As a founding member of the Philippine Association of Wedding Planners (PAWP), its Chairman for several years, and now its Chairman Emeritus, I am excited to be part of KALEIDOSCOPE, the 11th Philippine Wedding Industry Ball. This year’s celebration coincides with the 20th Founding Anniversary of the Philippine Association of Wedding Planners.

As we look back to two decades of love and dedication to our industry, we are once again bringing together under one roof the brightest wedding suppliers across the country for a night of fun and nostalgia as we celebrate the rhythms and colors that influenced the world of weddings for the past 20 years.

See you at Solaire Entertainment City on October 22, 2024!

What a wonderful, magical celebration of our lovely Sabbie, for her 18th birthday! It was a beautiful very intimate gathering of close friends and family. We were all in fairyland, wearing wings and elf's ears, listening to the soothing music of the harp, and gazing at all the beautiful flowers around us!

And despite the rains, (which we consider as blessings) there was so much fun and joy! Tears of joy flowed in every part of the simple program, both from the guests and the debutante. 💖

We were supposed to have an outdoor Tea Party in the afternoon, boating on the lake, pictorial around the Lake Farm, then dinner at the main house. But the continuous pouring of rain confined us to the beautifully decorated main house, where fresh and lovely flowers abound in a fairyland setting.
Delicious food was a-plenty, starting with the Tea Party in the afternoon. A grazing table was filled with mini-sandwiches, sliders, fairy wands of fruits and cheeses, and a charcuterie board in butterfly shape. Then in the evening, a sumptuous Buffet Dinner followed by a simple Program, full of laughter and fun! 💖

This kind of heartwarming message from a client is the great reward for the job we all love to do, and make us even want to be better in it... ❤

There are no other hands on where we could have placed ourselves but yours with your heart, years of experience, and talent in your field.
