Wedding Photobook

Image
 Our 100-page 8.5 x 11” hardcover Photobook finally arrived. I was able to put in all of our wedding photos (the photobook has 100 pages!). I think it’s cheaper compared to having all the photos printed and buying a photo album. The paper and the photo quality are great. It was easy and fun to layout. I just dropped the photos I want to include for each page, then picked from their suggested layouts. You can also manually layout if you have the skill and the time.

Marry Me (2022)

Image
In Marry Me (2022), huge pop superstar Kat Valdez (Jennifer Lopez) is set to marry her fiancé during a concert, where they are supposed to perform their hit song together, entitled (you guess it) Marry Me. Minutes before the ceremony, Kat finds out her fiancé cheated on her, and decides to instead get married to a stranger in the crowd: math teacher Charlie Gilbert (portrayed by Owen Wilson). The plot is very similar to Notting Hill (the crème de la crème of rom-com), and Marry Me is nowhere near as witty and delightful as Notting Hill. But Owen Wilson’s quiet and awkward charm just makes him so likable. His character is not wildly romantic—he just says yes to J-Lo’s character to help a person in the midst of a nervous breakdown. He is reasonable, pragmatic, and a downright nice guy, which makes you want to root for him. As for J-Lo’s character, well, she’s just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her. Unlike Notting Hill’s Anna Scott. Anna Scott was a jerk. Watch Ma

Wedding Photos

Our photographer just turned over all the edited photos from the wedding day. We are very grateful to our parents, our ninongs and ninangs, the bridesmaids and groomsmen, family, and friends who virtually and physically celebrated the day with us. To those who attended, thank you for being there considering it was at the height of the Omicron surge. Thank you for your generous gifts and warm wishes. We are forever grateful.

My walk down the aisle

The weather was perfect, the church was just so beautiful, the flowers were exquisite, and the musicians were playing the musical score from my all-time favorite film (Love Theme from Cinema Paradiso) perfectly. I couldn't stop myself from crying when I saw my parents. When we reached the altar, Eric was looking at me and holding my hand even more lovingly than he normally does. My bridal march was as magical as I imagined it would be.
