Planning your wedding usually starts with the much awaited question, "Will you marry me?" Naku sarap talagang sagutin ng tanong na yan. Pero mabigat ang kahulugan. Because once you say yes, that would mean a lifetime commitment. So, before you say yes, make sure na reading-ready ka na.

Remember, a wedding is a day, a marriage is a lifetime. Kaya kung naka-oo ka na, I guess that means, deep in your heart ay handang-handa ka na for that commitment.

All throughout the year, maraming mga Pinoy couples ang ikinakasal. Pero para sa mga wedding coordinators, December ang Wedding Month dito sa Pilipinas. Ako nga December din ikinasal. Busing-busy

Planning my dream wedding was one of the most important and biggest task in my life.

Dearest brides-to-be, kung litung-lito ka na sa dami ng dapat mong ayusin at tandaan, don't panic, relax ka lang. Eto, bibigyan kita ng isang personal na tip, ang aking precious wedding clearbook.
