wedding abubots

Our wedding is getting nearer and nearer, we're finally going home on Thursday. Actually, I am so stressed this week, I am working even on weekend and holiday (Labor Day) just to compensate the days that I will not be able to work because of the wedding. Last Tuesday, my boss talked to me if I can postpone the wedding for 2 months,, I was shocked and I explained to him that I have limit my days of leave to 8 days because I know that the project I am with is very busy, and really it is too short to celebrate that special event and besides all my relatives and friends who are based in other countries have already bought their tickets for the wedding, all the stuffs are ready and we have already paid for everything. He still asked me to atleast try to talk to Mark and my parents, and that if I postpone the wedding I can take 3 weeks to 1 month leave. I couldn't believe what's happening, but I just prayed and trust everything to God. My husband is very supportive, and he just said if they didn't approve my leave , dito ka na lang sa bahay,,, wahehehe,, (it means mag resign na ako). It's really very hard for me this week because I just started my 7 days diet last Monday and I have to stay late at work, just imagine, the combined emotional stress ( because I dont have time to my wed preps), pressure at work, physically and emotional tireness, GUTOM,,, wahehehe...

Good news is my boss talked to me again yesterday and that my leave was approved already, but he asked for assurance that I will not extend my vacation leave.

I still don't know what we need to do,, bahala na si Batman,, but I know there's a lot of stuffs that will be neglected. I am now at the state like I am just sitting at one corner waiting for my turn.

While I am busy to work, my husband sent an email to me, he emailed his vows but only the first letter of each sentences,, oh my,, meron na sya ako wala pa,,

By the way, here's our wedding abubots, not complete yet,, dami pa kulang ( hahaha!!!) and the countdown in my laptop says "It's 9 days until our special day"

For our Flower Girls

While work is taking most of my time, I am still trying to give some of my time for our wedding preps, thanks to my hubby for patiently waiting for me everytime I have to extend my working hours. Went shopping last friday for our flower girls and female entou, I got emotional when I saw the MOYMOYs for them,, they are still young but I wish that someday they'll find their own Moymoy who will send them to the altar to utter the words I DO.

Hubby got his reward yesterday,,, and it's fulfilling to see him happy!!! love u hon,, mwah! mwah! mwah!

36 Days To Go!!!

At this time, I learned to let go, I am now contented on what we have now, I dont what to stress ourselves for the little things about the wedding. When we were in the Philippines last Holy Week, I remember my father said to not to worry about others reaction, because we can't please everybody, everybody has to say something, we have limited number of guests, I wanted to invite them all but we have to stick on our budget.

I finally met our coordinator Ms. Clarice, hmmm..happiness... she's such a darling, we discussed everything, she is very organize, Mark has nothing to say but all praises to her. She accompanied us to Dangwa to book for Mang Boy Mahusay for the flowers, she really helped us on what kind of flowers to choose, and im so happy because everyone will have a bouquet on our wedding but still the price is within our budget. ( our PS is 16 pairs, FG is 12.. hehehe). I am so happy on getting her as our coordinator.

We met also with Mr. Lorenz Arquero of Serenata Strings, he is very nice also, we discussed about the songs (entou march, bridal march, first dance, father and daughter dance) to be used, and the rest will be his selections.

We also had our prenup, Lindsay Co-Alog made my hair and make up, then we headed to La Mesa Eco Park to meet with Feliz Christine Diestro my prenup coordinator and Jayson and JOanne Arquiza our photographers. We had a great time working with them, we love our pictures, it's like we are not ngarag days before our prenup shoot.

Less than 2 months...

Now that my countdown is down to 2 digits, everything is coming to my senses that it is now less than 2 months until our wedding day. I started visualizing and planning my wedding for more than 1 year, but the actual preparation really took us 7 months (including the wedding day), although I booked most of our suppliers before but I realized that making payments are nothing compared to going in to details of the wedding, like finalizing the principal sponsors and entourage and calling them one by one, selections of menu to serve, guests list and table arrangements, if your friends for example in high school or college are 12 or 11 and they all want to seat together (lol), music to be played at particular event in the reception, programs for the reception, measurements of entourage, etc.

Mark just informed me that his leave was approved and he is now more excited for our trip to Manila on Saturday, weee.. yep, we are going HOME again for the last leg of our wedding preparation. We will finally meet our coordinator for the first time and she offered to accompany us to Dangwa where we will book Mang Boy Mahusay for our flowers. I so heart her, I told her about my budget for flowers and instead of going to a more expensive supplier she suggested Mang Boy and assured me that he never fails her in terms of delivering really good flowers, so I decided why go to expensive one if he can offer the same service and besides my friend Gia who just got married advised me not to spend too much on flowers coz after the wedding it would be nothing.
We will have a prenuptial shoot on March 30 and I am still looking for a venue, I can’t decide if we will pursue it in Tagaytay or we will just find good locations in Manila or QC area. Pictures will be posted here. Yey!!!
