“We're all guilty of posting #latepost and #aboutlastnight on IG or Facebook. So I guess it's okay to post #lateyelpreviews too lol. Second time to Bloom by Weddings & Things, first time was back in 2019 when my Mom flew down for the day to pick out her Maria Clara for my sister's wedding. If you're not familiar with what that is, it's basically a formal women's long dress that is worn at special occasions or events. That day I also purchased a Barong Tagalog for myself as I also walked my sister down the aisle representing my late father. A Barong Tagalog is a men's formal shirt, majority in beige color, but also comes in other solid or ombre colors. This past weekend, I had to go in to purchase another Barong for my grandfather's funeral. He will be wearing it in his casket at his upcoming memorial service. Via is the shopkeeper who runs Bloom and I met her 2 years ago, she is lovely and extra personable, efficient with what she does. Her shop didnt have many to choose from as she she's been busy with other orders for funerals, and her next large shipment isnt until end of May. I was happy to know that the perfect shirt was on hand, in the perfect size. As much as I'd love to go back to The Philippines to and have an abundant selection of Barong to choose from, a last minute roundtrip ticket with 2 weeks worth of quarantine is not ideal during this time hehe. FYI Bloom by Weddings & Things also provides floral arrangements for special occasions too.”
