That 500 Days of Summer song felt like last Saturday’s soundtrack!
Saturday, May 5, 2012. A few friends and I went on a road trip to Tagaytay to scout for a wedding venue. It started out as a top-secret mission, LOL, but since word has been out in the grapevine already anyway, I thought there’s no point hiding from our friends (and from this blog) what we were up to that day.
We had a specific purpose going there alright, but mostly, I’m happy for the excuse to be out with good company. It was a day of sun, and laughter, and food, and jokes we wouldn’t dare talk about in front of our pastor, haha.
The people you’re seeing in the photos are just some of the friends I grew up with—back from when we were diaper-clad toddlers, through our semi-reckless, semi-rebellious teenage days, to now, traversing through adulthood and growing in age and in faith. Two of them are getting married (to each other!) in August, and as I said, one of them is on the lookout for a wedding venue.
It’s easy to lose track of the years when life is so full, eh? :)
The photos above were taken from Jardin de Rosella, Leisure Farms, and Ville Sommet—all of the beautiful wedding venues in Tagaytay that are worth considering when you’re planning for a destination wedding. I thought of posting rates and reviews, but this blog has never been about reviews so I guess if you’re interested to know more about these venues, holler in the comments section and let me share the info I’ve gathered to you. :)
congrats btw riz! twins are sent from heavens. i would like to know the review too, lest someone propose to me that i know where it should be held. Thanks
Thanks Cherie! Will email you soon :)
Is Hobbes one of the “two of them”??? :) I know Jasper is. :)
What are the rates, Riz? Curious lang! And you know, knowing might come handy one day. lol :)
Haha one of the girls is Jasper’s fiancé. Malamang hindi naman si Mae yung isa pang ikakasal haaha. You’re quick! ;)
Ville Sommet rates are above 100,000+ but for really good reasons (sobrang ganda don! Tsaka malaki!). Jardin de Rosella is a lot more affordable, 50,000+ to 100,000+ depends on how big your crowd is. Leisure Farms is by membership eh, so if you’re a member (or if you can find one), you can use their clubhouse starting at 10,000 lang. :) Ganda din siya, but it’s still a clubhouse, not really an event venue. :)
Uyyyyy ha, “one day” has got to be real soon!!!!! :)
