Getting married.
penny July 1st, 2008
Yups, ika nga sa nakalagay sa header dito sa janep, ikakasal na kami!
Most of you know already anyway, since we’ve sent out ’save the date’ e-cards as early as February this year. I thought I’d write about it now, ‘coz I don’t think I have.
We’re working on the details still, but hopefully we can send out our formal invites to our friends in the next couple of months. Needless to say (but I’ll say it anyway) it’s tricky to work out details in wedding planning when you’re in our situation. Ajay and I talk to our folks on the phone and chat online as often as we can, to plan and execute wedding stuff. It’s reeeeeeally hard. But we’re happy that it’s going all right.
Songs
penny March 9th, 2008
I thought I’d document our song choices as they evolve. I’ve created a playlist in my multiply page as well.
Keith Urban - Making Memories Of Us
James Blunt - Shine On
The Cure - Lovesong
Binocular - You
Jude - Everything I Own
Joe Cocker - Up Where We Belong
Phil Collins - A Groovy Kind Of Love
*Wonderful Tonight (untimed)
*When I See You Smile (untimed)
(instrumental) Canon
(instrumental) Looking Through the eyes of love
I’ve had the thought of making the music all-OPM… but it doesn’t work so well with the string ensemble. It’s a waste to not let them play the lovely foreign tunes as well.
But then, maybe if we were to make an all-OPM mixed CD, they’d have these songs:
Lea Salonga - With You I’m Born Again
Rey Valera - Kahit Maputi Na Ang Buhok Ko
Rivermaya - Hinahanap-hanap Kita
South Border - Love Of My Life
Dimsum - Thank You For Your Love
True Faith - Wala Nang Hahanapin Pa
Parokya ni Edgar - Your Song
APO Hiking Society - When I Met You
Brownman Revival - Ikaw Lang Ang Aking Mahal
Francis M - Lab Song
Kitchie Nadal - Pag-ibig
Bridesmaids: Coco Myles designs.
penny March 2nd, 2008
I found designer Coco Myles’ website, where she has a tool for designing your own dress. I played with it for a while and came up with the following:
A very simple dress design I can imagine for the bridesmaids. This is in pink. (the closese Coco had in her palette to rose)
In A-line skirt and sweetheart neckline, with some beadwork.
This is in wine color, with a pink sash (optional). Strapless, and straight long cut.
The same cut and color, with a longer sash and a tea skirt cut.
Favours/souvenirs

I hope I can find something like this when I go shopping in divisoria:
OR
They would look great with old rose-colored ribbons/lace! Plus they double as place-card holders too!
Ring designs

Here’s the simplest wedding band I can find:
I think we can get away with the simplest ring design, and maybe differing colors. I think Ajay would prefer a silvery (white gold = gold + nickel) color, while I do prefer a rose gold (gold + copper) color.
