Our Wedding Orchestra...

Today, I finally sealed the deal with Maestro Johnny John Santos. Known to many as the very sought-out musical director of Studio 23, I've seen him play at my friend, Eden Estornino's wedding once and I fell in love with his music instantly.  He was also the one who played at the Santiago-Barreto nuptials at Tagaytay, one of his many celebrity weddings on list.  Needless to say, I have big faith in this man.

Mommy and I dropped by his place at Multinational Village to sign the contract. I got a string quartet, with him to personally play the piano on our big day and also two singers that he would pick himself, assuring me that I will have the nicest music on that day...

I am still ecstatic as I am writing this. One supplier down!!! Super!

The Pillow Box & Arrhae...

As usual, while Mommy and I were malling, we found ourselves heading to the Wedding Library Shop. It has always been fascinating to check out their wedding accessories. Today, I got myself a cute heart-shaped pillow box filled with laces on top. It was so cute I couldn't resist it. I also got a Unity Candle though I have no idea how to incorporate it in the ceremony.

Now I'm confused on what pillow to use on our wedding day. Leih already bought a pillow for the rings with a special fairytale pumpkin coach in the middle so we might just use my pillow for the arrhae. My mother-in-law  had her collection of coins gold-plated for us just in case we decide to use it. I was also thinking of using my mom's heirloom arrhae but when I saw this set,  I instantly fell in love with it.

I may have to start controlling myself from getting more stuff or I'll end up filling one room with accessories.. Now, how do I do it again? (^_^)

Wedding Give-Aways...

Christmas has arrived early at my doorstep. 

Today, I got Leih's Christmas gifts which included a new pink Dell Laptop and a Technomarine Designer watch. (Yeah, am spoiled silly)... He also got Zach "overflowing" food treats. But what got me excited the most was seeing our give-aways neatly stacked underneath the clothes.

We ordered our give-aways since October from David's Bridal. We both chose the design for the item and their boxes.


As soon as I fixed the contents of the packages, I happily assembled all our give-aways. It was tedious putting all the tags on each item but it was fun.

Leih said that he felt overwhelmed when he saw our "wedding items"... Now I know what he means...
