Doing the debutant gown of her sister Ynah last December of 2011, i was given another privilege by the Bassig family to do the gown of their eldest daughter Karla. With a very short lead time, we were able to do it in style. My appreciation to the cooperativeness of the entire family along with Jhaz
and his family as well. It was an early wedding ceremony to be held at Notre Dame vie chapel at the Fernbrook gardens and the reception at the Byzantine room of the same venue as well. Despite the time constraint, we were able to accomplish what was expected of us. Class A Pineapple-silk barong fabrics was given to all the male principal sponsors for them to wear for this wedding and A complete set of upscale quality of chiffon in pink were given as a gift to the female principal sponsors to be made as their attire for this wedding.
Coming all the way from Makati, me along with my staff proceeded to Imus, Cavite the home residence of the two families.
I cannot believe there erect a mansion amidst the houses in the subdivision where Karla has decided to do her wedding preparation. Jackie Rivera, the all time seasoned make-up artist did the hair and face of the bride, her mom and some other members of the entourage. Picture perfect. The era of the frou-frou (French word meaning elaborate details) skirts is very much on the rise. As if a 200 yards organza materia was not enough to do Karla's skirt alone.
Jhaz on the other hand, opted for a pineapple silk fabric all the way from Aklan with a unique all perforated detailed design that was overlayed on his cream tuxedo. A formal male attire fusing inspiration froom the east and the west. It looked more impressive in real time.
It was really a busy but festive mood we experienced when we arrived at the bride's residence and was given a very hospitable treatment and accommodation. It was a combination of pinks and silver grays, purples and lavanders for the ladies . I noticed a very relaxed father of the groom , Sir Nonoy but I can feel the emotions of the families deep inside.
It was even a delight for me to see a former classmate in medical school to stand as one of the male principal sponsors. A morning filled with fast movements, excitement and festive mood. I can see a lot of invited guests that filled up the chapel big enough to be classified as a church. The gown was very flattering to the bride and he groom as well. It was a special day for the Otchos and the Bassigs. A wedding made in heaven. A young couple and filled with love and excitement. I was a witness to this. And the support from both families, what more can I say. A wedding bliss indeed.
