destination wedding: paroquia de san agustin, lubao, pampanga
reception: lakeshore, pampanga
photo: cherryblocks

a little over three p.m., the groom is yet to arrive at the church. soon after, he went straight to their wedding officiant to apologize for being late. coming some forty minutes away, michelle, i am assuming is not worried that he won’t show up. after all, keeping her waiting and giving her a little scare may have been part of luisito’s one too many crazy ideas all along.

some footnotes: the bride dressed up at the gorgeous family-owned farm. it was my first time working with chuck and the rest of cherryblocks. it was also my first time riding a helicopter. i found a boyfriend for my pet shih tzu. lastly, the groom and his totally funkalicious dance moves single-handedly burned the freakin’ dance floor! =)

gong xi fa cai!

destination wedding: mayon planetarium, albay
photo: dino lara
gown: niko hernandez

along mayon volcano’s 6-km permanent danger zone, we witnessed one of the most beautiful exchange of vows. it was a fairytale of a different kind where the princess waited almost a little bit too long before prince charming came along. this film shows you what happened when the waiting ended. =)

destination wedding: acuatico beach resort, batangas
gown: vera wang
hmu: xeng zulueta
styling: 4th wall

in the middle of the unusual rainy december, mon and marga’s civil wedding to be held at acuatico’s pool area was in a little bit of trouble the night before. fortunately, an hour before the ceremony, the scary dark clouds passed and the sun came out. the ceremony lasted for just fifteen minutes but it was a beautiful wedding nonetheless. happy new year! =)

here’s a couple of videos from the wet and wild december craze. these are actually back to back tagaytay weddings during the second week when i think i spent too much time with the red chair and horses. =) happy new year y’all!

being the daughter of the legendary hotdog’s (you know—bongga ka day, manila, pers lab, beh, buti nga) frontman, you expect a free concert during the dinner reception. and like every time they had the stage, the band just freakin’ blew the roof off! the set actually started during the first dance when the bride’s dad sang ikaw ang miss universe ng buhay ko, while the newlyweds waltzed.

that david guetta song is the hottest and most requested song right now. this happened to be the first of the hundred sde’s i’d be working with using this music. no copyright infringement intended! =)

ceremony: fernbrook gardens

couture: veluz
flowers: vatel manila

as we catch our breath from all the crazy shopping panic and the monstrous holiday traffic, i present another fun-filled wedding video to relax ourselves. notice how marris and abby’s funky soundtrack mixed with their happy-go-lucky personalities turns into an emotional but not overly dramatic sde. sweet!

shout out to maja of passion cooks for the awesome “crew” meal! =)

ceremony: santuario de san antonio
venue: north forbes pavillon

i’m losing count of the number of days i am away from home and it is inevitable that i’ll find myself blogging from out of town. no worries though, i am loaded and videos are lined up ready to be blogged. =)

bowties, vinyl records, old school suitcases…you blink, you miss a detail. veejay and tyke’s wedding is no one else’s but the bride’s brainchild. sweet!

international wedding: st. teresa, singapore

for just this instance, let’s forget about money shots. let’s drop them fancy crane shots and smooth glides. for just this instance, let’s indulge ourselves to the beautiful celebration that was ken and janice’s wedding like we’re all part of it. i’ll try my best to bring a little bit of the experience, a sneak peek per se, right in the comfort of your own viewing pleasure.

it was rainy season in singapore and the challenge for our usual husband and wife team was again pushed to another level. hmmmm, the nostalgia that the film brings somehow misses the epic story that was the night before about my driving over the speed limit and our almost missed flight. well then, i hate to keep you from falling in love with the latest from twilight’s ost (before this ear-candy goes viral) so here’s the video. =)
