"Our Super Intimate Wedding"

Image
A Wedding is a union between a man and a woman who have committed to stay together for the rest of their lives in front of God, their families and their special friends. Ever since I had thoughts of marriage, I really dreamt of an intimate wedding with just few (approx 20) of our family and friends be present at the church. I want to value the moment where it is not stressed into the wedding details or too many people to consider. Much to my surprise it is not just a dream come true as it is not just intimate, it is very intimate wedding as only 6 (Bride, Groom, 2 witness, Priest and church staff) are allowed to be at the church as compliance for the current COVID 19 pandemic regulations. No full mass, no traditional Filipino wedding, no decorations, no cameras, just Us. It really didn't bother us as the most important reason for this wedding is our union blessed by Christ.

Not The Same Day Wedding Reception

Image
As per my previous article (https://govid2020.blogspot.com/2020/11/wedding-details.html), we did have a slight trouble in our paperworks and due to uncertainty that our cut throat suspense church wedding will happen, we decided to wait to schedule our reception not until the wedding happened itself last 27th of November 2020. With covid restrictions clearly followed in the country we are living in and hotel coordination, we did manage to pull off a "not the same day wedding reception" last 3rd of December 2020.  Disclaimer: Masks are worn at all times as it is our party favor, some shots without masks are taken as quick as the click of the camera and was worn back the soonest with the exemption of course  during the time they are enjoying their meals.  All photo credits is taken by our dear friend Peter Consigna.
