Who doesn’t love
weddings? For me, weddings are always
beautiful. It’s a mark of new
beginnings. Whenever I attend weddings, I
always feel the love in the air and I would always reminisce the time my
husband and I said I do to each other.
The third week of December
2015, we were on a very hectic schedule.
With all the Christmas parties we have to attend, we were also invited
to witness two weddings (in the same week, thankfully not the same day). What’s with December that it’s now the fad
for weddings?
Anyway, the first wedding
we attended was of a very good friend, Anj.
She’s Neo’s godmother. Anj wedded
her boyfriend of 13 years, Von. I am
friends with Anj for more than 8 years already and I have witnessed how these
two love birds are made of each other.
Their wedding was set at Silang, Cavite – both ceremony and
reception. We attended the ceremony, and
drop by at the reception to give our gift, but didn’t stay long. Unfortunately, I need to attend a Christmas
party in the afternoon.

Congrats, Anj and Von!

The next wedding we
attended was of Papa Leo’s cousin, JR to his ladylove Nica, at Cagayan. So a day after Anj and Von’s wedding, we were
already traveling to Cagayan by land. We
can’t miss this wedding. Because JR and
Nica made Neo one of their ring bearers (they have two ring bearers), and I
couldn’t be more thankful to them. It
must be every mom’s dream to see their son or daughter become a bearer or a
flower girl.

his turn.

This is the first time I
was able to attend a wedding at Cagayan.
It’s just like any other wedding, but more family-oriented. Relatives from different parts of the
province came to witness as JR and Nica exchanged vows.

Side Note: Because bearers are little boys who are quite
restless and full of energy, some of them didn’t walk properly in the
aisle. When it was Neo’s turn, he walked
with grace. Everyone was so proud
because he didn’t even attend the rehearsals and yet he was so good at his
assigned job. Turns out, his very
resourceful Papa put my mobile phone inside of the pillow (where the ring
was placed) and told his son to walk carefully so my phone won’t fall and be
broken. :P

Cheers! Here’s a virtual toast to Anj and Von, JR and
Nica for a lifelong of married bliss and blessedness!
