My 2 fellows at work and now, mentor & batchmate in this wonderful hobby called photography, had absolutely no idea that while we’re shooting these 2 BMW cars we found, parked opposite the facade of Plaza Gurney yesterday afternoon; I became a little nostalgic of what my wife and I experienced 7 years ago.
I recalled neither Tina nor I had a chance to choose our wedding car since everything we availed was part of the hotel package.
No regrets because Lady Luck was on our side during that “big day.”
We were told then by the banquet manager that our supposed “bridal car” broke down and was, at the last minute, replaced by the Dusit Hotel Nikko with a Lincoln stretch limousine at no extra cost!
*all photos of our wedding were taken by Ariel Javelosa (click here to view our album).
Tina asked our costurera to do a custom-made bride-and-groom gears for the 2 teddy bears we bought in the mall; the same piece of cloth from her gown was used. So the bumper of the limo did not have flowers only but those cute little ones which were also brought to the table of the cake for display.
So long for wedding stories.
What matters most is what happens after the wedding…
I’m talking about MARRIAGE. What were you thinking? 😛
toinks!
PS : How did you find my trying-hard-captures? Nonetheless, Alfonso (my toy D7000) and I had fun clicking those shots yesterday.

Love is blind, but marriage restores its sight. ~Samuel Lichtenberg
I love being married. It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. ~Rita Rudner
It’s a funny thing that when a man hasn’t anything on earth to worry about, he goes off and gets married. ~Robert Frost
Men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage – they’ve experienced pain and bought jewelry. ~Rita Rudner
Thus Dante’s motto over Inferno applies with equal force to marriage: “Ye who enter here leave all hope behind.” ~Emma Goldman, Marriage and Love
Why do married men gain weight while bachelors don’t? Bachelors go to the refrigerator, see nothing they want, then go to bed. Married guys go to the bed, see nothing they want, then go to the refrigerator. ~Author Unknown
