The Gacads and the Subangs "officially" met to talk about the wedding on Saturday January 22, 2011. It went very well overall. Mark's whole family including his two aunts came over to my house.

As this is my mom's first "Pamanhikan", it makes sense for her to stress out a bit. =) She made us clean the whole house from top to bottom. Even my room (who has been needing a lot of TLC for sometime) was spic and span by the time Mark and his family came over. In fact my mom commented, "Sana laging pumunta ang familia ni Mark dito." Ha ha!

It started off with a blessing for the food led by my fiancé (love referring to him as that). After dinner, the "kids" went downstairs to watch a movie, while the adults mingled. After about half an hour, we were called to join the adults upstairs ... dum dum dum ....

Once we were with the adults, they pretty much talked to us about the wedding details. When, where, etc.

The official date is  
Friday, October 12, 2012

Here's kind of an explanation why we chose this date. October is the 10th month of the year and in the year 2012, we will be celebrating our 10th year anniversary. Also, we both love the colours of fall. We figured that if any of our families from the Philippines make it to our wedding, it's a beautiful time of year for them to be visiting Canada.

Colour scheme will be
Blue (very likely to be Royal Blue) and Silver

Both Mark and I love Blue, so it worked out. We figured silver would be a great accent colour because we wanted something that looked simple and classy. The wedding will be in Mississauga. We still have not finalized the Church or the wedding reception. Our families also gave us a lot of advices about wedding planning and about getting married in general.

We have truly been blessed to have so much support and love from our family.

One Response so far.
