Hubby and I have a nifty picture in today's issue of my blogging column in the Manila Bulletin. I've come back to writing it after an absence of three weeks!! Good thing my editor forgives me. The caption reads: " A love that was Made in the Internet, and a wedding that was made possible by the Wonders of the Internet." :D I thought this was apt for my article entitled Planning a Wedding Online which is what happens when you can't be physically present in a given place every single frickin' time. In this digital age, this is the easiest way to do it. Complete ... Continue Reading...

Ozeano Fusion Restaurant and our wedding reception at Manila Ocean Park
Manila Ocean Park is one of the city's latest tourist attractions. When I visited it with the family sometime last year, I knew that we just had to have our wedding pictorial there. I was amazed with the see-through walkway tunnel where you can view the fishes swimming in their full splendor. To my mind, it was simply one of the scenic places to have a picture for posterity with your loved one. Here are some Ocean Park pics taken by our official wedding photographer: When it was time to lighten up, we chose to have a sweet moment with the Manila Ocean ... Continue Reading...

The non-OC bride’s guide to getting married: post-wedding thoughts
I was a non-OC bride and just left it to God to make our wedding come true:) Never mind if I singlehandedly took over the planning, coordinating and implementing our wedding. A few months before, hubby made it clear that he was willing to spend on a wedding planner and I said no, we only had a small wedding and I could do it on my own. Never thought it would suck the life out of me, or it would be the cause of some arguments because of my mood swings. "Non-OC" does not always equal "non-stressed out."

God made our wedding come true…..
Life is good, we gotta wear shades.... After what seemed like an eternity of bungles and jumbles, we were finally married in our church, the church of my dreams. I walked the aisle to the tune of "'Til There Was You" because that was truly meaningful. Later on, Mr. Z would choose "People Will Say We're in Love" by Glenn Miller for our first dance. ...
