Janice and Al's Wedding

It was Janice and Al's wedding yesterday. Janice is such a beautiful and elegant bride. The church they chose suit them perfectly because San Sebastian Church is soooo grand!!! They wanted this church because of its history. It's the only church in Manila "made of steel frames and panels...that were manufactured in Belgium". They enjoyed their Europe trip so much that they wanted their wedding to have a touch of something Europe. That is why they chose this church. Actually, the bride initially wanted a garden wedding but since priests don't marry couples outside the church they opted to have their reception at a garden instead, at The Orchidarium beside Luneta Park.

Joema wasn't able to come to the wedding so my "date" for the night was Steve.

During the reception, Janice and Al's love story was told to the guests. And theirs is like no other. They've been together for 12 years and half of it was spent away from each other. After college, Janice went to the States to study and finish her Masters degree for two years and then she worked in New York for three years. In 2002 she went back to Manila but it was Al's turn to leave to finish his Masters in Belgium. When he finally came back, they started preparing for their wedding. So nice noh! They stood the test of time and distance.

The other couples that night: Penny and Pao

Charline and Allan
