Wedding Series: Ceremony & Reception

The last and final installment of our wedding series is going to be a fun one - I'll be showing pics from our reception! But first, here are a few shots from the ceremony at Sta. Ana Church (WARNING: this is going to be a photo-heavy post):

We wanted to have a laid back and relaxed program during the reception. Thankfully, we got our friend Brix to host the event for us. He did a great job of creating a lively but light-hearted atmosphere at the reception while still keeping it very intimate. We had games for the singles and a fun Q-and-A with the guests. We also had Zabadani Cafe cater the dinner for the guests and Sweet Advocate handling the dessert buffet station. We also hired an acoustic band to serenade the guests for a simple and romantic reception dinner for the wedding. 

There you go! I hope you enjoyed looking through these photos as much as I had fun recollecting the fun memories we made that day!

Travelogue: Malaysia

Since getting engaged, my fiance and I had been saving up on a whole lot of things we need to prepare for. Aside from the wedding, we're also saving up for our new home and a few several other things we need by the time we move into our new place. But despite of all the things that we are working for in life, we have vowed to travel to a place that we've never been to at least once or twice a year. And we have been staying true to this promise in the past four or five years. Hopefully, when things have settled down a bit, we can do more travel and even trips outside of the city. 

Early this year, we jet-setted to Malaysia to spend time with a friend of mine who worked there. We were there for a week and so that gave us the opportunity to see a few things that Malaysia has to offer. It was a memorable trip, no doubt. Not just because we got engaged in Malaysia but because of the sights and activities we got to experience together. 

As the old saying goes, a picture can say a thousand words. So I would spare you the blabber and give a glimpse of what we were up to in Malaysia.
