Got Our Final Date!
Right after we got engaged last Dec. 2008, we knew we wanted a May wedding.
Here's the list of the reasons why:
- This month has lots of great and unforgettable memories for us during our 5 years relationship.
- We had our civil wedding on May 25, 2009 (this year).
- Kaogma Festival - it is a two weeks celebration in Naga City, usually starts from the third to the last week of May. It would be so much fun for all the guest and visitors coming from abroad and Manila. At least they have something to do after our wedding and they'd surely enjoy their stay in my hometown. :)
- May 15 - his bday!
- May 17 - Norway Constitution Day (I can imagine all of my Norwegian guests waving their flag in the Philippines!)
- May 22 matches the availability of all the suppliers and venues we want.
We would love to make it on exact the same date as our civil wedding but May 25 next year is Tuesday :(. We need a weekend date to make sure that everyone could come and have fun on our BIG day.
Now I'm working on our STD's (Save the Dates) but I'm having a hard time doing it coz of my busyness in school plus everything I need and wants for it is in the Philippines. Our target is to send it all out before xmas but it seems we're running out of time. But, we'll see! :)
On top of this, we've also booked our venues, videographer, coordinator and im still waiting for my gown sketch from my couturier. As much as I wanted to be a hands on bride, we've decided to get a coordinator to fix almost everything for our wedding since it is almost impossible for us to take care of everything while we're both here in Sweden.
Anyways, that's it for now. More updates on our wedsite. I plan to release it and reveal it to my family, friends and invited guest after New Year. Hopefully it's all done and ready by then.
Ciao! xoxo
