Working on the premise that a fairy tale wedding doesn't necessarily guarantee a happy ending, we conceptualized our dream wedding by bearing in mind that the vow is the wedding, and the wedding is the vow. The rest is just icing in the cake.

We are, after all, already 6 years into a marriage that has truly been tested by actual marital woes. And of course, we're already blessed with two beautiful children. We are not your typical newlyweds.

Our wedding will be a celebration of thanksgiving for our family who continue to support us and for our friends who remained through the years. We are also thankful for our many wonderful experiences together as a couple looking forward to the best things that are yet to come.

We have had, we held, and we are still holding on. Thank you, Lord!
