i didn't know what to expect! i was just invited to be a bride's maid about a couple of months before, and after that i put my mind off the event until our family received the official invitation to the wedding. The couple were to be wed at the Assumption Church near my Alma Mater in high school - Davao City National High School. The reception was at the BS Inn hotel - which also served as our behind-the-scenes room before the wedding ceremony.

It was a real day off. It was a day deviant to all my regular days. IT was a day of reunion for my family in Davao and for all our distant relatives, esp. my grandma Linda's side. At first i was shy, but there is actually joy in making new friends. i was really pleased to get to know more my cousins, Shairah & Gienessa. We did selfies together and we really had fun chatting with each other, enjoying each other's company. Furthermore, i was really surprised to see my crush! Gosh! His look was still arresting, although he looked more mature now, more serious, more independent, wiser. Not that i'm saying he looked older.. He actually looked more handsome. Hehehehe!! And he really drowned the crowd - the way he moves and the way his eyes tell stories - he is really different from the rest.. Oh my... But you should know, he is already married, you know! No, it's not what you're thinking, it's not the groom i am talking about.. Heheh..

| i love this pic! It summarizes everything about the wedding! How kuya Jesriel is behind and beside ate Cherry in their every step. How kuya Jesriel shows how much he loves her in always looking after ate Cherry's wedding gown train.. How ate Cherry looks so beautiful and so happy in one of the happiest moments in their life! |
It was indeed a lovely and an inspiring wedding.. :) My favorite part was the couple's message for everyone and for each other while Juris' version of
Forevermore was playing in the background.. They thanked everyone who supported them not only on their wedding day but every step of the way. They recognized each other's weaknesses and shortcomings but they are confident and are convinced that their love for each other is still greater than all the hindrances. i am so blessed to witness such a God-fearing couple respond to the call of marriage. :)
with our model, Shairah.. :)
It was a simple wedding, but it was really special to both kuya Kesriel & ate Cherry and to everyone who witnessed the exchange of vows and the sweet kisses... :)
May this be just the start of many wonderful days ahead together! May they be blessed with the unity of family and the richness of love and virtues. :)
Love is truly beautiful.
P.S. The children were so cute.... :)
