By | Bridal | One Comment

When we arrived we had a welcome kit with so many goodies. Then after the wedding, we came home with so many many giveaways and souvenirs………but most important that we bring back are the memories of a beautiful wedding of our dear friends, Gil and Christine.  Thank you for sharing your special day with us.  Christine, we love you already! And to Gil, We are very happy that you have finally found your better half to share the rest of your life with, We love you!

These photo booths seem to be the “in” thing now at parties and events..

This one was a bit different from the others I have seen….

When the photo comes out – it comes out in one piece with two parts, they cut it in the middle to split the two parts – one part goes to an album.  They stick it on the album and then you write your dedication.  I LOVE the idea!! The other part goes to you as your souvenir and you can use it as a bookmark! 🙂

crazy friends making crazy poses 🙂

Christine told me that she made all the place cards herself!! Printed them, cut them and put them on the stones. Wow!!  Good thing I kept ours 🙂

In the reception, before entering, you are given this which is already their giveaway as well.  It has your name and tells you your table number

It was a giveaway given by the sisters in law – Tessa, Alexie and Mara.  It was their gift to Gil and Christine. We used ours right away when we went to the beach the next day!  Very practical and useful giveaway!

A video made by Christine with her singing in it when she was 8 years old..how cute!! 🙂

 

 Sharing the video that we prepared for our wedding… to thank everyone for being there, especially the most important people in our lives.

This is set against a song I recorded of me singing when I was 8 years old.

They danced!! 🙂

To wrap it all up, here is Jason’s video.  Taken from his website:  Gil and Christine 

Jason :  ” I felt that incident hampered us from giving a 100% percent to the edit and so the following days after, we distilled the fantastic speeches given at the reception (especially Christine’s Dad) and created this highlights piece for them. Surprise Christine!”

As usual, a great wedding video!  He made this on the same day and showed it in the Reception – his computer crashed but he was still able to come up with a great video

 No wonder Gil was in tears ( aside from other more important reasons ) when Christine was walking down the aisle…. I was crying also listening to the wedding march song…the words are so beautiful!! Play it while going through the photos 🙂

I borrowed this photo from a friend of Christine, Arnel Manalang.  James got out of his seat as groomsman, to tell me to go and take a photo of Gil crying… by the time I tried to catch the moment, I missed it!!  Thanks to Arnel for capturing that moment!

Mañana Mexican Cuisine, Boracay

By | Foodie, Travel | One Comment

This place was ecommended by our brother Quito and Gil and Christine.  After a heavy breakfast at Discovery Shores, we decided to have a late and light lunchmanana1.JPGmanana2.JPGmanana3.JPGp1070859.JPGsorry about the soup pagep1070860.JPGp1070861.JPGp1070862.JPGp1070863.JPGp1070864.JPGp1070865.JPG

We had the Mañana Combination. YUMMY!  I guess when you are only two, you don’t get to try many dishes.  That is when I miss my big family of 18 where we order and order and share and share 🙂p1070874.JPG

Real Coffee and Tea Cafe, Boracay

By | Foodie, Travel | 9 Comments

Benjo told us to go here last November but we did not have time.  But this trip, we made sure we went.  Thanks also to Gil and Christine for telling us about it.  We love it!!

 For those who have not been here yet, be careful not to miss it, it is inside the street and not on the beach front strip

dsc_5274.JPGdsc_5276.JPG

The owner, Lee, was there with her two dogs.  Lee is half Italian and half American 

dsc_5282.JPG

I love that the place is so native!! So Filipino! 

dsc_5299.JPGdsc_5279.JPGdsc_5294.JPGdsc_5293.JPG

I like the kitchen, it is just a simple set up and it looks just like a home kitchen 

dsc_5297.JPG

Oh my gosh! oh my gosh!! Freshly baked calamansi muffins just came out of the oven when we arrived!!! WOW!! This is what they are famous for.  You can also take home in boxes of 6, 9 and 12.  We did not get anymore because we were overweight already 🙂  besides, it is best to eat it there and have the whole experience! 

dsc_5285.JPG

Love the menu!!  

dsc_5291.JPG

We asked for their best seller breakfast and the girl said the Jacks Omelette – but since we found 3 eggs too much even to share, we got the Jack A Lean.  LOVED IT!!!!!! We never had an omelette with pesto.  Make sure to try it with PESTO!  I thought I would not like it since I am not a big fan of tuna, but this omelette was really good! 

dsc_5304.JPG

It went so well with that DELICIOUS TOAST on the side spread with mango jam!! YUMMY!!! 

dsc_5305.JPG

Look at the filling oozing out of the omelette!! 

dsc_5306.JPGdsc_5303.JPG

Real Coffee 

dsc_5301.JPG

and of course we had to have the calamansi muffin 

dsc_5296.JPG

This is how we ate it- we rip the outer shell of the muffin because it is toasted and crunchy!  🙂 

dsc_5300.JPGdsc_5292.JPG

Definitely we will be back to try the others!
