If June is a month of weddings, so is December.
December 1, 2013, our good friends Richard Relator and Jonalyne Jose decided to get married in an elegant and lavish wedding ceremony in Tagaytay. It was a splendid wedding with Jo wearing a very beautiful gown that made her radiant amid the black sea of men in their suits and women in their olive green gowns. Richard was in a tux, looking handsome as ever. The ceremony took place in the kapilya of the Iglesia ni Cristo in Tagaytay. It was my first time to attend an INC gathering and it moved me. What moved me was how the pastor weaved the readings from different Bible scriptures into one coherent piece. Ang galing e,talagang hinango from different books in the Bible tapos meron siyang coherent theme tapos lahat ng magiging actions mo are Bible-based. Ang galing lang talaga.

| Reception took place at Ville Sommet in Tagaytay City. The venue is big enough to fit, I think, 500 guests. Notice the real fountain behind the couple's bench and how beautiful the draped ceilings are with the old-style chandeliers. The cake at Chi and Jo's wedding is intricately designed and very classy. The centerpiece at every table is simple yet elegant. |
The reception was held in Ville Sommet, not sure how big was the ground area, but it was a beautiful, sprawling, architecturally pleasing place to be in. The landscape architecture was also beautiful, with the plants matching the theme of Ville Sommet. One of the wonderful things about this wedding is how hands-on and creative Jo can be when it comes to the details. This camera you see below was Jo's idea. Also the marmalade giveaway and the corsage/boutonniere name plate that was given to us to find our table number. Ang galing nung attention to details. And I think it was Jo's brainchild, all of this small details. Jo, if ever you're reading this, can I ask for your services to be my future wedding's creative director? Hahaha! Thanks in advance, hahaha! Kapal lang ng mukha! :)

| Each table was provided with an instamatic film camera for you to take photos of the people seated at your table and whatever good moments the wedding has. Natuwa ako sa concept na iyon, yung may camera per table tapos picture picture kayo. I also took photos of the bride and groom, garapalan lang pagpunta sa harap at pagtawag ng atensyon nila habang nagffirst dance, haha! The principal sponsor's table was long and elegantly set. Outside the wedding reception area was Ville Sommet's grounds lit by tea light candles in jars--- very beautiful sight at night. |

| Hooray for the bride and groom!!! Congratulations and best wishes to Richard and Jonalyne for tying the knot! **it's a trap!** Just kidding! :) |
The photographs below were our photobooth pictures taken at the wedding. Even after more than seven years of living separate lives, hindi pa rin nawawala yung kakengkoyan ng isa't-isa--- that attitude that makes every person in the block unique. College friends are indeed priceless to have. Lahat ng kaek-ekan nung college, alam na alam niyo pa rin at syempre, pinagtatawanan niyo pa rin ito. Ang tagal na ng panahon na magkakasama tayo guys, more than ten years!!! And I get so DAMN GIDDY every time we see each other :) I am VERY HAPPY to have these set of friends way back in college. And it makes me even HAPPIER that until now, we are all still friends :) How fast time flies talaga, ang dami nang may baby at asawa sa batch natin at mga ikakasal pa in the future. Ang saya-saya how our lives evolved into something mature, and I thought hindi na ako mag-eevolve sa stage na yan, hindi na ako magmemetamorphose, forever caterpillar na lang! Hahahaha!
From the bottom of my heart, congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Richard and Jonalyne Relator and big I love you to all my chem/biochem blockmates! :)
MABUHAY ANG CHEM/BIOCHEM 102!!!
