a wedding/reunion

Posted on April 27, 2008 - Filed Under Getting Married, Money Matters, Ramblings | Leave a Comment

Ramil and I attended one of my former officemate’s wedding last April 19. Both the bride (my former officemate) and the groom are Chinese so it was a church-full and ballroom-full of Chinese or at least Chinese-speaking people. There were even parts of the wedding when we could only guess what it was being said [...]

My friend is getting married this April. Their wedding is a big one and I’m excited about it. It will be a big chinese wedding and I heard that they will be spending a lot on it. They have almost everything ready already except for some little minor details. She’s also asking for help on [...]

I came across Noemi Dado’s Love Struck Writing Contest. I didn’t really plan on joining but then I thought, who knows, I might win $50 If you have a love struck story too, you might want to join too. My entry below was originally written and posted while we were in the midst [...]

a wedding date

Ramil and I were able to go on a date last January 2. We attended Leo and Dawn’s wedding and it made for a really good date for us. It was held in a beautiful outdoor venue by the bay, the food was great and there was dancing! We definitely had fun.
The ceremony was short [...]

old engagement

My generation is slowly entering that time in our lives when almost everyone we know is getting engaged. I still remember last year when my male officemate was asking around about diamonds. It seems that he and his girlfriend of almost 10 years were finally planning to get married. Little did I know that I [...]

Now that I am married, I don’t expect to be included in a wedding’s entourage list. It seems though that some people don’t care whether their entourage are married or not. I still remember when we were planning our wedding. We had some difficulty finalizing our entourage list because some people we wanted to include [...]

the wedding month

Posted on November 16, 2007 - Filed Under Getting Married, Money Matters | Leave a Comment

For several years now, December has become the wedding month. Ramil and I got married in December 2005 and at that time, we already experienced difficulty in booking some suppliers because they’d usually be fully-booked by December. Nevertheless, we wanted December because it’s our favorite time of the year, Christmas! Everything is well-decorated and well-lighted. [...]

marriage made online?

Is it possible?
I used to be skeptical about online relationships, especially those that involve romantic love. My skepticism diminished as I spent more and more time online. I started forming online relationships of my own, none of them romantic. I was able to meet a lot of people online whom I now consider friends. I [...]

time for weddings

Posted on June 12, 2007 - Filed Under Getting Married, Ramblings | 2 Comments

I recently received not one, but two, save the date cards (or in this case save the date email?). It seems that several of my friends and ex-officemates are now engaged and plan to get married next year. I guess the year 2008 will see a lot of weddings since it has the number 8. [...]

renewal

“Ramil, I still can’t believe we’re here now. Everything that we’ve planned and wished for are already happening. We’ve been through a lot, I never would have thought 15 years ago that you would be the man God wants me to be with. You’ve changed from being my classmate to being my best friend and [...]
