The long overdue update...

It's been nine months, again another year has gone by and I barely noticed that long past overdue since the last time I shared some bits and pieces of my very interesting life as an event planner. I really envy those suppliers in the wedding industry who can keep everyone posted and updated with their blogs and testimony.

To start with...

August - was not really a busy month but a rainy month. I had the pleasure to handle a very sentimental wedding. Both are of age, and have their own kids from their first marriage. The groom was above forties and hopelessly romantic. It was obvious how he really longed to have this wedding -finally tying the knot. He serenaded a very meaningful song to both of them during the actual bridal march. I was so touched a happy for the lovely bride. Inspite of heavy rainfall and floods that day -everything was merely perfect.

August 18 - I was excited to attend the special invitation of Makati Shangri-la's Circle of Success. It is a yearly thing they conduct for selected Wedding Planners. Guess what the theme is? "Walt Disney". Two days before, with my hectic schedule I took time to source some for rental costumes, I got one good choice. Hmp. We were requested to report directly for a lunch buffet at the Circles...Well-added calories, inches and pounds again, I swear! There were some familiar faces, some not but the facilitators didn't have the trouble of breaking the ice among the attendees.

From 2pm to 5pm, we had an orientation about the services, packages and facilities of Makati Shangri-la. We were brought to the pastry kitchen and had the experience of making our own creative cupcakes supervised by the two handsome chefs.


We had a 30-minute break to change to our most awaited Walt Disney costumes in time for the cocktails and dinner to be served.



Yours truly, was in a Cruela Devile character and everyone came in funny costumes.

September - This is my birthday month, I celebrated in Boracay with family. This is the time of the year which I really look forward to. This is also a big treat for me and my family in preparation for my absence during the holidays which is December and January.
