If Randomness is what you are looking for then this is the right place. From Games to Nail Colors, Clothes to Food Joint and random daily rants or thoughts
Well we all know that sometimes big events like this may be delayed. Don’t worry I did not lose weight while waiting haha. This by far is the most posh wedding I have ever been too. During the wait there were waiters serving torones (sorry not sure what they were) with I think mayo stuffing topped with caviar and others were serving drinks.

After the ceremony, there was a bit of free time again. The god parents table had name cards that was I think hand written by Sir Pao. Here is a photo.

It was the most luxurious dinner I have ever had here is the menu for that night
It was a six course dinner
Here are the list of beverages you can request for
Excuse the photos I did not have my camera
table setting
finger food on the table
Budino of Parmigiano-Reggiano Shard
The dish above was serve as soon as people started sitting down on their table, I wanted to eat it as soon as it was serve but I did not know if I can so I wait for the others to start. It turned out that there was still more to this dish the soup
Watercress, Balsamico Sciroppo
Sorry if it does not look good, yes I know I have ruined the presentation by eating the shard ahead, but I like it that way the cheese was good (yes that is bias as I love cheese). This was paired with Santa Rosa Chardonnay, Mendoza, Argentina, 2011
Field Greens, Baby Rucola, Rmaine, Strawberry, Edible flowers with Organic Duck
and drizzle with Citrus Vinaigette
Paired with Otoñal Rose "Grupo Olarra", Spain 2012 was a great contrast for the citrusnesso of the Vinaigette. I never knew that flower will be nice as part of the salad it added a wonderful shade to the greens
Spinach Raviolo, Mushroom Trifolati in Truffle cream topped with Prosciutto
This was my favorite, It was paired with Santa Rosa Chardonnay, Mendoza, Argentina, 2011. I'm a sucker for any cream based dish. This dish made me want another serving but of course that was not allowed. I'm not a foodie, I just love to eat and I will definite want to have this again.
Lemon-Basil Sgroppino
Sgroppino means Italian Cocktail, I liked this one as well. All thought this was a Cocktail I do not think that this had any alcohol in it. It was very refreshing to drink
Grilled US Rib Eye, Quinoa Pearl Bed Porcini Au Jus with Zucchine Fritters and Ginger Perfume
Steak was the main course, I'm not sure it it was done or medium rare as the inside was quite raw. I liked it. It was very tender and easy to cut. Now last and everyone's favorite part... Dessert
Almond-Crusted Mille-Feuille with Sweeet Strawberry Mascarpone Foam
on the side was Poached Strawberry, pears and Red Grape, Choco lava
Dessert was heaven with that Up Dharma Down started the party. Note to self If I do get married make sure to serve the alchol before telling people that they will give a toast from me and my husband. Bwahahaha
Moitie stands for half in French by the way. March 28 2015, I was able to attend a very
wonderful event. It was the union of a loving couple. I was invited to
MoitiesForevever by one of the god parent, Mama Sarah. Held at Two gardens, Tagaytay
it was said to start by 3pm. We were there earlier.
Here is one of the Groom with the god mother
With the next couple to tie the knot later this year
There is something so magical about this wedding, I have
never when teary eyed on a holy union before but this one is an exception. Everything
was just about love and the wish to be with that person you love, it felt so
perfect. I guess waiting for the right one to come will be worth this much.
The venue was enchanting it did not need much decoration;
the reception area was very classy (yes I did feel kinda out of place), the
altar was beautiful was well set up under a shade that was surrounded by plants
and creeping vines.
The Altar
It was a very candid and very light, I guess that is what
will happen if the couple as already accept that no matter what happens from
now on they know that the other with always support and love the other. The vow
that was made was simple sweet. I’m happy that I was able to witness it. Cheers to love and your happiness
