as promised, here are pictures from my wedding.
i'll give you a round-up of the events when i get time by tomorrow.
for now, enjoy the pics ;p

(here's the round-up LOL)

the day prior to the wedding, a couple of things happened:
1. grace and i fought yet again because of the gown. my titas and my mom delivered it 'cause apparently, the groom ain't supposed to see the bride a day before.
2. there was a mix-up and a delay in the delivery of the gown 'cause my titas and my mom insisted that they buy a gas lamp. this lamp was brought to grace's house, and remained lit until the following day.
3. gilbert arrived from singapore to become one of the secondary sponsors for the wedding (aww, sweeet).


on the day of the wedding, some stuff happened as well:
1. i noticed that my barong had a stain.
2. the make-up artist was late. she came to grace's house at 9.30am, and left there around 1.30pm. yup, 1.30pm. it took him another hour to finish up the make-up for my sister and mom.
3. an hour and a half before the wedding, the church called and told me that they lost the marriage license. they told me that the wedding might have to be postponed. i was more than angry; i was infuriated.
4. at the wedding, i stood in front of the church for the pictorial. it was bloddy windy. i had no good shots.


during the wedding, grace and i didn't have any serious pictures. even afterwards, geez. twas like it was one big wacky party.


after the wedding, grace and i spent the night at el grande (don't you think dirty now, man. she had menstruation huhu). twas the height of typhoon cimaron.



the following day, we went home to our apartment- drenched 'cause of the rain.



i'll post more pics soon. promise ;p

asian media information and communication center (amic) secretary-general indrajit banerjee also graced the event, helping students and faculty to realize the value of communication education in the asian context, and how the world of media is slowly reshaping itself.
