Supplier Rating: Boy Kastner Santos


I had a hard time looking for options for an entourage gowns supplier because we are based in Cavite.  We narrowed our choices because it would be a logistical nightmare if we have to ask our families to go to some distant designer to have their gowns made.  Our requirements were he should make gowns that were of good quality, relatively near or convenient for us and gave us a good price for the gowns and suits since we were paying for our family’s clothes.  We scouted around Cavite but we did not really click with any of them.  We almost considered booking someone from Manila but thank God for Sis Rachelle who recommended Boy.

Tito Boy is a major w@w find.  We had trial run with him by asking him to make an entourage gown for me and a suit for M and we found that his work was good, he delivered on time and as a bonus he is great fun to be with! :D
As we all know Tito Boy’s sense of humor and larger than life personality is legendary. :D  Not a single visit goes by that we don’t stay there for at least an hour because of all the chika and eating that we do! Our ninangs had their gown made with him too along with some of our lolas and aunts.  And what I love about them and what made them really sulit is the extra service that goes with what they do, they went to three houses to take measurements and three houses to do fittings.

He was able to go along with what I had in mind different colored gowns with different designs but when you put them together, they look really good.  He explained "papered" (actually tapered) pants to the entourage and what does a good fitting suit look like when they suit up.  He took the time to deal with our Lolas and aunts who wanted multiple changes in their gowns.  He also made my prep dress for me. :)

In the process of working with him, Tito Boy became my friend.  Any bride would be lucky to have him by her side, he will not only make great gowns but will be your biggest supporter when wedding preps are making you crazy and stressed.  I am not surprised to see that his 2012 calendar is slowly getting booked and yet he still remains humble and candid as ever.  :D

We are so lucky because he made our families beautiful and sharp on our special day! :)
