My Ring Bearer

0 comments
Jacobo will be one of the ring bearers for the wedding of hubby’s friend and so we have to find a tuxedo for him. I initially thought of just renting since he will just wear it once but good thing I found an online store here where I can purchase affordable but high quality tuxedos for my little man. And since I am pregnant (and lazy to go out), I don’t even have to go out of our house to purchase it since they can deliver it to our house.

I am excited for Jacobo. I am sure he will be the cutest little ring bearer. I just hope that he will not be scared to march down the aisle by himself. LOL.

For my Friend's Wedding

0 comments
A friend is getting married in a few months and since they know that I love planning parties, they asked for my assistance to help them plan for their dream wedding.

One of the requests that the couple is very particular about is the entertainment for the party so I am currently looking for wedding dj in raleigh nc for this special event. I have been doing my research and I have been reading feedbacks so my friends will not be disappointed with my recommendations.

Having a good dj to provide entertainment for the party is really important as they are the one who will give life to the after-wedding party. The kind of music selections that he have should be diverse for the different guests in the party and he should know what music to introduce at a particular time to keep the party fun.

My Cousin's Surprise Wedding Proposal to his GirlFriend

0 comments
Somebody will be wearing lingerie babydolls on their honeymoon as my cousin will soon be getting married.

My cousin proposed to his long time girlfriend and she said yes. Well who could say no to a proposal such as this?


My cousin coordinated with his alma mater as he plans to stage the proposal there. He contacted the school’s Glee Club and he pretended that they will have a program and he will be one of the participants. He asked his girlfriend to come to the practice to watch but to his girlfriend’s surprise, he proposed after he and the Glee Club were done with the song.

They had a lovely dinner after courtesy of the school’s HRM students which was set up at the school’s garden.

What a very romantic and cool way to propose. Way to go cousin and we all can’t wait to see you say I do to Hazel.

Wedding in 2012

Just a few months to go and it will be the wedding of my cousin. We all can’t wait, as it has been six years since we last have a wedding in the family. My daughter will be one of the flower girls and I think my boy will be one of the bearers too so all the more I am excited for this wedding.

Another reason why I am excited is I can’t wait to get baby shower invitations for the new babies that will be added to our family. My grand mother has now four greet grand kids and I am sure she is thrilled to have more.

Everything is almost all set for the wedding, as both the couple are hands on when it comes to the preparation. They will have a vintage theme so I can’t wait to shop for the outfit that my husband and me will be wearing for the wedding.

Hope it is March 2012 already. Now who says I am excited?

January Wedding

My cousin will be getting married this coming January. Everybody is so excited as this is the first wedding in our family after my wedding six years ago. I think the couple are now busy preparing for their wedding:

- they started to look for a reception venue already
- they already booked their church venue
- they already checked out portfolios of raleigh wedding photographers
- they are now looking for their couturier
- they already talk to our cousin who is an event stylist to dress up the venue

My cousin and I will be helping them in the wedding preparation as the couple knows how addicted we are to wedding preparations and we know where to get good deals from wedding suppliers.

Their wedding is just a few months away and I know time moves fast so we really need to start working so we can give the couple the wedding of their dreams.

The Royal Wedding

I am so excited for April 29 to watch the Royal Wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William. I am sure everybody will be tuning in to watch out for it as it will be the wedding of the decade for sure.

Not much information is given about the wedding. All we know for now is that the service will be held at Westminster Abbey. After the service, there will be a wedding procession and will past some of London's most famous landmarks. Of course the reception will be held at the Buckingham Palace to be hosted by her Majesty, the Queen.

I wonder how their first night will be. Will she wear those sexy nurse lingerie on their first night? LOL. Kate and Prince William have been going out for eight years before the prince finally asked for Kate’s hand to marry him in the holy sacrament of matrimony. Their love story is very interesting knowing that Kate is just a commoner but she came from a family whom they say are self made millionaires. She and her siblings all went to good schools and that is where Kate met Prince William.

All invitations have been sent already and looks like everything is all set for the wedding. Now I can’t wait to see how a modern Royal Wedding goes.

The Proposal

Someone close to me will be proposing to his girlfriend whom he has been dating for more than five years now. He used to work for one of the TV networks and so he talked to his former colleagues as he plans to propose in national TV.

Well I am not surprise that he chooses to propose this way as this person is very creative so I know he will plan something unique and special to pop the question to his one and only love.

I know he will do the proposal this week and he is 101% definite that his girl will say yes. I am so excited for various reasons:

• I will get to wear those a bridesmaid dresses as I am part of the entourage
• My two kids are part of the entourage too so the stage mom in me is getting all excited already
• It will be a wonderful gathering again for my family
• And it is about time that this person ties the knot

So to you, I wish you good luck on your proposal and I will reveal his identity soon when he finally pops the question.

Congratulations to My Friend

This coming January 11, my good friend Jeff will say I do to her long time girl friend. Finally!! He is the last bachelor in our group so we are all excited when he finally told us the good news that he is getting married.

I was even teasing her fiancĂ©e back then and was asking her if she really accepted Jeff’s proposal and if she is really sure with her answer. LOL. Well of course who can say no to cubic zirconia engagement rings? But I know it is not just about the ring as I know how true their love is for each other.

I think everything is almost set. They already booked all their wedding suppliers and my daughter is scheduled for her fitting for her gown as she is one of the flower girls this weekend.

I am really happy for my friend. Congratulations in advance to Jeff and Abe.

Wedding Preparations

My good friend from college visited me last night so we can discuss the preparations for their upcoming wedding this January 2011. I am helping them with their wedding preparations since I am a bit verse with wedding preparations because I was a hands on bride-to-be before.

Their reception and church venue is already booked but they are still looking for other suppliers like the caterer, florist, wedding coordinator and the like. I told them that aside from the church and reception venue, the next major supplier that they need to book is their wedding photographer.

A wedding photographer Richmond, like David Proett, is one of the in demand wedding supplier so it is important to book them early so they will be sure that they will be able to hire a photographer that will really capture all the important events in their wedding.

They have been preparing for their wedding for almost a year now so it is really important to get a good photographer who can capture everything so they will have a keepsake photos that they can come back to for years to come.

One of my best buddies from college has secretly told me that he is going to propose to his girlfriend of three years soon. Now he is asking for my help to look for engagement rings to give to her girl when he proposes.

I remember suddenly the scene from Sex and the City movie when Mr. Big proposed to Carrie. Mr. Big said that a ring important, because it is the one that seals the deal. So I really want to help my friend to find the best diamond solitaires engagement ring to make his proposal really perfect as I know how much he wanted to hear her girl friend say Yes.

So I gave him the online site of Danforth Diamond. They have a wide range of engagement rings to choose from and my friend can even choose loose diamonds and have it customized according to the design that he wants.

I am so excited already for my friend. He is the last bachelor in our group so all of us are really waiting for this big day to come.

The Fun of Wedding Preparations

I can’t believe that it has already been five years since I said “I do” to my husband. I guess time really flies when you are having fun. Getting married to the man of my dreams is definitely the happiest day of my life.

But aside from the happiness that I felt after getting married, I must say that I did enjoy those time when we were still preparing for our wedding. We prepared more than a year in advance because they say that we really have to plan early if we want to be sure that we will be able to book the reception and church venue on the date that we want.

Our wedding truly reflects our personality as a couple because hubby and I personally hand picked every details of our wedding. We were hands on bride and groom to be back then and we got a lot of inspirations from the different online resources available.

Here is a list of some of the sites that we frequently visit when we were still preparing for our wedding:

Celebrity Icing. I am always in awe every time I see celebrity weddings and so if you want to get inspirations on how to wed like a star, then this site is the best. They showcase pictures and articles of celebrity weddings and I also got my inspiration for my wedding jewelry from the Celebrity Jewelry that I saw from this site.
My Big Fat Engagement is a site that talks about everything about engagement. You can get Engagement advice here and even engagement warnings. They even feature inspiring engagement stories. So visit this site for everything you need to know up until the big wedding day.
• Planning a wedding can sometimes put pressure on the couple so they need all the help that they can get to plan their wedding smoothly and that is when Wedding Setups blog comes very handy. It is a blog where couples can get wedding planning ideas, tips and advice to help couple plan their dream wedding.
• My husband and I both don’t have an idea when it comes to diamonds and so the site Diamond Advising has been a big help to us when we were choosing our wedding jewelry. We got Diamond Buying Advice from this site so we were able to get our wedding jewelry of our dreams without hurting our budget.
My Wedding Ideas is one of my most favorite sites to visit when we were planning for our wedding as we were able to get a lot of unique wedding ideas from this site. They have lots of articles submitted by brides themselves so we were really able to get lots of good ideas that we incorporated in our wedding.

Tying the Knot

0 comments
Someone I know will be tying the knot this coming May at Acuatico Beach resort.

I love this resort in San Juan, Batangas. I haven’t actually been here since their rates are steep compared to the other resorts within the stretch of San Juan so when I learned that we will be attending a wedding here (all expenses paid – accommodation plus food and drinks for an overnight stay), I got really excited.

So as early as now I have been looking for the best under eye cream so even though I have a very big baby bump already by that time, at least my face will look good in pictures. LOL (how vain).

This will be our family summer outing too because all of us will be present for this big event. I don’t want to give more details yet as the couple is still ironing out some details of the wedding yet but for sure I will post about the wedding and our stay in Acuatico Beach resort after the wedding.
