For every romantic relationship
that culminates with a church wedding, there is always a unique and endearing
love story behind it.
It always begins with the first meeting and leads to the
altar with the exchange of lifetime vows.
Here's one such story, well a side
story behind the frenetic yet very organized holiday wedding .
It all started
when I got a call from Hannah Mae
Carnice- Oppus, the groom's elder sister who asked me if I was available
to emcee the couple's wedding reception.
After I confirmed my availability, what followed was a series of emails. We
also relied heavily on FB, every Boholano's linkage with the rest of the world
connection. Finally, I had the chance to meet the couple.
That first meeting was quite revealing, so to speak. It was actually my first
time to really see and observe the betrothed really up close and personal. He
was the go- getter who exuded self- assuredness and quiet
confidence.
She, on the other hand, was quite
self - effacing. She was also a little bit nonchalant and never for a moment
did I see a hint of panic knowing that their big altar date was barely just two
weeks away.
Both however knew exactly what they
wanted to happen on their wedding day so by the time Supreme Weddings, the event
coordinator, called all suppliers for a final meeting with the couple,
everything went smoothly and every one was in high spirits
THE GROOM:
The groom is Engr. Fred Jedan T.
Carnice, son of Engr. Wilfredo L. &
the former Natividad Torralba of
Tagbilaran City. He obtained his college diploma at Silliman University,
Dumaguete City.
From a teary- eyed mom who spoke during the wedding reception,
we got a glimpse of the real Jedan. A very focused student, a doting &
dutiful son and the daring adventurer

BRIDE
There is always that
unmistakable radiance and glow that brides always seem to have on their most
special day and Verna Husain is
no exception.
She was a gorgeous and luminous vision with classic styling
reminiscent of a bygone era. Verna is a registered nurse and a daughter
of Mr. Perlito P. Mrs. Virgilia S.
Husain of Tagbilaran City, Bohol
 |
with Mama Virgie Husain and sisters Jessa and Leah
|
Both are based in Auckland,
New Zealand and came home for their marital union on December 23,
2012 at the Immaculate Conception
Church in Baclayon, Bohol and tendered a lavish wedding reception
for family and friends at the Verdant Pavilion, Panglao Island Nature Resort
(PINR) Dauis, Panglao, Bohol
It was a lovely wedding indeed worth retelling in videos and
pictures.

As dusk settles in, the newlyweds

the thought that there would always be the sunrise after the dark to look
forward to for the rest of their lives
