Here are a few random posts of mine on wedding preps, praises, complaints and everything under the sun.. :) Please feel free to leave your comments.
After my last blog.. I got sick.. Yun na pala yung reason ng pagkahilo ko although it was weird. I had been feeling dizzy for about two weeks before I got the fever. Maybe my body was trying to tell me something. I just wasn't listening. Anyway, after resting for a few days.. while my fever went up and down, I finally recovered. Again, a lot has happened since then. We had our food tasting with Makati Skyline (while I was sick) and we were satisfied. We brought along Kuya Jim (as usual) so...
Hayy... I'm getting really stressed out and tired because of all the wedding preps... every weekend is jam-packed with one errand after another pero I know I'm not the only one feeling this way. Pero medyo I'm really exhausted lately. Lagi ako nahihilo.. I hope its only my eyes.. and nothing serious =( First.. more updates: We've had our invitations made na by Cardprints last week and we're expecting it to be ready by October 29.
We have our marriage license...
I haven't been able to update the blog much because were really quite busy nowadays... In the past month or so.. we have been able to accomplish the following.. We've already booked our bridal car c/o Bridal 01. We saw them at the wedding expo and got a the bridal car/groom's car package. These are both bugeye type Benz cars. We were able to attend a demo session by TSG (The Sentimental Groove) at Marlene Marcelo's shop in Kamagong.. there were good although di naman ako super impressed.....
We took our vacation leave last August 26 in order to have our canonical interview at the Manila Cathedral. The experience was better than expected particularly because of the priest (Msr. Arsenio Bautista) who was such a joy to talk to. It's too bad he won't be the one celebrating the wedding ceremony for us :( Still.. we had a memorable experience.. We also paid in full already for the church as well as submitted our other requirements. There is some hope that Espie won't need to be...
During the past few weeks, I was busy trying to sort out our requirements for the wedding. We're still having some trouble with Espie's documents kasi nga he was baptized in an Aglipay Catholic church and it will be treated as a mixed marriage eventhough he is a practicing Roman Catholic. While we're still trying to sort that out, I already made sure my documents are ready.. I already have my baptismal and confirmation certificate (for marriage purposes) ready. My mom helped me get the...
It's now less than five months and counting... I'm really starting to get panic attacks thinking about all the things that we still have to do.. although we've managed to complete about 95% of the supplier bookings..we have yet to get into the knitty gritty of the wedding preparations.. I've started preparing the documents needed such as the baptismal and confirmation certificate.. we've already rescheduled our canonical interview and pre-cana seminar a couple of times.. same with the...
It seems all that real when you see it in print.. I finally got our Papal Blessing today. Met with our very generous w@w sister Gen (great name!) at Sm Southmall. About a month ago, she made a post on W@W volunteering to have papal blessings made in Rome for interested couples since she was based there. We weren't really thinking of having it made because it had to be sent all the way from Rome and we weren't too keen on sending over money. Still.. the opportunity was there so we grabbed...
We got our gold W@W unity coins yesterday =). One of my w@w sisters (Abby) was selling hers because she had decided to get the two-tone coins instead. I, on the other hand, was just about ready to make the deposit to Ms. Benz's account. It was really great timing. I met with her and her hubby at Glorietta while I was with Espie. It was nice to finally meet one of the w@wies =) Next up will be the Papal Blessing that I requested from sis Gen who was kind enough to have papal...
I've decided.. I'm getting Reggie Gaba to do the whole entourage plus my bridal gown.. I met up with him again today kasama yung mom ko and it went well. No downpayment made yet.. we'll meet again sa Thursday so I can see the different swatches and we can do the contract signing. He also designed the gown for my mom and she was happy with it. My mom isn't so easy to please pagdating sa mga damit (she knows what she wants!) kaya this is quite a relief. The top reasons why I chose him over the...
We've scheduled our Canonical Interview and Pre-Cana Seminar at the Manila Cathedral on August 13 and 16 respectively. Grabe totoo na talaga to.. just six months to go and we will be husband and wife. I'm excited and in a way, I'm also nervous. Syempre kahit gano kayo katagal together, iba pa rin pag mag-asawa na. I hope the wedding will be beautiful, but I pray more that the union will be blessed. Yun naman ang importante diba? Hay naku, kelangan pa nga nya magpabinyag ulit kasi he was...
