A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?" "Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."

our invites were made by Imaginovation.
it has three inserts. first is for the wedding entourage list, second is the reception details and its map and the third one is for RSVP. It was handmade with pressed flowers (yellow and purple) on it. I find it nice and simple. I really like the paper. The sample we have seen on expo was only pure green, so we suggested our supplier to add a touch of pink to follow our motiff. So what airees did was put the pink border on the main invites made the font pink.

Finally I got a time to update my blog. It was 2 months since I posted here. Well, sorry for those keep coming back here to read some post but end up reading nothing. I'm so busy these past couple of months. But don't worry, babawi ako.
here are our wedding preps update… (though it posted late)
PHOTOGRAPHER
Alan Borras of Passion Photography
The first supplier we booked. I really like his work. As I mentioned before he was my sister's wedding photographer. But what made me more convinced to get him was when I saw Cynthia and Dexter's pre-nuptial pictorial. What made me more excited about our wedding was when I saw their (cyn&dex) wedding pics and their album lay-out. (to view their pics click this -- http://cyndex.blogspot.com) I hope cynch won't get mad!! Aside from that, I'm comfortable working with him na.
Our prenups
Naku eto na ang kwento na hindi okay. Last September, alan asked me when will be our prenups. I told him later na lang kase nga we're busy. We couldn't find time and place na rin. Then came October I decided that our prenups be done here within metro manila to save money (for gas). Our scheduled date are November 4. two weeks before that date my eldest sister told me how nice the Avillon was. (She haven't been there, her friend told her about it and she saw some pics on the net). She was inviting us to visit the zoo together with my other sister and her family. She also suggested we can have our prenups there kasi nice daw talaga. At first it sounds crazy. Havung a prenups together with an animal??? She send me the website of the Avillon and I checked it out. I agree, the place is nice, its landscape, etc, etc. So we decided na dun na nga. Makakasave na rin ng gas kasi double purpose ang pagpunta dun, prenups kami, pasyal yung mga bata. But this was decided one day before the prenups. Early that day I will having a trial make-up and we already talked that he should be in our house at 12:30. So I called him na kung pwede ten nasa bahay na sya kasi we have to leave early. Avillon is on Montalban pa. Di sabi ng MUA may aasikasuhin daw sya sa munisipyo at 10 daw ang tapos nung so mga 11 pa sya makakarating. At first, nagpanic na ako. Baka malate na kami, oh no! Gusto ko na ngang ipacancel that night. That day (nov.4), its already 11 pro yung MUA wala pa. He came past 11, if I'm not mistaken it was 11:30 when he arrived. So I said he had to work fast for us not to be late. Aba! Ang sagot ba naman sa kin eh, "E di ba 3 pa pictorial!". Kaya nga sya pinapunta ng maaga kasi 12 aalis na kami at montalban pa pupuntahan namin at dadaanan pa namin si Kuya Alan. (GRRR) so nagstart na sya. Then I remembered its non working holiday (Ramadam). I also remembered what he said last night… "May aasikasuhin pa ko sa munisipyo ng 9 at 10 na ang tapos…" An tagal pa nya kumilos. Imagine he put 4 layers of foundation into my face!(Okay lang ba yun) In fairness to him, yung isa concealer. Its almost 1 in the afternoon nung matapos. My eldest sister keeps on calling. She's worried na, baka na kami. Yes! Hinapon na po kami. Nagback out na sis ko at wala na kming maaabutan dun. We end up to our initial plan -- sa parks and wildlife. 3:10 na nung nakarating kami sa QC circle, so anong oras na kami makakarating sa montalban?
Pagkasundo namin kay Alan, nagulat sya nung sumilip sa kotse. "Aba buong pamilya kasama" (Siksikan na kami). Di rin kami gano nakalayo kasi yung baby namin umiiyak na kaya konting view lang nakuhan, iba iba na lang ng post…
Oppss I'm running out of time. It's 10 pm already, I have to sleep (feel sleepy na rin)and wake up early, I'll post some updates next time. Prenups pics will be posted soon. (Hopefully tomorrow) By the way, I had a trial make up with Eddie Bruan last monday. Yung kwento next time na lang.

Last Friday night, we went to IMAGINOVATION to get 10 pieces (only) of our invites to be brought to France by my PIL. It was nice! Sorry I didn't get some shot to show it here, but promise I will show it as soon as we get the rest of our invites.
After that we went to megamall to pick the wax stamp that we ordered and brought wax stick and glue stick. When we got home, Oliver and I had practice doing stamp. We first tried it on glue stick and it didn't look so good since it looks like a plastic toy. And afterwards we tried to do it with the wax. Oliver did quite okay. He had seen movies doing to seal their letter with wax so he had an idea already.
Well, here are the samples of what we did. We have so much fun doing it. The gold one is made of wax and the silver is made of glue stick. And WHY JD… hmmm???!!!
It's our nickname's initial – James and Deng
