Supplier’s Review: The Pergola

07.31.2011 by Leah //

Next to the Church, the reception venue is the more challenging and therefore more stressful item on a bride-and-groom's wedding list. I believe we actually spent more time looking for a venue than for the rest of our wedding suppliers. A lot of factors came into play during the decision-making process - like the location, size and amenities it offers. We initially ... READ MORE

Sad and worried…

07.23.2011 by Leah //

Should I worry about not having received any wedding pictures from my other photographers?   Although Nat has already promised to send the raw pictures by post, I haven't received any from Von Lazaro yet, our back-up photographer.  I am expecting more from him since he was the only one paid for his services.   The rest took our photos pro bono, as a ...

A Grand Sale of Post-Wedding Items

Last Saturday I went through our post-wedding stuff to see how I can organize and store them in the storage boxes we just bought.

Our Church: St. John Bosco Parish

06.23.2011 by Leah //

My younger brother got married at St. John Bosco Parish in Makati City last April 2009.   His was a solemn wedding and the church was really nice so I told AJ  that I want us to get married in that church too.  And oh, I just can't forget their altar: it was structurally impressive and really lights me up. Fast forward to 2010, the first wedding detail we booked was the ... READ MORE

Our Wedding’s Main Attraction: The Photo Wall!

06.15.2011 by Leah //

I've been bragging about our photo wall as early as March 2011 hehe.    This thing is the one I'm excited about, next to my gown.   I am both happy and proud to have people around me who loves me enough to help make this "wish list" or "nice-to-have" an actual masterpiece. The photo wall, as I've mentioned before, was a wedding gift from my sis-in-law, Juvvy.    She knew the ... READ MORE
