Weddings won’t be complete without flowers and decorations for both the ceremony and reception. They are one of the things that make the event — stunning and luscious to the eyes. Looking at gorgeous bridal bouquets and beautifully arranged ceremonial aisle where the bride will walk to meet her groom and inspiring well-decorated venues for the party afterward is one of the things that soon-to-wed-couples give a good amount of consideration lately. With the trend of theme weddings, couples are more than happy to search for the best of the best in Manila’s wedding industry. Unfortunately, event styling has become too pricey due to the recent demand and glamour that it adds to weddings. For those who are on a tight budget like us — this could probably be a dream to get unless a miracle would happen! 🙂
Below is a list of reliable and in-demand florists and event stylists in the country that we have come into contact with and their initial price range for a Manila-based December 2016 wedding.
UPDATED SOME “STARTING or RANGE” RATES AS OF 2019
Their rates, however, varies depending on your wedding date, number of guests, size of venue, flowers (local, imported or mixed) and decors to be used, if reception only or with ceremony or with bridal bouquet/entourage flowers, OOT fees (if applicable), corkages (if not accredited by the venue and caterer), number of crew meals and reputation (mid-range or high end supplier). It is highly advisable to contact them directly for your specific event quotation.

Hi abi. Its great to know that this blog has helped other fellow bride to be like me. Thanks for the nice words. Happy preps also and congrats on your engagement! Will post our updates soon. 🙂
Thank you for your blog it’s very detailed and very informative.
Hi Girlie. Thanks.
Hello!
We have just met with Gideon. His starting now is 75k ceremony, and 450k minimum in receptions. Has anybody worked with Mr. Gary Dacanay (of Mindworks Productions)?
Thank you very much!
Hi Pink. Thanks for the update. Gary Dacanay is our event stylist.
Hi dear!
Thank you for your detailed blog. I just want to know how is Mr. Gary Dacanay? Is he nice and affordable?
Hi Jabz. You’re welcome. His rate is up on the post. We will be posting our detailed review about him later.
Hello, may i know the contact number or email you used in order to message Badang Rueda?
Thank you!
Hi Benjamin. I used this before badangrueda@gmail.com
Hi Aiki,
You have such a great blog/ website! Extremely helpful!!
For the florist, may I know if you had a chance to liaise or inquire with Nikki Chato before?
Hi Pam. You’re welcome. 🙂 I did inquire but I wasn’t able to get hold of her rates.
Oh no! I was so keen to book Gary Dacanay as our florist since from the north narin sya and i saw great works from his past client venue din ng kasal nmin.
Hi FAL. Sorry but we DO NOT RECOMMEND Gary Dacanay after what he did to us. You can read it here: https://ourbudgetdreamwedding.com/2017/03/07/wedding-supplier-review-gary-dacanay-event-stylist/ and https://ourbudgetdreamwedding.com/2017/08/11/my-ex-and-whys/
Book at your own risk.
Omg thank you for your blog! Im thinking of getting Amante Fleurs. I would appreciate it if you will update me if you hear any horror stories about them. Thanks!!!
Hi Pinkie. Thanks! I’ve only heard minor issues about them but mostly good reviews. You can also try to google for other blogs that have reviews on Amante Fleurs or better yet I highly advise for you to join WAW. The link is on our sidebar. Click the logo with our names that says WAW.
You’re welcome by the way. Happy preps!
This one needs to be updated a little; Sir Gideon’s starting rate ranges from PhP500-700k which doesn’t include the trusses, lights and sounds, led wall, and dance floor. hehehe
Hi certifiedfighter. Thanks for the update. But for how much is this rate for? Also is this for Manila based and reception only? Gideon’s initial rate that I have is for a 150pax Manila based reception only.
Hi. How much is the rate of Gideon Hermosa for 100pax?
Hi twister21. We only have rates on the list as per our initial inquiry for 150pax for a December event based in Manila. It’s advisable to directly contact him since rates would vary depending on what you want.
Hi where and how we can contact Gideon Hermosa? Thanks!
Hi Merle. We emailed him at the_events_studio@hotmail.com But better check his website for any updated contact info.
Ok thank you for your quick reply. Regards!
Hi!
I found it very hard to reach these event stylists and they usually do not answer your calls, emails or messages. Anyone else having any luck? is this rather normal?
I was able to get in touch with Gideon Hermosa through his assistant Wesley using his email (the_events_studio@hotmail.com) and it seems like they only ever reply around 1am. After a few emails, its a 50k DP to reserve Gideon for the date by depositing the money to one of his bank accounts and thats about it. Is this usually how it goes?
Thanks!
Hi Derrick. Yes its a common thing so don’t be frustrated. If you really want to get Gideon for example, you need to book them first unless they’re willing to setup an appointment with you. Also, if you want to meet with them it is highly advisable to go to the bridal fairs that they participate with after contacting them so you would know personally if you’d clicl or not. Another option is to get a good wedding coordinator who has a close connection with your chosen event stylist.
Hi Aiki! Your blog is super useful especially for overseas couple like us. I have booked La Castellana and San Agustin Church as well 🙂 Also, with La Cas, included na ba yung trusses and chandeliers nila? I booked the full drapes so mas okay sana kung puno sya ng trusses kaso ang expensive ng mga rates 😦
Hi Jeddy you’re welcome! 😊 Did you get a full package with La Castellana or separate suppliers? I’m not sure about the full drapes if it’s included in the package, better ask Mr. Christian or Ms. Bianca to be sure because although it’s an in-house supplier, the owner is different.
Also, the trusses are definitely not included, because usually it is provided by the separate Event Stylist and it is still as per approval of La Castellana if ever you’ll want to have one.
Thanks for this blog. I really need this one because next month is the wedding of my sister and we need one that can help us to organize the styles and arrangements on that day.
Hi Joan. We’re happy you found the contents of our blog post helpful to your sister’s wedding planning need. If you have any other questions, feel free to comment. Happy preps to your sister and congratulations! 😊
Thank you for revealing. Reading your article on wedding florist and event styling was enjoyable. I’m going to bookmark this article.
Hi Best Florist Sydney,
Thank you for your comment. Have a great day!
Garry and Aiki
