Been a busy bee this week. Aside from quiz week at school, I had a wedding party to prepare for and I really had to be hands on, because my unico hijo was going to be a bible bearer for the FIRST TIME!:)
So, last thursday we were invited to the prenuptial dinner and I really didn't know what to wear, because I always seem to wear a dress on special occasions, I wanted to give that a rest and go for something else. And while I was raiding my closet and my Mom's, I found her office suit; a blazer and trousers. I figured I wanted to wear the trousers and ended up going to the dinner like this....
Top: mango | Trousers: from mom's closet | Shoes: parisian jr. |
Necklace: style scene
I wanted the focus to be on the trousers, so I made my top simple by just adding a very decorative necklace and nude wedges. I think I did alright in styling it, based on some comments at Chictopia hehe. :)
For the wedding day itself here's what happened and what the family and I wore...
The breath-taking church
My boys looking handsome in their barongs :) It was Athan's first time to wear a barong, slacks and black shoes. He looked SO adorable!!
And this is me and Athan walking down the aisle. I loved my dress' design, but comfort wise, I was very disturbed. I changed after the "I-do's" into something more comfortable and with a lovely design...
Dress: from Mom's closet | Shoes: vnc | Clutch bag: charles and keith
Again, I went into my Mom's closet and got this dress. It's really pretty. You can't see it clearly, but the dress is made out of silk and lace. I love the flow of the dress.
Here are also some pictures from the reception, which was held at The Blue Leaf Event Pavilion...
Kiss! Kiss!
The yummy food! My favorite was the mash and salmon..NOM! :)

After eating Athan was getting fussy and wanted to stay outdoors, so the next photos are us staying at the garden the whole evening...
Me and the happy boy
Me and Silly
Our view. Beautiful tower. I think it's part of the mall we saw on the way to Blue Leaf :)
On our way home. I love this!
Don't you just love weddings? You can see how much the couple love each other during events like that. I hope to get married someday in a beautiful church like St. Therease and have all my loved ones there. :) Also this wedding gave me the opportunity to raid my Mom's closet and find great things. I found another item from my Mom that I haven't worn yet. Will just show it to you guys when I get the chance to style it. Till my next raid! :)
