Majority of this blog was written during the end of 2015, then added on to during 2016, finally finished in 2017 hahahha. oh well. I have been itching to write a blog about my wedding ever since the day I got proposed to. If you're into reading about other people and their love story, you're in for a treat. Here is my wedding story with the proposal, the planning, the review of persons we hired, wedding party and the honeymoon. The Proposal One regular ol' Sunday afternoon in May of 2014, I had just gotten off my hectic morning shift from the restaurant, Mimi's Cafe , at the St. John's Town Center.

This blog however is neither for the bride nor the groom (I've got a blog for brides here ). This is for the friends or families who have accepted the invitation of being a part of the wedding party.
