pre-nup

Last week, we went out of town with Jong and Madge to have our Pre-Nuptial pics taken. To make a long story short, we ended up at La Luz for the shoot (San Juan, Batangas) -- yup, we traveled that far!

Anyway, the photo shoot was something very foreign to Pia and I. It was fun and something we knew we'd only do once (or maybe twice..hehe). All in all it was a very enjoyable day and I guess Jong 's work can more than speak for itself. Here are some of our shots:

cake concepts

Initially, we didn't really concern ourselves with the wedding cake. To us, it was not really a priority as its only there for aesthetic purposes. But after seeing one of the cakes Pia was able to find over the net, it made me think about how nice that particular cake design would tie up with our overall vineyard theme. So thus began our search for cake supplier.

There are a lot of artistic cake makers around and it all boils down to who you think can execute your desired design the best. With that in mind, we ended up with Cake Concepts. Candy (one of the owners) provided us with ideas on how we can come up with our cake. And at the end of our meeting, we had this feeling that she was the one we want to make our vineyard inspired cake.


As for the cake flavor, I wanted the Orange cake that she had me taste but Pia wanted another one, which was the Choco-Rasberry. Well, to make the story short, we ended up with a two-layer cake. Hehe.
