THE DAY has finally arrived...

...i'm finally married with my one true love and i couldn't be happier...

*****watch out for wedding kwentos, pics, supplier ratings and my NEW blog!*****

My Last Day as a Miss...

I went to SM again (alone - It's been ages since I did that!) this morning to look for my "dressing" outfit and to shop for more clothes...

Spent the entire morning just enjoying the company of myself... but got bored too soon... =D

--------------------------------
--------------------------------

...Jon n I agreed not to see each other or even just talk to each other (we text naman -- hirap eh!) 'til our wedding... (For 8 years, we have been together for almost everyday, that i don't even remember the last time when we didn't see each other in a day... )

I'll definitely miss him... but it will be worth it... =)

Woke up early for the 2nd consecutive day (whoa, that's a feat! :D) for more wedding preps...

• printed and made more placecards
• made butterfly confetti from orange and aqua blue japanese paper
• we're finally through packing the souvenirs!

...got a call from San Agustin if i wanted a garden aisle... Miss Belen informed me that there are 3 couples (including us) who are to be married on Thursday and we could just chip in for its cost. Jon n I went there after lunch to pay for our share.

Then we went straight to Bess' shop to pick up my gown! :) I can't wait to wear it!!! He gave me a free pouch but it was just too simple for me so we decided to look for another one na lang since we're headed to SM Southmall after.

...And i found the perfect bag which would go well with my gown and shoes! =)

And these other things:

• belt for Jon
• pins for the prosperity dance
• white hankies ;)
• oil control films
• hairpiece for my 'do

Before we went home, I told Jon that i wanted to buy him a watch for our 8th year anniversary... fortunately, his search was not long... we found this...

And i'm starting to pack my things for the hotel... and the hunnymoon... which was a very nice surprise he told me days ago... So excited!!! =D

Although I already slept at 2am last night( or is it this morning?), I woke up early today coz i feel there's still a lot of work to be done...

• made ALL placecards...

The sun is shining! Yipee! (I hope it will continue to shine til next week...)

We're meeting with the two hosts again later today to discuss the flow of the program.

And then, we'll rush off to our badminton game which is scheduled at 8pm.

6...

...Stayed at Jon's place the entire stormy day just browsing the net, managing our finances, and doing these... We're halfway through already (we're making 100 pieces)!

Oh..., and btw, I got teary-eyed when Jon showed me his cabinet... he already cleared a lot of his things and made space for my clothes and stuff... Even his dresser was ready too... Upon seeing it, all i could do was just hold and hug him tightly...

...In a few days, I will be "HOME".
