Every wedding is unique and different. It is inevitable that sometimes the Churches & receptions may be the same, but the feeling is always new.

She was a different bride up to the point that she can be considered a rebellious bride. She had a fur on her wedding dress. She wasn’t even wearing the usual bridal shoes. She fascinatingly had boots under her wedding dress! Her wedding was beautiful because it was personal, and it was obvious that she was a happy bride.

Watch the SDE and be inspired with this one-of-a-kind bride!

Sophia and Ross found themselves standing in front of everyone in a garden filled with promises of love and dreams waiting to be fulfilled. She didn’t have the words to tell Ross how much she loved him, well, not too much of it. She had tears of sincerity and pure intentions.

It was 5pm at Hacienda Isabella, Tagaytay, just in time for their ceremony. Sophia and Ross were brave enough to have a garden wedding during the rainy months. The rain poured for a while but they only saw it as a blessing. Everybody was patient and calm as they knew that the rain will stop once the ceremony starts.

My favorite part was when Sophia entered the aisle surrounding her with butterflies. She seemed to be the perfect bride for a garden wedding. They looked too good together.

Do watch the last clip of this video to see how radiant Sophia was during her wedding day!

Mary Ann and Danween’s wedding happened last May 12, 2012 at St. Joseph’s Cathedral in Bohol. Mary Ann and Danween are both based in the U.S., but just like every couple who values the presence of family members on their wedding day, they decided to celebrate it here in the Philippines.

The couple was overwhelmed with the presence of all their friends from the States, Manila, Cebu,Australia, Cagayan de Oro, and everyone who flew all the way to their wedding. Because of this I realized that this occasion was truly rare, as it was one of the few times in their lives where all their friends and family get together for their special day. All of us at the For You Are Mine team are grateful to be part of it.

Bohol was beautiful. The beach was beautiful. The bride was beautiful! Do watch the Same Day Edit!

I have a lot of favorite Same Day Edits, but this one is exceptional. The finest Same Day Edit’s are those that let the viewers experience an emotion that was once forgotten, or maybe something that you want to experience even without one’s presence.

It’s being with a very familiar face in a foreign country.
It’s being lost and not minding to be found.
It’s experiencing new things & having fun with the face you know so well.
It’s kissing each other behind the city lights, enjoying the stroll around the wet streets of Hong Kong, Shanghai, just about everywhere.
Angela and Eric wanted all of these to be documented by For You Are Mine.

Angela and Eric’s SDE is the perfect example for this. I was not part of their wedding shoot, but this video made me want to be there. The best part is, it made me remember how good it is to love again.

Backstory on Cristine and Jay(so you won’t wonder why they all had the British accent!):
It was in a cotillion of their friend that they met. Jay knew from the very first day that Cristine is the one. They both grew up in London, but they decided to tie the knot in Pampanga for the relatives to witness their wedding day.

I hate to admit this, but this was another stranger’s wedding that I cried my heart out. I only knew Cristine and Jay during the client meeting but during the wedding itself, it felt like I was part of the whole thing. Maybe it’s because I really felt the sincerity of their happiness on their wedding day.

The only person you can choose to be part of your life forever is the person you’re going to marry. Jay decided to marry Cristine.

While everyone was staring at how beautiful Cristine was, I was there looking at Jay’s reaction. Being a witness, I can tell you that it was my first time to see a groom walking towards the bride while she’s almost near the altar because maybe he couldn’t wait! I think the groom cried more than the bride did, of course it was a good cry.

To everyone who believes in love, do watch the SDE!

Who wouldn’t look forward to their own wedding day if it’s going to happen at Thunderbird, La Union.

One of the most beautiful resorts in La Union, Thunderbird exhausts the breath of the attendees. Structures, painted in its whitewashed walls and hints of sky-blue dome, just near the beach area providing a Santorini experience to everyone.

For Tep, maybe the venue is just a plus because the real deal is going to be his very own bride, Valen.

As our shooters entered the bride’s room, they were witnesses of Tep’s simple acts of love in forms of notes posted in the bride’s mirror. Truly, simple words show deep expressions of love.

Romance filled the air as they exchanged vows against the backdrop of a stunning purple sunset.

See the SDE and fill your curiosity on Tep’s love notes to Valen!
