If you can’t seem to shrug off that sleepiness and your mind is still wondering where the weekend has gone… well, you’re probably not alone. Let me help you kick off your Monday with something that will surely get you a bit more inspired to conquer the day. Taewoo and Diana’s regal rendezvous is worthy of welcoming our week here in B&B. With deep purples and reds to enhance the royal vibe, this celebration is going to draw some attention to the hopeless romantics out there (ok, I’m one of them)! Count on Nelwin Uy to produce breathtaking shots–I simply can’t get over how pretty everything is. Hello lovely Monday, we’re ready for you!
When you’re a mom, you don’t really have a lot of time to spare. That plus the job of growing Bride and Breakfast has pretty much filled my schedule. So when the opportunity came to spend the weekend in Singapore with my best friends, I could not believe that everything just fell into place.
My friend Gaucha invited us (me and Leanne) to join her and her husband to see the ASAP show they are doing in Singapore. I don’t really watch a lot of TV but I was definitely excited for the whole experience, plus it was a chance for my girls and I to see each other again. So with two days to spare, we conquered Singapore.
Here we are in PS.Cafe in Dempsey Hill. I totally fell in love with the quaint and cozy feel of the restaurant plus the fact that it was surrounded by greens! Totally relaxing. We ordered their famous Ceasar Salad and some Truffle Oil Fries. We could have stayed here for hours!
Here I am with Gaucha in this really great Japanese restaurant. I forgot the name, but the steak was to die for! After that, the three of us went back to the Fullerton Bay Hotel for some drinks and for our tourist picture taking! This one was taken in Lantern, the rooftop bar and restaurant of the hotel (it was so gorgeous I didn’t wanna leave!).
The next day we got ready to see the show! But not before we took some photos. We must make the most out of our once-in-a-blue-moon trips together.
When we got to the show, they led us to the best seats in the house (right smack front and center)! The artists were literally only a couple of feet away. And though this was my first time to see the whole show, I must say it was such a one-of-a-kind experience. I also totally loved the idea that the cast of the show give so much joy to our fellow Filipinos who are working so hard in other countries.
In the evening we headed out to paint the town red and joined the cast for hors d’ouvres and drinks. It was a wonderful experience getting to know most of them. But even with such a star-studded evening, I really had the most fun with my friends–we laughed until tears rolled down our faces as we made our typical bloopers. I think we should make this a yearly thing!
Oh, and because it’s Christmas soon and this post really is somehow related to the stars, I thought of including the ABS-CBN Studio ID Video, which for me was very well-crafted.
I’m pretty much loving the save-the-date videos I’ve been seeing lately. Here’s one from Ian Cruz Films. Erwin and Pamy’s cute and colorful vid has youthful vibrance written all over it. Now who doesn’t love that right?
I have been dying to show everyone these amazing photos of Cris and Angela. We actually featured their wedding a few months back (Angela wore this gown that was to die for)! Well, their engagement shoot was equally beautiful and breathtaking. This is actually the first time we also get to feature the styling work of Danika of Hello-Rio.com, and I must say I am a fan! I also super loved the make-up that Kaycee Lim did for Angela–I can’t stress how much having a good artist makes a big difference in a shoot! Combine that with the wonderful talent of Cherryblocks, and you get a perfect mix of being stylish, tasteful and looking totally in love.
One thing I totally love is an outdoor photo shoot. There’s just something about the sunlight and a bunch of greenery that make pictures extra romantic. Starkey and May’s hippie engagement shoot is hippie heaven. Honestly, the tricky thing with engagement shoots is really for the couple to connect and be the characters they wear. These two perfectly became the starstruck lovers in this enchanted setting, so yes, we love love love it! This set certainly exuded the surreal vibe that makes it totally a-ok in our book.
