I’m getting married!!! Ok, it’s been almost a month since fiancé asked (hilariously, I might add, details in another post), and we haven’t announced to people except some family and friends. There is this unspoken agreement that we want to enjoy this time and keep it to ourselves until possible, maybe until before the save-the-date 😉 We’ve done a bit of planning as well; We plan to be hands-on and not spend too much on the wedding; we’d rather put more funds into our nest egg. That being said, I know that the wedding will still be pretty costly and probably the most expensive celebration we’d have for a long time. We plan to focus on finding a good church/venue for the ceremony, a good place with a garden or mountainside that bundles in good food (being the foodies that we are) and making it unique and personal and memorable without breaking the bank. So far so good! 🙂
It only actually felt official when we already finalized the date last weekend, after checking out churches and venues for the past two weeks and realizing that all we wanted to book were available one weekend (just!) in March 2018. This is really happening! 🙂
I was pretty realistic and was not really expecting that we’ll get all we want, but lo and behold, things seem to be falling into place! 🙂 🙂 We managed to book a church we’re both happy about, a chapel overlooking Taal volcano and most of Tagaytay, and Antonio’s for a dinner celebration. Yes! 🙂

I just love the Scripture on the wall, reminding us of what matters most..:)
Another thing I want our wedding to be aside from being special, personal and memorable is it being green/eco-friendly. Maybe zero-waste is a remote possibility, but we’ll try our best. I’ll DIY a few things because hey, I didn’t even know I’ll get married until late last year, nor did I really think I’ll find someone. Cheers! 🙂
