happily ever afters

Weddings are beautiful things. The start of happily-ever-afters. The realization of every little girls dreams. Being able to witness the union of couples who can't take their eyes off each other with such dreamy satisfaction, well, I can't help but be mesmerized as well. 

I've been to two (2) weddings within the past month.

JC+Eric
On November 23, 2013, Joan Cecilia, or JC as we fondly call her since our elementary days, tied the know with 5-year boyfriend Eric. It was such a beautiful affair, one that will most likely stay on with the couple and the guests for a while. I've known JC since we were 9. These days, she goes by the name Mrs. Casila. #kilig. Teehee. I couldn't be happier for her. Looking forward to a blissful marriage blessed with lots of little JCs and little Erics.

My dear JC, We are now adults. It's funny. Living the adult world. When at one time, we were most worried who wins singing competition (I was sixth! In a competition of six contestants. LOL) You were always, always on top. Your unfaltering beautiful voice belting sweet sweet songs now for Eric, your own Prince Charming! My congratulations to both of you. May God be the center of your marriage. Trust always in His awesome grace and love for you.

Allan + Kate

I may have known the couple a little over three (3) years. But the love emanating from both of them is remarkable and it overflows. Both love the outdoors, fueling the bond between them. Similar activities that pumps the adrenaline, also shows how they take care of each other.
I may not be there when they became a couple, but love is sure profound, one cannot begin to explain how it starts and how it will last. I'm confident that their love will. It stood tall and proud, it stood when it was long distance. To Korea with love from Singapore.

Their theme reggae shows their love as anything but conventional. It may start as such, them being officemates, but turned around when one took the road to Singapore, and the other to Korea. With the best of intentions -- providing for the future. Sure enough, this wedding was grand, held a long way off at The Stilts in Calatagan, Batangas. A long three-hour ride away from Manila. Good friends showed up, dressed to impress. But more so, to convey the happy congratulations and good will for the couple.

I'm so blessed to have witnessed the marriage of these two. Plus the sweet composition of Allan to Kate. I could not stop grinning.
Congratulations, guys! I pray for your constant celebration of joy in your hearts. God bless your union.
