There was a Disney princess moment when Sam's silhouette beneath the balcony was shown

Sam's lovely gown was by Inno Sotto (one of the principal sponsors) and the appliques were really lovely.

Their vows were so cute! I'm sure someone's going to upload the same-day edit video soon.

The mirrored tables and faux ghost chairs allowed all the colorful lights to transform the venue into something fun and whimsical

The wedding had a Star Wars theme but it wasn't overkill. Tiny details on the entourage's accessories + these guys escorting the couple into the ballroom added just the right amount of playfulness. Paolo's always been a Star Wars fan so I sort of expected that.

When YouTubers unite! Riz finally met AJ Rafael and had a fangirl moment when he admitted that he was subscribed to her.

delicious sit-down dinner

I don't have enough photos of people on stage, but it was like a huge concert the entire night! The guest list was comprised of all the great OPM artists. The reception was just pure entertainment.  Rockeoke followed and lasted til midnight.

I never get excited for weddings, but this was something else. I've always looked up to Pao and Sam as a couple and watching them tie the knot almost brought tears to my eyes (which, trust me, rarely happens). During the six years they've been together it became more evident that they were made for each other so I was so happy that the wedding turned out to be memorable for everyone! They deserve each other and I'm glad that I was able to witness this occasion. Their relationship's always revolved around their faith, so their love will for sure be one that transcends. 


Sinulog 2011- Friday & Saturday (part 1)



I was super excited for the weekend since I've been waiting to get away from schoolwork for a very loooong time... Sadly, Pia and I ended up bringing our homework to Cebu, since we had a presentation scheduled an hour after arriving from our flight back to Manila... But we knew that wouldn't stop us from having an awesome time!!!

Arrived Friday night and Pia and I decided to hit Penthouse first. I couldn't find any of my friends there so we headed to Vudu. That place was just scorching hot so we went out after 5 minutes, talked to some people and then went back to Penthouse. Finally we found Mia, Holly and the rest so we joined them in their table.

Stolen photos coming up... Sorry for the quality... I just grabbed them from Mia's Facebook. :P

On Friday I invited my high school batch mates for a small birthday celebration over lunch at our place. Mum hired 2 chefs to prepare Japanese and Filipino food for us! And oh, we had some Rico's Lechon, too! My guests couldn't stop raving about it. I think I'm never tempted to taste it since I grew up in the same neighborhood where the lechon is made and I'm pretty sure there was some lechon in every party I went to in Cebu... So, yeah. :P

Looks pretty tasty from the photos, right??? My guests didn't even need sauce for this!




We had dinner at the Gustavian...

It got extremely hot inside Vudu (was super sweaty already and Pia couldn't breathe!) so we decided to head over to Penthouse. Took Pao, Sam and Echo with us and met up with Sam, PJC and the rest of my beau's friends!

It was PACKED. Thank you so much to Alyssa for ALWAYS helping us out!!!

I was taking photos and videos for my beau. Tried to update him with the Sinulog happenings through WhatsApp. It's his favorite time of the year- I think he even loves it 10x more than Christmas.

I underestimated the amount of attention Echo would get from people inside the club... Sammi even said "Kawawa talaga!" but he is always so nice to people asking for photos. I really can't imagine how he can survive this on a day-to-day basis. LOL

Oh yes, someone just had to be a photobomber :))

Issa + Andi
We asked Echo if Issa could have a pic with Andi since she is the biggest fan of the show Agua Bendita. Doesn't Issa look like an actress, too??? They're both so pretty!
