Butterfly Kisses
here's the lyrics of butterfly kisses.. ive heard this song before.. kya lng.. lge ko nililipat pag nrrinig ko.. so im not aware of the lyrics not until one of my fellow w@w bride sent me d mp3.. naiyak ako.. super CRYER tlga.. wala lng.. share ko lng..
BUTTERFLY KISSES (Bob Carlisle)
There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from heaven, and she's Daddy's little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life, oh but most of all...
For butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk beside the pony Daddy, it's my first ride
I know the cake looks funny Daddy, but I sure tried
Oh with all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.
Sweet sixteen today
She's looking like her Mama, a little more everyday.
One part woman, the other part girl
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings out in a great big world, but I remember...
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair.
You know how much I love you Daddy, but if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the cheek this time.
With all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.
All the precious time, oh, like the wind the years go by.
Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly.
She'll change her name today, she'll make a promise, and I'll give her away.
Standing in the bridegroom just staring at her
She asks me what I'm thinking, and I said I'm not sure.
I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl, and she leaned over...
Gave me butterfly kisses with her Mama there
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair.
Walk me down the aisle Daddy, it's just about time.
Does my wedding gown look pretty Daddy? Daddy, don't cry.
Oh, with all that I've done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve her love every morning, and butterfly kisses,
I couldn't ask God for more, than this is what love is.
I know I gotta let her go, but I'll always remember...
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses.

WEDDING PREPS
FINALLY!!! i would like to share our wedding check list.. grabe n2.. mxado akong excited noh? ive done my research and so far.. we have ideas n din of what themes to incorporate.. Our wedding motif will be citrus.. like tangerine~orange & apple~green..
First.. wedding date.. this is the most important one.. hehe..
DATE: AUGUST 16, 2008
TIME: 4:00 P.M
Story behind the date:
Our plan before was to tie the knot on the 18th of October.. But due to work-related reasons.. we have to go home for vacay during summer season. Summer season here in UAE is april may june july august... so na move na ang wedding nmen sa august.. We tried august 8.. para 8.8.08. swerte dau kc yun.. but my h2b is objecting.. kc dau bka di xa payagan umuwi ng employer nya ng gnun ka aga.. we have to go home atlist 1 month before our wedding kc.. so AUG 16.. saturday.. 4 pm.. 16th of AUG falls on a FULL moon.. swerte dau kc yun.. so... dats d story.. haba noh? hehe.. cgro yun tlga ang ukol na date for us..4 pm naman..kc gus2 nmen dinner tym.. and gus2 ko ng candlelit dinner pte.. ahehe..
CHURCH: Christ the King
Peso Power: a bit pricey compared to other churches.. pro we got discount so.. worry free nko.. kc may relative kme na nag wowork dun.. thanks GOd!
Story behind the church
First church na pinag inquiran nmen is CTK.. and si sandra (hi best) pa nag inquire nun.. and 25k nga dau ang charge nila.. kmusta nman sa mahal.. so i told my h2b bout it.. so we were eyeing.. Pasig Cathedral.. kun san ako bininyagan.. and nag inquire din kme sa Mt. Carmel.. we thot nga sa Mt. Carmel kme ikakasal..All the churches have long aisles nman.. mganda.. and they have this hispanic look tlga.. kya ganda.. kya lng.. I prefer CTK tlga.. khet mahal xa.. and cgro.. yun din kaloob ni God for us.. we wanted a very solemn ceremony kc.. and nkita ko na yun place.. average lng yun haba ng aisle and may aircon n xa.. kya i think everybody will feel comfortable.. given the weather conditions der.. minsan super init.. so ayun.. kaya super pray ako n sna mkayanan nmen ang budget for our wedding..
RECEPTION: Christ the King Hall
1st option.. Acropolis.. Then.. sinz nalaman nmen na may relative kme sa CTK.. nag pareserve n din kme sa CTK hall.. so ayun.. ive seen it from pictures pa lang.. Bhala n ang caterer ko kung panu nila gagayakan yun.. hehehe.. im prayin na sana makakuha kme good caterer.. and mabait.. at mbgyan kme ng mdaming freebies and discount..
Caterer: No definite yet.. But so far nakapag inquire ako sa robert camba's catering.. very affordable xa.. masarap naman dau ang food. and ok nman xa... kya lng parang mxadong simple lang for me yun set up.. ang pinaka ngus2han ko ay ang ELOQUENTE... nkapag inquire n din ako. pro d p kme nag dp.. kc matagal p nman.. panalo sa dami ng inclusions.. mdyo mgtataas n din cla by nxt yr.. kaya.. d ko muna tinuloy ang pangungulit.. good thing d pa ako nagpa pencil booking.. I was referred to another caterer.. La Cucina.. Owned by my h2b's kafamilia.. i havent read the menu list yet.. pro as per tita nene's recommendation masarap nman dau ang mga food.. so mega txt ako kay tito rolly.. the owner.. and e2 dau mga inclusions..
1. Guestbook
2. Red Carpet
sorry medyo long read..
3. candelabra tito rolly: yup ang mga candles ko scented at nakabuhos sa glass actually ang package kung ngaun gagawin we can give it for as low as 320 (sna pumayag na 320 na lng til nxt yr) basta walang mga abrupt changes sa mga prices ng commodoties di na masyaso tatas un inclusive of the following: re menu: 5 main courses free soup sa presidential ( i forgot to ask kun ano pala ang dessert nila) and ask ko din how much kun ipa upgrade ko.. wat if kun gus2 nmen lhat ng guest ay may soup? hmm.. wag n nga lng.. hehe.. taxes lang wala service charge pero pwede natin pag-usapan un.. (sna nman bgyan kme ng gud deal)
basta very simple yet elegant ang set up namin as i was telling u kmi lang ang may mga candles na ganoon
usually kasi ang mga caterers bumibili lang ng mga votive candles.
yup maganda ang orange n limegreen or applegreen.lahat ng dinig tables ko may mirror sa ibabaw where i place the centerpiece n menu cards.ung sa pic 100 pcs un, inabot ng 3500 kc every cupckae nasa dome na container pwede rin centerpiece natin ay glass cylinders with fresh fruits n flowers para pwede rin iuwi ng mga guests.meron kming bubble machine kasama un sa mobile sounds n lights.definitely mababa lang as i said inaanak ni kuya sammy ang namamahala ng mobnile ko.pwede kmi magdecorate ng church para makamura ka. kita mo ung candelabra na ginamit ko sa aisle? actually u can tell the church na di isama ang flowers sa package.d2 kasi sa cavite pag alam kami ang caterer expected na nila maganda ang set ups n candles ko plus delicious food. got one client who has paid 20thou resrvatiopns with juan carlo pinabayaan nila maforfeit kc nakaatend ung isang cousin sa catering namin. basta ako ang set up ko ay simple yet elegant ayoko ng over decorated kc nawawala ang focus sa couple.kung sa iyo green n orange alam mo the best for the aisle ay green apples with orange rose.ung apples nakalagay sa glass vases tapos sa ibabaw isang bundle na orange roses.ung mga glasses na un ang lalagyan ng green apples then on top orange roses. we can also incorporate sa flower arrangements sa reception flowers n fruits orabnges n apples in particular .ako usually sa entrance pa lang meron na akong mga floating candles.

.jpg)
We myt get them as our caterer.. and i trust them enough.. wish lang nmen na sana 320/head ang give smen for nxt yr.. haaaaayyyy... wish ko lng.. by d way.. here's d sample of their pics...
church set up:
Comment:
nice.. wow! i know d nbgyan ng justice tong picture.. pro kun professional fotog kukuha nyan.. super ganda.. sana kasama n sa package yun set up ng church.. wish ko lng.. i would love to walk down d aisle ng may candles.. sigh.. God.. give mo n lng smen as a MANA gift to.. pls? pls? free n lng sna set up ng candles sa church.. khet wag na yun flowers..

and then.. the reception set up.. table set up
nilagay ko yun may mga fruits.. kc e2 bet ko.. mgaling din c tito rolly mag brainstorm ng ideas.. kya confident ako n mgiging mganda reception nmen.. =)

gazebo for couples
waaaahhh... im quite confused sa ngayon. pro gus2 ko mga ideas nya.. kya lng kc.. wala definite amount e. scary.. hehe.. ambaba p ng palit ng dollar nkakaiyak.. huhhu.. sna.. nman... sing ganda pro di sing mahal..
For Photogs:
we have the redefine weddings... pencil booked.. by nxt yr na kme mag babayad ng downpayment.. super early pa kc...and cge yun 1st package n lng kunin nmen.. we have to cut down sa cost kc..
For Haute Couture... wala pa.. but i have this dress in mind.. pro pa halter gus2 ko and xempre white color ng gown.. not blue. aheheh..
