#DexLizWedding

"Siya talaga ang ultimate crush ko nung high school." -Liz pertaining to her now husband, Dex.

HashtagDexLizWedding is probably the most fun and lovely wedding I've been to. Not only did I knew both of them since our high school days but we've remained friends even after we graduated, went to different universities and started working! As a matter of fact, they will probably look familiar to you if you've been reading this blog for a while because of the many occasions we've celebrated and places we've traveled in the past.

So after n years of being together (seven years ba Liz?) and more than a year of preparation, the love birds' dream wedding finally came true. And I am more than honored to be a part of their most-awaited day.

Liz and Dex chose the beautiful Caleruega Chapel in Batangas to tie the knot last May 18, 2013.

The bride and her dad lovingly made this wooden plaques for days that added charm and reminder to the simple yet tasteful decor of the chapel.

The invites said that the wedding will commence at exactly 2pm so anticipating that traffic will be horrible from Tagaytay City, we made sure to leave the hotel at least 30 minutes earlier. Good thing almost all guests thought the same way too.

The groom texting his bride:
"Bilisan mo!"

Here comes the bride..

The officiating priest entertained us with his wittiful insights on love, marriage and life and even sang two songs as a way of conveying his message to the couple. Along with their family and close friends, I laughed and I cried when they exchanged their vows for one another.

The moment we've all been waiting for -- "You may now kiss the bride."

After the pictorial, we drove back to Tagaytay City for the wedding reception held at Villa Ibarra.

I know for a fact how Liz loves Hanson (I know, very 90's!) but marching to the tune of MMMBop was unexpected and very entertaining!

Food and drinks were overflowing. The buffet was very organized, the food were delicious and the waiters were very attentive the guests' needs. Kudos to Villa Ibarra team!

After the not-so-conventional program, which was not surprising as the couple is quite extraordinary themselves, the band started playing party songs and all of us were on our feet dancing the night away! It was indeed a fun and truly magical day not only for the couple but to us, their friends who have witnessed how they have loved and cared for each other all these years.

Love is patient, love is kind. 
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 
Love never fails. -Corinthians 13:4-8a

Congratulations to both of you! Seeing you guys together made me realize that great love really exists and patience is the key. *wink* Hope to see a new update on Facebook that your weeks of honeymooning here and abroad finally paid off! And sana nga kambal para twice the fun agad.

P.S. Kayo na talaga ang peg ko for life! See you guys soon!
