Must update
It’s been 9 months since our last post. We have yet to write Paula’s birth story here. She will be 8 months in 3 days. She’s a big girl now… She makes us unbelievably happy.

Featured Supplier Profile: Mallory Cosio
This woman personifies hard work and definitely commands the attention of her audience when she hosts! We’ve been told she assumes a different persona onstage but we were blown away watching her weave her magic during the reception program. If ever you read this Mal - we were glad to have you as a host on the wedding and we know you overextended to accommodate us. When we’ve settled...

A versatile member of Patrick Rosas’ artistic team and easily the best-looking make-up artist in the business - just look at the photos of the bride (from the prenup movie posters to the actual wedding day) for evidence of the man’s skills.

The crew responsible for the wedding on-site video that moved everyone and captured exactly the warm love that was prevalent that day. We’re literally counting the days until the actual edited video comes out. Giddy.

Friends,
We’d like to thank everyone who braved Panay Room 303’s heat, patiently cooperated having their poster shoot done and celebrated Mak’s 28th although belatedly. We know the movie posters will turn out great. As for the personal pics we took that day, we’ll post them as soon as they get uploaded on the multiply site.
More detailed thank you’s:

Open bar or sparkling wine-jack daniels-beer?

Our Story
Several lifetimes ago, I was a college junior at the University of Sto. Tomas, taking up architecture. After two years of blah, I was determined to make this a defining college year and I would not disappoint myself. I had a map to success and was fairly convinced I would get to my destination without skipping a beat. As they say, how do you make God laugh… I forget. That summer, I was a part-time...
