WHY WE CHOSE IT:
Deciding where to hold our reception is another challenging task for us. Our first option is to have a garden reception in Patio Victoria in Intramuros because it has Old World charm ambiance, cobblestones walkways with antique wooden gate plus old fashioned fountain that makes the place perfect venue for wedding. Patio Victoria has two gardens and air-conditioned banquet hall which can accommodate 150-200 guest, but since all of us know that we have unpredictable weather and July is still a rainy season month, we don't want to risk all our guest to be uncomfortable and being hassle during our wedding day and for this reason booking at Patio Victoria was removed from our list.
Next option is Ibarra's Garden in Padre Faura, Manila. This place is a classic antique house built in the 1920s inspired with American Art Deco and a quaint garden converted into an ideal place for special events like wedding. With four locations all over Metro Manila, Ibarra's Venues are easily accessible and very convenient for guests. Each venue has its own distinct personality that suits your preference. Ibarra's Garden is now air-conditioned meaning even when the rain falls our guest still comfortable and stress-free from being soaked, not only that they offers complete packages, so when we found out that Ibarra's is joining in Bridal Fair at PICC, we decided to book right away.

Hi sis ask ko lang if ok ba ung aircon sa ibarra's garden i mean malakas ba and malamig para di magpaypay ung mga guest. Ok din ba ung reception set up nila? Thanks for the reply medyo konte kasi ngpopost ng review about them so clueless ako sa wedding reception set up.
ReplyDeleteYup, okay naman aircon nila. Then yung reception set-up nila pwede naman nilang ayusin base sa gusto mo eh and theme nyo. Okay rin kausap yung coordinator dun, just look for Angel sya yung nag asikaso samin that time. :)
DeleteThanks for the reply sis! Actually nung nagpunta kami puro mga bago ung andun as in bagets parang mga 21-24 years old lang nag aassist samen nag sipag resign na daw ung mga dating coordinator. Kahit ung coordinator na nag assist sa cousin ko before. Sana makakuha kaming madaming freebies sa bridal fair. Salamat ulit! :)
DeleteIbarra's Garden is one of the best garden wedding venues in Manila, I also recommend this events place. Thanks for sharing your thoughts :)
