 per person, maximum of 2 persons per wedding/debut per tour.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_image type=”none” src=”https://weddingsatwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/WeddingTour3.jpg” alt=”” link=”false” href=”#” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Couples can also choose among different types of tours depending on the budget they are allocating for the venue and caterer. There are six different tours to choose from:

1) The Wedding Tour Standard Series (venue packages below Php 100,000)
2) The Wedding Tour De Luxe Series (venue packages between Php 100,000-150,000)

Initial tours will be scheduled in June based on responses from interested couples. There are currently initial tours being planned for Tagaytay, Quezon City, Rizal, and Metro Manila.

Interested couples can start by answering this questionnaire: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/S5NQP8P. The Wedding Library will then correctly match the slots of The Wedding Tour itineraries based on the couple’s needs and preferences. Couples who completely answer the questionnaire will also get a chance to win FREE or discounted slots for the initial runs.

WaW Undercover: Life of a Wedding Coordinator

Backtrack – Whenever we get together and they share wedding behind-the-scene stories, I would always jest that I wanna join and see what goes on. Since I could easily be a nuisance, Thoffy picked a wedding where I know most of the suppliers involved. This way, he can throw me to any of them when his team gets busy.

After a few tries, we finally got a date when I was free and the location was convenient.

Yes, we asked permission from the couple, but I was just lucky they said yes as I am pretty sure they had no idea what they are agreeing to.

The day came and I wanted to do a real time update for the feel. I wasnt able to really plan it and just called it #wawundercover which I know is not really an apt name.

Maybe you can suggest a better name?

Let me share with you how it was for me via a photoblog.

Thoffy’s Coord Team arrives at prep 8 hours before the wedding. Make-up team was there and starting already. So much earlier pa sila. The wedding was with Muriel Vega Perez.

*Note: 8 hours is not the standard, may coord na comfy at 6 hours, may iba na 5 hours. It is not the number hours but the comfort zone of each team; being early but inefficient is useless.

Most of the time its meant for sustenance than as an enjoyable treat.

Coord struggle to bring in food, no joke yan. Couples want to feed suppliers well but any amount x the number of people needed to be fed is no joke din.

Suppliers finding a place to eat is also no joke if room is small, lucky if they find a table like in this case; sometimes it is balanced on the lap, sometimes it is awkwardly done with family members around, sometimes it is even done in hotel’s parking lot or in the car on the way to church! But that is if may food.

If food is not provided, that is altogether a bigger problem.

So far I have been here for 4 hours na and we are just at the preps. Work hours are no joke.
