30 Things that happened to me this month (Just one though)


(For Spetember 16)


30 Things that happened to me this month (Just one though)
I can’t remember everything that happened to me this month. (Signs of aging) 30 things is a lot to remember. Fortunately I just have to pick one and write about it.
Just this September 10, 2015, I attended the wedding of my Tito (elder brother of mama) as one of the bridesmaids. I admit it was one of a classy and expensive kind of wedding. The ceremony was held at the church near Lee Plaza, I’m not sure about its name, but it was nice. The church was air conditioned. The reception was held at Bethel Guest House.
Before the wedding, the bride-to-be of my tito was really busy preparing every little thing for their wedding. Though I seldom go to their house, I can see her posts in Facebook like their pre-nup pictorials, their gowns, the souvenirs and the like.
I went early to Hotel Essencia, the morning of their wedding day for the make-up “chuchu”. In their room were 2 photographers and 1 man who was taking the video. The bridesmaids had one make-up artist and one who was in charge of our hair. On the other hand, only one was doing the thing with Tita (the make-up and the hair), but he was one good make-up artist. He was the one who handled me during Miss Bindoy. To add, he’s also expensive. J
While we were at the church, I had many realizations. I had mixed emotions. The priest was good. His sermon was really moving. Though I imagined what would my own wedding would look like, but I wasn’t able to help myself from thinking about the words of the priest. I’ll just give the gist of what he said. Most couple today are more concerned with the “wedding”--- the preparations and everything. They forgot that it’s not just a wedding, it’s a marriage, a commitment that you need to take care of the rest of your lives together.
Why I’m saying is because I just figured out what my wedding would be like. I just want it to be simple but unforgettable. A wedding is every girls dream but the real thing is not about the whole wedding ceremony. It’s the feeling that you get when you’re walking down the aisle and you’re seeing the man that you’ll be spending the rest of your life with---now that’s what I’m talking about. It doesn’t need to be expensive. All you need is love and commitment to love and cherish each other for the rest of your lives together.
