BIG wedding that I was not in.

So how is this related to my daily life being able to watch a wedding on the news yesterday...hmmnn...well it was said to be the wedding of the year as it befits royalty. A wedding between a senator and a tv journalist/news anchor. I don't know if it's really the wedding I want if I were a celebrity or royalty at all...you know the BIG crowd, the non stop flashing of cameras, shrieking fans, I don't know if I'd ever fit into that scene anyway, I'd be a total obsessive-compulsive mess! But there they are radiant, smiling, teary-eyed and owning the moment as if nothing else matters than meeting eye to eye down the longest aisle I've ever seen (so far) at the Santo Domingo Church. The theme was classic Filipino where the ladies wore traditional "Filipiniana" (Fi-li-pin-ya-na) dresses with butterfly sleeves and the men wore Barong Tagalogs, an embroidered, off-white, long-sleeved-collared shirt made of weaved pineapple fibers. Classic, very elegant and now I wished my wedding was Filipino themed...arrgghhh...it seemed so posh.

Korina Sanchez is the bride and Senator Mar Roxas is the groom...hmmnn...now if you can remember me doing a post about Mar Roxas he is the supposed to be presidential candidate that gave way for a much popular candidate who is Noynoy Aquino...what's interesting is Noynoy Aquino is Korina's ex-boyfriend whom they made into a godfather in the wedding...haha...Noynoy is not even that old and is single. ^^

oh well... their fates are intertwined in so many, many ways you can read them in my older post.

here's the wedding on the news:




PS. I just learned that her florist was the same with the florist of my friend who wed in my last post. ^^

Sassy loves weddings.

I agree, high scale wedding would be too much for me also. Looks like quite the event though. That's pretty cool about the flowers.
