Wedding Date

The first thing we needed was the wedding date. Since I gave birth to Chloe on 11/11/11 I would like a special date as well. When my mom reminded me about 12/13/14 (are priority falls into a perfect Saturday), I immediately panicked and started to look for our Church because I know people would book as early as October for this! We started looking by the 2nd week of October but to my demise, Churches were booked on that day. : (  We wanted to book the wedding to a date that we would have ample time to prepare (and most importantly save!) so we really wanted to have it on the 4th quarter of 2014. 

We looked for Churches and fell in love with one. When we inquired, we found out that the only available date was on November 15th. But a friend of mine already booked their wedding on that date. Fortunately (or fate interfered) a Chinese couple were booked on November 29 But they have not submitted requirements and were given the deadline. If they did not submit within the week, we'll get their spot, and we did! :)

So there you go ..



Save the date, everyone? ;)

Anyway for Makati weddings, you can check them out.

The Church Hunt

The biggest piece of them all, where we say "I Do". Dale and I were both Thomasians. So of course, we wanted to get Married and the UST Church. There was no second thoughts at first, we dropped by as early as September 2013 to book the Church. But admin people told us that they'll start reservations for November 2013 after the semestral break. So we waited.

The Promise

One of the things I'm most excited about if the Wedding Vow. Well I'm not even sure if personal vows are allowed at St. John Bosco, haha! But I'm excited to write one. I was looking at Facebook when I came through this article . It was a blog about revising your own vows you made during your wedding, something more realistic. She said, " Yes, marriage vows are meant to be idyllic and inspiring, to remind us that true love still exists, to bring an entire room to tears. Our wedding day promises are about love and hope and how we'll come from our best, not about housecleaning or self-development or what to do when we feel like murdering each other. Imagine the nervous laughter (or horror) if someone vowed to only hate her husband for short periods of time? None of us can possibly know at the outset what our marriage will bring or what tools we will need. Marriage has challenged almost every assumption I had about myself and my husband. It has asked me to stret...
