IKAKASAL NA KAMI!!! Eto na ‘yun! Sa wakas!!! But first, prenup. Sabi nila, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Sabi namin, when life gives you a limited budget, walang pang-airfare, walang pang-hotel, walang pang-visa, walang pang-Ethiopia, Morocco or Europe, make a prenup shoot sa DIVISORIA!!! And that is just what we did! Minsan kaming umikot sa Ilaya para mamili ng kurtina. Pag-pasok namin sa tindahan, ang daming nakadisplay nakurtina, iba’t ibang kulay, iba’t ibang texture, para kang nasabahay ng Prinsipe ng Morocco (kung may prinsipe man sa kanila!) At yun na, nasabi ko sa sarili ko, “Dito na kami magpi-prenup!” At talaga namang di kami nagpaawat! Agad namin kinausap ang may-ari at pumayag naman. Venue, check!
