I am happy that my husband and I were the ones who shouldered the "big ticket" items of our wedding 12 years ago. Apart from not burdening our parents or other family members, it certainly made us feel good that we seemed to be starting off our life together on the right foot - that is, being responsible enough to fend for ourselves without resorting to borrowing money just to be able to show that we had a grand wedding. Also, I agree that what matters more really is the life after the wedding ceremony.<br /><br />Pwede namang magsaya nang hindi mababaon sa utang. Di kailangang bongga ang kasalan. Mas importante ang basbas ng Diyos sa pagsasama kaysa sa magarbong party para sa mga kamag-anak at kaibigan. Kung kaya, okay lang... pero kung hindi, huwag ipilit.PInkyhttp://chinois972.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-13978813362220253692010-03-05T08:22:27.973+03:002010-03-05T08:22:27.973+03:00Siguro depende talaga sa life style ng magpapakasa...Siguro depende talaga sa life style ng magpapakasal.

It was ironic, but it was our decision to keep it as secret and practicable as possible as we value money so much during that time. But we have our honeymoon in Baguio, a friend of mine has offered us his house for a week stay.<br /><br />If me and my wife were given a chance to afford a grand wedding, we could have planned it, but we were not given that chance. This July we'll be celebrating our 20th year of happy marriage, blessed with 2 wonderful kids plus a daughter in-law and 2 grand children in addition to my growing family.<br /><br />If God permits us to live long enough, plano namin "ulit" magpakasal as a renewal of vow on 2015 - our 25th wedding anniversary, and I'll send you an invitation. <br /><br />God bless you.The Popehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11212065427632311604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988840146314740773.post-88800900178040541042010-03-03T19:46:35.243+03:002010-03-03T19:46:35.243+03:00Naku, sobrang mahal nga ngayon magpakasal.
