I cannot even begin to enumerate the differences between Ivy and me. Growing up, our friendship has always been based on our opposite personalities which either clashed comically or complemented perfectly. We were as different from each other as friends could ever be, but I love ...
Week 23: Found the Perfect Maternity Wedding Dress
So we're going to a big wedding this weekend, and last night, I found the perfect dress to wear to the occasion. I love it! It fits me like it was tailored for me and my huge bump! I'm surprised I could still fit in a small-sized dress, by the way, when I weigh about 130 ...
The Search is On for Tagaytay Wedding Venues
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 ...
Day 30: Home is wherever I’m with you
30/30: Anything goes! After almost two months, this 30-day project has finally come to an end. And although it took me double the time to finish this one, the fulfillment is still the same as (if not greater than) the first time I did it. And so our fairy tale wedding was ...
Day 29: Hey, it’s November 13!
29/30: Self-portrait. Yay, it's a photograph of us taking a photograph of us beside a cake-topper that looks like us. (: The days feel like getting longer. David has started going to school and we're once again adjusting to some schedule changes. For one, he has classes on ...
Day 28: God is good
Day 28/30: Black & White. Behold, the Sanchez ladies, busy applying make-up on my back. LOL. Sooo serious! I was wearing a backless gown, people, this is serious business! I'm having some sort of writer's block right now, staring at this blank space for the past hour ...
Day 27: Fonts our wedding invites are made of
27/30: Typography. I love words and fonts. I can spend hours browsing these sites, drooling and staring at fonts I can't afford. I've collected fonts through the years and I feel so bad for failing to keep a back-up. You see, when that creep (whoever he is) stole our MacBooks, he ...
Day 24: I remember how happy I was that day
24/30: Something pink. We finally got a copy of our official wedding photos from Exquisite Photography. Kuya Bim, our dear friend and Kuya who agreed to take our photos, did a really good job with them. There were hundreds of beautiful photos but the MacBooks were stolen even ...
Day 22: People around us are getting married
22/30: Hands. Here's one last solo picture of my pretty engagement ring. Shortly after this picture was taken, a wedding ring has taken up residence on the same finger. Since then, you'll never see me wear one ring without the other. I'm not sure when it started to feel ...
Day 20: Work of art + labor of love = Treatbox
20/30: Bokeh. Christmas lights make for beautiful bokehs. (: When my cousin, Ate Dots, confirmed to me that she and her husband were flying in from Sydney to attend our wedding, I just knew that I wouldn't want anyone else to do our wedding cake but her. Ever since the launch ...
Day 18: Hello, I’m still swooning
18/30: Smile. I love it when he raises his eyebrows like that. (: I've been spending a lot of idle time with David since Boracay, with me still in sick bay and needing time off work to rest. It's weird how easily I get tired lately. And then there's my backlog at work, the ...
Day 17: That swanky, forever-bound limo ride
17/30: Technology. This is the closest thing I have to technology: Mae's Samsung point-and-shoot in my hands, and this vintage limousine that took us to the wedding venue. Marvin, our videographer (have I told you guys he's awesome?), and Sheila, were in this ride with us. ...
