The Cake....

THE CAKE

This is the cake that Rey of Freshcuts customized for us. I saw kasi a picture online of a calla lily cake which Nice & Morning had on their wedding. It was also Rey who did their cake. So upon meeting him, and with respect to Nice & Morning, syempre we had ours customized na rin. Simple din cya, just like the gowns. 4 layers, 2 of which are edible. May crystals and edible calla lilied around it, tapos fresh calla lilies on top. No flavor yet. Hehe.

The Gowns....

As promised, I have scanned na the sketches of the gowns. Kinda sad coz it isn't clear as what I expected it to be. May blue smudges sa drawing when it was scanned while the orig copy is super clear naman. Haayy... Anyway, I have the original copy with me naman so, ok lang. Funny talaga! Whenever I see my gown, I can actually imagine myself in it. Kuhang-kuha ang taba ko. Lolz... Diet na ito to the MAX !! WAAAAHHH!! The gowns that I want are simple lang. No frills na sobra whatsover. Bagsak lahat ng cut ng gowns coz I want it light and airy.

of sketches......

Got 2 of the sketches that Lory, of Pixie Weddings, made. Got the sketch for my gown, and the other sketch was for the MOH. She still has to complete the sketches for the SS, Bridesmaids, and Flowergirl. Funny. It seemed like she took a picture of my body, neck down for her to make the design for my gown. The sketch she made kasi was on the heavy side as well. Hehe. MOH gown is simple. Accent lang will be placed on the shawl. Puro rhinestones and pearls yata. I think I have to take another look at the sketch. Hehe. Will post the sketches once I have them scanned. Will scan the sketch Rey of Freshcuts made na rin for the cake. It has been quite a tiring day for me. Gotta end now.......

What does your handwriting say about YOU?

OMG.... The analysis simply describes MEEH! The results of your analysis say: You plan ahead, and are interested in beauty, design, outward appearance, and symmetry. You are a social person who likes to talk and meet others. You are negative, fearful, resistant, doubtful, and/or selfish. You are not very reserved, impatient, self-confident and fond of action.

Never Apologize

:: NEVER APOLOGIZE :: I got this from an e-mail from one of my friends. 1. Never apologize for pursuing what makes you happy. Even if you need to quit your job, transfer schools, or move across country, always do what you really want. >> if only my officemates can read this... lolz... 2. Never apologize for using proper English. Keeping it real doesn't mean speaking Ebonics. 3. Never apologize for giving your best in a relationship that just didn't work out. 4. Never apologize for being successful. Only haters want to keep you at their level. 5. Never apologize for crying. Wear waterproof mascara and express yourself. 6. Never apologize for ten pounds you need to lose. People who truly care about you will accept you as you are. >> yeah, right !! 7. Never apologize for being frugal. Just because you save your money instead of blowing it on the latest fashion emergency doesn't mean you're cheap. 8. Don't apologize for being a single mom. Babies are a blessing >> hats off to you, jhoy! 9. Never apologize for treating yourself to something special. Sometimes you have to show yourself some appreciation. >> hehe, an excuse for buying more books and magazines! yey! 10. Never apologize for leaving an abusive relationship. Your safety should always be a priority. 11. Never apologize for keeping the ring even if wedding bells won't chime. 12. Never apologize for setting high standards in a relationship. You know what you can tolerate and what simply gets on your nerves. 13. Never apologize for saying NO. >> INDEED! 14. Never apologize for asking for what you want in bed.

There's a reason she's been your girl from day one. 17. Never apologize for ordering dessert. Or more than one dessert. 18. Never apologize for dating outside your race. Just because you found Mr. Right across the color line doesn't mean you don't love your brothas. 19 . Never apologize for not knowing how to cook. Even if you can't burn like Grandma you know how to order good take out. 20 . Never apologize for your taste in clothes. It's your style. 21 . Never apologize for changing your mind. 22 .

Updates .... updates....

Oh my! It's been quite a while since this page has been updated. Have been very busy the past two months. 7 months to go till the wedding, and we still have a lot to accomplish. We're not quite worried though 'coz most of the important suppliers have been booked. Here's a rundown of the events that transpired the past 2 months: March 20, 2006 : MIL2B arrived. Yippeee.. Though her trip will be cut short ( coz she has to back in December), her stay here was fun and enjoyable. March 30, 2006 : PAMAMANHIKAN - Ganun pala ang feeling. Hehe. I kept on whispering to Louie how nervous and excited I am. First time kasi. Lolz. Imagine, sa pamamahikan nervous na me, what more on my Wedding Day! Waaaah.... Everything went well, actually there wasn't any planning done coz planned na halos ang lahat the day after being engaged. Hehe. Talk about being excited! Lolz. April 4, 2006 : PUERTO GALERA -Had a blast! And being a certified Galera virgin ( sis Jacque, d ka nag-iisa Ü), I really enjoyed my stay there from day 1. Though I didn't get to stay in the water for long because of the "girl thing", nag-enjoy naman me sa pamamasyal. Most of all, enjoy coz I was with Louie's family. More updates to come - mostly wedding updates na!
