"ber" Month Wedding Update I

missalette

finally we've completed the draft missalette. jeng, our coordinator, had reviewed it, and we will be submitting a copy to our lady of mount carmel shrine parish for approval.


invitation

on the 31st of august, we ordered our 170 pieces of invites. we also did a couple or three proof readings. the invitations are now ready for pick-up on the 16th.


MIL dress

met up with john abul at his shop for the measurements of my soon-to-be-mother-in-law. her dress will be in her birthstone color, aquamarine. the dress is nice and elegant.

that day we met up was a rainy afternoon, and the metro was heavy with traffic! i was a little pissed because i'm trying to beat time, because john has a 6pm appointment then, and there's nothing i can do because of the traffic jam. good thing that i got to his place just right on time.

fortunately when i got home, my arnold is already home watching tv. he drove all the way from cagayan just to see me... heheheh.... just kidding... because of work, actually.


cake

had my cake tasting with virginia cakes yesterday, we went over the details of the cake, and decided on a cake flavor. we decided on a carrot cake. this became a good choice since arnold does not like "too sweet" sweets. ms. virgie gave me bite sizes of her carrot and chocolate cake. arnold was indeed happy with the taste of virginia cakes' carrot cake. btw, we also made a 50% down payment. and the other 50% will be settled 7 days before the event.


honeymoon

i was in my mood of bugging arnold for him to make arrangements for our honeymoon. he promised to advise me after the 6th. so, on the night of the 6th, he called me up on my celly on his way home from work, and guess what?! he won the trip for our honeymoon. arnold has been working his ass 24/7 and topped their company's credit contest for 4 consecutive quarters, which made him the top ASE in the reseller group. his prize is a trip for 2 to any local destination. so, palawan it is! now, i have the perfect excuse to buy the pink-striped bikini swimsuit i've been eyeing. *wink*

the news made me more excited on the honeymoon than the wedding. it feels like it's more fun packing for the honeymoon than actually preparing for the wedding. hahahahaha...


prenuptial photo shoot

the photo shoot is officially scheduled on the 16th. finally!!!! we'll be having it on three locations, jorge's portrait studio, gazebo royale, and ust (i'll provide them our request tomorrow). i told arnold that i can no longer think and decide on a game plan for the shoot, the clothes to wear, the shoes, the shirt color, etc, etc, etc. he seems more excited than i am. hahahahahaha... so, told him, that he decide and i'll prepare the materials necessary. even told him, "feeling model ka ah!" hehehe...
