I missed the WE party

I wish I was able to make it to the Wedding Essentials Beautiful Weddings 2008 magazine launch last night :( It would have been great to see the wonderful people in the wedding industry there, and meet other featured couples. Too bad my schedule didn't allow me to fly to Manila this week, and I try to console myself with the thought that I'm not much of sight to see anyway being all swollen and fat. Heheh.

I'm excited to see the issue and I can't wait till they mail my copy to me! Which I hope they do really soon. Anyone got a copy? I wanna hear about it. :) 

There are only two wedding magazines in the Philippines, Metro Weddings and Wedding Essentials. Personally, I like Wedding Essentials better [and it's not just because they featured our wedding!]. I buy their magazines more than I do Metro Weddings and during the course of our wedding preparations, it has helped me a lot in terms of ideas. I highly recommend buying WE if you're on your wedding planning stage.

One thing we didn't scrimp on during our wedding was on our wedding photography, which we totally have no regrets of. Our photographers totally delivered way beyond our expectations and showed us just why we thought they were the best among the many great wedding photographers in the Philippines today. 

When we booked Mango Red, they were relatively new in the biz, thus making us lucky enough to get their introductory rates [which were significantly lower than their current rates]. The moment I saw their work, I told my then very confused fiance that I wanted them and that we should book asap. From that time we gave them a call until our wedding day, they just got better and better, and getting even better as we speak. They never cease to amaze me, so even months after our wedding, I still visit their blog regularly. 

Recently, I found myself blown away after looking at their latest prenup shoot and I'd like to share it. 

What a beautiful couple. :) They marry on October 9th, that's tomorrow. Wow. Ang galing galing ng Dagooc brothers! 

Of course not everyone is into their style of photography because theirs is unique, edgy and out of the box. But eyelaveet!!! every bit of it. 

Out of all the wonderful wedding photographers out there, I think it's them who have truly brought wedding photography in the Philippines to a different level. :)

13 weeks pregnant!

Here's a look at what our little walnut is now supposed to be like inside mommy's fat tummy. He/she is now the size of a peach, how exciting!

As I seem to be losing more and more of my waist each day, I can't help but get excited, too. Because it also means that pretty soon my baby bump is going to get bigger (significantly), and I can finally start looking pregnant and not just fat. :)
