We Are Family

May 23, 2005 - Hotel Preps

We woke up around 7 am and my sisters and I went to Westin’s health club for sauna and jacuzzi. We had so much fun and we were relaxed. Nakakatawa lang kasi sa sobrang enjoy ko, my nail polish went off. hahaha! Now I’ve got a problem. Who will do my horrible nails, a few hours before the wedding? Clarice told me to call Eddie and ask him if he could fix my nails. That I did. Sobrang bait ni Eddie. He told me not to worry about a thing for he will take care of it. ^_^

We had a heavy breakfast at Jollibee in Blue wave. Talagang dun lang kami palagi for it is the place nearest Westin. We went back just in time for Mang Boy’s arrival. Ang aga nya dumating. He brought the bouquets. I sooo love my flowers. Ang ganda ganda. Just the way I want it to be. I didn’t quite like how the ento’s flowers turned out. Maybe because it is not what I expect it to be. Nonetheless, okay naman kasi hindi naman pangit. He also brought a long a lot of free loose petals. Maganda din yung bridal car flowers. They will go straight away to the KH (church). I also told them that the vases for the centerpiece were already at the reception venue. They told me not to worry kasi pagagandahin daw nila ng husto yung wedding namin.

I then went down to the reception dapat kasi early check-in kami dun sa room na poolside view. Nakakainis talaga ang Westin. Ang bagal nila. Mga 10 pa daw magiging available yung room. By 9:30 am dumating na yung team ni Eddie. 3 sila. Parang andami naming me-make-upan. That’s the beauty of having a Monday wedding. Walang kaagaw so nabe-baby ng supplier. ^_^ Nakalipat din kami ng room pero 10 am na. Sa hallway, we saw Clarice’s team and Archie. Yung team ni Clarice naka uniform pa. Nakakatuwa black and pink. Nakakatuwa rin kasi magkakilala na pala coord namin and the first thing they said to each other was “ikaw?”. hahaha! O diba ang galing?

Eddie and his team immediately started to work on us. While he was doing my make-up, his niece Marina was fixing my devastated nails. Norman and Gemma magical’s hands were on my mom and sisters. Here are our pictures while we are on the road to being pretty.

Morning was at the room downstairs with my dad. Bonding to the max sila. After Archie has finished taking photos of the wedding stuff, he went down to document my groom’s preps. Hindi talaga kami nagkita all the while. He wanted to see his bride only when she walks down the aisle na raw. Hay naku! That’s Morning for you. He loves a flair of drama. Anyway, ako yung excited na makakita dun sa groom. I didn’t even had a glimpse on what he will be wearing. Ayaw din nya kasi. Surprise daw. Pero I must admit na sha and pinakagwapong groom ever. (walang kokontra!!!!) Eto ang evidence…

Time flew too quickly. Around 12 noon mejo worried na ako kasi hindi pa nakakabalik sila Clarice who went out to buy lunch. Yun naman pala, naharang sila sa baba ng Westin. Kainis!!! Ayaw nila ipa-akyat yung food. Andami pa naman papakainin. 21 kaming lahat sa hotel nun. It was really embarassing to the suppliers kasi late na hindi pa sila kumakain. But, i really made my mind to let go. Bahala na. I’m sure Abie and Clarice can make a way. At 1 pm they had finally managed to bring up food for 10 people. The rest had to go at the parking lot to eat. Hiyang-hiya pa rin ako and super inis sa Westin. Ganun ba talaga na hindi pwedeng magpasok sa hotel ng food? Pero kahit na anong inis ko, smile pa rin kasi ang ganda ng gawa ni Eddie. Mas maganda pa sa kesa sa prenups make-up. The color suited me well and he was able to highlight my features well.

We all had a quick lunch and pictorial galore na after. I will admit that I really practiced how to smile. Sayang kasi kung hindi maganda ang pictures. Na-enjoy namin yung picture taking because Archie and the gang are so funny. Patawa ng patawa. Since the lobby is under repair, we went to the garden and poolside. Buti na lang hindi mainit nun makulimlim so perfect yung weather for pictorials. Yung mga magagandang kuha eh dun sa garden ng Westin. At first akala ko nakakahiya kasi madami-dami ring tao dun. Nakatingin sila. But what the heck, I’ll only get to do this once in a lifetime lang naman di ba? So I waved back to the kids looking at me. Nakakatuwa yung mga kids kasi tuwang tuwa silang makakita ng bride. ^_^

Around 3:30 we are on our way to the KH (church). My heart is thomping wildly while travelling. Para pang uulan kasi biglang dumilim. However, I have faith and trust and all these things i leave unto God’s hands.
