We decided to drop by Don Bosco Church in Makati. When we saw the altar, we knew, This is it. The altar is magnificent. So without any second thoughts, we decided to pencil book January 25, 2014. Unfortunately, someone is already booked at 3 pm, so will be at 4 pm.
After reading the guidelines, we noticed na medyo strict din sila. Well, most of them naman are strict. Pero sa pictures, entourage lang daw.. E dba usually may mga family pic yun after the wedding. Pano kaya?
