Rant: Bridal Car

Guestbook Bonding

When we were in the early stages of our wedding planning, I wanted a unique guestbook for the wedding (show me someone who doesn't. Haha) I may have done a couple of DIY projects but the guestbook is somewhat on the bottom of my list. And as you know, DIY-ing is not always budget friendly and cost-efficient so I had to say bye-bye to wedding trees, bird cages as card boxes, etcetera.

I let PJ handle this one since he's always on the lookout for deals in the internet. He used to make photo books for me as pasalubong a few times when he was in the US. So when he told me that there is a deal for a coffee table book for Php995.00, the guestbook medium has been decided.

Licensed to Wed

We got our Marriage License today and all I can say is, "Eto na yun?! Seryoso?"

I thought that the hand-written form will be transferred to a new form with the information type-written already. Talk about expectations... Haha

Nest Hunting

After the wedding, PJ and I decided that we rent first a condo unit/apartment. We have a small patch of land in the south. Until we magically grow 1.5 million in our bank accounts (the minimum value you need to spend building your home in our chosen village), our dream house remains only in dreams. Haha. Living in the far south is not a practical decision since we both work in the major business districts, PJ at the Fort and I in Makati. So think about the gasoline and toll fees!

Suit Up!

Last October, we bought suits for both our fathers and PJ's brothers because we took advantage of the Onesimus' sale. Even before that, I keep on bugging him about his suit. Sometimes, I feel a bit sad because it seems like he doesn't care that much about what he will wear on the big day.. considering it's a one time, special event for both of us.. and that I was expecting the same excitement from him like what I feel for my bridal gown.

Gone is the sad feeling when we visited Kingsmen sometime October, just not sure if it was before or after his birthday. Because according to the sales person, the suit will be finished in 10 days so there is no rush for my groom-to-be to have his suit made. Okaaaaaay...

That's my groom-to-be having his measurement taken. :)

Engagement Session

I must admit, I super enjoyed the engagement shoot. Weeks before that, I felt nervous because I thought we cannot do the poses that J and Aira will let us do but whoa... Even PJ is so game with everything. Aylavvettt!!!

what's on my desk

Just had our engagement session yesterday... I am still tired but super happy (as in Cloud9 happy) and in so much awe. Getting J Lucas Reyes is one of the best decisions we've ever made. Ever!!!
