I just had a meeting with our career counsellor for wanting to get out of the military. The conversation was very informative in terms of all the support and benefits you can get when you, or should i say I, transition to the civilian world. but i'm not gonna go into details of that meeting now. Coz this entry is not really about that, this entry is actually about...
1. how happy i am that we already booked our bridal car.
2. our caterer search - Lakeshore only has 7 accredited caterers. I emailed all of them, 4 already replied with their packages, 1 replied asking for more information, the other 2 have not replied yet. Tita Rin plus one will be doing the food tasting and all that jazz for us and i don't wanna send them to all 7. I'm trying to cut it down to 4, although 3 would be better.
3. MY bridal gown - I have been emailing couturiers left and right but i'm also keeping my options open on probably buying a gown here.
Couturiers considered:
Veluz
Veejay Floresca
Mich Dulce
Edward Teng
4. our wedding colors/theme - a little undecided coz i want red but since we already had a red wedding on our civil one, hubby wants a different feel for the church wedding. We have a theme in mind though, we are incorporating our love for coffee, travel and photography...
5. The diy's that i'm planning to do for the wedding.

first things first
Since this is my first official blog as a bride to be i will start this off with the updates on my wedding preps...
1. Church - After having like 10 churches in mind with no way of doing an ocular... A little wedding detail led us to having our wedding at Santa Monica Parish Church of Minalin, Pampanga. Special thanks to Tita Rin and Tito Dan for taking care of this for us.
2. Reception Venue - This one had an issue because the email address on lakeshore's website never replied to my 5 emails inquiring about the venue so we had our very reliable Tita Rin and Tito Adz go to lakeshore to make the inquiries for us. But they already had a wedding booked for our original date. Tito Adz pencil booked us for the saturday after and hey everything worked out. We're having our reception on the lakeshore island!
3. The Photographer - I've been lurking at Atty RF's multiply site since he won the W@W supplier of the year award and i am truly impressed with the passion that he has in capturing the perfect moments of your wedding day. Plus, he's really affordable for his quality of work... And guess what, i tried to book him without a church, reception venue and a date in mind... hahaha
4. The back-up photographer - Theresa Arigo, I've known her since college but didn't really get to talk to her until i left for the states. She's young, talented and creative. i know that her fresh ideas will spruce up the photos she'll take for us on our day...
5. The officiating priest - We are getting the priest that blessed the wedding of my in-laws... isn't that amazing??? Fr. Ted Valencia!!! and as if it was driven by fate, the day after we talked about getting him as our priest, Tita Blin ran into him somewhere and asked if he could officiate our wedding and thankfully he said yes!!!
6. The support system - our dearly beloved family both here and in the philippines are making the preps a lot easier for us plus my sisses at weddings at work have been very helpful about everything that concerns the wedding preps...
