Reception Splendor

It was a drizzling day from morning till late afternoon but the memory serving the couple was a delight from heart and another list of memories stored…

It was an early afternoon wedding at Our Lady of Lourdes Church but the air was cool around because of the light drizzles invading the exteriors of the church. It was 1:00 p.m. when the ceremony started and went well with our music added for flavor as always.

There were many guests who came and filled the venue at Villa de Oro. I was mesmerized with the splendor of the place with gold as main color around. It prompted me to take pictures. Half of the venue was intended for the principal sponsors, parents, members of the entourage and special guests.

The moment the couple entered, they danced with our music of “moon river” with fog effects invading the dance floor and bubbles that created a fairy tale come true. They had their second dance in the midst of the program but the father of the bride did the first honor and handed his daughter to the groom after a while with a guest serenading them with the song “hanggang.” The festivity took quite awhile but the enjoyment on their faces were etched and what more happiness but for the couple.

When the affair was done, the drizzles subsided ready for us to leave and another enjoyment from heart. When you love what you’re doing time flies very quickly.

Wedding At The Millenium

Supposedly, the ceremony starts at 4 pm but it was a bit delayed waiting for the bride. It was a Christian wedding and they rented the hall just for the ceremony and they had all the time in the world. Around 5 pm when it started. The hall was filled and the rest of the guests were standing at the back and others at the entrance hallway. The couple wanted a classical music for the procession and when it was time for her to walk the aisle “She” was sang as requested and when she reached the altar we faded out the song. The minister started with meaningful words and everybody listened.

During their vows the love theme from Cinema Paradiso was played very softly and after this a guest sang “Panunumpa,” an apt piece at that moment. When the ceremony was almost done there was a part where the principal sponsors has to sign the contract and another guest singer together with a guitarist performed “I Promised”. It is hymnal and modernly approached. Wonderful rendition. When they were done we did a second piece, “The Love I Found In You”. They really wanted these pieces and we were glad we did the best we could. And really, we prepared the music scores for the couple.

The reception started around an hour after the ceremony and the guests were not aware of the time gap because they were enjoying the place at Maynila Ballroom. If it is your first time to step in this place you will really appreciate the elegance around. The stage is elevated in a circular structure facing the stairway where the cake table is located along with the buffet area. There are no flooded lights but subdued ones making the whole place a romantic place to be.

The celebration was cleanly done and again this was another experience for us sharing the moment with two very special people. We were happy for both because they really enjoyed the night together with lots of guests who came who had much fill.
