Lushed

Jojo has this way of making me feel special. So I am exerting extra effort on working with every piece of our small wedding. I only thought of giving him beautiful memories on our day.

I dream of a Round Bronzed Presidential Table and not-so-tall bouquets in chocolate or cappuccino round pots. I also wanted a creative piece of chandelier with soft curtains that would enclose our private dining place while with our parents.

Whether it'd be a wooden seat for the guests or a tiffany solo, I wanted their tables to be lushed by my chosen combination of flowers or roses with the best scented cappuccino-chocolate mixed candles. As laid-back as ever, for guests that would be part of our big night.

The Unity Coins and Caketop Look-Alike

On a leatherette white keepsake box are 13 pieces of Unity Coins I would love to order and have on my big day. I've seen those on red boxes, they are more elegant in a way and expensive. But after a long search, I've seen that this design fits both of our personality best. They are simple and I know they will make a great match the WHITE BIBLE we will be using for the ceremonial rites. These coins I've heard are available in two versions, English and Spanish with various finishes and I wanted them in Brilliant Silver w/ Matte Base.

The Wedding Coins come to symbolize more than just PROSPERITY. There's a coin which represents LOVE, Trust, Commitment, Respect, Joy, Happiness, Harmony, Wisdom, Unity, Nurturing, Caring, Cooperation and Peace.

The other thing which interest me are these CAKETOPS made and shipped from Hong Kong once you've placed an order and you have sent them copies of the couple's photos. They will create a funny caricature out of it on wedding suits or whatever request you'd like. For couples who are very adventurous on their plan, it suits best. At first, we were thinking to place only a replica of the bride's bouquet on top of the wedding cake, but something more relevant to having a caketop we have thought of: to place our old flat band rings on a glass wine. An idea we would still consider later on.

You live your life only once. As you commit it, you make sure it is worthy so you can join them in that blissful paradise.

7th Bridal Magazine

WE BEAUTIFUL WEDDINGS
My 7th Bridal Magazine

It is never the internet nor its stories about weddings that I get information nor updates with first. I run to the newest releases of Bridal Magazines from the rack. Every important detail that delights me, I take note. For me, the magazines I buy are like a HOLY BIBLE. If I am done reading them, I flip back and re-read them over and over again until I memorize the important TO DO's and NOT TO DO's, etc. And how I take care of each magazine-- I buy a very thick plastic cover and place it with the old ones on a big bag. Along with them are catalogues and some brochures I have collected from the Bridal Fair and Venues we have attended.

You live your life only once. As you commit it, you make sure it is worthy so you can join them in that blissful paradise.

My Pair of Red Shoes

Beneath that backless ecru or ivory wedding dress, I wanted my grand entrance with something unique to be worn as I walk down that grassy or carpeted aisle.. something I would wear and carry the entire reception too. With outrageous feedback that I wanted to hear from all guests, yes, that calls for a display of a sexy, but comfortable BLOODY red STILETTOS. So come on-- who says a bride can’t wear red shoes on her big day? I just love the thought! Who knows!

"My Dream Wedding" by Riana Rose

How would I wanted to celebrate my wedding especially if money is never an issue and when I have the “K” to go for anything I want to? Well, here’s something I feel like sharing to my dear readers what I dream of having on my special day with my chosen one.

On a hot, steamy summer day at the Shangri-La Mactan Island’s OCEAN PAVILLION, where there are 350 guests who would witness the union of two souls in front of a breathtaking view of the sunset and the ocean. The bride calmly arrives on church, just on time for the 4:00 o’clock ceremony, she gets out of an old white vintage car, and set foot in front of the closed doors of the Pavillion. Her whole entourage on a bronze and cappuccino motif, smiling at her, picking some courage from the bride herself as they walk down the aisle pair by pair. Suddenly, the bride says ‘AM READY’ ... she puts on her diamond studded veil and march so composedly towards her man...

Haaa! Got you there! But my dreams aren’t done yet. I imagine of some Seafood Al Fresco Dining style while aboard on the world’s largest cruise ship, The Freedom of the Seas; We call her ... The Royal Caribbean International. And as we all dance and listen to the tune of classical music played by the String Quartet, the ship would take us across the European Seas where we would all pass by The Shrine of Liberty at the United States of America. Finally, we would be delighted by the nonstop fireworks display as we raise altogether our champagne glasses on air for the successful but another meaningful celebration of life!
