Theme and Motif

What else but my ultimate favorite color.... purple! hihihihi!

But a tribute to my dearest sister's Spalicious... I'll add golden accent to it. And I think its not bad but actually a REGAL effect.

I dont have a definite theme. At first, I want to have an encantadia/fairy tale theme (and I'll be cinderella! hehehe) but I dont like a balloon type gown.. so scratch being cinderella. I'm also thinking a Victorian theme.. 

But one thing for sure... I want a garden wedding, which ceremony starts at afternoon till a romantic evening reception.... 

I did a thorough research of what peg/style I like (its always "I"... because bhabha said... "whatever" you like and will make you happy.. mafih mushkila, suportahan taka!... nokkks!)

and I found these....



What to Wear: Bridesmaids





Matron of Honor Dress: My sissy personally chose this to be her dress like. At first I object because it's too revealing (do I sound so conservative?!) But she appealed that it's a garden wedding so it'll be ok... Fine!


What to Wear: Bridal Gown



*** W E D D I N G  G O W N ***


Choosing the bride's gown is the hardest part. Though it's just a one day... but it's a BIG time once in a life time event. As there's no guarantee to have a second wedding when we reach our golden days together.

Because I'm quite tall, ate Clarissa - my classmate's sister which happened.. my sister's bestfriend too, thought that mermaid cut would be fit for me. So I searched for a peg like this and I even asked my sister (Chaka) to help me find one.


This is what she proposed:

OPTION 1: Wow... hope to wear this for real!

Will You Be...



This is a DIY "Will you be our.." card. As the card says, our invitees dont have an option to say "no or maybe"... It's just "YES" or "OO". It may sound demanding but we already asked them ahead of time, so this card is just for formality purposes! :))


I made these through KEY NOTE app of Mac.. a counterpart of Microsoft Powerpoint. I'm so happy that it can be converted to image and a movie. It's a big savings on our budget... The photo that I've used is credited to Master Ozki, a friend of my colleague.

***SECONDARY SPONSORS***

Maid of Honor - Sylvia Dequito: 
I have no choice.... she volunteered... and she's my sister! hahaha! I will let her experience to be a maid of honor for the first time!
She doesnt like to be a "maid" literally, so I assigned her to take care the invitations (including the COST!) and to choose the entourage dress design.
So far, none of them are finalize yet, but for sure it'll be a hit 'coz if there's one who is fashionista.. the crown is on her!

Our Ninong and Ninang


This is the list of people whom we trust, respect and believe that will be our guidance and counselor in our journey on marriage life.



Ninong Arnel Luanzon: This looking tough man is our Pastor here in Qatar. We do believe that through his experiences as a family man and a man of God, he'll be able to guide us whenever we need it to.
Ninong Neil Bulaon: Ninong Neil is Khitz room mate from Dubai even here in Qatar! He's one of your brethren in JCTD. A man of God. For sure he'll be our Spiritual guide... and eating buddy too!
Ninong Pedro Albit: He's my colleague in F+G, we called him kuya  Pete in the office. A very kind hearted man who gives advises and wisdom about marriage life  especially when he met Khitz. So we teased him that we will make him our ninong once we decided to get married and we started to call him "Ninong" from then on.


Ninong Angelito Suarez Santos: He's bhabha's besfriend's hubby. You're not wrong of thinking of he looked so young to be a ninong for a wedding. For a very short time that I able to meet him (2 days? hehehe) I know that he can handle the responsibility as a godfather to us. He started it by helping us in our marriage license documents. :))
Ninong Tareq Chebab: He's my colleague at Atkins-CPO.  He's very close and has a heart to Pinoy mafia. 
Ninang Beth Galang: I met Mami Beth during my OJT days in Municipality of Balibago Laguna. She's a jolly person, loves to go out of town and a mom to us..... and for sure... she'll feel bad if I will not make her as my ninang! hahahah! 

Ninong Boyet and Ninang Eva Gaela: We've met them way back in Dubai and they are considered by many singles in DXB as 2nd parents - we're one of them. Valuable advices about marriage and how to work on it will surely flow from them. They already trained us in Dubai! hahaha!


Ninang Janet Arcilla: Ninang Janet is my colleague in F+G Abu Dhabi. She'll be the youngest on our principal sponsor. At first she refused to be our ninang and said that she's still young to be ninang. But I told her that it doesn't matter... as long as I can ask her one sack of rice if we need it badly! hahahah!

Ninang Vangie Pineda: Ninang Vangie is one of our Pastora in JCTD, annointed in praise and worship. Khitz told me before that she considered her as his second mom... which is true, not only to him, but to all of us in the JCTD family.


Ninang Hermilinda Arcilla: Ninang Hermilinda is Khitz's friend's mother, whose very close to him and like a 2nd mother as well.
Ninang Emma Pornasdoro: She's my aunt - Mom's sisterette. Another 2nd mom!
Ninang Criselda Bulaon: She's a loving wife of Ninong Neil. :)
