Denden and Gerald from Jason Magbanua on Vimeo.
What a great way to spend the first day of February. I watched wedding videos to pass the time and this one warmed my heart.
Maybe because Denden (the bride) is close to my cyber heart. You see, Denden is someone I met through blogging. She and I visited each other’s personal blogs and through these visits, we got to know each other, I “witnessed” her finding her own prince charming and now, she’s married and I can’t be happier for her than I am now.
Denden and Gerald are based in London, UK but …read more
Jenna Bush gets married

I love, love Jenna Bush’s wedding gown. So simple, so classy, so elegant. It was designed and made by Oscar dela Renta (and why not, I suppose they can afford it!). I didn’t realise that Henry Hager was a former White House aide? Isn’t that so romantic? Like Cinderella and Prince Charming or something but their roles are reversed with Jenna being Princess Charming and Henry being, umm, Cinders?
It was arguably America’s wedding of the year, uniting a presidential daughter with a former White House aide – but its details were kept almost entirely private.
Jenna Bush married Henry …read more

I didn’t realise US President George Bush has got a sense of humor. I had a little chuckle at his description of ‘wedding’
Ha ha!
President Bush has started joking about the worst-kept secret in the White House: the May 10 wedding of his daughter Jenna.
“I had to face some very difficult spending decisions and I’ve had to conduct sensitive diplomacy,” Bush said Wednesday. “That’s called planning for a wedding.”
Bush’s line got a laugh from his audience at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
Jenna and her fiance, Henry Hager, have decided to be wed at her parents’ ranch in Crawford, Texas, rather …read more

Did you get married on leap year this year? If so, what made you get married on a leap year date when it only comes around every 4 years?
I searched through the web and found that Bride Karen McDonald and groom Mark Duncan-Caley did just that!
Bride Karen McDonald wore white, her groom, Mark Duncan-Caley, donned a suit and two bridesmaids and two groomsmen attended. But that was where tradition ended for the Christchurch couple.
The couple had a groom-dog, a bride-dog, a flower-dog and page-dog in attendance and chose yesterday — February 29 — to marry because it was a …read more

If you want to have a ‘unique’ wedding and you’re comfortable with your body, why not wed in the nude? This of course saves you and your spouse to be expenses in the gown and tux department.

Kelly and Grant go through with it and walk down the aisle completely nude.But will Grant make it through their vows without getting too … ummm … ‘excited’?
If it was you, would you go through it? Would you exchange your …read more

Wedding with a Cause

Love does bloom in unexpected places. Who would’ve thought that the love that Jay and Eena shared for charitable causes such as the Gawad Kalinga Foundation whose aim is to build a nation without slums would bring them to the altar?
The two met while helping Bicolanos rebuild their lives and regain their dignity after a series of calamities devastated the region.
To show their commitment to each other and the Gawad Kalinga mission, the two got married in a GK-built chapel and on the much raved-about date, 7-7-07.
They chose the date not because it’s believed to be fortuitous but because …read more

If you’re a Filipino who hasn’t been living under a rock all your life, you’d know who Lea Salonga is. If you’re a fan of Broadway musical hits, you’d know who Lea Salonga is. Lea was the original star of the hit Broadway musical, Miss Saigon.

Every moment now returns
For a while, seen or heard
How each mem’ry softly burns
Facing you who brings me new …read more
