They say miracles only happen in fairy tales..if its true, then I guess they haven’t met yet Gervin and Bel.

So many things to write about this wedding. So why don’t I start it off by sharing their remarkable heart story that was told to us by Gervin himself when we met him in his resto. It so happened that Gervin met Bel in a resto in the fort. Love at first sight? Probably! For she was sitting somewhere in a corner, minding her own business..until he had that courage to finally approach her and asked for her number. Too bad for him she did not give the right digits at first. But of course the story did not stop there, for we all know how things ended up between our two lovebirds. Of course wedding bells!!! Love was generously scattered through out that day. It was such a load of fun and not to mention party all night long! East meets west!

Another 411? Well, with this wedding it was our first time to work with our uber talented buddy Erron Ocampo of Imaginenation Beyond.Oh happy days!!! Anyway here’s our most up to date Boracay SDE (and last Bora wedding for this month if I might add). There’s only one way to say these three words four you…”Gervin and Bel!”
Cheers guyz!

“O pagibig na makapangyarihan, kapag pumasok ka sa puso nino man..hahamakin ang lahat masunod ka lamang”

Such strong words from Florante and Laura. They say marriage is not measured by how expensive your wedding was or how extravagant you went during the ceremony. It is the solemnity of two individuals vowing their love for each other in front of God and all their loved ones. It is the celebration of their lives together as husband and wife and looking forward of growing old in each other’s arms. These and more are the things we learned and remembered during Brian and Dahl’s wedding. Love and Marriage…Brian and Dahl..Love Love Love.. So before we get carried away with all these mushy stuffs.. here’s Brian and Dahl’s SDE. Enjoy!

When can a girl say that she is indeed a woman? After she danced with 18 guys? After she received 18 wishes by her female friends? or is it after she was given 18 treasures by her loved ones? There are a lot of traditions and practices during a girl’s debut in order for people to say that she has finally transformed into a young lady. But more than that, a girl could say that she is indeed a woman if she is ready to accept her new role and embrace her new responsibilities as she face new challenges in her life.

“A hatchling has turned into a graceful swan…such are the wonders of nature…and now the darling little girl has turned into a beautiful young lady…” And that beautiful young lady is no other than our debutant herself…”ELIM”.

So without further ado, here’s our latest debut SDE…Elim @ 18! Enjoy!

It has been a tradition to some families that once a girl gets married, it is customary that she should wear her mother’s wedding dress. That was quite true in Chris’ case. Looking radiant than ever, she wore that dress during her church ceremony with Todd. And how many times should a guy marry the girl of his dreams in a day? For Todd, definitely more than once. They first got married earlier that day in the church then remarried themselves again along the seashore later that afternoon. It was such a fun wedding. Of course! With “General” Amanda (aka. superwoman) in charge, what could possibly go wrong? Started the reception with dancing and ended it with more dancing. Party all night long! So enough said of what happened. Instead, why don’t we show you what I’m talking about as you take a glimpse of their wedding through our latest video. Ladies and gentlemen Chris and Todd’s
“NO GLIDE” SDE.

What is endless love? It is when two hearts beat as one. And as they begin their life together, they know that they will last forever. Corny? Not when you’re hopelessly in love with your best friend.

So how will you know that he is the one for you? How long must someone wait? Is 1 year enough? 5 years? How about 10 years? For Vivian, she waited for this special moment for 23 years. And now the time has come, both are ready and both are willing. Love has certainly taken its rightful place. And for Ivan, he knew that he made the best decision of his life. Because when you think about it, his best friend will now become his wife.

Feel the magic! Here’s Ivan and Vivian’s Heartstory. Enjoy!

2009 has finally sprung. And what will the year of the Ox bring us? Possibilities are endless. Here are some of the fearless predictions that I’ve seen in my crystal ball:

1. Lindsay Lohan will start dating men.
2. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will adopt another baby.
3. More reality tv series.
4. A couple from Philippine Showbiz will break up.
5. Philippine actress will get pregnant.
6. Celso and Cheryl will live happily ever after.

Ok ok. Scrap those 1-5 predictions. For the only thing I’m sure of that will EVENTUALLY AND ACTUALLY happen is prediction number 6. No doubt on that one. Even their friends and family could attest to that. For we have all witnessed new hope and love. And we know for a fact that their new found life together does not stop this year or anytime soon for that matter. Their new found love will last for a lifetime.

So why don’t we kick this year right by presenting to you our first SDE for the year 2009. Straight from the land of Atiatihan, Kalibo Aklan…Ladies and Gentlemen…Cheryl and Celso’s SDE. Happy 2009 to all!

Finally! We never expected we can pull it off. It was not an easy task. But we did it. Same Day Edit in HD!

For our last wedding for the year 2008, we certainly got lucky with our couple. Lorena and Empoy were both sweet and charming. With just a heartbeat, you will certainly love these two lovebirds. We already expected for a fact that it would be an intimate wedding since it’s in Boracay. But what we didn’t expect was that almost everyone had a role during the wedding day itself. Everyone had a great time, including us. No Rain and No Brown Out could stop this wedding! Special thanks to Smiles and Clicks, for helping us pull this off during show time. Whew! What a way to end 2008!
