oo naman!

actually nakakatawa *** sa amin..namanhikan *** fiance ko ng mag isa....(feb. 2006 though he asked me march of 2005 pa)LMAO..ang result, napagalitan pa sya ng parents nya. kasi di daw sila isinama. (nsa U.S na sya ulet *****)

tapos this May lang nakapunta mga future in-laws ko sa haws namin..everything went fantastic..instant bonding sa mga mag balae. we prepared some pika-pika lang since from what i know, side ng lalake dapat magdala ng food.

maganda pa rin na namamanhikan.formality sake.... (,")

[dmartian28]

masayang nakakataranta..mixed emotions.. lalo na kung once or twice palang nagmit yung in-laws mo and parents mo.. kasi d mo alam if magkakasundo *** e

um can somebody go over the steps. of "pamamahikan"
what to bring what to do. how to act?

[ninjathet0312]

pamamanhikan should not choreographed naman..as in may steps pa...go with the flow lang...

when i had mine (my fiance is in US and naka webcam lang sya), my future in-laws brought a lot of food. we just prepared dessert,cakes and beverages....di kami ganun kadami unlike dun sa iba na halos isang barangay. one is because our pamamnhikan feel on a weekday (my bro is working and my future Sis in law is taking up her med proper summer class).. i was expecting that parents would exchange ideas on how to deal with the wedding preps (eto ksi *** madalas na nangyayari sa pamamanhikan) but it turned out a "tsismisan" session.... hehehehe..ok lang. since i really wanted to do all the preps by my self..ayoko din ng may nakikialam sa mga **** ko...

anyhow, since my fiance is not here, we are going to hold a dinner researsal once he gets home.. (,") hope this helps!

Samin di formal.

1. Tinanong ako ng groom ko kung ano daw preferred namin dalhin nila na food. Sabi namin kahit ano lang na gusto nila.
2. Pagdating nila sa bahay, kainan. Tapos kaming mga "bata", naglaro ng billiards. Yung "oldies" naginuman/videoke.

First time nila nameet ang isa't isa ha.
Maybe para mawala yung kaba/tension, wag masyadong gawing formal. Ang impt lang naman is magkakilala sila b4 d wedding itself. Di naman para pilitin na maging instant close sila sa isa't isa

[ilykne2]

parang nakakakaba nmn pag namamanhikan.iniisp ko pa lang kabado na ako.pano pa kaya sa bf ko our dilemma is, and i think this is true for most couples, if our parents have a fine talk during that event.it'll be their first time na magkita kasi.although, they'd probably seen each other nung graduation namin e kaso we're together then.funny is in one of my grad pix with my parents, nsa background yung parents ng bf ko.*** *** i just thought that it was a wonderful coincidence.

[aiden]

pamamanhikan is just introducing each other's families. sa amin, ganoon din nagdala ang future in laws ng food pero sa bahay nagluto kami ni h2b. kainan lang tapos inuman ng mga lalaki. chikahan sessions. etc.

When we had our pamamanhikan, my SO and I made sure all the details about the wedding were already arranged and ready.

So yung pamamanhikan naminn became light and comfy kasi there's not much to talk about na. Yung pamamanhikan ng sister ko two years ago medyo naging tensyonado dahil may tendency ang parehong partido na magpilit ng mga bagay na gusto nila. My SO and I never gave them that chance.

[aroro]

sigurado dun sa mga parents na magmi-meet for the first time or twice medyo may konting pakiramdaman pa na later-on for sure e mawawala din naman. pero kung sa tulad ko naman na magkakilala na ang mga parents namin eversince medyo sunod sa galaw na,ha ha...sabi nga namin sila na bahal sa loob na lang kami ng room,jokes,hehe...(ikakasal na din ako nextyear, Congrats sa'min ha ha)

[aileenapolo]

I've been through several pamamanhikans and will be going through it soon, here are the steps:

- Introduction of parties (if they haven’t met before)
- Formal offer by groom’s father to bride’s father
- Acceptance of bride’s father to the offer
- Discussion on wedding arrangements (budget, where and when)
- Discussion on the after-wedding arrangements

yes in fact yung soon to be husband kong chinoy namanhikan few months ago. gosh hindi actually sumagi sa isip ko yon sya lang talaga ang nagsabi na mamamanhikan sila at sya pa nagexplain sa akin kung anong mga gagawin sa pamamanhikan

[green_apples]

When the time comes, I would want my boyfriend to do the whole engagement thing. It's a tradition.

[i'm_clods]

haaay, mamamanhikan parents ng bf ko sa sunday. ang catch, matagal na kami live-in at 7 years old na anak namin. pero bakit kinakabahan pa rin ako?haha.

[Gob2010]

More on formality nalang especially today na modern na ang mga couples. Unlike before na parents ang gumagastos so sila yung nagdedecide. Ngayon kase yung mga couples na ang gumagastos so they get to decide. Yung pamamanhikan eh more on following tradition lang. It's fun, don't worry.

hi. ask ko lang sana, ilang months before the wedding ginagawa yung pamamanhikan? thanks,

[sjdik]

peeps question lang po... ok lang ba gawin ang so called pamamanhikan sa isang restaurant (fine dining) since ang ginagawa lang naman dito ay pag introduce sa mga parents...hindi ko kasi mabyahe mga parents ko sa probinsya..matatanda na kasi sila...so my fiance and i were thinking to meet halfway.. thanks...

In my family, Pamamanhikan is more than a time-honored tradition. It's a way of showing respect to our elders, and a gesture of appreciation - how our family helped me prepare for a life-long vocation called marriage. =)

I'm already in my mid-30s. My fiance and I are already capable of organizing/spending for our wedding, much more - starting family. My fiance, knowing how my family values 'Pamamanhikan', went thought the whole 'ordeal' last December.
