2 Weddings 1 Weekend

Wedding No. 1 -

Last week, we attended 2 weddings and a birthday party. As in all weddings, dress code was formal. However, I was dismayed when I tried on my formal dresses. None of them fit me comfortably. Ugh. After a quick trip to the mall, I bought a gray dress that looked passable.

Two days before the wedding, I tried the dress on again and found out it easily showed wet marks (back, under arms, etc). Disgusting. So I went back to the mall to get me a decent looking outfit and ended up with this....

Nope, it's not a dress nor a gown. It's just a dressy top I wore with a pair of really dark skinny pants.

Oh well.....

Anyway, here are my sons, looking dapper in long sleeved polos...

Wedding No. 2 -

The first wedding was evidently lavish and expensive. The guests totalling 1000 were mostly the who's who of Cebu. But to me, wedding number two was better in all respects. It was intimate and all the details were just impeccable... decor, food, music, programme. The works. Of course you can't go wrong with food from Abaca. It was just perfect. And to think, preparation was only less than two weeks....

Ah weddings... I pray both couples have a blessed union full of love, happiness, and little kiddies. :)

  2. Lovely top! Liking the colour. If you didn't mention it, i'd assume it's a long gown.

    Hi M!

    Hi Jo!
    Awww. How generous of you to say that! :D Thanks ;)

    Hi Sexy Mom!
    My 2 sons are growing up really fast… Yes, I also figured, gray would have been too morose of a color.
