Wedding Series: Pegs, Gowns, Designer Lust, etc

He asked. I said yes.

Then, everything falls perfectly into place, happily ever after and all that stuff, right? Not Really. 

It occurred to me that first of all, I need to check my lazy ass at the door and get organized fast! And Oh. My. Gawd. the list of suppliers we need to book is daunting. It's like a spoiled, rich girl's credit card bill - it just goes on and on.

Nobody told me I need to break a sweat before I get my fairy tale ending! Lols

But kidding aside, I've decided to start a series dedicated to my wedding - from the church down to the souvenirs. I believe writing down my ideas would really help me gain a solid grasp on the preparations as well as maybe help those of you who are also planning for the big day.

Almost Hitched

I find myself cringing whenever I see videos or hear stories of a man very publicly proposing to his woman. Although some of them are quite touching, I still feel like punching my face at the thought of going through the same thing. Even now, just writing about it is making me hyperventilate.

It goes without saying that I always advice my man, who happens to be a very passionate person, against that sort of stuff. From anniversaries to the seemingly obligatory Valentine's Day celebrations, I would always raise my hand at the idea of a hassle-free romantic dinner. 

The Ring

So, I was over the moon when he proposed to me in a quiet way - in a boat overseeing the Boracay sunset a fortnight before the summer ended. 

It was the sweetest, most romantic thing ever done with sophistication and dignity. It was very private (as it should be) and lovely. 

Well, almost private - if you don't count kuya who was manning the boat.
