no work during a wedding

I was not a coordinator at all for the Karen-Don wedding (specific instructions from the bride) so I was in the dark of what was going on during the preparation. (They also kicked me out during the debrief! Hahaha!). I still insisted that kasali ako sa traditional team pose with the couple. Hehehe. (less the other Evelyn, who was part of the team, and Jenn’s team)


I must say, I enjoyed myself tremendously as a guest. :) No stress at all. Ibang iba ang feeling. I got to enjoy the day. Although, unfortunately inallergy ako after the bouquet toss. (Less pictures for me). Buti na lang it was a pretty long event, nakahabol pa ako sa mga kulitan pics after the wedding.


It was so much fun! But Loida tells a much better photo story. Check it out.

Congratulations to good friends Karen and Don!

After the rain

After the very tiring, exciting, emotional, extremely fun, syempre stressful din, joyful weekend wedding/reunion of Mae and Ariel, and after a day of rest and catching my breath, I’m now relishing on sitting at my desk, drinking my cup of coffee and catching up on my day job.

Pics to follow. But in the meantime, check out the blogs of Mae and Loids.

Here’s a run down of my favorite happenings during the weekend (in no particular order):-

  • Ang ganda talaga ng Sonya’s. It was absolutely beautiful.
  • Talap talap the food of Sonya’s! :D
  • Joreine’s prayer in blessing the food;
  • Reunion nga – seeing most of my Dubai friends all at one time;
  • During the ceremony, when Mae and Ariel said their vows (naiyak ako sobra! sobrang touched!)
  • Galing ng priest – most impressed;
  • The onsite AVP of Buddy (the videographer);
  • The best man’s (Toti, brother of Ariel, na sobrang kamukha nya!) speech (winner!)
  • The dinner the night before (with my brother, ate in law, the coordinating team and some friends) at a bulalohan. Talap, busog, talap.
  • It didn’t rain! Saturday, the day before, it rained heavily. Cats and dogs raining kind. The wedding day, the weather was beautiful.

Siyempre mas maraming kwento ang bride. Check out her blog to be updated. All in all, I felt honored to be a part of the preparation to make the wedding a reality for one of my dearest friend. I’ve already anticipated that I would be working most of the time, so I wasn’t able to catch up with kwentos with my other friends, but thank God that there’s another reunion wedding this weekend. (Karen-Don naman). Di ako work dun so dapat dami pictures.

Congratulations to Mae and Ariel. I love you both.
