This and That

Everyday Aleq and I try to do something for the wedding, whether it's just to discuss an idea or go over the budget. We have work and bills and other things to think about, and we know we have so many months ahead of us, but we don't want to waste a single minute being unproductive. Time flies by so fast and we don't want to be left cramming. Here are a few things worth documenting wedding-wise as of late.


This is the Our Happy Day Google doc. It's an Excel file that my friend Geli sent to me that has been incredibly helpful to us. It's the one she and her fiance Pat are using, and she actually customized it for me and Aleq, which we thought was very sweet. It has tabs for the timeline, to-dos, guest list, sponsors, suppliers, on-going expenses, and a budget checklist! How cool is that? I am currently tweaking it further to indulge my obsessive-compulsive tendencies.

I recently dug out my keepsakes from the most recent weddings I attended. I made sure to keep things like invitations, photobooth pictures, thank you cards, and misalettes to serve as references for my own wedding. Seeing these actually helped me figure out what I wanted. 

Our First Wedding Fair - The Before I Do Bridal Expo

We survived our first wedding fair! Aleq and I bravely ventured into the world of wedding suppliers earlier, when we attended the Before I Do Bridal Expo at the Megatrade Hall in Megamall. As it was our first time, we didn't know what to expect, so we just dived in.
