It's always nice utilizing a new venue, especially one that's not too fancy, as there is more…read morepotential to execute ideas for events. Different looks and themes can easily suit simple venues, thus making it more versatile and could easily be offered to clients. This is the case with Blue Leaf Filipinas. Conveniently located along Diosdado Macapagal Boulevard, it has several halls that could accommodate more than one thousand guests if all function halls are utilized. There are also smaller function rooms on the second floor and an al fresco area which could also be used. Just recently, our group had organized a social event to celebrate Chinese New Year at Blue Leaf Filipinas. We utilized all three halls and had 800 guests, set-up for dragon dancers, trussing for aerial dancers, plus a grand stage. Despite all this, it was still quite spacious. Considering there were so many people, it remained relatively cold in the venue and despite a good percentage of guests who had a little more alcohol than they could take, the toilets were kept clean and orderly by the maintenance personnel.

I've attended a lot of weddings over the years and aside from the food and celebration of my…read morefriends' eternal vows of love for each other, I always look forward to the venue. For me a venue is integral to the celebration especially since guests will be coming in from different parts of the city and their comfort and accessibility is one of the priorities in my list. The Blue Leaf Filipinas is one of the venues I highly recommend. I've attended a wedding here just last February and I was glad they chose that venue. They have a huge garden for cocktails while guests wait to enter the function rooms or have their pictures taken at the photo booth if available. The function room is big enough without being too crowded and has enough room for a dance floor. The venue also offers ample parking space and a valet service, which is definitely a must for me. If you're willing to shell out some good cash for your wedding or any event, I highly suggest The Blue Leaf Filipinas for this.

My boyfriend's sister's wedding reception was done in Pergola Events Place in Pasay. Situated right…read morein front of the World Trade Center, Pergola was a events space that could house any kind of special gathering. While I wasn't able to check out the place before it was spruced up with pretty flowers and hung paper lanterns, I will say that Pergola is ideal because of the space it has. It has conjoining areas - one is an open area, which I think would be great for kiddie parties also, and the other is a closed, air-conditioned room. The space is pretty big and could house about 150-300 people, if my estimation serves me right. What I really liked about Pergola is their comfort rooms. Sounds kinda weird but I've always been very particular with bathrooms, especially public comfort rooms. Theirs was always well-kept and entering the hall leading towards the bathrooms made me feel like I was in a high-end spa. Another thing I do have to mention is that Pergola has a huge parking lot - perfect for the number of guests who will be bringing their own cars. However, it must be noted that the ground isn't as smooth as a newly asphalted ground. If you're looking for a place to hold your next event at, try checking out Pergola!

A huge wedding. That's what my sister had. She had 500 guests all total and each one of them had to…read morebe well fed, entertained and inebriated. Of course, in order to do these things it had to be set in the right venue. A place with the right lighting (to make people look better than normal) and enough parking spaces and restrooms to accommodate all 500 of them. In the end, it was One Esplanade. My sister calls it the "accessible" choice because of its location. It wasn't hard to find and it was convenient for her Southerner and Northerner guests. I have to admit that I got drunk at my sister's wedding because that's what you're supposed to do when you're the MOH right? But what I remember about this place was that the AC was consistently cool and the entrance to the venue looked so grand, I thought I came to the wrong wedding reception (hehe) Great place for huge events!

A couple of weeks ago, J and I were on our way home but we were still a bit hungry and didn't…read morereally feel like going home yet since it was still early, only 6 pm! Since we had no plans, we decided to just check out Circuit Makati, the new Ayala development on the site of the old Santa Ana Race Track, which was on our route home. I have passed by the Santa Ana racetrack area since it was still a racetrack and have been seeing the progress of the construction on it, but have never really checked it out yet. I know it's been open for a few months already, but I felt like there was nothing there yet. Anyway, this was my chance to finally see it. CIRCUIT MAKATI Parking was free, thankfully. I'm sure once it's fully opened, parking won't be free anymore, so if you're curious to see it, now 's the chance! About half of the establishments are already open, mostly restaurants. Some shops are still closed. It has an open design, which seems to be the "IN" thing in malls now. It reminded me of the Ayala Serin Mall in Tagaytay. A lot of the space is open air - this is great if you are a nature lover; I think you'd be able to bring your pets, like in Serendra. It also saves the mall on air-conditioning costs. On the other hand, it can get hot, humid, and muggy, and on that night, it was drizzling, too. However, I appreciate the abundance of plants and little pocket gardens and oasis-like ponds. Pretty. Circuit Makati is 3-floors high, with 2 long buildings with balcony walkways facing each other. The 2 buildings are connected by several bridges. The little balconies with the orange umbrellas by the water remind me of the ones in The Venetian in Macau. I'm sure it will become a prime spot once Circuit Makati is fully opened. There's a Grab Taxi stand out front, and I saw signs for a free shuttle service to Makati. Somewhere, I can't figure if it's on the side or behind the mall, there's a kart racing place, and beside it, there's another area like a big, big tennis court where many kids were doing sports things. Haha, I can't tell what sport it was and I was too lazy to walk there to check. I am actually looking forward to going back there to hang out at CBTL or Starbucks. Why not? Parking is free, and even on a Saturday, there weren't too many people there. Sometimes you just want to hang out at a place where it's not too crowded, almost secluded, 'ya know? Appreciate it while it's still not filled with people. To me, the picture below looks very inviting, because I'm really just an introvert, truly. However, security still seemed to be a bit lax, maybe because Circuit Makati is still new? I saw a group of more than 10 pre-teen to teenage kids hanging out near one of the pocket gardens, with no visible adult companion around to keep them well-behaved. I don't think a group like this would get past security at other malls. Anyway, it seems safe enough, but best to still be alert and keep to the main areas and avoid the darker areas where a lot of shops are still closed.

It's also where I had my wedding reception in October of 2013. With a guest count of 350 (chalk it up to my dad wanting to invite all his cousins and relatives), Grace and I needed a place to hold all those people without breaking the bank. From the get-go, dealing with Palacio's representatives Cobe and Joy was an extremely pleasant experience. They'd reply to all our questions (even the stupid ones) whether we called them up, texted, or sometimes even messaged them on Facebook. They helped us land the perfect package, an all-in deal that allowed us to just pay them and choose from their suppliers (all reputable, professional ones). Cobe scheduled everything from different sets of food tasting, to the sounds & lights, photo booth, and even extra requests we made just days before the wedding. As part of the package, they even threw in 2 nights at the nearby Manila Hotel, which we enjoyed immensely. Palacio de Maynila wasn't just where we had our reception. They made our reception possible, and that's no movie cliché.

Perfect spot for a chill celebration without feeling overcrowded. Left happy, full, and already planning the next visit. Highly recommend, 5 stars no question!

Once we were dropped off we had to take an elevator to the 3rd floor to check in. The host stationed near the elevator and check-in line was friendly. I chatted with him for a little bit and he answered my questions. The front desk staff were kind too. It seemed like a pretty popular hotel with international travelers. While I waited in line I overheard different languages while they walked by. The room was spacious and clean. We had a nice view of Manila Bay and the promenade. The bathroom had a rainfall shower and they offered the usual toiletries on the sink counter. The view was pretty at night as the seaside promenade was lit up. The room service Halo-Halo was good. It was a pretty big portion size so my fam and I were able to share it. It was a nice treat after a busy day. The room was pretty quiet. If we had neighbors we didn't hear them. The pool area was nicely designed and beautifully landscaped. The staff working there were friendly. I liked that there was artwork spread throughout the resort so there was always something interesting to look at. The different artwork stopped me in my tracks a couple of times. We dined at one of their restaurants, Brasserie on 3, and we showed up for their breakfast buffet. I still think Medley Buffet at Okada is better in food and service but Brasserie was still pretty good. The hotel has a pretty large layout so it can take some time to get to the Mall of Asia but it was still very convenient. I liked that this property is connected to the mall via a pedestrian bridge. It was definitely one of the better hotels I stayed at while on vacation. I would stay here again.

My friends have celebrated many a birthdays here, with a group of five, fifteen, twenty, and even a hundred! Indeed, that they have many different-sized rooms to cater to your needs is one of Centerstage's biggest draws. Another is its affordable packages. For around Php 2,500 to Php 3,500, you can already get drinks, food, and three hours of videoke in your own KTV room for five to 15 pax. Not bad! You may also avail of hourly rates for the KTV rooms if you prefer to choose your own drinks and food from their extensive menu. Hosting a party? Their Sala can fit up to 100 pax. Package starts at Php 35,000, inclusive of food, drinks, and videoke time. For the serious/aspiring videoke stars, Centerstage's playlist is extensive and updated! Their microphones are regularly cleaned and have sanitary covers that are changed per visitors. Rooms are also clean, though some may have lingering smells of food ordered by previous visitors. Some rooms are cold, some not too much. Their waiters are accommodating, though, so I'm sure you can work with them re: temperature adjustment. An important word of advice: Centerstage can get packed, especially during Friday and weekend nights, so best to reserve via telephone before you come. We made the mistake of forgetting to do this the last time we visited, and we ended up fifth on the waiting list. We had to wait for over an hour--went out to dinner first--before we finally got a room. By then, we were already a bit sleepy. But we still ended up staying over three hours! Our voices were hoarse and our throats itchy when we got home, but we had a blast!
