We were fortunate enough to have acquired the services of SJT Strings for our special day. Was given a list of songs to choose from for the various activities. Here's what we've picked so far (still subject to change if we find anything nice from now until November lol).
I just can't put into words how giddy/ happy my fiancee and I looked and acted over webcam last night-- with me searching and playing each song on YouTube and the boss listening intently and approving/ disapproving the songs.
Our theme song, "Forevermore," will of course be the one that we'll dance to. But one of my favorites, "Sa Piling Mo" will be used for the exchanging of vows. It's just a beautiful song that I wish we could also dance to later in the evening. :)

Groom update on requirements
This morning I took a cab to the old St. John the Baptist a.k.a. "Pinaglabanan" Church in faraway San Juan. Didn't bother taking Betsy (my seven year old Mazda 3) along because I'm not a fan of driving around in circles in odd places. Yes, San Juan is a blooming city, I know, JV Ejercito's done a marvelous job and all, but I just have a thing against uncertain places.
If I can take a cab or get there via public transport the first time so I can familiarize myself with the roads, then that's what I'll always do.
Once at the freshly painted-looking church, I took a quick look inside and gave thanks. There was a baptism going on by the altar, and I couldn't help but picture myself, some twenty-odd years ago, being held by my mom and my dad, with my now unknown godparents around. Wonder how we all looked back then. It's a shame that my parents didn't keep any photos. Oh well.

Updates on the Trial Make-Up, Femme Ento Measurements & Jhune Salud
It's been a while since the last entry, been busy juggling work, social life (what's left of it anyway) and trying to squeeze in wedding preparations whenever the spirit moves the Groom and also, whenever the Bride flies home from overseas.
First thing on our "to do list" was for The Bride to have a trial make-up with Ms Jeng Flores of Jeng and Carlan. A little back story on Ms Jeng, she originally said that she wouldn't be able to accommodate us on December 1 because she had an earlier engagement. This didn't sit well with the Bride, and as a Groom, it was on me to pull out all the stops.
