because I always want to remember the sound of my child playing, laughing and singing in her charming little voice; because I want to keep a sweet reflection of my life dreams; because I want to celebrate great relationships; because I want to share little moments that have filled my heart with joy; because I want to tell stories and lessons I have learned, I blog.

Looking Forward to A Bright New Future

There exists the reality that big days are yet to come… the sparkle does not stop at the end of the wedding night. We are looking forward to more loving moments and memories as husband and wife as we build our life together!

While I make sure I wear a great wedding gown, dainty pair of shoes or put on a good make-up, I still believe that the best way to look dazzling on my wedding day is to radiate the internal feeling of being generously blessed and truly loved! My wedding day will signify a very important event in my life... I am now prepared to start a new life with the man whom I’ve chosen to spend the rest of my life with! :-)

Keeping in Mind the Big Picture

For the past 10 months, we’ve been very busy with the wedding preparations. Now it's only 3 days to go and I feel a GuSh of exCitEmeNt and nervousness entirely transfused… causing an emotionally raveling experience! WOW we’re almost there… and at this point, I want to look at the BIG PICTURE and leave the nitty-gritty – we’re done with the details na kakastress ehehe!
We certainly want to put on a good celebration. We hope things work out well but whatever happens, (this is what we've been telling ourselves over and over, hehehe!) we’ll just keep in mind that the most important part of the day is our MARRIAGE and our LOVE for each other period.

A Very Busy but Very BLISSful Time of My Life

We’re almost done with the preparations. The planning was long and there was a great deal of stress involved in it! We felt happy, excited, frustrated, angry, anxious, kaloka talaga! Pero ok lang because these are natural part of the planning process. Making decisions has never been easy for me. Decisions must be done from the big things down to the little ones… ceremony, reception venue, caterer, photographer, videographer, cake design, types of flowers, motif, wedding ring design, gowns, shoes, hair accessories, at madami pang iba.
I felt tensed, I got antsy ...who wouldn't feel like this? It’s just normal, am still the same person that I've always been... In my effort to feel relaxed, I pampered myself – deep breaths, hot oil treatment, foot spa, taking a stroll, writing my thoughts, talking with family and friends, etc. lahat na yata naisip ko just to feel better and have that fresher perspective!
I feel so grateful to Jesus for making all these happen, for giving me supportive family and friends, for keeping bil and I strong physically, emotionally and spiritually! THE JOINING OF TWO LIVES AND TWO HEARTS WILL NOT BE MEANINGFUL AND COMPLETE WITHOUT GOD'S BLESSING AND INTERVENTION! I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS PROUD AS A WOMAN! THANK GOD FOR HIS PROVIDENCE AND THANK YOU BILLIE FOR SEEING ME AS A WOMAN WORTHY OF YOUR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND RESPECT!
