Our Wedding

We got our marriage license today! :) We can now literally get married anytime we want. hahahaha :D We're both a little sad now though, that our little busy holiday is over and we're back to work tomorrow (that's aside from Reg being home sick for almost a week last week, haha). We accomplished a lot over the four-day weekend we had - but the to-do list hasn't changed its length. haha :) Guess with a little more than two months left, it's what we should expect. Sigh. :) It's work, but it's "fun work" (what an oxymoron, haha). :)

I had my first fitting last Saturday, 29th of March. Since it's the first fitting, i just fit the lining. :) The picture on the left is the only one I'll post. It features my baby sister, Inna (holding the camera) and her best friend Kat camwhoring and catching my mom in the process. I think it's a cute photo. :) Plus, the only part of me you'll see is the bottom of my gown, which i don't think is all that harmful. After all, the gown is meant to have a skirt right? haha :) So how was the fitting? Exciting! I can't wait for the next one, when the gown will be slightly more complete (I'm not fitting a fully-made gown tho - gotta keep that pamahiin. This is the loophole, haha). Man, I can't exactly put it into words. I just can't. :) Just that I stood there with a big smile on my face. Shet, I can't wait for the 2nd fittng!! haha! Oh, and one more thing - we have three months left!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

So aside from Adora (which I thought merited its own blog entry, haha), we also looked at Make Room and More in Bonifacio High Street and Gourdo's today. Make Room and More in High Street doesn't officially have a bridal registry system up just yet, but they do informally do it (this means you can only find our list in this branch, and not in other branches). So we looked around and found some stuff there too, so it's part of the registry as well. The final list will be available by June. We also signed up for Gourdo's. I think they have Rustan's beat just by this. It's a registry "kit" that they give all couples who sign up. It's super helpful - it contains a booklet with a list of things you might need for your house with a little background on the basics (which is helpful because we don't really quite know what exactly we need and how many, esp when it comes to kitchen needs) and recipes as well. We plan on using the booklet when we go c...

I found this initially in an InStyle Weddings sometime last year in Nail Spa. Looked all over for the magazine (it was out of stock) because i couldn't get the gown out of my head. Reg goes off to get a haircut in F Salon and guess what was the first magazine I saw while sitting there waiting for him? Yup, the InStyle Weddings magazine with the ad. I tried taking pictures of it. Wasn't satisfied so I tore the ad out. haha! everyone at F was very nice about it. :D ANYWAY.. after that hella long intro... THIS is the PEG. I know i've been seeing a lot of gowns and are attracted to a whole load of things about the other gowns, but this is the PEG. this will be the starting point of all designs. so nek... this is the ribbon that mommy was talking about. What you think? :D

We've reserved! so now it's definitely set: July 5, 2008 at 10am at Santuario de San Antonio! :) Why Santuario? I've always loved this church, from the first time I stepped inside it to attend mass. When Reg and I were just talking about marriage, I found out that it wasn't just me who liked this church, but him as well! So it was always set, if we get married, it'd be at Santuario. So Santuario it is. You guys better wake up early. ehehehe. :D

Guess who just got MAJORLY, OH-SO-OFFICIALLY ENGAGED yesterday, Dec 31, 2006 in Bizu???   half crying and half laughing, while he was down on one knee (Rap did not just propose to me, by the way, he asked my whole family. tee-hee.) still crying. i didn't actually say yes, i nodded, because i was so surprised, speechless and touched by the whole thing. i mean, i knew it was planned that we would say something today, but i didn't know he was going to do what he did. :) my sisters were bouncing off their seats, my parents were teary-eyed (my mother cried, of course. haha!) but it was just a generally happy, happy, HAPPY thing. apparently, they all had a feeling na. haha! grabe, my cheeks still hurt from smiling too much. i can't explain how i'm feeling right now. BEYOND PSG, for sure. haha! :) thanks to my sisters, who were pretty quick with their phones - neka with the pictures and inna with the videos. haha! :)   2008 i...
