The wedding was set for October 10, 2009 at Fernbrook and it was already been prepared for many months by the mother of the groom in anticipation for the arrival of the couple-to-be from the states but bad news broke. The husband-to-be stayed in Manila to meet his relatives and friends two days before the wedding while his wife-to-be went to Baguio, her hometown. The moment she reached Baguio super Typhoon Peping hit the city and other northern parts. The bride was stranded. The following day would be her wedding but roads were not passable because of the landslides that killed many. It was a devastating storm after that strong rage of Typhoon Ondoy that hit Metro Manila, a devastating typhoon, too that left many homeless and many dead.
The wedding was scheduled the next day but hours before the event the bride couldn’t make it still because it would take several days to clear the road going to Manila. It was sad that such a cherished moment supposedly was marred.
October 11, 2009 turned into a get together instead. Friends and relatives gathered to celebrate the birthday of the groom's grandmother instead of a wedding reception. Still, there was the set-up with the groom with his parents in a separate table. The couple arrived from Hawaii barely a week ago for the big day. Still, it was a moment for a wonderful longing with friends and relatives. Still, the spirit reigned
Before the dinner started the groom did some spiels mentioning how they met and a bit of courtship thing stressing their professed love with that controlled American accent about to crack with tears but managed not to.
We provided the music during the party and as usual the party went well. There were about 120 guests that filled the Byzantine Hall of Fernbrook Gardens. Our music progressed longer because there was no program at all. Just music and food. And more conversations as our tamed music floated in the air.
It was about 11:00 pm when we’re done and some guests still stayed enjoying the moment with one another. Pilipinos are really longing with relatives after sometime. And a get-together is a way for one’s expression.
I heard that after two days, they had their marital blessing from a priest, privately.

WEDDING NOTES – A CHRISTIAN WEDDING AT THE DISCOVERY
The penthouse of The Discovery Suites is suitable venue for an intimate wedding ceremony that can accommodate around hundred guests, the reason why close relatives and friends prefer the 42nd floor overlooking the whole of Pasig and Mandaluyong.
A wedding ceremony like this requires resplendent music to complement the feel of the place and remarkable wedding musicians, for sure can get through with the vibes to expressively create sublime Christian music for the Tuazon-Crisologo Nuptials who love the romance it brings.
The bride walked from the spiral staircase trickled with white petals to the simple European brownish grey walled venue accenting a priceless big art frame, the largest I saw serving my memory. No garishness was observed enough to say that this was a transcendent wedding.
The bridal motif was formal and mostly were in their coat and tie and almost all female guests were in their resplendent gowns matching their sparkling jewelries. Taste was mirrored, if I can say for such an important occasion for Lesley and Maripaz who are truly in love and a promise was kept as they did their vows in the eyes of God.
The wedding reception program was informally hosted by friends who know them better, revealing some nice secrets to the amazement of some. There was no laborious program script for they were there to enjoy the moment as mastered by their hosts who kept up with time ready for a kingly dinner.
The world class music of the members of Augustine Music and Events added the splendor of the affair. Their music, at least tamed the guests as the night progressed because their program was aimed to keep their guests up and around. Most stayed until the wedding reception program was done, had some danceable music and a little drink.
I always treasure any event I was involved to, make some scribbles not to forget and do the best way possible to keep the memory because this too shall pass and having them posted (best way to treasure the memory) lingers.
