Your Events Team coordinated Erwin Amio and Dezzalyn Basaca Wedding Party last October 1 at Christ the King Church and Blue Leaf.
Big thanks to the couple who treated not just us but all the suppliers not as suppliers but as guests/friends. Highlights of the wedding were the couple's Dance Evolution Number, the Money Dance, the Bestman's toast and the sweet and fun thank you message of the couple.
Bravo and a big thanks to all the suppliers we've worked with that night! As always, wedding suppliers are the REAL PEOPLE on earth - you get to talk to them anything under the sun, laugh with them, argue with them but at the end of the day everyone's goal is to make the couple happy. Thanks to the following:
1. K by Cunanan Catering
2. Sir Anthony and Arnold and the rest of the team from East Digital
3. one of the best in her field - top caliber HMUA Ms Kay Rodriguez
4. Bridal Car Manila
5. one of the most adorable hotel in Ortigas - Oakwood Hotel
6. The Real Groove band for blowing the night away
7. the box office of the night, the mobile bar courtesy of Planet Shakers
8. Sound Level for the lights
9. the couple's cool emcee Randy
10. the dependable, helpful and cool management team and security of Blue Leaf
11. the very kind and understanding sacristan of Christ the King Church and also kudos to Kuya Jong and his choir members for providing the church music
and of course,
12. to Frankie De Leon for designing one of the most beautiful gown I've seen in my entire stint as a wedding coordinator - the gown you've made for Dez blew my mind, my heart and my spirit away! Good Job!
This is my happy walk...
Best,

My train ride with Gab (1st time)
After a client meeting in Cubao (meeting for my Sept 25 event at QC Sports Club), I met up with my brother Jeff and my son Gab.
It was such a wonderful feeling for a mother to see excitement and joy from her son for his train ride experience.
He is just ONE of the reasons why the FIRE AND PASSION IN ME is still burning...
He is my HAPPY WALK!

Landslide - My No. 1 Stress Buster Song
- One of the most simple song I've heard is "Landslide" - great rhythm rocking, perfect melody! A very simple country-folk-inspired song where the lyrics describes the metaphor of the physical world and its power to effectively describe a love affair. Truly, Stevie Nicks is a genius in making this song!
I would say this is one fine song ... Whenever I feel blue, whenever I'd like to be relaxed with a smooth/relaxing sound, whenever I'd like to meditate because of all the stress (the hustle and bustle of work) I'd listen to this song (this specific video in You Tube) and everything else falls into place ... a traditional but very effective stress-buster song!
Let me sing my favorite lines in the song:
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older and I'm getting older too
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older and I'm getting older too

4 Stages of Marriage
I found an article from Retrouvaille about the 4 stages of marriage, it was an enlightening article - inspiring and moving. Enjoy!
4 STAGES OF MARRIAGE:
There are 4 Stages of Marriage: (1) Romance, (2) Disillusionment, (3) Misery, and (4) Awakening. Due to the high divorce rate many couples never make it to the 4th Stage of Awakening.
Romance
Most are familiar with the 1st Stage of Romance. Life was so wonderful we couldn't stand to live without the other. Our thoughts often turned to the other when we were not with them. We had fallen in love and knew that this was the person we wanted to spend the rest of our life with. Little differences between us were cute and endearing.
Disillusionment
At some point those little differences started to annoy us. We felt bothered by some of those same things that may have been cute a short time earlier. The self-talk in the back of our mind started wondering why our spouse couldn't be more like us. We had entered into the 2nd Stage of Marriage, the Disillusionment Stage. During the Disillusionment Stage we start to realize that our spouse is not the perfect person that we had envisioned him or her to be. Sometimes, especially if our Romance Stage had been particularly intense, we are hurt deeply by this Disillusionment. We realize that the expectations we had of the perfect marriage were not going to happen. For some this realization is too heart wrenching and they give up on the marriage and divorce during this 2nd Stage of Disillusionment.
Misery
Many people stick with and try to work through their problems during Disillusionment. They seek the counsel of family, friends, clergy and marriage family counselors. Some of these people find the key they are looking for from these resources. Many others continue to struggle and their troubles worsen. Often the marriage deteriorates more deeply due to drug, alcohol or other addictions. Sometimes a third party relationship in the form of extramarital affairs result. As the couple finds themselves in this 3rd Stage of Marriage they know they have entered the Misery Stage.
The Misery Stage is where many couples find themselves considering a marriage separation or divorce. When children are involved this 3rd Stage of Misery is particularly difficult on them. Regardless of whether the couple stays together in misery or divorce the children often believe it is their fault regardless of assurances to the contrary. The effects of divorce on a child cannot be over emphasized. The pain is so intense during the Misery Stage that it is common to only want it to STOP. Much like the pain of a toothache that consumes your whole being you cannot seem to think of anything else besides stopping the pain. One spouse may be pushing hard for the divorce while the other wants to stop divorce.
If the couple ends the marriage at this point and remarry other partners they are more likely to experience the effects of divorce with their second or third spouse.
Awakening
Most people whose marriages end in divorce are not bad people. Rather, they are often people who never learned the proper tools for a happy marriage. This is where Retrouvaille (pronounced re-tro-vi with a long i.) can help. Teams of couples who have experienced all 4 Stages of Marriage present the Retrouvaille program. Instead of giving up they found solutions. In Retrouvaille they learned the tools they needed to live a happy marriage. They learned that marriage does not follow the Romance and Happily Ever After formula portrayed in literature and media. Rather, they learn that there are certain learnable skills, attitudes and tools that they can use to deal with the inevitable problems of the real world.
These skills, attitudes and tools give them what they need to move from the 3rd Stage of Misery into the 4th Stage of Awakening.
Whether you are in the Disillusionment Stage grieving the loss of that magical Romance or if you have moved firmly into the Misery Stage Retrouvaille can give you the marriage help you need to rebuild your marriage. Many tens of thousands of couples have turned their marriages around by giving this program a chance.
Can you save your marriage by attending and working the Retrouvaille program? You will never know until you try. Call the phone number or send an email to the caring Retrouvaille volunteers in your area. Ask them those tough questions that keep nagging at you in the back of your mind. The people answering the phone or responding to your email are people just like you who have been there and pushed through to the 4th Stage of Awakening. They will be able to relate to your feelings of hopelessness and loss. They will do their best to give you the answers you need about this program.
Best,

Tarpaulin Out - Standee and Frame Up Display, now the IN THING
With the popularity of Facebook, Twitter and Multiply ... I would say that the popularity of having a Tarpaulin during one's event is becoming less popular ...
Now is the time for STANDEE and FRAME UP DISPLAY.
Here is a sample standee from one of my couple-clients (Sunny and Elaine - July 9 event at Century Park Hotel)
The great thing about this standee is that guests would also post with it and take pictures, it's as if the couple is with them smiling at every shot they make.
I'd also recommend another option available for one's event - Frame Up Display (One supplier I know who caters to this would be FRAME UP DISPLAYS - add them via Facebook)
Definitely with the frame up display at your event, all your guests would be WOWED by its elegance and unique features - it would display not just one but different pictures of the couple/celebrant via slideshow presentation.
Well, this is just an opinion of a wedding coordinator. I'm not saying that Tarpaulin shouldn't be in one's event anymore, Tarpaulin would still remain in everyone's event for many years to come aside from the fact that it's the most affordable. However, I'd like everyone to have options available for them - tarpaulin, standee or frame up display. This is a free country so anyone can choose what they'd like to have in their event.

Quality Photo Souvenirs from Pose and Print
One of my favorite photobooth team would be Ma'am Therese's POSE AND PRINT ...
The first time I worked with them I guess was sometime in 2008 and thereafter I've continuously worked with them as most of my couples would get their services.
What makes them unique from others?
