Dream Team
The wedding preparation is a long and tiring process. There is a hundred and one out there who promises to give us our dream wedding. After a LOT of research, ocular inspections and negotiations, we have carefully chosen the crème of the crop! They will be our partners in achieving our dream. We fully trust that they will deliver their best come wedding day! ;)
Chapel: TRANSFIGURATION OF JESUS (CALERUEGA)
Reception Venue: VILLE SOMMET
After much discussions and deliberations, headaches and heartaches (http://crazybeautiful-japloel.blogspot.com/2007/09/picc-bridal-fair-day2.html), we have decided to finally book Ville Sommet! We instantly fell in love with this place the minute we opened its wooden gate. But beauty comes with a price. So we searched and scouted for alternative venues yet nothing comes close to the elegance of its Glasshouse and the relaxing ambiance of the sprawling garden of Ville Sommet. We also considered the convenience of our family and friends. We understand that you will travel all the way to Tagaytay to celebrate with us and we don't want to add more trouble by choosing a far-flung reception venue. Coming from Caleruega, Ville Sommet is a good 20-minute drive. We're sure you will enjoy the place! :)

No, he is not a relative of the bride but how i wish he is! I first met Farley when i became part of Rencie's wedding entourage way back in 2002. (Rencie is a college buddy of the bride). The gowns Farley made for us are in perfect fit. No adjustments needed at all! The only downside was his shop was located in the flood-stricken Malabon, hehe.. When it was my turn to prepare for our wedding, i discovered that the W@wie community has great reviews on Farley's creation. Hmmm, sikat na pala si Farley. So, together with my Mom, we braved to travel all the way to Malabon and brought some fabric with us to sample Farley's creation. I just wanna make sure he still has it and another excuse to have new clothes! hehe.. And just today (10.21.07), i got my chiffon grecian-style gown & yellow vintage-inspired dress delivered by Farley to our house. Yey! can't wait to wear them! (won't post pix muna, sa prenup shots na para surprise ;p)
To our entourage members, promise you'll love your Farley gowns too! =)
To fellow w@wies, go get Farley na..Pero after our wedding na ha? Baka ma-toxic sya.. hehe.. He is super bait & the price is reasonable :)
