It's more fun to dress up in the Philippines!

I never had a terno filipiniana gown. And I was hesitant to wear one. Because it makes me feel old.hehe. But because I love my good friend, Tess and she requested me to be one of the ceremony readers in her Filipiniana themed wedding, I was forced lovingly to wear one.

This is my inspirational color for the gown.

I dare not to wear as sexy as her.But the color of the gown is just perfeeeeeect!

Thank God for Tito Boy Kastner Santos for designing this gown for me. I look very happy in it.

I selected OTN's Barong Tagalog from Onesimus . Destiny to have the same color as my gown.

This is my favorite part where OTN twirls me around.

And Yes, it's more fun to dress up in the Philippines!

My Birthday with Passion Cooks

My birthday last December 2011 was extra special.

I ache at the thought of growing old year by year. Hahahaha.....I cringed at the thought of another year coming to a close and so many things are still yet to be done. I never told Maja that it was my birthday that day we were to have our 3rd food tasting with them. In fact, I never told anyone. Except my loved ones. And Facebook. LOL.

Passion Cooks was having their own private christmas party that night but Maja agreed to have a meeting with us in the afternoon. We discussed the specific details of the wedding. And Maja with Mommy Chef Laura surprised me with all of these. To my heart's delight.


Cant wait for our theme, set up and food....with Passion Cooks...Thank you God for people like them.Wedding suppliers like PC treat their clients not as business endeavours but in a more personal level. Genuine people and angels still roam the earth. :)
