Post wedding errands

Do you actually think your work is done after the wedding ceremony? Of course not!

First, you're supposed to go on the honeymoon next. But of course not! We DO NOT have a honeymoon trip planned. Or so we had a plan but we weren't able to book anything so, it's just too bad for both of us.

So what have I been doing since the wedding day?
I slept and slept for 2 days. I was soooo tired I felt I needed all the rest I can get.

And then, I took my husband's suit to the cleaners.

And then, I took my gown and accessories to my supplier for cleaning, repairs and preservation. (yes, repairs. my strap snapped off after returning to the hotel for our rest.) And cleaning, of course, because it rained on my wedding day, so the trails on my gowns were all mud stains and grass stains. My handbag has a few makeup stains, my 10 kilometer veil has makeup stains. My shoes has mud stains. Everything had stains!

I was just wondering what on earth am I going to do with my wedding gown now that I'm done with it. Maybe I'll wear it again on my 25th wedding anniversary! hahaaha!

And then tomorrow, we get to drive back to town again for some banking errands.

And then, maybe, I have to call the church and ask how on earth am I going to get my marriage certificate. I need that document to be able to change my status on all other agencies. BIR forms, bank forms, SSS, etc. etc.

and now what? oh yes. We are supposed to visit my husband's relatives for the second wedding party at Marikina.

And then, I go off on Sunday for the christening of my dear friend Tintin's little angel. I get to be his godmother.. hehehe! I hope they know what they're doing.

And yes, I still need to gather pictures from friends and start creating thank you cards for the gifts that we received, and for the guests who came to witness our special day.

No more preludes

No more preludes to talk about. My job is done!

We made it through the ceremony, only minor mishaps, I enjoyed my wedding day!

But of course, here are a few stressful things that happened before my big day:
1. I got sick 2 weeks before my wedding. I had high fever for 3 days, and my gums were swelling. I had diarrhea and I don't know why. Thank God I didn't get the flu.

2. 1 day before our prenuptial pictorials, I didn't have a dress to wear. I had to drag Pogs to shop with us at MOA.

3. 5 days before the wedding, my shoes does not fit.

4. 3 days before the wedding, my shoes still won't fit.

5. 1 day before the wedding, pedicure and manicure services at Taal Vista were fully booked. We ended up having foot spa instead.

6. 1 day before the wedding, the water tank in our village conked out, we didn't have water supply for the whole wedding weekend at home (2 days after the wedding, we still don't have tap water. I am bathing in mineral water! gosh!). I was lucky to check in on the hotel that day!

7. 1 day before the wedding, we had a problem with the groom's room accomodation. Photo shoot schedule had to move up 1 hour because they had to check out!

8. 2 days before the wedding, we still don't know what to do with the van I rented because nobody seems to be needing the vehicle anymore. Luckily, the groom needed the transportation at the last minute. hahaha!

9. 1 Day before the wedding, I am still receiving cancellation of my guests. :(

10. 1 day before and until the wedding, it rained. :(
