Getting Married on a Thursday and August......( Rodriguez - Lazaro Wedding, August 14, 2008)



Diane have booked with us as early as 9 months back. It Will be another 9 months from now before a new celebration is to be prepared?

For now, its their wedding which is on focus. Mark and Diane are both computer science degree holders coming from my alma mater school. ANIMO......, Rektikanooh!

As the other schools' banner cheer, "one big fight!" declares is always a thrill.




Going back to their wedding, I felt that they were not the "stressful" type of couple. Diane? definitely not a "bridezilla" as we tag them in the wedding industry.
An articulate lady full of talent.

She knew what she wanted. Of course, I had to come up with the design based on her
style. The colors went well. She overcame her foot accident and made it to the aisle.

The preparation room of the hotel was filled up with her friends and of course suppliers like us.



Verbal energy was just high on that day. Almost everyone, except us(suppliers) was
kinda ecstatic or I'd say excited for Diane's wedding day. On the other hand, I gave it a thought that they could just be like that every given day given the chance
to have a get together.

Everything went well. Tried to to some last minute troubleshoots and we managed as well. It was a 2pm wedding and humidity was at the helm. But of course, its a wedding day for Diane and Mark and everyone was excited.

The bridal march commenced and everything else followed.

Luck Day, Lucky Month, Lucky Year to Get Married (Reyes - Filart Wedding, August 8, 2008)



Abigail tied the knot with long time partner Dennis

On a so-called "Lucky Date" to get married.

News on the radio I heard that 45,000 couples are scheduled to be married. Nationwide or Worldwide is a record.


It took us both to arrive at a final design for her wedding dress. As this vibrant lady would give me surprises all throughout. I guess it was only during the design part that we have to squeeze in more efforts as we eventually did it.

As efforts and perceiverance prevailed, we made it.



I knew she was happy with the dress. I am too. She texted me again to show her appreciation. I was happy. Wishing them all the marital bliss! CHEERS!
