A Safari Themed Baptism Celebration

Here's my supplier feedback re: my baby's baptism celebration. One thing I forgot though is to assign someone to coordinate during the party kase medyo nangarag ako. I'm so thankful for 'Ate Belle' who helped me with the arrangements.


Church: Shrine of Jesus Parish, near SM MOA
Contact number: 5566175/6; 09189104245

I paid Php2500 for the reservation (inclusive 1 set of godparents) and an additional Php1,800 for the rest of the godparents (Php100 for each godparent).

I decided to hold the baptism on a Sunday since there was no priest available on Saturdays. The church staff will require a copy of the marriage certificate and the birth certificate of the baby. In my case, I submitted only a copy of the birth certificate  and paid the reservation fee since I was still pregnant that time. I submitted a copy of my baby's birth certificate together with the remaining fees a week before the scheduled event.
