Glad to finally be back to blogging. Plus, hubby will be joining me in updating this blog. Isn't that cool? :-)<br />
<br />
So what happened these past years?<br />
<br />
1. We are blessed with some trips/travel.<br />

2. We also attended Couple's Getaway (Love Will Keep Us Together) on Oct 2012.<br />

3. We have volunteered in VCF-Alabang Kid's Church.<br />
4. We're blessed to be able to buy our reliable car - "Faith"<br />
<br />
<br />
But life isn't full of sunshine or a bed of roses for us. We've also experienced some pains....<br />
1. My dad returned home to his Creator on 18 Nov 2011, 2days short for his 91st bday and our 1st wedding anniversary. Oh I miss you daddy!<br />

<br />
2. My bro-in-law Pao (Hubby's bro) suffered from Guillain Barre Syndrome on Nov 2013. He's still recovering and even with his hands still stiffed and still on a wheel chair he made this wonderful "eye" piece.<br />

With all that happened to us, we still thank and praise God and we're looking forward to whatever is in store for us the coming days.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Instead of having our (Stan and I) childhood photos, I asked John Marvi of Cinemaworks to make an AVP for my dad. He celebrated his 90th birthday exactly on our wedding day. My decade long prayer has been answered - dad walked me down the aisle and we had the father-and-daughter dance.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Thank you for being my dad. I love you so much.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Note: The persons in the video were my nephew and niece based abroad . We asked them to send a video greeting since they're the only Apos not present that day. </span><br />

But then, ang hirap din pala. Hindi ko alam kung san ako titingin, at nakakapagod magpose hahah! What makes me just sad is we don’t have any picture of the setup (table setup, buffet setup and others related to the caterer’s setup). Maybe because of the rain, everything went so fast. Still, I’m happy with the photos and the relationship we have with our photographers.</span>

</style><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">At first, we thought that the photographer Raymond Fortun is a different person from the famous lawyer. Stan and I really love his works, but he’s already booked on our original date (12-12-09). Good thing some things didn’t fall according to plan (almost all suppliers that we want we’re already booked since we started the preps late), we moved the wedding date to November 20, 2010 and he’s still free for the event. He was so down to earth considering his status that made us even more excited working with him.<o:p></o:p></span> </div>

We had several revisions on the arrangements to fit the budget that I have set. My supposed-to-be-bouquet was lavender ecuadorian roses but we decided to change it 2 weeks before the wedding because of my bridal gown color. Dealing with him is such a breeze. And sometimes, we're not talking about my flowers. We're just making chika until 1AM :)</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b>On the Day Performance: </b>He was known as Mr. Early Bird. He sent me an SMS around 7:30AM telling me that my flowers were already in La Huerta (I'm still home and having breakfast hahaha!). Too bad I wasn't able to have a picture with him! Upon my arrival at La Huerta, I immediately checked the flowers in the room. I love them. Even the other suppliers were raving on how beautiful the bouquet was.

I really wanted it but have to check our budget first since it is a bit expensive. Good thing hubby Stan gave me the go signal to book it because he wanted me to be seated comfortably on our way to church (how sweet). He also consider my dad (who was 90years old) so he could extend his legs on our way to church. We have our transactions mostly through email and sms. It was only 1 week before the wedding when Stan scheduled a meeting with him to pay for our balance.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

Our call time is 1:30PM for a 3PM wedding. We asked them to arrive early so we can still have pictorials with the car, but it arrived around 3PM already. I arrived at the church around 3:30PM. I found out that the car had some problems on its way to Antipolo and has to be fixed. Anyhow, I am still satisfied with the car. My parents (dad and mom), HMUA, PA-Coordinator, MOH+Boyfriend were with me in the car on our way to church. It helped me feel calm as I was beginning to get nervous and cold. On our way back to La Huerta, 1 photographer and 1 videographer plus Stan joined us in the car but still, we're not crowded. After the reception, I was surprised to see Jappy and his girlfriend outside waiting for us and give us a ride to our hotel. It was so nice of them.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">I know the bride should look her best on her wedding day so finding the right designer is very crucial. I happen to meet Emil in one of the bridal fairs in Megamall early this year. He was a very nice person - soft spoken and easy to talk to. Stan and I visited him in his office to discuss more about my gown. I showed him my gown inspirations and he quickly drew a sketch for me, including the 2nd look. Though I really love the initial design he made for me, my gown design was a work-in-progress. Every visit in his shop, we'll have some revisions on the design so the gown can be more "ME". He was kind enough to listen to my suggestions and was willing to execute the the things that I want (eventhough some of those things would be his first). He also changed my veil and petticoat 1 week before the wedding because I changed my mind. :D</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">He also helped me find a supplier for Live Butterflies. I informed him 2 days before the wedding and he was able to find one for me. </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"></span><br />

I was worried that I will not look good in it because I didn't go on a diet (sarap kumain eh!), but most of my guests said that it was so "ME". I even heard one of my officemate during my bridal walk saying "I like your gown!". </span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">My MOH who will be be getting married 2012 was convinced and will have Emil do her gown as well. And yeah, </span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">I also love my 2nd look - that furry bolero and bustled train. </span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Pre-Wedding:</b> It was love at first sight. The moment I stepped outside Casa Vieja and have a beautiful view of the city, I know this is the perfect place for our wedding. Anton (the owner) was so accomodating. He answers all our queries both email and SMS. He even calls us to explain things regarding our concerns.The staff of La Huerta were also nice. They assisted us during occular visits and prenup pictorials. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>On-the-Day Performance:</b> </span><span style="font-size: small;">The staff are so maalaga. They helped us carry our things when we arrived in the morning. They were also around to check if we need something like extension cords etc. When it rained, they helped Hizon's Catering transfer the setup from the garden to the main house. They even gave umbrellas to the guests from the parking.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The place was so big that even Stan and I stayed in the same house, we didn't see each other. I also have so many suppliers but we were able to move around freely. There are also a lot of places for photoshoot.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">It rained on our wedding and our original plans didn't pushed through. The cocktail area that was supposed to be at the Tipolo Deck was transferred to San Isidro Pavilion. The reception area which was planned to be at San Jose Pavilion was moved to Casa Vieja. But still the place was perfect. Perfect for our dream wedding. </span><br />

</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Pre-Wedding:</b> Hubby and I were food lovers. We love eating and we eat a lot! So we decided to allocate a big amount of our budget to food. We even agreed to serve as many food as we can afford on our reception dinner. and we need a good and reputable caterer to handle our event. Hizon's was our top choice among all the other caterers. They were the first supplier we booked :) Our AE, Maia, was very accomodating. She took notes on all my concerns, especially on those items that we're not going to avail from the standard package. All documents were endorsed properly to the planner during turn over. Drew was the assigned planner to me. He was nice and very hands on. He knows his job well and will make you calm whenever you feel stressed. Our SMS exchanges sometimes last til 1AM. Our detailing was a breeze. He makes suggestions on linens, styles and even our menu.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>On-the-Day Performance:</b> I love them to pieces! I admit I am very hard to please but I know how to appreciate efforts. And I know they did their best to serve us and our guests. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Since we have our preparations in La Huerta, I was able to see the setup of San Jose Pavillion. Then before we left for the ceremony, it rained. So they have to remove the linens to avoid getting wet. Then after a few minutes, the sun shone brightly and they started putting back the linens. I was hoping for a good weather til rest of the evening, but i think rain is my twin (as it is present every important event in my life), it rained again during ceremony pictorials. So they decided to move the whole setup to Casa Vieja. If you knew how La Huerta looks like, Casa Vieja is 2-floors above San Jose Pavilion. Guests were starting to arrived and Hizon's crew were able to set up fast. The buffet tables remained in San Isidro Pavilion so we need to have a Sit-Down dinner for guests not to get wet in getting their food. I think there were only 20+ waiters that day, since our package is really for buffet. But they were able to serve food to all our guests. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Drew was very hands on, and super bilis kumilos as per W@Wie friends that attended our wedding. The rain didn't stop him from performing his duties, so he ended up as "basang basa sa ulan" that night.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The food was good, oh so good!

Vegetarian guests appreciated that we have salad and there's a veggie dish as part of our menu. Even friends who have big appetite says "hindi namin maubos yung sinerve samin sa sobrang dami". </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

Then when he noticed that we're not able to eat well, they packed the food so we can take them home.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

</style><span style="font-size: small;">After the event, I thank the Head Waiter and the Food Head (i forgot the exact position title, basta she's the one assigned in managing the food) and they were so happy that we appreciate their efforts eventhough we encounter some problems because of the weather. Then they asked us to answer an evaluation form on how they performed that day. They even showed me another sheet of paper for the endorsement of left overs. Then they handed us the left over food - one pack for my family, another pack for hubby's family and another pack for us. And when I say pack, its around 4-5 big styros of food. :)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Pre-Wedding: </b></span><span style="font-size: small;">He was one busy and super humble guy. During those time, he doesn't accept pencil booking. So when we're able to set a meeting with him, we're on Team B now. But that doesn't stop us from getting their services. We know Elmer trained them well. A week before the wedding, we met Elmer to discuss what we wanted for our reception, including the music to be played. We let him share his ideas and how he envisioned our wedding reception. We know their team has been doing this for years and they know what would look best for our event. So we gave our approval on his concept.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>On-the-Day Performance: </b>Elmer wasn't able to come during our event (bantay sarado daw kasi yung coordinator nung Team A nya) but I trust his crew that they will deliver. And yes they did. They had the setup early at the San Jose Pavilion, but have to move everything upstairs when it rained. We love the lights as well as the music played during the program.</span><br />

This applies to all the decisions I make like course to take in college, solutions to problems, but most especially in finding my future mate.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">At the age of 10, I started to pray for my future husband. All along I thought I was doing the right thing. I'm asking God for His perfect will but I gave some specifications - an engineer with a not-so-common sports, very technical guy with an artistic side, Christian plus of course the traits of a lover. That's my dream guy. I continued praying that God will give me that person in the future.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">My past relationships somehow satisfied the criteria except for one - they are non-Christians. I still pursued for it believing that it was the will for me, but deep within me, I know they're not the one. The relationships were all failures. With the heartbreaks I had experienced, I decided not to have a boyfriend for a year and re-structure my prayer. This time, I didn't provide any criteria to God. I purely trusted Him and waited patiently for His perfect will.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">While waiting, I devout my time serving Him. I played the piano at church and was actively involved in our church's youth organization. I also have bonding time with my parents, sisters and friends which I have previously ignored the past years since I am pretty much occupied with my relationships. Everything went smoothly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">And then I met him, in the most unexpected way I could ever imagined. I never thought we would end up together, but we did. We are totally opposite poles but by God's grace we understand each other and we're able to have a harmonious relationship. I ask God, "Lord is he the one?" And then I checked my heart and all I can feel is love and peace within. Now I know, yes he is.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">He may not be the guy I've dreamed of. He's not an engineer, he's not technical but he is a Christian. My relationship with him may not be perfect as this guy is not perfect as well. But I know he is the answer to my decade-long prayer. He is the one reserved by God for me, my perfect match, His perfect will.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Happy 3rd year anniversary Honey. I love you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I'm looking forward to spend our years together as husband and wife.</span><br />

We had an appointment with Mr. Rey Casedo for Stan and Daddy Rolly's barong. Mang Rey is from Lumban, Laguna and is famous in <a href="http://www.weddingsatwork.com/">W@W</a> for his good quality barongs. Actually, Stan already bought a barong from Onesimus last July. But my ever OC mom wants Stan to be his best on our big day so she kept on bugging me to get a custom made barong. Stan will be wearing a pure pina barong. He doesn't want the swirly designs so he chose the one with the straight lines pattern.</span></span></div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />

Mom, Stan and I arrived in the City Hall as early as 7:30AM. We went to the Civil Registry Office and were immediately given forms even though it's not yet office hours. We finished filling up the forms in less than 15 minutes. We submitted the forms, then the staff informed us the amount to be paid. The staff volunteered to bring the payment to the Cashier so we don't need to fall in line. After a few minutes, he was back with the receipt. We will be getting the license on the 30th of September.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

I told her i wanted to have the same souvenir for our wedding. February this year, we booked Partypics for our photobooth and they gave us eco-friendly loot bags. I showed it to my mom and she decided to pattern the size with it. We bought "katsa" cloth and my mom did the sewing. Stan on the other hand did the layout of the design printed in the bag. My contribution? Is the concept considered? :P</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />

But this year, it will be a triple treat. My parent's decided to throw a simple party for Stan and me, last August 14 to celebrate our engagement. It was a small event, around 40-60guests mainly composed of relatives and close family friends. The venue was decorated by my cousins, and they conceptualized the programs/games as well. We were also entertained by a violin number. On the later part of the program, gifts were given to us. And we almost complete our kitchen needs! It was a happy and blessed afternoon indeed.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We arrived at the venue around 1PM and immediately discussed our story board. After half an hour, we started preparing for the shoot. I did'nt realized that a 2-3minute video will be shoot for around 4-5hours. We have to take different shots with the glide cam and they are mentioning something like a wide screen shot. We don't really know this stuff so we just do what the videographers say. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I thought it won't rain since the sun is shining brightly at noon time. Then a few raindrops, but still the sun is out. Around 4PM, it started raining. The videograpahers asked us to bathe in the rain. It was fun, just like our childhood days. But with my heels on, not really. haha. Rain was pouring hard aroung 5:30PM and it was so dark that the lights around the venue plus the videographer's flash wasn't enough. We have to changed the ending of the story. I was dripping wet after the shoot.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</style> <span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">August 17, 2010 - I was really upset before going to this meeting since we are already late. The traffic had been really bad due to rainfall that afternoon. I kept on apologizing with the couple we're meeting on our way to Megamall.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Then finally, we met the partners - John de Guzman and Merwilyn Cerda of Cinemaworks. Stan and I really like their works and fell in love with it more when we saw the samples of the final video. It was not the usual MTV style, it was like a short film. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">We then proceed with the discussion of items such as - number of videographers on wedding day, equipments that will be used, package inclusions and delivery of the final output. Their rates already increased based on my last inquiry and it's all my fault since I didn't book them in advance. That's the consequence we have to endure. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I was initially thinking of meeting another videographer end of this month, but after meeting with Cinemaworks, we decided that we found the one. </span><o:p></o:p></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
