On the Big Day

I am missing Singaporean food sooooo much. I miss the kaya toast, kopi and perfectly soft boiled egg for breakfast. I miss the chicken rice too! Salivating while I am writing this. Argh!!! Why does singapore have to be 9,000 miles away?!? Hey John, I am craving for that spicy stingray! Definitely your fault! The thought of Singaporean food makes me hate being in Arizona where authentic Asian food is rare if not non-existent here. =(

October and November just flew by. 17 days ago we finally tied the knot at San Sebastian church. That 1 year church wedding preparation paid off becuase we literally had nothing to worry about on the day of our wedding. Everything just happened the way we would have wanted it to be except that we were not able to eat during the reception. Boo! The reception program got us so busy that we didn't have time to eat. Oh but we never got thirsty because the liquor kept pouring. Haha. It was a fun, relaxed and very organized (as what our friends said) event. Thanks to our wedding coordinators! I would definitely hire them again if I were to get married again. Lol. Not that I am considering this. Haha.

If there are 3 things that I made a very good decision of spending money on for our wedding, it's my hair and make-up, our photographer and on-the-day coordinator (more popularly known here in the US as wedding planner). No great wedding photographer can ever make a miracle of making a bride look beautiful at her wedding if the hair and make-up artist sucked. Haha. So glad that I trusted my instict of getting my 10-year hairstylist to do my hair and make-up. Yes, I still go to the same hairstylist to get my haircut even if it meant flying to the Philippines to get it. Old habits die hard. Lol.

Lookie at the photos so you'll believe me...



Happiness. I thought it was something unattainable. I believe that everything happens for a reason and it is God's will. I am eternally grateful for finding someone who makes me very happy. I never thought that finding him would change the way I look at marriage... and especially how I look at my life now. Cheers to more happy and exciting milestones!

So what next? Kids? Errrr.... let's talk about that some other time. Baby steps. ;-)
