Details and stories about OUR wedding
Spending quality time with your hubby, boyfriend or significant other is important in building a good foundation and keeping the relationship healthy. But regular date nights can be difficult when you’re trying to be frugal with money. Thankfully, there are a lot of cheap alternatives. Here are some ideas that…
Gerald & Melai’s Wedding Part 3: The Reception
Now for the most awaited part of any wedding — the reception! (Hey, who doesn’t love buffet food? :p) This is the part where Ge and I could have gone on a serious face stroke for too much smiling in compulsory ‘official’ group photos (formal and wacky), the part where…
Gerald & Melai’s Wedding Part 2: The Ceremony
Both Ge and I have laidback personalities, so we knew from the start that we want our wedding to reflect who we are in a casual yet classy way. Nothing too fancy, with the idea that everyone’s having a good time. We also want our guests to feel at ease…
Gerald & Melai’s Wedding Part 1: The Preparations
In the following weeks, I am going to share a series of wedding-related posts that are hanging out in my drafts for months now – details, supplier reviews or mostly, more photos about our special day. I feel like I had to document it for myself to remember, and to…
Teaser: Reminiscin’ the Big Day
After the long wait, we finally received our official wedding photos! :) Well, not really actually. The package was sent over to our Philippines address and we’re still waiting for it to be shipped to Singapore. But thankfully, Jaja’s team was kind enough to upload the artist’s picks and share…
Engagement Photos: Of Pastels and Love
The first time I saw these photos, I can’t believe it was shot under a gloomy weather. Thanks to Jaja’s exquisite eye for photography, the amount of light was just right and some photos even had that countryside aura. I am naturally inclined to soft colors, landscape and laidback feel…
Engagement Photos: Of Nature and Adventures
I remember I haven’t shared our prenup photos here yet because I was trying to save it for the wedding. And now that the wedding is over, I can finally post them! :) I was a bit nervous on how the photos would turn out at first. It was raining…
For You
It’s Valentines night and what makes this special is I know I’ll come home to a man who truly, madly, deeply loves me for me. Yiheee! We’d curl up in bed and have an Arrow/Flash/Grey’s Anatomy night in, while munching on takeout cheese sticks and honey roasted wings. My fairy-tale…
Onsite Wedding Slideshow
We wanted our wedding day to be a thanksgiving celebration for our dearest family and friends, and for it to be less about us, and more about the love and grace that we have received through the years. And yes, that’s just what happened! I thank God for His overwhelming…
Our Wedding Same Day Edit
I can’t describe enough the immeasurable joy I was feeling that day. I wish I could memorize it in my heart and relive every second of it. :) Thankfully, our amazing video team captured these priceless moments. Here’s our wedding SDE wonderfully shot and edited by Derek Yee’s team.
We Turn One
I can’t believe we’re celebrating one year of married life already! :) 3.2.1..
Save The Date
Hooray! Our Save the Date is finally out and counting the days, it’s already a little more than 5 months to go. Wuhooo! Exciting times ahead! Save the Dates are not really necessary, but since we’re living abroad and some of our family members and friends are also living and…
Wedding Venue: The Mango Farm
I used to dream of a wedding in San Agustin Church and a reception in a hotel. I don’t know when my preference completely changed but now, we’re on to an outdoor wedding. Garden wedding specifically. As mentioned in another post about our Mood Board, we wanted a casual and…
Wedding Colors and Theme
I LOVE creating mood boards. I went through the detailed process of research, layout and editing in Photoshop to come up with an overall look of our wedding. I enjoyed it too much I think I made one for all the different elements we’re working on. Haha! So how’s the…
COUPLEHOOD: Singapore Photoshoot
We’re both still “high” and in love! Yes! We decided to do a couple photoshoot (a-not-so-prenup-shoot) after our engagement and just before our civil wedding last year to continue to celebrate that moment in time and capture our happiness. Thought of sharing them today, it’s love month anyway. ♥ I…
Our DIY Civil Wedding
A month after my engagement, I married the man God personally picked for me. Kilig moment pa rin! :) I know this came unannounced but it’s not unexpected. To us, it’s all part of God’s big plan – how He told us both in each of our quiet times that…
My Heart is Overwhelmed
Hello loves! It’s been a while again since my last blog post. I just want to say thank you for all the greetings and well wishes on our engagement last month and now our recent marriage. It still feels surreal how all this happened in such a short time. It…
